This study investigates the role of neuronal and hepatic ketone metabolism in cognitive enhancement from exercise and time-restricted feeding in mice, finding neuronal utilization is essential while hepatic production is contributory.

This study shows that liver-specific HMGCS2 knockout reduces exercise-induced energy expenditure and alters mitochondrial proteins in skeletal muscle.

This study examines how a high-fat, high-sucrose, and high-salt diet affects metabolic outcomes in mice, finding increased gonadal fat and glucose intolerance despite reduced inflammation.

This study shows that estrogen receptor α in hepatocytes is necessary for estrogen to enhance mitochondrial respiration and reduce steatosis after ovariectomy.

This study uses non-contrast microCT to analyze obese adipose tissue in mice exposed to cold, revealing sex-specific thermogenic adipose formation and metabolic changes.

This study uses a VCD-induced menopause mouse model to show that ovarian loss disrupts hepatic mitochondrial function and lipid homeostasis, increasing susceptibility to diet-induced obesity and steatosis.
