Diet-induced thermogenesis

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1982
Mammals must take in large quantities of food, sometimes equivalent to their own body weight each day, in order to meet the energy requirements of processes such as maintenance, growth, activity, thermoregulation, pregnancy, and lactation. It is therefore remarkable to observe that in adults of most species energy intake is equal to expenditure, and ...

UCP1-independent thermogenesis

Biochemical Journal, 2020
Obesity results from energy imbalance, when energy intake exceeds energy expenditure. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) drives non-shivering thermogenesis which represents a powerful mechanism of enhancing the energy expenditure side of the energy balance equation. The best understood thermogenic system in BAT that evolved to protect the body from hypothermia

Central control of thermogenesis

Neuropharmacology, 2012
In mammals and birds, conservation of body heat at around 37 °C is vital to life. Thermogenesis is the production of this heat which can be obligatory, as in basal metabolic rate, or it can be facultative such as the response to cold. A complex regulatory system has evolved which senses environmental or core temperature and integrates this information ...

FEVER AND BIOCHEMICAL THERMOGENESIS

Pediatrics, 1971
Serum free fatty acid versus glycerol ratios were decreased in human newborn infants during pyrexia or cold injury, but remained practically unchanged in older infants and children. Decreased ratios in the newborn resulted exclusively from an increase in serum glycerol.

Nutrient induced thermogenesis

Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1997
Although first described more than two centuries ago, the increase in energy expenditure associated with feeding (nutrient induced thermogenesis (NIT) is still incompletely understood. Although the magnitude of the response and the effect of varying the composition of the diet, route and rate of feeding is still the subject of controversy, the ...

Studies in Microbial Thermogenesis

Science, 1927
An apparatus for the study of the "spontaneous" heat production in stored organic materials has been described. Experiments with commercial cornmeal and cracked yellow field corn have shown that temperatures above 60°C. can readily be produced under suitable conditions of moisture content, oxygen supply and insulation, and that marked heating does not ...

Growth, thermogenesis, and hyperphagia

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1990
Resting metabolic rate is demonstrated to be a function of fat-free mass and a growth variable related to food-energy-input imbalance rate. By use of obligatory energy expenditure terms, the two-reservoir energy model applied to hyperphagia shows that growth of the fat-free mass is rapid whereas that of the fat store is slow and that the growth of both
