This study shows that maternal exercise during lactation improves milk fatty acid composition and enhances offspring energy expenditure in obese dams.

This study shows that early-life exposure to high omega-6 fatty acids impairs adipocyte mitochondrial oxidation by suppressing NR2F2, which can be reversed by reactivating NR2F2 in stem-like cells.

This study shows that deleting melanocortin-4 receptors on hypothalamic astrocytes increases body weight, feeding, and central inflammation, independent of neuronal MC4R effects.
