Brown Adipose Tissue

2010
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.

Brown adipose tissue in humans

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2011
Human 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.

Bioenergenetics of brown adipose tissue

Lipids, 1970
AbstractExamination 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.

Brown adipose tissue and aging

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2011
Brown 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.

cGMP and Brown Adipose Tissue

2015
The second messenger cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a key mediator in physiological processes such as vascular tone, and its essential involvement in pathways regulating metabolism has been recognized in recent years. Here, we focus on the fundamental role of cGMP in brown adipose tissue (BAT) differentiation and function.

Brown adipose tissue in humans

International Journal of Obesity, 2010
Obesity is endemic in many regions of the world and a forerunner of several serious and sometimes fatal diseases such as ischemic heart disease, stroke, kidney failure and neoplasia. Although we know its origin--it results when energy intake exceeds energy expenditure--at present, the only proven therapy is bariatric surgery.

Brown Adipose Tissue. Interscapular Brown Adipose Tissue of the Rat

1985
Brown or multilocular adipose tissue is relatively infrequent in man and is found predominantly in newborns. It occurs in the neck, armpit (Fig. A1), in the vicinity of the subclavian artery (Fig. A2) and kidney (Fig.A3), dorsal skin, mediastinum (Fig. A4), and mesenteries.
