Lipid droplets (LDs) are multi-functional cellular organelles that store energy, and regulate
many aspects of cell physiology. However, our understanding of the biogenesis of LDs …

The formation of adipocytes from precursor stem cells involves a complex and highly
orchestrated programme of gene expression. Our understanding of the basic network of …

Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a critical phospholipid constituent in eukaryotic cell membranes,
which accounts for 1À4% of the total lipid. 1 This lipophilic glycerophospholipid has a …

Lactic acid bacteria fermentation is a commonly applied technique to produce nutritional,
functional, and organoleptic enhanced foods. In the present study, protein hydrolysis and …

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to a family of ligand-activated
nuclear receptors that includes the estrogen, thyroid hormone, and glucocorticoid receptors …

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are hormone-sensing transcription factors that translate dietary or
endocrine signals into changes in gene expression. Therefore, the adoption of orphan NRs …

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and the retinoid X receptors
(RXRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors that coordinately regulate gene expression …

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1‐radyl‐2‐hydroxy‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphate) is the prototype
member of a family of lipid mediators and second messengers. LPA and its naturally …

Bacterial pneumonia is a significant healthcare burden worldwide. Failure to resolve
inflammation after infection precipitates lung injury and an increase in morbidity and …

Obesity is a global health problem characterized as an increase in the mass of adipose
tissue. Adipogenesis is one of the key pathways that increases the mass of adipose tissue …
