Perugini J, Smorlesi A, Acciarini S, Mondini E, Colleluori G, Pirazzini C, et al.
Cells . 2024 Jun; 13(11. PMID: 38891075
Subcutaneous adipocytes are crucial for mammary gland epithelial development during pregnancy. Our and others' previous data have suggested that adipo-epithelial transdifferentiation could play a key role in the mammary gland...

Efremova A, Senzacqua M, Venema W, Isakov E, Di Vincenzo A, Zingaretti M, et al.
J Physiol Biochem . 2019 Dec; 76(2):185-192. PMID: 31853729
Many deleterious consequences for health of excessive fat accumulation are due to visceral fat. Browning of visceral fat is mainly cold dependent and has been proposed as a possible tool...

Cangiotti A, Lorenzi T, Zingaretti M, Fabri M, Morroni M
Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2017 Dec; 301(5):922-931. PMID: 29266784
The morphology of the kidney macula densa (MD) has extensively been investigated in animals, whereas human studies are scanty. We studied the fine structure of human MD cells focusing on...

Maurizi G, Poloni A, Mattiucci D, Santi S, Maurizi A, Izzi V, et al.
J Cell Physiol . 2016 Dec; 232(10):2887-2899. PMID: 27987321
White adipocytes are plastic cells able to reversibly transdifferentiate into brown adipocytes and into epithelial glandular cells under physiologic stimuli in vivo. These plastic properties could be used in future...

Poloni A, Maurizi G, Serrani F, Mancini S, Zingaretti M, Frontini A, et al.
Exp Hematol . 2013 Feb; 41(6):558-566.e2. PMID: 23435314
Adipocytes are a cell population largely located in the human bone marrow cavity. In this specific microenvironment where adipocytes can interact with a variety of different cells, the role of...

Tran K, Gealekman O, Frontini A, Zingaretti M, Morroni M, Giordano A, et al.
Cell Metab . 2012 Feb; 15(2):222-9. PMID: 22326223
Adipose tissue expansion involves the enlargement of existing adipocytes, the formation of new cells from committed preadipocytes, and the coordinated development of the tissue vascular network. Here we find that...

Bostrom P, Wu J, Jedrychowski M, Korde A, Ye L, Lo J, et al.
Nature . 2012 Jan; 481(7382):463-8. PMID: 22237023
Exercise benefits a variety of organ systems in mammals, and some of the best-recognized effects of exercise on muscle are mediated by the transcriptional co-activator PPAR-γ co-activator-1 α (PGC1-α). Here...

FASEB J . 2009 May; 23(9):3113-20. PMID: 19417078
Classically, adult humans have been considered not to possess active brown adipose tissue (BAT). However, positron-emission-tomography has shown fluorodeoxyglucose uptake that is distributed in such a way (e.g., in the...

J Nutr Biochem . 2007 Jul; 19(5):295-304. PMID: 17651958
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that people who eat more fruits and vegetables (rich in carotenoids) and people who have higher serum beta-carotene (BC) levels have a lower risk of cancer,...

Murano I, Morroni M, Zingaretti M, Oliver P, Sanchez J, Fuster A, et al.
Biochim Biophys Acta . 2005 May; 1740(2):305-12. PMID: 15893457
Adipose tissue is an important retinoid depot and retinoids are known to influence white and brown adipocyte metabolism. Identifying nutrients that can affect the biological activity of the adipose organ...
