Postprandial Thermogenesis in Obesity
Clinical Science, 19811. The thermogenic response and changes in plasma substrates and hormones were tested after a liquid meal in lean, obese and formerly obese women. 2. Subjects with a family history of obesity tested either while obese or after slimming to a normal weight had a thermogenic response, which was only half that of the lean group.

Thermogenesis and Thyroid Function
Annual Review of Nutrition, 1995The past 10 years have seen tremendous progress in the definition of the nuclear mechanism of action of thyroid hormones. Although the way in which these nuclear mechanisms underlie the 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3)-dependent stimulation of metabolic rate remains to be clarified, evidence favoring non-nuclear pathways is limited.

Corticotropin and nonshivering thermogenesis
Experientia, 1977Chronic treatment with corticotropin led to reduced calorigenic effect of norepinephrine in cold acclimatized rats, but potentiated its effect in controls. This inhibitory effect was not due to the observed decrease in corticosterone plasma level, as it was shown by metopirone administration.

Nutrient induced thermogenesis
Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1997Although 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 ...

Adaptive thermogenesis in hummingbirds
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2002SUMMARY The occurrence of non-shivering thermogenesis in birds has long been a controversial issue. Although birds are endothermic vertebrates, sharing with mammals (placental mammals and marsupials) a common ancestor, they do not possess brown adipose tissue or a similar type of tissue, unlike their mammalian counterparts.

The regulation of body temperature is often conceptualized as a negative feedback control system complete with afferent limb, integrating area and effector limb. Most vertebrates regulate body temperature and these animals have been classified into two groups - ectotherms and endotherms.

Mammalian thermogenesis, or acceleration of metabolic rate in excess of essential metabolism, cannot be considered in isolation since it is coordinated with functions controlling heat loss to defend the body temperature. Further complexity is introduced when one considers that heat loss is effected by three discrete processes (vasoconstriction ...

International journal of obesity, 1988
The evidence reviewed here indicates that insulin can increase sympathetically-mediated thermogenesis, probably via its central actions. However, since hypoglycaemia appears to inhibit thermogenesis, the interpretation of data and design of the experiments to study this phenomenon are highly problematic and further confounded by marked changes in ...
