The nuclear receptor HNF4 drives a brush border gene program conserved across murine intestine, kidney, and embryonic yolk sac

Lei Chen et al.

Summary: The brush border is a specialized structure on the apical surface of epithelia that greatly increases absorptive surface area, but the transcriptional regulatory networks controlling brush border genes are not fully understood. This study identifies HNF4 as a conserved regulator of the brush border gene program in multiple organs, such as intestine, kidney, and yolk sac, and reveals its role in chromatin looping between promoters and enhancers in the intestine.

Adipocyte iron levels impinge on a fat-gut crosstalk to regulate intestinal lipid absorption and mediate protection from obesity

Zhuzhen Zhang et al.

Summary: The role of iron in adipocytes plays an important role in maintaining systemic metabolism by regulating caloric influx through the adipocyte-enterocyte axis. Iron levels in adipose tissue can impact lipid absorption from the intestine and provide a protective effect against metabolic disorders induced by high-fat diets.

PEGylated AdipoRon derivatives improve glucose and lipid metabolism under insulinopenic and high-fat diet conditions

Toshiharu Onodera et al.

Summary: This study investigates the protective effects of AdipoRon and its analogs, particularly AdipoRonPEG5, in pancreatic beta-cells and demonstrates their potential in reducing ceramide levels and improving insulin sensitivity in mice under high-fat diet conditions. The results suggest that AdipoRonPEG5 is more effective than AdipoRon, and further derivatization may enhance its affinity and tissue-specific targeting.

Multi-omics profiling of living human pancreatic islet donors reveals heterogeneous beta cell trajectories towards type 2 diabetes

Leonore Wigger et al.

Summary: Researchers conducted a multidimensional analysis of pancreatic islets obtained from metabolically profiled living human donors who had undergone pancreatectomy, revealing significant heterogeneity in samples from individuals with type 2 diabetes. The findings challenge current hypotheses of linear beta-cell dedifferentiation in diabetes and suggest a progressive, but disharmonic, remodelling of mature beta cells. Integration of islet transcriptomics with preoperative blood plasma lipidomics also identified potential prognostic markers associated with HbA1c levels.
