To read the full abstract: Thyroid. 2019;29:480–492.The thyroid axis is particularly responsive to critical illness. Adaptation processes of the thyroid axis to critical illness and prolonged fasting are well described as non-thyroidal illness syndrome. Non-thyroidal illness is mainly explained by two mechanisms: 1) peripheral inactivation of T4 to rT3 by decreased type-1 deiodinase...

Brief summary: Emont et al. created a cell atlas of human and mouse white adipose tissue, which goes a long way in informing our understanding of the complexity of adipose tissue.Although adipocytes make up the largest proportion of adipose tissue volume, the cellular structure of adipose tissue is far more complex and includes adipose tissue progenitor cells (APCs), fibroblasts, vascular cells and immune cells. We are also beginning to understa...
