Brown adipose tissue in humans

Annals of Medicine, 2015
In spite of the long history of evidence for brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adult humans (1), the evidence of its functionality was missing.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Brown Adipose Tissue Growth and Development

Scientifica, 2013
Brown adipose tissue is uniquely able to rapidly produce large amounts of heat through activation of uncoupling protein (UCP) 1. Maximally stimulated brown fat can produce 300 watts/kg of heat compared to 1 watt/kg in all other tissues.

Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances and hand osteoarthritis: data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To explore whether biological levels of specific per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and a mixture of PFAS – reflecting the overall effect and accounting for correlations among each PFAS – relate to incident hand osteoarthritis (HOA) and progression.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists, Sodium‐Glucose Cotransporter‐2 Inhibitors, and Risk of Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) facilitate weight loss and exhibit immunomodulatory effects, but their impact on the risk of developing autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) is unclear. We compared ARD incidence following initiation of GLP‐1RAs, or SGLT2is, vs.

Integrative analyses of translatome and transcriptome reveal important translational controls in brown and white adipose regulated by microRNAs

Scientific Reports, 2017
The epidemic of obesity and diabetes has markedly spurred the research interest in adipocyte biology. Brown adipocytes are specialized for energy expenditure and of therapeutic interest for treatment of metabolic diseases, but how brown adipocytes are ...
