Maternal obesity and resistance to breast cancer treatments among offspring: Link to gut dysbiosis

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background About 50 000 new cases of cancer in the United States are attributed to obesity. The adverse effects of obesity on breast cancer may be most profound when affecting the early development; that is, in the womb of a pregnant obese mother.

Brown adipose tissue and regulation of human body weight

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 39, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Approximately 30% of the global population is affected by obesity. Traditional non‐surgical measures for weight loss have limited efficacy and tolerability. Therefore, there is a need for novel, effective therapies. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been implicated in physiological energy expenditure, indicating that it could be ...

Brown fat detection by infrared thermography—An invaluable research methodology with noteworthy uncertainties confirmed by a mathematical proof

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 6, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Infrared detection by thermal camera obeys Stefan's law of radiative heat transfer. This associated uncertainty in detection is estimated by the formula of propagation of error. Abstract Brown adipose tissue (BAT) represents a pivotal scientific renaissance worthy as a strategy for obesity and diabetes since its re‐discovery in adults over a decade ago.

Fish Fingerprinting: Identifying Crude Oil Pollutants using Bicyclic Sesquiterpanes (Bicyclanes) in the Tissues of Exposed Fish

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 7-18, January 2023., 2023
Abstract In the present study, we investigated the possibility of identifying the source oils of exposed fish using ratios of bicyclic sesquiterpane (bicyclane) chemical biomarkers. In the event of an oil spill, identification of source oil(s) for assessment, or for litigation purposes, typically uses diagnostic ratios of chemical biomarkers to produce

Thermogenic ability of uncoupling protein 1 in beige adipocytes in mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Chronic adrenergic activation leads to the emergence of beige adipocytes in some depots of white adipose tissue in mice. Despite their morphological similarities to brown adipocytes and their expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), a thermogenic ...

Does Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis Play a Role in Metabolic Health?

open access: yesJournal of Obesity, 2013
The function ascribed to brown adipose tissue in humans has long been confined to thermoregulation in neonates, where this thermogenic capacity was thought lost with maturation.
