Brown adipose tissue (BAT), a thermoregulatory organ known to promote energy
expenditure, has been extensively studied as a potential avenue to combat obesity …

Simple Summary Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic tissue that greatly
contributes to preventing neonatal hypothermia by activating biochemical and endocrine …

Triglyceride cycling is the process of continuous degradation and re-synthesis of triglyceride
in cellular stores. We show in 3T3-L1 adipocytes that triglycerides are subject to rapid …

Summary That uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is the sole mediator of adipocyte thermogenesis
is a conventional viewpoint that has primarily been inferred from the attenuation of the …

Adipose tissue can recruit catabolic adipocytes that utilize chemical energy to dissipate heat.
This process occurs either by uncoupled respiration through uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) or …

In this review, we provide a brief synopsis of the connections between adipose tissue and
metabolic health and highlight some recent developments in understanding and exploiting …

The involvement of cardiovascular disease in cancer onset and development represents a
contemporary interest in basic science. It has been recognized, from the most recent …

Objective Emerging evidence suggest the existence of constant basal lipolysis and re-
esterification of a substantial fraction of thus liberated fatty acids. In stimulated lipolysis, the …

Futile cycles are biological phenomena where two opposing biochemical reactions run
simultaneously, resulting in a net energy loss without appreciable productivity. Such a state …

In the healthy state, the fat stored in our body isn't just inert. Rather, it is dynamically
mobilized to maintain an adequate concentration of fatty acids (FAs) in our bloodstream. Our …
