Comparative Transcriptome Profiling of Young and Old Brown Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a major site for uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1)-mediated non-shivering thermogenesis. BAT dissipates energy via heat generation to maintain the optimal body temperature and increases energy expenditure. These energetic processes in BAT use large amounts of glucose and fatt...
