Article Synopsis
- Adipokines are important for the thermogenesis (heat production) in beige fat cells, but the specific processes are still unclear.* ! -
- This study reveals that signaling between VEGFB and VEGFR1 enhances thermogenesis in white adipose tissue (WAT), with VEGFB increasing in fat cells and VEGFR1 in macrophages when thermogenesis is activated.* ! -
- Removing VEGFB from fat cells reduces browning in WAT, while adding VEGFB boosts thermogenesis, but this effect is negated if VEGFR1 in macrophages is knocked out; the study also shows how VEGFB influences signaling pathways to promote norepinephrine clearance in macrophages.* !
