Subcutaneous white adipose tissue can be induced to undergo "browning" and acquire thermogenic capacity in response to physiological stimuli such as cold exposure or exercise. In this issue of Cell, Qiu et al. and Rao et al. demonstrate that pink-staining eosinophils and alternatively activated macrophages play key roles in an immune cascade mediating this metabolic switch.

Introduction: Physical inactivity due to shortness of breath is common among patients with uncontrolled asthma. We evaluated the body mass composition and exercise capacity of patients with poorly controlled asthma, despite maximal inhalation therapy.
Methods: We recruited 56 patients from the Asthma Clinic of the University Hospital of Liège between September 2020 and December 2023, and 14 healthy subjects.

Ongoing innovation in diabetes technologies has led to the development of advanced tools such as automated insulin delivery (AID) systems that adjust insulin delivery in response to current and predicted glucose levels, residual insulin action, and other inputs (eg, meal and exercise announcements). However, infusion sets continue to be the "Achilles heel" of accurate and precise insulin delivery and continued device use. A recent study by Kalus et al (DERMIS Study) revealed higher vessel density and signals of inflammation by optical coherence tomography (OCT), in addition to increased inflammation, fat necrosis, fibrosis, and eosinophilic infiltration by histopathology.

The experiment mainly focused on the liver of the hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus ♀ × E. lanceolatus ♂) with low methionine levels by single-cell RNA-seq under high-lipid diets. Both weight gain rate (WGR) and specific growth rate (SGR) in the MR group were obviously lower than the C group, and the intraperitoneal fat (IPF) in the MR group was obviously enhanced than HL and C groups, which led to more visible growth inhibition and lipid deposition.

Article Synopsis
- * The study focuses on S. subcrenatum polysaccharide (TGP), which has been shown to help regulate NAFLD in mice, yet the exact mechanisms, particularly the role of gut microbiota, are not fully understood.
- * Results indicate that TGP increases levels of the beneficial bacterium Lactobacillus johnsonii in the gut, which helps alleviate NAFLD by improving lipid metabolism and reducing liver fat accumulation.
