Interesting mechanistic study in Nature Metabolism showing that macrophages in brown adipose tissue release itaconate to suppress succinate uptake and in turn thermogenesis in brown adipocytes: www.nature.com/artic... 🧪
nature.comMacrophage-derived itaconate is a negative regulator of adipose tissue thermogenesisNature Metabolism - Tang et al. reveal that macrophage-derived itaconate acts as a paracrine inhibitor of adipose tissue thermogenesis by blocking succinate uptake into brown adipose tissue.
