B rown fat, also known as brown adipose tissue (BAT), is a type of fat in our bodies that's different from the white fat around our belly and thighs that we are more familiar with. Brown fat has a ...

BAT is a thermogenic organ. In contrast to white adipose tissue (WAT), the primary function of BAT is to produce heat by the process of nonshivering thermogenesis (NST). This process is enabled by ...

ugr.es Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has the ability to oxidise glucose and lipids, and dissipate energy in the form of heat.1 Thus, it could provide one method to influence energy balance—and therefore, ...

Underscores high unmet need for a therapeutic alternative to opioids and surgical interventions –– Reflects positive preliminary Phase 2 Safety ...

Recruitment of brown adipose tissue (BAT) has emerged as a potential tool to combat obesity and associated metabolic complications. Short-term cold acclimation has been shown not only to enhance ...

A new platform, Adiposetissue.org, is set to enhance obesity and metabolism research by centralizing and simplifying access to adipose tissue data. Developed by researchers from Helmholtz Munich, ...

Adipose tissue comes in three colors: white, brown and beige. While white fat specializes in storing lipid and expands during obesity, brown fat is thermogenic, turning energy into heat. Beige fat is ...
