Activation of estrogen receptor alpha induces beiging of adipocytes
Objectives: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and BAT-like adipose tissues, referred to as ‘beige’ adipose tissues uncouple respiration from ATP synthesis via uncoupling protein one (UCP-1).

Brown/Beige Adipose Tissue: Novel Players in the Fight Against Obesity
Obesity is a metabolic disease which its prevalence is increasing worldwide. Multidisciplinary strategiesare required to combat obesity. Many methods, from diet to surgery, are tried in obesity treatment.However, these methods have not been successful ...

Distinct regulation of hypothalamic and brown/beige adipose tissue activities in human obesity
Background/Objectives:The identification of brown/beige adipose tissue in adult humans has motivated the search for methods aimed at increasing its thermogenic activity as an approach to treat obesity.

Distribution of adipose tissue in the newborn
Regional differences in adipose tissue distribution are associated with differences in adipocyte metabolism and obesity-related morbidities. Intrauterine growth restriction appears to place individuals at greater risk of obesity associated morbidities in

Isoenergetic feeding of low carbohydrate-high fat diets does not increase brown adipose tissue thermogenic capacity in rats [PDF]
Low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LC-HF) diets are popular for inducing weight loss in overweighed adults. Adaptive thermogenesis increased by specific effects of macronutrients on energy expenditure has been postulated to induce this weight loss.

The role of endoplasmic reticulum in human adipose tissue [PDF]
Adipose tissue plays a central role in the regulation of metabolic homeostasis. In obesity adipocytes are challenged by many insults: surplus energy, inflammation, insulin resistance and considerable endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Estimation of CT-derived abdominal visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue depots from anthropometry in Europeans, South Asians and African Caribbeans [PDF]
Background South Asians and African Caribbeans experience more cardiometabolic disease than Europeans. Risk factors include visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous abdominal (SAT) adipose tissue, which vary with ethnicity and are difficult to quantify using ...

Blood Vessels in White and Brown Adipose Tissues
The adipose tissue is composed of two major subtypes, white adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT). While WAT mainly stores excess energy in, BAT plays a role in burning energy and generating heat in a process known as non-shivering ...
