A percutaneous needle biopsy technique for sampling the supraclavicular brown adipose tissue depot of humans. [PDF]
, 2015 Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been proposed as a potential target tissue against obesity and its related metabolic complications. Although the molecular and functional characteristics of BAT have been intensively studied in rodents, only a few studies ...

Quantitative evaluation of gap junctions during development of the brown adipose tissue.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1980 Gap junctions of rat brown adipose tissue (BAT) were studied with the freeze-fracture technique during development. The frequency and the mean area of gap junctions increased after birth, reached a maximal development during the functional phase of the ...

PON2 Deficiency Leads to Increased Susceptibility to Diet-Induced Obesity. [PDF]
, 2019 (1) Background: Paraoxonase 2 (PON2) is a ubiquitously expressed protein localized to endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Previous studies have shown that PON2 exhibits anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory functions, and PON2-deficient (PON2-def) mice ...
