This study identifies exosome trafficking as a key regulator of beige adipocyte thermogenesis, showing that exosome release enhances thermogenic output and energy expenditure.

This study finds that men exposed to trauma have elevated sperm miRNAs linked to anxiety and depression in offspring, though not all trauma-exposed men show increased anxiety or depression themselves.

This study shows that miR-27a and miR-27b regulate adipose thermogenesis and metabolism, with their combined loss enhancing thermogenic activity and metabolic health.

This study shows that chronic stress in male mice reduces sperm miR-34c levels through astrocyte-derived exosomes, leading to transgenerational anxiety and reduced sociability in offspring.

This study identifies the cellular origins of perivascular adipose tissue using single-cell transcriptomics, fate mapping, and adipogenesis assays, revealing fibroblastic and smooth muscle progenitors.
