Adipocyte lipid synthesis coupled to neuronal control of thermogenic programming [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: The de novo biosynthesis of fatty acids (DNL) through fatty acid synthase (FASN) in adipocytes is exquisitely regulated by nutrients, hormones, fasting, and obesity in mice and humans. However, the functions of DNL in adipocyte biology and in

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 ...

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.

Energy expenditure during overfeeding
Nutrition & Metabolism, 2006 The large inter-individual variation in weight gain during standardized overfeeding together with a weight gain that is often less than theoretically calculated from the energy excess suggest that there are differences between persons in the capacity to ...

Nardilysin in adipocytes regulates UCP1 expression and body temperature homeostasis
Scientific Reports, 2022 Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates chemical energy as heat through uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). The induction of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) in BAT was recently identified as a mechanism that supports UCP1-dependent thermogenesis.

Alpha- and beta-adrenergic mediation of changes in metabolism and Na/K exchange in rat brown fat [PDF]
, 1985 Double- and triple-barreled ion-sensitive microelectrodes were used to measure changes in extracellular K+ and Na+ concentrations ([K+]o, [Na+]o) in brown fat.

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
