Mechanisms involved in human thermogenesis

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Energy expenditure in humans is partially understood. Sympathetic drive is an important stimulator of brown-adipose tissue-mediated increases in energy expenditure, and it is known that leptin-mediated pathways in part contribute to this. This thesis has sought to understand human energy expenditure further by two different methods. Firstly, we have characterised the first rare human mutations in G protein-coupled...
