Activation of thermogenic adipocytes is a strategy to combat metabolic diseases. Here the authors report that GPR180 is a component of TGFβ signalling that promotes thermogenic adipocyte function and mediates the metabolic effects of the adipocyte-secreted factor CTHRC1, and contributes to the regulation of glucose and energy metabolism.
