Adipocyte Xbp1s overexpression drives uridine production and reduces obesity
Objective: The spliced transcription factor Xbp1 (Xbp1s), a transducer of the unfolded protein response (UPR), regulates lipolysis. Lipolysis is stimulated by fasting when uridine synthesis is also activated in adipocytes. Methods: Here we have examined the regulatory role Xbp1s in stimulation of ur...
