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 ...

Wireless optogenetics protects against obesity via stimulation of non-canonical fat thermogenesis. [PDF]

, 2020
Cold stimuli and the subsequent activation of β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) potently stimulate adipose tissue thermogenesis and increase whole-body energy expenditure.

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.

Bioactivity in Whey Proteins Influencing Energy Balance [PDF]

, 2012
Peer-reviewedObesity develops due to energy (food) intake exceeding energy expenditure. Nutrients that reduce the positive energy balance are thus being considered as therapies to combat obesity.

Thermogenesis in Adipose Tissue Activated by Thyroid Hormone

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Thermogenesis is the production of heat that occurs in all warm-blooded animals. During cold exposure, there is obligatory thermogenesis derived from body metabolism as well as adaptive thermogenesis through shivering and non-shivering mechanisms.

Huddling behavior regulate adaptive thermogenesis in Brandt’s voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii)

Cell & Bioscience
Background 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

Repeatability of brown adipose tissue measurements on FDG PET/CT following a simple cooling procedure for BAT activation [PDF]

, 2019
Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) is present in a significant number of adult humans and can be activated by exposure to cold. Measurement of active BAT presence, activity, and volume are desirable for determining the efficacy of potential treatments intended ...

Urolithin A exerts antiobesity effects through enhancing adipose tissue thermogenesis in mice

PLoS Biology, 2020
Obesity leads to multiple health problems, including diabetes, fatty liver, and even cancer. Here, we report that urolithin A (UA), a gut-microflora–derived metabolite of pomegranate ellagitannins (ETs), prevents diet-induced obesity and metabolic ...

Creatine and low-dose lithium supplementation separately alter energy expenditure, body mass, and adipose metabolism for the promotion of thermogenesis

iScience
Summary: Nutraceutical approaches to promote adipose tissue thermogenesis may help to prevent obesity onset. Creatine is a critical regulator of adipose metabolic function and low-dose lithium supplementation has been shown to promote adipose ...
