A constant body temperature can only be maintained when the rate of heat dissipation equals the rate of heat loss. Thermoregulatory heat production mechanisms compensating heat loss are classically categorized as shivering and non-shivering thermogenesis.

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2012 Obesity is currently a global pandemic, and is associated with increased mortality and co-morbidities including many metabolic diseases. Obesity is characterized by an increase in adipose mass due to increased energy intake, decreased energy expenditure,

Brown adipose tissue in humans
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2011Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) has recently found to be functionally active in adults. The purpose of this review is to chart the importance of BAT in the light of recent publications in humans.After publication of the direct evidence of functional BAT in human adults the original findings in human studies have been sparse.

The Importance of Brown Adipose Tissue
New England Journal of Medicine, 2009To the Editor: In the April 9 issue, van Marken Lichtenbelt et al., Cypess et al., and Virtanen et al. report on functioning supraclavicular brown adipose tissue in adult humans. Van Marken Lichtenbelt et al. conclude that brown-adipose-tissue activity induced by exposure to cold is impaired in overweight healthy subjects, and Cypess et al., using ...

The Ontogeny of Brown Adipose Tissue
Annual Review of Nutrition, 2015There are three different types of adipose tissue (AT)—brown, white, and beige—that differ with stage of development, species, and anatomical location. Of these, brown AT (BAT) is the least abundant but has the greatest potential impact on energy balance.

Brown adipose tissue and aging
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2011Brown adipose tissue (BAT) was thought to be a tissue with physiological importance early in life (maintenance of body temperature) and to disappear after birth. Recent studies using functional imaging have identified the presence of BAT activity throughout life.

Brown adipose tissue is structurally and functionally different from white adipose tissue. Although abundant at birth, in the adult it exists only as small depots at specific locations such as the interscapular region of rodents. The brown colour of the tissue is due to an abundance of mitochondria.

Bioenergenetics of brown adipose tissue
Lipids, 1970AbstractExamination of the effect of 2,4‐dinitrophenol (DNP) in vivo on the brown adipose tissue of cold‐exposed rats as well as the effect of DNP and dicumarol in vitro, indicates that brown fat does possess a functional electron transport‐coupled phosphorylating system.

The Genetics of Brown Adipose Tissue
2010Brown adipose tissue is highly differentiated and has evolved as a mechanism for heat production based upon uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, large amounts of lipid can be stored in the cells to provide fuel necessary for heat production upon adrenergic stimulation from the central nervous system, and a highly ...
