Dietary fat overload reprograms brown fat mitochondria
Chronic nutrient overload accelerates the onset of several aging-related diseases reducing life expectancy. Although the mechanisms by which overnutrition affects metabolic processes in many tissues are known, its role on BAT physiology is still unclear. Herein, we investigated the mitochondrial responses in BAT of female mice exposed to high fat diet (HFD) at different steps of life. Although ...
متن کاملUCP1 deficiency causes brown fat respiratory chain depletion and sensitizes mitochondria to calcium overload-induced dysfunction.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) mitochondria exhibit high oxidative capacity and abundant expression of both electron transport chain components and uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). UCP1 dissipates the mitochondrial proton motive force (Δp) generated by the respiratory chain and increases thermogenesis. Here we find that in mice genetically lacking UCP1, cold-induced activation of metabolism triggers in...
متن کاملDietary Factors Promoting Brown and Beige Fat Development and Thermogenesis.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a specialized fat tissue that has a high capacity to dissociate cellular respiration from ATP utilization, resulting in the release of stored energy as heat. Adult humans possess a substantial amount of BAT in the form of constitutively active brown fat or inducible beige fat. BAT activity in humans is inversely correlated with adiposity, blood glucose concentratio...
متن کاملWhither brown fat?
In 1551 Gessner described a lobular fatty tissue which we now know as brown adipose tissue (BAT). Apart from a few descriptions of the tissue in hibernators, it was then virtually ignored by scientists for the next four hundred years until its involvement in the thermoregulation of non-hibernating mammals was suggested (Smith, 1961). However, even after this work in the early 1960s, doubts over...
