Adipocyte-specific deletion of the oxygen-sensor PHD2 sustains elevated energy expenditure at thermoneutrality
2021-01-06
Abstract excerpt
Enhancing brown adipose tissue (BAT) function to combat metabolic disease is a promising therapeutic strategy. A major obstacle to this strategy is that a thermoneutral environment, relevant to most modern human living conditions, deactivates functional BAT. We showed that we can overcome the dormancy of BAT at thermoneutrality by inhibiting the main oxygen sensor HIF-prolyl hydroxylase, PHD2, specifically in adip...
