Brown Adipose Tissue: A Metabolic Regulator in a Hypothalamic Cross Talk?

7 Nov 2020

Abstract excerpt

Since the discovery of functionally competent, energy-consuming brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adult humans, much effort has been devoted to exploring this tissue as a means for increasing energy expenditure to counteract obesity. However, despite promising effects on metabolic rate and insulin sensitivity, no convincing evidence for weight-loss effects of cold-activated human BAT exists to date. Indeed,...
