Estrogen receptor inhibition enhances cold-induced adipocyte beiging and glucose sensitivity
2017-12-06
Abstract excerpt
Low estrogen states, exemplified by postmenopausal women, are associated with increased adiposity and metabolic dysfunction. We recently reported a paradox, in which a conditional estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) mutant mouse shows a hyper-metabolic phenotype with enhanced brown/beige cell formation (“browning/beiging”). These observations led us to consider that although systemic deficiency of estrogen or ERα in mic...
