4-Methylumbelliferone improves the thermogenic capacity of brown adipose tissue.
Therapeutic increase of brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis is of great interest as BAT activation counteracts obesity and insulin resistance. Hyaluronan (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan, found in the extracellular matrix, which is synthesized by HA synthases (Has1/Has2/Has3) from sugar precursors and accumulates in diabetic conditions. Its synthesis can be inhibited by the small molecule 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU). Here, we show that the inhibition of HA-synthesis by 4-MU or genetic deletion of Topics: Adipose Tissue, Brown; Animals; Energy Metabolism; Hymecromone; Insulin Resistance; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Thermogenesis | 2019 |
