Inflammasome-driven catecholamine catabolism in macrophages blunts lipolysis during ageing
Christina Camell,Jil Sander,Olga Spadaro,Aileen Lee,Kim Y. Nguyen,Allison Wing,Emily L. Goldberg,Yun-Hee Youm,Chester W. Brown,John D. Elsworth,Matthew S. Rodeheffer,Joachim L. Schultze,Joachim L. Schultze,Vishwa Deep Dixit +13 more
TL;DR: This study reveals that targeting neuro-immunometabolic signalling between the sympathetic nervous system and macrophages may offer new approaches to mitigate chronic inflammation-induced metabolic impairment and functional decline.
Membrane configuration optimization for a murine in vitro blood-brain barrier model.
TL;DR: This work presents for the first time in literature a comprehensive screening study to optimize membrane configuration, with aims to unveil influential membrane effects on the ability of cerebral endothelial cells to form a tight monolayer.

Genetic Ablation of miR-33 Increases Food Intake, Enhances Adipose Tissue Expansion, and Promotes Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Nathan L. Price,Abhishek Singh,Noemi Rotllan,Leigh Goedeke,Allison Wing,Alberto Canfrán-Duque,Alberto Diaz-Ruiz,Elisa Araldi,Ángel Baldán,Joao Paulo Camporez,Yajaira Suárez,Matthew S. Rodeheffer,Gerald I. Shulman,Rafael de Cabo,Carlos Fernández-Hernando +14 more
TL;DR: This work provides an in-depth characterization of miR-33−/− mice and explores the mechanisms by which loss of mi R-33 promotes insulin resistance in key metabolic tissues, and demonstrates that the driving force behind these abnormalities is increased food intake, which can be prevented by pair feeding with wild-type animals.
The Adipose Tissue Microenvironment Regulates Depot-Specific Adipogenesis in Obesity
Elise Jeffery,Allison Wing,Brandon Holtrup,Zachary L Sebo,Jennifer L. Kaplan,Rocio Saavedra-Peña,Christopher D. Church,Laura Colman,Ryan Berry,Matthew S. Rodeheffer +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that adipocyte hyperplasia contributes directly to the differential fat distribution between the sexes and that the activation of adipocyte precursors (APs) is regulated by the adipose depot microenvironment and not by cell-intrinsic mechanisms.
