ugr.es Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has the ability to oxidise glucose and lipids, and dissipate energy in the form of heat.1 Thus, it could provide one method to influence energy balance—and therefore, ...

and her team have been investigating the complex interactions that occur between brown adipose tissue and the mechanism regulating metabolism in the liver. Exposure to low temperatures has been ...

Newly reported research in human tissue and in mice has uncovered a mechanism by which brown fat (brown adipose tissue; BAT) is converted into heat, and identified a control protein that may ...

Vatner, Jie Zhang, and Stephen F. Vatner, evaluated the role of brown adipose tissue (BAT), a special type of fat that burns calories to generate heat, in improving exercise endurance and ...

Recruitment of brown adipose tissue (BAT) has emerged as a potential tool to combat obesity and associated metabolic complications. Short-term cold acclimation has been shown not only to enhance ...
