Control mechanisms in brown adipose tissue plasma membrane

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1984
It is generally agreed that the site of heat production during nonshivering thermogenesis is the brown adipose tissue (BAT) and that the triggering event for heat production is the interaction of noradrenaline (NA) with its receptor on the plasma membrane.

BROWNING MECHANISM IN BACKHOUSIA MYRTIFOLIA [PDF]

, 2011
Backhousia myrtiflolia is an Australian native that has recently been cultivated for cut flowers. Browning in the leaves and flowers (sepals) of this plant has become a hurdle for the export marketability of its cut foliage. Understanding the mechanism and triggers for this discolouration is important for the further development of methods that could ...

Mechanism and evolution of the uncoupling protein of brown adipose tissue

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 1990
The uncoupling protein found in mitochondria from thermogenic brown adipose tissue is structurally very similar to two other mitochondrial carrier proteins transporting ADP/ATP and phosphate, respectively. Similarities are also seen with the mechanism of these carriers, which are part of a family of H+/OH(-)-substrate anion co-transporters, further ...

A Gas-Mechanical Coupled Hoek-Brown Criterion

2020
A gas-mechanical coupled constitutive equation is developed for coal containing gas or CO2 to predict the failure behavior based on fracture mechanics theory. A novel parameter of \( \left| {\partial \cos \alpha /\partial \sum_{1} } \right| \) has been selected as the failure characteristic parameter for coal containing gas.

Brown adipose tissue: the molecular mechanism of its formation

Nutrition Reviews, 2009
The function of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is to oxidize fat and to dissipate the energy produced as heat, providing a source of heat to the organism. Preadipocytes are stimulated by expression of the PRDM16 gene to differentiate into BAT cells. The PRDM16 protein is greatly enriched in BAT and causes increased expression of mitochondrial genes and ...

Mechanisms of stimulus-calorigenesis coupling in brown adipose tissue

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1984
The sequence of metabolic events leading to increased calorigenesis in brown adipose tissue has been reviewed. The first step of this sequence consists in the binding of norepinephrine to adrenergic receptors of the beta1 subtype. This results in the stimulation of adenylate cyclase and activation of lipolysis via the system of protein kinases ...
