Brown Bears activates a Satiety Hormone Cholecystokinin (CCK) pathway in adipose tissue during hibernation

2024-12-21

Abstract excerpt

The brown bear ( Ursus arctos ) hibernates to survive cold winters without access to food. It builds enormous subcutaneous fat stores during summer and relies on it for energy during winter. Remarkably, the weight loss during winter occurs without muscle loss despite inactivity. Studying brown bear biology can therefore provide insights for improving human health in obesity and weight loss treatments. We here inv...
