Cold Induced Depot-Specific Browning in Ferret Aortic Perivascular Adipose Tissue

Cold Induced Depot-Specific Browning in Ferret Aortic Perivascular Adipose Tissue

Brown adipose tissue is responsible for facultative thermogenesis to produce heat and increase energy expenditure in response to proper stimuli, e.g., cold. Acquisition of brown-like features (browning) in perivascular white adipose tissue (PVAT) may protect against obesity/cardiovascular disease. M...
