Brown adipose tissue (BAT) displays the unique capacity to generate heat through
uncoupled oxidative phosphorylation that makes it a very attractive therapeutic target for …

Our understanding of brown adipose tissue (BAT) function in humans has increased rapidly
over the past 10 years. This is predominantly due to the development of powerful non …

The growing understanding of adipose tissue as an important endocrine organ with multiple
metabolic functions has directed the attention to the (patho) physiology of distinct fat depots …

The demonstration of metabolically active brown adipose tissue (BAT) in humans primarily
using positron emission tomography coupled to computed tomography (PET/CT) with the …

In rodents, brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a metabolic organ that produces heat in response
to cold and dietary intake through mitochondrial uncoupling. For long time, BAT was …

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates energy to produce heat. Thus, it has the potential to
regulate body temperature by thermogenesis. For the last decade, BAT has been in the …

The energy expending and glucose sink properties of brown adipose tissue (BAT) make it
an attractive target for new obesity and diabetes treatments. Despite decades of research …

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates energy as heat to maintain optimal thermogenesis
and to contribute to energy expenditure in rodents and possibly humans. The energetic …

Elevating energy expenditure via adaptive thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) is
a potential strategy to reverse obesity. Much early enthusiasm for this approach, based on …

White adipose tissue is recognized as both a site of energy storage and an endocrine organ
that produces a myriad of endocrine factors called adipokines. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) …
