1. Modulators of UCP1-dependent thermogenesis : Glucocorticoids, diet and novel research models
Sammanfattning : The activation and recruitment of brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis has been put forward as a promising strategy to reduce the disease burden of obesity and obesity-related diseases. Heat production by BAT can be attributed to the tissue-specific mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). LÄS MER
2. Cold-induced nonshivering thermogenesis : tissue origin, activation, recruitment
Sammanfattning : Two types of heat production, shivering and nonshivering thermogenesis, are activated in mammals in the cold. In small mammals, nonshivering thermogenesis becomes the main source of heat upon long-term cold exposure. LÄS MER
3. Volatile anaesthetics and nonshivering thermogenesis
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Amino acid-induced thermogenesis during anaesthesia
Sammanfattning : General anaesthesia causes hypothermia due to decreased metabolic rate and impaired thermoregulation. Adverse effects of hypothermia are coagulation disorders, wound infection, ischemic cardiac events and postoperative shivering. LÄS MER
5. The effect of various dietary fatty acids on adaptive thermogenesis
Sammanfattning : Recently it has been revealed that brown adipose tissue (BAT) is present in adult humans and not, as thought before, only in infants and rodents. BAT, with a main function to generate heat, is also involved in energy metabolism by an adaptive response to eating, referred to as diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT). LÄS MER
