Subcutaneous white adipose tissue independently regulates burn-induced hypermetabolism via immune-adipose crosstalk
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Severe burns induce a chronic hypermetabolic state that persists well past wound closure, indicating that additional internal mechanisms must be involved. Adipose tissue is suggested to be a central regulator in perpetuating hypermetabolism, although this has not been directly tested. Here, we show that thermogenic adipose tissues are activated in parallel to increases in hypermetabolism independent of cold stress. Using an adipose tissue transplantation model, we discover that burn-derived subcutaneous white adipose tissue alone is sufficient to invoke a hypermetabolic response in a healthy recipient mouse. Concomitantly, transplantation of healthy adipose tissue alleviates metabolic dysfunction in a burn recipient. We further show that the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor signaling pathway may mediate an immune-adipose crosstalk to regulate adipose tissue remodeling post-injury. Targeting this pathway could lead to innovative therapeutic interventions to counteract hypermetabolic pathologies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
