(C) Wound healing assays were performed to detect the chemotaxis effects of CXCL2, CXCL13, and CXCL16 on DPCs and DSCs (concentrations are the same as in B) (n = 3). One-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test. Data reported as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.

Article Title: CXCL13 promotes thermogenesis in mice via recruitment of M2 macrophage and inhibition of inflammation in brown adipose tissue

doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1253766

Figure Lengend Snippet: Proposed model of cold elevated CXCL13 expression in thermogenesis of brown adipose tissue in mice. Cold exposure induces elevation of CXCL13 in the adipose tissue stromal cell (ASC) of SVF. CXCL13 can promote brown adipocyte thermogenesis by inducing M2 macrophage activation and marker gene ( Arg1 , Clec10a , Mrc1 ) expression, and promoting cellular migration. CXCL13 can also suppress inflammation by down-regulating TNFα expression in M1 macrophages. The upward arrows represent up-regulation and the downward arrows represent down-regulation.
