Higher activity of PGC-1α enables brown fat cells in females to achieve thermogenic activity and energy expenditure compared to males, reveals a study conducted in Japan. This research demonstrates ...

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is specialised for rapid heat production through mitochondrial uncoupling, a process largely driven by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). Upon cold exposure or β-adrenergic ...
Adipose tissue browning has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance energy expenditure and counteract the global rise in obesity. In mammals, two principal fat types coexist: energy-storing white ...
As the body ages, brown adipose tissue activity decreases, fewer calories are burned, and this can contribute to obesity and certain chronic cardiovascular diseases that worsen with age. A study led ...
The prevalence of obesity worldwide has led to an increase in the risk of metabolic diseases and socio-economical burdens. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been established as a promising therapeutic ...

Newly reported research in human tissue and in mice has uncovered a mechanism by which brown fat (brown adipose tissue; BAT) is converted into heat, and identified a control protein that may represent ...

A new diabetes pill burned fat without the usual Ozempic side effects, researchers say
Researchers published findings on June 3, 2026, describing an oral pill that burns fat by targeting skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue through a redesigned beta-2 adrenergic receptor pathway, ...
