Identification of novel genes involved in the plasticity of pituitary melanotropes in amphibians
(New York Academy os Sciences, 2009)
Melanotrope cells from the amphibian intermediate lobe are composed of two subpopulations that exhibit opposite secretory behavior: hypersecretory and hormone-storage hyposecretory melanotropes. Isolation of these ...
Journal article resistin regulates pituitary somatotrope cell function through the activation of multiple signaling pathways
(Endocrine Society, 2009)
The adipokine resistin is an insulin-antagonizing factor that also plays a regulatory role in inflammation, immunity, food intake, and gonadal function. Although adipose tissue is the primary source of resistin, it is also ...
Proteomic profiling of adipose tissue from Zmpste24(-/-) Mice, a model of Lipodystrophy and premature aging, reveals major changes in mitochondrial function and vimentin processing
(Science Direct, 2011)
Lipodystrophy is a major disease involving severe alterations of adipose tissue distribution and metabolism. Mutations in genes encoding the nuclear envelope protein lamin A or its processing enzyme, the metalloproteinase ...
Association between Diet Quality and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease: Findings from the CORDIOPREV Study
(MDPI, 2024)
The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is growing in Western countries. Nutritional interventions that promote high-quality dietary patterns could help reverse this trend. We aimed to evaluate whether changes in ...
Rab18 dynamics in adipocytes in relation to lipogenesis, lipolysis and obesity
(PLOS, 2011)
Lipid droplets (LDs) are organelles that coordinate lipid storage and mobilization, both processes being especially important in cells specialized in managing fat, the adipocytes. Proteomic analyses of LDs have consistently ...
