Adipose tissue provides a defense against starvation and environmental cold. These dichotomous functions are performed by three distinct cell types: energy-storing white adipocytes, and thermogenic beige and brown adipocytes. Previous studies have demonstrated that exposure to environmental cold stimulates the recruitment of beige adipocytes in the white adipose tissue (WAT) of mice and humans, a process that has been extensively investigated.

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) features translocations linking c-myc to the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) locus. By inserting a c-myc gene under the control of the 3'IgH locus control region (LCR) into the mouse genome, we generated c-myc-3'LCR mice that develop clonal BL or diffuse anaplastic lymphoma. We show in the present study that while BL from c-myc-3'LCR mice would be classified as pre-germinal center (GC) cells due to the absence of both BCL-6 expression and somatic hypermutation (SHM) in V(H) sequences, they show a high level of SHM focused on the c-myc oncogene itself.
