Análisis del sector exterior en Méjico

La creciente apertura comercial experimentada por México en los últimos años le ha posicionado entre uno de las economías con mayor proyección en cuanto a comercio exterior se refiere. La firma de tratados comerciales se ha convertido en una estrategia para impulsar a la economía y dotar al país de herramientas que le permitan ser una potencia económica independiente. En este trabajo se va a analizar el sector exterior mediante la descomposición de los saldos de la balanza de pagos a lo largo del tiempo para intentar determinar las causas del pobre crecimiento experimentado por México. Además, se va a descomponer el PIB por el método del gasto presentando especial atención a la evolución de las exportaciones netas. Asimismo, se pretende analizar la influencia que la economía estadounidense ejerce en la economía mexicana ya sea de manera positiva o negativa

Maresin 1 activates brown adipose tissue and promotes browning of white adipose tissue in mice

Objective Maresin 1 (MaR1) is a docosahexaenoic acid-derived proresolving lipid mediator with insulin-sensitizing and anti-steatosis properties. Here, we aim to unravel MaR1 actions on brown adipose tissue (BAT) activation and white adipose tissue (WAT) browning. Methods MaR1 actions were tested in cultured murine brown adipocytes and in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC)-derived adipocytes. In vivo effects of MaR1 were tested in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice and lean WT and Il6 knockout (Il6−/−) mice. Results In cultured differentiated murine brown adipocytes, MaR1 reduces the expression of inflammatory genes, while stimulates glucose uptake, fatty acid utilization and oxygen consumption rate, along with the upregulation of mitochondrial mass and genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and function and the thermogenic program. In Leucine Rich Repeat Containing G Protein-Coupled Receptor 6 (LGR6)-depleted brown adipocytes using siRNA, the stimulatory effect of MaR1 on thermogenic genes was abrogated. In DIO mice, MaR1 promotes BAT remodeling, characterized by higher expression of genes encoding for master regulators of mitochondrial biogenesis and function and iBAT thermogenic activation, together with increased M2 macrophage markers. In addition, MaR1-treated DIO mice exhibit a better response to cold-induced BAT activation. Moreover, MaR1 induces a beige adipocyte signature in inguinal WAT of DIO mice and in hMSC-derived adipocytes. MaR1 potentiates Il6 expression in brown adipocytes and BAT of cold exposed lean WT mice. Interestingly, the thermogenic properties of MaR1 were abrogated in Il6−/− mice. Conclusions These data reveal MaR1 as a novel agent that promotes BAT activation and WAT browning by regulating thermogenic program in adipocytes and M2 polarization of macrophages. Moreover, our data suggest that LGR6 receptor is mediating MaR1 actions on brown adipocytes, and that IL-6 is required for the thermogenic effects of MaR1
