An Examination of Brown Adipose Tissue and Energy Expenditure in Infants
Excess fetal adipose tissue growth during intrauterine development increases future obesity risk. Development of brown adipose tissue, a highly thermogenic organ in utero, may affect postnatal energy expenditure, thus influencing obesity risk. This research study is designed to understand the developmental origins of energy balance by examining maternal and neonatal …
Burosumab and 1-25 (OH) Vitamin D on Human Osteoblasts
FGF23 is the cornerstone of phosphate / calcium / vitamin D metabolism: it is synthesized mainly by osteocytes and acts as a phosphaturizing agent, inhibitor of dihydroxyvitamin D, and inhibitor of synthesis and secretion of PTH in most tissues. The specific role of FGF23 on bone has yet to be …
