Weighing in on the role of brown adipose tissue for treatment of obesity
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39087083/
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) activation is an emerging target for obesity treatments due to its thermogenic properties stemming from its ability to shuttle energy through uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1). Recent...
The review explores BAT activation's potential for obesity treatment, evaluating pharmacological, hormonal, and environmental factors influencing BAT's role in energy expenditure and weight reduction in humans.
Obesity Arrhythmias: Role of IL-6 Trans-Signaling
