Brown adipose tissue oxidative metabolism contributes to energy expenditure during acute cold exposure in humans

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is vital for proper thermogenesis during cold exposure in rodents, but until recently its presence in adult humans and its contribution to human metabolism were thought to be minimal or insignificant. Recent studies using PET with (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)FDG) have sh...
