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 ...

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.

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 ...

Recurrent Hypothermia and Autonomic Dysfunction Secondary to Shapiro Syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A 44‐year‐old man presented with recurrent hypothermia, diaphoresis and hypertension. Extensive investigation for infectious, inflammatory, metabolic and endocrine aetiologies was negative. MR scan of the brain demonstrated no lesions but revealed callosal dysgenesis, consistent with Shapiro syndrome.

Huddling behavior regulate adaptive thermogenesis in Brandt’s voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii)
Cell & BioscienceBackground Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is the main site of non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) in small mammals, playing an important role in maintaining body temperature and energy balance. Huddling is a behavioral strategy for small rodents to save energy
