Adipocyte mTORC1 deficiency promotes adipose tissue inflammation and NLRP3 inflammasome activation via oxidative stress and de novo ceramide synthesis[S]

Mechanistic target of rapamycin complex (mTORC)1 activity is increased in adipose tissue of obese insulin-resistant mice, but its role in the regulation of tissue inflammation is unknown. Herein, we investigated the effects of adipocyte mTORC1 deficiency on adipose tissue inflammation and glucose ho...
