In response to a wide range of stimulations, host cells activate pyroptosis, a kind of
inflammatory cell death which is provoked by the cytosolic sensing of danger signals and …

The important role of mitochondria in the regulation of white adipose tissue (WAT)
remodeling and energy balance is increasingly appreciated. The remarkable heterogeneity …

Pyroptosis is a novel pro-inflammatory cell programmed death dependent on Gasdermin
(GSMD) family-mediated membrane pore formation and subsequent cell lysis, accompanied …

Adipose tissues, including white, beige, and brown adipose tissue, have evolved to be
highly dynamic organs. Adipose tissues undergo profound changes during development …

The safe removal of apoptotic debris by macrophages—often referred to as efferocytosis—is
crucial for maintaining tissue integrity and preventing self-immunity or tissue damaging …

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are a group of signaling molecules that belong to the
TGF-β superfamily. Initially discovered for their ability to induce bone formation, BMPs are …

The adipose organ is involved in many metabolic functions, ranging from the production of
endocrine factors to the regulation of thermogenic processes. Aging is a natural process that …

Aging, chronic high-fat diet feeding, or housing at thermoneutrality induces brown adipose
tissue (BAT) involution, a process characterized by reduction of BAT mass and function with …

Cancer-associated necrosis is a well-known source of cell-free DNA (cfDNA). However, the
origins of cfDNA are not strictly limited to cancer. Additionally, dietary exposure induces …

Background Obesity and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are prevailing
worldwide, bringing a heavy medical burden. Clinical and pathophysiological relationship …
