Staying Current PGC-1 : a key regulator of energy metabolism
Liang, Huiyun, and Walter F. Ward. PGC-1 : a key regulator of energy metabolism. Adv Physiol Educ 30: 145–151, 2006; doi: 10.1152/advan.00052.2006.—Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorcoactivator (PGC)-1 is a member of a family of transcription coactivators that plays a central role in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism. It is strongly induced by cold exposure, linking this envi...
متن کاملGrb10 promotes lipolysis and thermogenesis by phosphorylation-dependent feedback inhibition of mTORC1.
Identification of key regulators of lipid metabolism and thermogenic functions has important therapeutic implications for the current obesity and diabetes epidemic. Here, we show that Grb10, a direct substrate of mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), is expressed highly in brown adipose tissue, and its expression in white adipose tissue is markedly induced by cold exposure. In adipo...
متن کاملبررسی نقش ارکسین A در دوره بارداری و شیردهی و سندرم مرگ ناگهانی نوزاد: مروری سیستماتیک
Background and Objectives: Adipose tissue plays a role in releasing hormones including orexin, that regulates energy metabolism, nutrition, body weight, control system, autonomic, sleep, insulin sensitivity, breathing, drug addiction ,and reproductive axis. The pregnancy is associated with a series of metabolic changes that provide energy and nutrients for mother and fetus. Orexin increases ins...
متن کاملWhole body overexpression of PGC-1alpha has opposite effects on hepatic and muscle insulin sensitivity.
Type 2 diabetes is characterized by fasting hyperglycemia, secondary to hepatic insulin resistance and increased glucose production. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1alpha) is a transcriptional coactivator that is thought to control adaptive responses to physiological stimuli. In liver, PGC-1alpha expression is induced by fasting, and this effect promote...
متن کاملAMP-activated protein kinase, super metabolic regulator.
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a metabolic-stress-sensing protein kinase that regulates metabolism in response to energy demand and supply by directly phosphorylating rate-limiting enzymes in metabolic pathways as well as controlling gene expression.
