    Reduced adipocyte glutaminase activity promotes energy expenditure and metabolic health

    Glutamine and glutamate are interconverted by several enzymes and alterations in this metabolic cycle are linked to cardiometabolic traits. Herein, we show that obesity-associated insulin resistance is charact...

    An integrated single cell and spatial transcriptomic map of human white adipose tissue

    To date, single-cell studies of human white adipose tissue (WAT) have been based on small cohort sizes and no cellular consensus nomenclature exists. Herein, we performed a comprehensive meta-analysis of publi...

    The long noncoding RNA ADIPINT regulates human adipocyte metabolism via pyruvate carboxylase

    The pleiotropic function of long noncoding RNAs is well recognized, but their direct role in governing metabolic homeostasis is less understood. Here, we describe a human adipocyte-specific lncRNA, ADIPINT, th...
