Tissue factor-protease-activated receptor 2 signaling promotes diet-induced obesity and adipose inflammation. Leylla Badeanlou, Christian Furlan-Freguia, Guang Yang, Wolfram Ruf and Fahumiya Samad.
Fahumiya Samad and her colleagues have shown that the serine protease tissue factor, a key regulator of coagulation, has a role in obesity and metabolic disease. They find that tissue factor signaling in adipocytes promotes obesity, whereas its signaling in adipose tissue macrophages promotes local inflammation and insulin resistance.
