Intermittent Cold Exposure Enhances Fat Accumulation in Mice
Due to its high energy consuming characteristics, brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been suggested as a key player in energy metabolism. Cold exposure is a physiological activator of BAT. Intermittent cold exposure (ICE), unlike persistent exposure, is clinically feasible. The main objective of this study was to investigate whether ICE reduces adiposity in C57BL/6 mice. Surprisingly, we found that...
متن کاملEffect of Intermittent Cold Exposure on Brown Fat Activation, Obesity, and Energy Homeostasis in Mice
Homeotherms have specific mechanisms to maintain a constant core body temperature despite changes in thermal environment, food supply, and metabolic demand. Brown adipose tissue, the principal thermogenic organ, quickly and efficiently increases heat production by dissipating the mitochondrial proton motive force. It has been suggested that activation of brown fat, via either environmental (i.e...
متن کاملIntermittent cold stress enhances features of atherosclerotic plaque instability in apolipoprotein E‑deficient mice.
The cold weather is associated with an increased occurrence of acute coronary events. However, the mechanisms underlying cold‑induced myocardial infarctions have not yet been fully elucidated. In the present study, 20 male, eight week‑old, apolipoprotein E (ApoE)‑deficient mice were subjected to either control conditions or intermittent cold exposure for eight weeks. Mice in the cold group were...

major pungent component in fruits of CZTpsium, has been reported to increase the catecholamine secretioni) and energy expenditure2) and suppress body fat accumulation by long-term treatment3} in experimental animal studies. Although hot peppers and capsaicin may be used in a diet therapy for obesity, their usage as a food additive or a drug is limited by its strong pungency and nociceptive acti...
متن کاملEvaluation of Diabetogenic Mechanism of High Fat Diet in Combination with Arsenic Exposure in Male Mice
Obesity is a main reason of type 2 diabetes and also chronic exposure to arsenic (As)can produce diabetic symptoms. In previous studies, the association between high-fat dietand arsenic in the incidence of diabetes was found, but the role of beta cells activity, livermitochondrial oxidative stress, and hepatic enzymes (leptin, adiponectin and beta amylase)was unclear. Thus, present study was co...
