Researchers have uncovered the molecular structure of the protein UCP1, which allows brown fat tissue to burn calories as heat. This breakthrough could pave the…
Scientists have discovered the molecular structure of the protein UCP1, crucial to calorie burning in ‘good’ brown fat tissue. This breakthrough, providing detailed molecular insights,…
Study might offer new therapies to treat obesity. A study at McMaster University has found that brown adipose tissue (BAT) is less active in boys…
Dietary intake of flavan-3-ols, type of dietary polyphenolics, could help prevent obesity by sympathetic nervous system-induced browning of fat tissue. In cold conditions, brown adipose…
Cytokine increases production of “beige fat” to burn more cellular energy. An immune signal promotes the production of energy-burning “beige fat,” according to a new…
Beige is considered a calming paint color, and scientists have new evidence that beige fat has a similar impact on the brain, bringing down the…
Study may help lead to drugs aimed at diabetes and obesity. Rutgers researchers and other scientists have discovered how brown fat, also known as brown…
