Assessment of brown adipose tissue function
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 In this review we discuss practical considerations for the assessment of brown adipose tissue in rodent models, focusing on mice. The central aim of the review is to provide a critical appraisal of the utility of specialised techniques for assessing ...

The kallikrein–kinin pathway as a mechanism for auto-control of brown adipose tissue activity
Nature Communications, 2020 Brown adipose tissue, known produce heat by metabolizing fat, is also secretes molecules capable of communicating with other organs. Here the authors show that brown adipose tissue secretes kininogen, a component of heat system regulation, that provides ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 1996 Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) supplies brown adipose tissue with fatty acids for nonshivering thermogenesis. In brown adipose tissue of the Djungarian hamster we studied i) the molecular mechanisms involved in cold-induced stimulation of LPL activity, ii) the

Brown Adipose Tissue in a Newborn [PDF]
Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2008 A premature infant boy of 35 weeks and 4 days weighing 2605 g was found to have bilateral supraclavicular masses at 13 days of life. He had persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn and thrombocytopenia. Delivery was by cesarean section for nonreassuring fetal status, and Apgar scores were 5 at 1 minute and 8 at 5 minutes. Initial radiographs

Brown adipose tissue monocytes support tissue expansion
Nature Communications, 2021 Adipose tissue is composed of a number of adipocytes and a number of other cells including immune cells. Here the authors use single-cell sequencing of murine brown adipose tissue immune cells and describe multiple macrophage and monocyte subsets and ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,

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