Activation of Protein Kinase A and Exchange Protein Directly Activated by cAMP Promotes Adipocyte Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Jia, Bingbing; Madsen, Lise; Petersen, Rasmus Koefoed; Techer, Nathalie; Kopperud, Reidun Kristin; Ma, Tao; Døskeland, Stein Ove; Ailhaud, Gérard; Wang, Jinfu; Amri, Ez-Zoubir; Kristiansen, Karsten (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03-27)Human mesenchymal stem cells are primary multipotent cells capable of differentiating into several cell types including adipocytes when cultured under defined in vitro conditions. In the present study we investigated the ... -
Effects of Frozen Storage on Phospholipid Content in Atlantic Cod Fillets and the Influence on Diet-Induced Obesity in Mice
Fauske, Kristin Røen; Bernhard, Annette; Fjære, Even; Myrmel, Lene Secher; Frøyland, Livar; Kristiansen, Karsten; Liaset, Bjørn; Madsen, Lise (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-05-30)A large fraction of the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in cod fillet is present in the form of phospholipids (PLs). Freezing initiates hydrolysis of the PLs present in the fillet. Here, we compared the effects of ... -
The impact of different animal-derived protein sources on adiposity and glucose homeostasis during ad libitum feeding and energy restriction in already obese mice
Myrmel, Lene Secher; Fauske, Kristin Røen; Fjære, Even; Bernhard, Annette; Liisberg, Ulrike; Hasselberg, Astrid Elise; Øyen, Jannike; Kristiansen, Karsten; Madsen, Lise (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-23)Low-fat diets and energy restriction are recommended to prevent obesity and to induce weight loss, but high-protein diets are popular alternatives. However, the importance of the protein source in obesity prevention and ... -
UCP1 induction during recruitment of Brown Adipocytes in White Adipose tissue is dependent on Cyclooxygenase activity
Madsen, Lise; Pedersen, Lone M.; Lillefosse, Haldis Haukaas; Fjære, Even; Brønstad, Ingeborg; Hao, Qin; Petersen, Rasmus Koefoed; Hallenborg, Philip; Ma, Tao; De Matteis, Rita; Araujo, Pedro; Mercader, Josep; Bonet, M. Luisa; Hansen, Jacob B.; Cannon, Barbara; Nedergaard, Jan; Wang, Jun; Cinti, Saverio; Voshol, Peter; Døskeland, Stein Ove; Kristiansen, Karsten (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-06-30)Background The uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is a hallmark of brown adipocytes and pivotal for cold- and diet-induced thermogenesis. Methodology/Principal Findings Here we report that cyclooxygenase (COX) activity and ...
