Involvement of TRP Channels in Adipocyte Thermogenesis: An Update

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Steroids and thermogenesis

open access: yesPhysiological 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Private heat for public warmth: how huddling shapes individual thermogenic responses of rabbit pups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p><b>Background:</b> Within their litter, young altricial mammals compete for energy (constraining growth and survival) but cooperate for warmth.

RNA-binding protein YBX3 promotes PPARγ-SLC3A2 mediated BCAA metabolism fueling brown adipogenesis and thermogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism
Objective: 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]

open access: yes
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]

open access: yesTemperature, 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.

Adipocyte Myoglobin Is a Determinant of Energy Expenditure and a Potential Target to Limit Obesity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Myoglobin, known as a muscle oxygen‐carrying protein, is shown to play a key role in fat cells that burn energy. Loss of myoglobin reduces the body's ability to generate heat and increases obesity risk, while restoring it improves metabolism. The study identifies myoglobin as a regulator of fat burning and a potential target to enhance energy ...

Octopamine drives honeybee thermogenesis

open access: yes, 2022
In times of environmental change species have two options to survive: they either relocate to a new habitat or they adapt to the altered environment. Adaptation requires physiological plasticity and provides a selection benefit.

Wearable‐Derived Diurnal Alignment Between Physical Activity and Device Temperature Predicts Future Disease and Mortality Risk

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Wearable‐derived diurnal alignment between physical activity and device temperature, decomposed into 24 h coupling strength (M24), phase deviation (D24), and 12 h harmonic magnitude (M12), is examined in approximately 90,000 UK Biobank participants.
