Perilipin regulates the thermogenic actions of norepinephrine in brown adipose tissue [PDF]

, 2007
In response to cold, norepinephrine (NE)-induced triacylglycerol hydrolysis (lipolysis) in adipocytes of brown adipose tissue (BAT) provides fatty acid substrates to mitochondria for heat generation (adaptive thermogenesis).

Brown Adipose Tissue Energy Metabolism in Humans

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
The demonstration of metabolically active brown adipose tissue (BAT) in humans primarily using positron emission tomography coupled to computed tomography (PET/CT) with the glucose tracer 18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) has renewed the interest of the ...

PVAT and Its Relation to Brown, Beige, and White Adipose Tissue in Development and Function

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Adipose tissue is commonly categorized into three types with distinct functions, phenotypes, and anatomical localizations. White adipose tissue (WAT) is the major energy store; the largest depots of WAT are found in subcutaneous or intravisceral sites ...

Adaptive thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue involves activation of pannexin-1 channels

Molecular Metabolism, 2021
Objective: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is specialized in thermogenesis. The conversion of energy into heat in brown adipocytes proceeds via stimulation of β-adrenergic receptor (βAR)-dependent signaling and activation of mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1

Characterisation of human adipose tissue : ceramide metabolism, depot differences and evaluation of dysfunctionality [PDF]

, 2016
Normal adipose tissue function is necessary for maintaining proper energy balance, as both excess and absence of this tissue lead to metabolic disturbances, such as insulin resistance.

Berberine promotes the recruitment and activation of brown adipose tissue in mice and humans

Cell Death and Disease, 2019
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates metabolic energy and mediates non-shivering thermogenesis, thereby boosting energy expenditure. Increasing BAT mass and activity is expected to be a promising strategy for combating obesity; however, few medications ...

De novo reconstruction of human adipose transcriptome reveals conserved lncRNAs as regulators of brown adipogenesis

Nature Communications, 2018
Long non-coding RNAs are known to regulate mouse white adipose tissue development and brown adipose tissue program expression. Here, the authors construct a roadmap for human long non-coding RNAs expressed in fetal brown adipose tissue, adult omental and

Brown Adipose Crosstalk in Tissue Plasticity and Human Metabolism

Endocrine reviews, 2019
Infants rely on brown adipose tissue (BAT) as a primary source of thermogenesis. In some adult humans, residuals of brown adipose tissue are adjacent to the central nervous system and acute activation increases metabolic rate.

Spatial Metabolomics Reveals the Effects of Dietary Capsaicin Intervention on Interscapular Adipose Tissue Metabolome in Mice

Foods
Capsaicin is a polyphenol with a well-known anti-obesity potential, which could activate brown adipose tissue and promote the browning of white adipose tissue.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids stimulate de novo lipogenesis and improve glucose homeostasis during refeeding with high fat diet [PDF]

, 2017
The recovery of body weight after a period of caloric restriction is accompanied by an enhanced efficiency of fat deposition and hyperinsulinemia—which are exacerbated by isocaloric refeeding on a high fat diet rich in saturated and monounsaturated ...
