Adipsin and adipocyte-derived C3aR1 regulate thermogenic fat in a sex-dependent fashion

open access: yesJCI Insight
Thermogenesis in beige/brown adipose tissues can be leveraged to combat metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes and obesity. The complement system plays pleiotropic roles in metabolic homeostasis and organismal energy balance with canonical effects ...

Sympathetic nerve innervation is required for beigeing in white fat

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
It is increasingly recognized that activation of beige adipocyte thermogenesis by pharmacological or genetic approaches increases energy expenditure and alleviates obesity.

Infrared thermography unveiled the variation of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis among East Asian adults

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
The thermogenesis of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is interesting because the contribution to human adaptation to cold and obesity resistance has been suggested.

Orexin modulates brown adipose tissue thermogenesis

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2012
Non-shivering thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays an important role in thermoregulation. In addition, activations of BAT have important implications for energy homeostasis due to the metabolic consumption of energy reserves entailed in the ...

Absence of MCJ/DnaJC15 promotes brown adipose tissue thermogenesis

open access: yesNature Communications
Obesity poses a global health challenge, demanding a deeper understanding of adipose tissue (AT) and its mitochondria. This study describes the role of the mitochondrial protein Methylation-controlled J protein (MCJ/DnaJC15) in orchestrating brown ...

The Role of the Sympathetic Nervous System in the Hypothermic Effect of d-Fenfluramine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Experiments in this dissertation were conducted to characterize the effects of d-fenfluramine on body temperature and the mechanisms by which d-fenfluramine alter body temperature.

Acyl CoA-binding protein in brown adipose tissue acts as a negative regulator of adaptive thermogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism
Objective: Defective activity of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is linked to obesity and cardiometabolic diseases. While much is known regarding the biological signals that trigger BAT thermogenesis, relatively little is known about the repressors that may ...
