Ckmt1 is Dispensable for Mitochondrial Bioenergetics Within White/Beige Adipose Tissue
Function, 2022 Within brown adipose tissue (BAT), the brain isoform of creatine kinase (CKB) has been proposed to regulate the regeneration of ADP and phosphocreatine in a futile creatine cycle (FCC) that stimulates energy expenditure. However, the presence of FCC, and
