Chinese Medicine, 2021 Background Intermittent or prolonged exposure to severe cold stress disturbs energy homeostasis and can lead to hypothermia, heart failure, Alzheimer’s disease, and so on. As the typical “hot” traditional Chinese medicine, Aconite has been widely used to

Involvement of TRP Channels in Adipocyte Thermogenesis: An Update
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Obesity prevalence became a severe global health problem and it is caused by an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a major site of mammalian non-shivering thermogenesis or energy dissipation.

Physiological Research, 2006 Apart from thyroid hormones, as the main hormonal regulators of obligatory thermogenesis, and catecholamines, as major hormonal regulators of facultative thermogenesis, production of heat in homeotherms can also be influenced by steroids. Generally, hormones can influence heat production by regulating the activity of various enzymes of oxidative ...

QPLOT Neurons—Converging on a Thermoregulatory Preoptic Neuronal Population
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The preoptic area of the hypothalamus is a homeostatic control center. The heterogeneous neurons in this nucleus function to regulate the sleep/wake cycle, reproduction, thirst and hydration, as well as thermogenesis and other metabolic responses ...

Fundamental mechanisms of thermogenesis. [PDF]
, 2006 Thermogenesis is an obligatory consequence of cellular metabolism and is identified as a unique property of homeotherms which have to maintain constant their body temperature in a cold environment.

Diet-induced adaptive thermogenesis requires neuropeptide FF receptor-2 signalling
Nature Communications, 2018 Excess caloric intake leads to increased thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue, to limit weight gain. Here, the authors show that neuropeptide FF receptor-2 signalling promotes thermogenesis via control of NPY expression in the arcuate nucleus, and that ...

Molecular MetabolismObjective: Activating brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis is a promising approach to combat obesity and metabolic disorders. The post-transcriptional regulation of BAT thermogenesis mediated by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is still not fully ...

Overpotential-derived thermogenesis in mitochondrial respiratory chain [PDF]
Thermogenesis, which is associated with intracellular aerobic respiration, is a fundamental function that controls the internal temperatures of living organisms. Proton leakage is considered to be correlated with thermogenesis through aerobic respiration.

Thermogenesis in ectothermic vertebrates [PDF]
Temperature, 2015 Thermogenesis refers to the production of heat by living organisms as a by-product of metabolic activity and is the principal thermoregulatory effector employed by endothermic organisms.
