The impact of dietary factors on the function of brown and beige adipose tissues—implications on health and disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
The development of strategies that promote the activation of adaptive thermogenesis in brown and beige adipose tissues is expected to lead to advances in the prevention and treatment of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

Dielectric properties measurements of brown and white adipose tissue in rats from 0.5 to 10 GHz [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays an important role in whole body metabolism and with appropriate stimulus could potentially mediate weight gain and insulin sensitivity.

A brown fat-enriched adipokine Adissp controls adipose thermogenesis and glucose homeostasis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The signaling mechanisms regulating adipose thermogenesis have not been fully elucidated. Here, the authors show that a brown fat-enriched adipokine ADISSP promotes adipose thermogenesis and improves metabolic health independently of b-adrenergic ...

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

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

Chemogenetic Excitation of Ventromedial Hypothalamic Steroidogenic Factor 1 (SF1) Neurons Increases Muscle Thermogenesis in Mice

open access: yesBiomolecules
Allostatic adaptations to a perceived threat are crucial for survival and may tap into mechanisms serving the homeostatic control of energy balance. We previously established that exposure to predator odor (PO) in rats significantly increases skeletal ...

Reduction in BACE1 decreases body weight, protects against diet-induced obesity and enhances insulin sensitivity in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Insulin resistance and impaired glucose homoeostasis are important indicators of Type 2 diabetes and are early risk factors of AD (Alzheimer's disease).

Central control of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
Thermogenesis, the production of heat energy, is an essential component of the homeostatic repertoire to maintain body temperature during the challenge of low environmental temperature and plays a key role in elevating body temperature during the febrile

The corticotrophin-releasing factor/urocortin system regulates white fat browning in mice through paracrine mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objectives: The corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF)/urocortin system is expressed in the adipose tissue of mammals, but its functional role in this tissue remains unknown.

Probiotics‐derived postbiotics improve host metabolic syndrome by activating the adipocyte thermogenic signaling pathway in high‐fat diet‐fed mice

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates how probiotics‐derived postbiotics (PLBK®1–5) combat high‐fat diet‐induced obesity. Postbiotics remodel gut microbiota, boosting beneficial metabolites. These metabolites activate adipocyte thermogenesis (Ucp1/AMPK pathway), resulting in reduced body weight, improved insulin sensitivity, and alleviated hepatic steatosis in ...
