There are three types of adipose tissue in the human body: white adipose tissue (WAT), brown adipose tissue (BAT) and beige or Brite adipose tissue. In WAT, energy reserves in the form of triglyceride, while in BAT triglyceride molecules lipolyze for thermogenesis through fatty acid oxidation. A protein called uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1) is responsible for non-shivering thermogenesis in BAT. The most important activators of BAT include peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma…

Brown adipose tissue activity as a target for the treatment of obesity/insulin resistance

Presence of brown adipose tissue (BAT), characterized by the expression of the thermogenic uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), has recently been described in adult humans and Stimulation of BAT activity and/or recruitment of UCP1-positive cells are relevant targets for the treatment of obesity/type 2 diabetes in humans.

Role of Exercise in the Activation of Brown Adipose Tissue

It is postulate that exercise might activate and recruit human BAT through the activation of SNS, heart and skeletal muscle.

Acquirement of Brown Fat Cell Features by Human White Adipocytes*

It is shown that PGC-1α is able to direct human WAT PPARγ toward a transcriptional program linked to energy dissipation, and that Alteration of energy balance through an increased utilization of fat in WAT may be a conceivable strategy for the treatment of obesity.

Role of sympathetic activity in controlling the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in brown fat cells of lean and genetically obese rats

Lipid mobilization in subcutaneous adipose tissue during exercise in lean and obese humans. Roles of insulin and natriuretic peptides.

It is suggested that insulin antilipolytic action plays a role in the regulation of lipolysis during exercise in lean as well as in obese subjects.

Brown adipose tissue: function and physiological significance.

The development of brown adipose tissue with its characteristic protein, uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1), was probably determinative for the evolutionary success of mammals, as its thermogenesis enhances neonatal survival and allows for active life even in cold surroundings.

Effect of Acute Endurance and Resistance Exercise on Endocrine Hormones Directly Related to Lipolysis and Skeletal Muscle Protein Synthesis in Adult Individuals with Obesity

The impact of acute endurance and resistance exercise on endocrine hormones directly related to lipolysis and/or skeletal muscle protein synthesis (insulin, [nor]epinephrine, cortisol, growth hormone, testosterone, triiodothyronine, atrial natriuretic peptide, insulin-like growth factor-1), as well as the impact of long-term endurance and Resistance exercise intervention on these hormonal responses to acute endurance or resistance exercise are discussed.

β-Aminoisobutyric acid induces browning of white fat and hepatic β-oxidation and is inversely correlated with cardiometabolic risk factors.

Activation of human brown adipose tissue by a β3-adrenergic receptor agonist.

Irisin and FGF21 are cold-induced endocrine activators of brown fat function in humans.
