TGF-β/Smad3 Signaling Regulates Brown Adipocyte Induction in White Adipose Tissue
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Recent identification of active brown fat reserves in adult humans has re-stimulated interest in the role of brown adipocytes in energy homeostasis. In addition, there is accumulating evidence to support the concept of an alteration in energy balance through acquisition of brown fat features in traditional white fat depots. We recently described an important role played by the TGF-β/Smad3 signaling pathway in...
