body. White adipose tissue (WAT) stores excess energy in the form of triglycerides, whereas
brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates energy in the form of heat through mitochondrial

produced through a process called WAT browning. This tissue mainly resides in WAT depots
and displays intermediate characteristics of both WAT and BAT. Since the recent discovery …
