Brown Adipose Tissue Energy Metabolism in Humans

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Characterization of breast tissues in density and effective atomic number basis via spectral X-ray computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Differentiation of breast tissues is challenging in X-ray imaging because tissues might share similar or even the same linear attenuation coefficients $\mu$. Spectral computed tomography (CT) allows for more quantitative characterization in terms of tissue density and effective atomic number by exploiting the energy dependence of $\mu$. In this work, 5

Exercise-induced ‘browning’ of adipose tissues [PDF]

open access: yesMetabolism, 2018
Global rates of obesity continue to rise and are necessarily the consequence of a long-term imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure. This is the result of an expansion of adipose tissue due to both the hypertrophy of existing adipocytes and hyperplasia of adipocyte pre-cursors.

The anti‐obesity and anti‐diabetic effects of the edible seaweed Gloiopeltis furcata (Postels et Ruprecht) J. Agardh in mice fed a high‐fat diet

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 599-610, January 2023., 2023
Edible red seaweed G. furcata alleviates obesity and associated metabolic disorders in mice fed a high fat diet by suppressing intestinal lipid absorption, oxidative stress and inflammation. Abstract Obesity and diabetes are serious, chronic medical conditions associated with a wide range of life‐threatening conditions.

Identification of biomarkers of brown adipose tissue aging highlights the role of dysfunctional energy and nucleotide metabolism pathways

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Brown adipose tissue function declines during aging and may contribute to the onset of metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity. Only limited understanding of the mechanisms leading to the metabolic impairment of brown adipocytes during aging ...

Casein Kinase 2—A Kinase that Inhibits Brown Fat Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In adipose tissue, there is a delicate balance between storing and expending energy. In this issue, Shinoda et al. (2015) use phosphoproteomics to identify casein kinase 2 (CK2) as a suppressor of brown adipocyte formation, providing insights into how ...

New insights into the secretory functions of brown adipose tissue.

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2019
In recent years, an important secretory role of brown adipose tissue (BAT) has emerged, which is consistent, to some extent, with the earlier recognition of the important secretory role of white fat. The so-called brown adipokines or "batokines" may play

Brown adipose tissue in humans

open access: yesAnnals 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.

Myeloid p38 activation maintains macrophage–liver crosstalk and BAT thermogenesis through IL‐12–FGF21 axis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Physiological activation of myeloid p38 controls macrophage IL‐12 production and crosstalk to the liver by modulating hepatic FGF21, and subsequently, brown adipose tissue thermogenesis during obesity Abstract Obesity features excessive fat accumulation in several body tissues and induces a state of chronic low‐grade inflammation that contributes to ...

‘Browning’ the cardiac and peri-vascular adipose tissues to modulate cardiovascular risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Excess visceral adiposity, in particular that located adjacent to the heart and coronary arteries is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. In the pathophysiological state, dysfunctional adipose tissue secretes an array of factors modulating ...
