Asymmetric perirenal brown adipose dormancy in adult humans is defined by local sympathetic activity
2018-07-13
Abstract excerpt
We here detect dormant brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adult humans, occurring in most of the perirenal fat depot and characterized by a unilocular morphology. This phenotype was contrasted by multilocular BAT accumulating near the adrenal gland. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a gene expression profile of unilocular BAT that was approaching, yet was still distinct from, the expression profile of subcutaneous white...
