As endotherms, humans exposed to a compensable cold environment rely on an increase in
thermogenic rate to counteract heat lost to the environment, thereby maintaining a stable …

Humans have inherited complex neural circuits which drive behavioral, somatic, and
autonomic thermoregulatory responses to defend their body temperature. While they are …

Daily compensable cold exposure in humans reduces shivering by~ 20% without changing
total heat production, partly by increasing brown adipose tissue thermogenic capacity and …

In cold exposed humans, increasing thermogenic rate is essential to prevent decreases in
core temperature. This review describes the metabolic requirements of thermogenic …

Given that a large proportion of our country's geography lies at latitudes where cold
exposure is a fact of life, strategies for survival and/or rescue of victims exposed to …

In cold-exposed adult humans, significant or lethal decreases in body temperature are
delayed by reducing heat loss via peripheral vasoconstriction and by increasing rates of …

Key points Muscle‐derived thermogenesis during acute cold exposure in humans consists
of a combination of cold‐induced increases in skeletal muscle proton leak and shivering …

Cold exposure facilitates body heat loss which can reduce body temperature, unless
mitigated by enhanced heat conservation or increased heat production. When behavioral …

The thermogenic response of humans depends critically on the coordination of muscle fibre
recruitment and oxidative fuel metabolism. The primary goal of this study was to determine …
