Male house mice excrete large amounts of protein in their urinary scent marks, mainly
composed of Major Urinary Proteins (MUPs), and these lipocalins function as pheromones …

Lipocalins (LCNs) are members of a family of evolutionarily conserved genes present in all
kingdoms of life. There are 19 LCN-like genes in the human genome, and 45 Lcn-like genes …

Exercise training improves whole-body glucose homeostasis through effects largely
attributed to adaptations in skeletal muscle; however, training also affects other tissues …

Potential predators emit uncharacterized chemosignals that warn receiving species of
danger. Neurons that sense these stimuli remain unknown. Here we show that detection and …

Plasma high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) levels show a strong inverse correlation with
atherosclerotic vascular disease. Previous studies have demonstrated that antagonism of …

Poor maternal diet can lead to metabolic disease in offspring, whereas maternal exercise
may have beneficial effects on offspring health. In this study, we determined ifmaternal …

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone protein glucose‐regulated protein 78
(GRP78)/binding immunoglobulin protein is a master regulator of ER homeostasis and …

Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the sole lysosomal enzyme responsible for the degradation
of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols at acidic pH. Impaired LAL activity leads to LAL …

Kaempferol has been confirmed to be effective in improving metabolic diseases such as
diabetes and obesity. However, its effect and mechanism in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis …

Follistatin (Fst) functions to bind and neutralize the activity of members of the transforming
growth factor-β superfamily. Fst has a well-established role in skeletal muscle, but we …
