    Notes: [Auszug] BAT thermogenesis can be monitored by recording the tissue temperature, as Flaim et al.2 did when stimulating the sympathetic nerves supplying interscapular BAT. This is the largest and most accessible BAT depot and recordings can be made with minimal surgery. We therefore used the same approach to ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Measurement of energy balance during voluntary over-eating in rats unequivocally establishes the quantitative importance of diet-induced thermogenesis in energy balance. Like cold-induced thermogenesis, this form of heat production involves changes in the activity of the sympathetic nervous system ...

    Notes: [Auszug] In the first experiments, the activity of mitochondrial enzymes and the effect of purine nucleotides on mitochondrial respiration were determined with brown adipose tissue of normal and cafeteria-fed animals. Groups of adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats (Charles River) were maintained on either the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR - The excessive fat deposition and other genetic disorders seen in the obese ob/ob mouse has been shown to be due to a mutation (premature stop codon) in the ob gene1. Normally, the ob gene is expressed in adipose tissue, with the secreted circulating gene product, leptin, being thought to act ...

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR-There is no doubt that British universities could and should do more to recover a greater fraction of overheads from external research contracts than the 14 per cent reported by Science and Engineering Policy Studies Unit (SEPSU) (Nature 347, 506; 1990). Something like the old University Grants ...

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR - August Reader (sic) suggests that DREADCO biochemists should turn their attention away from metabolic sti-mulants and consider ancient transcen-dental techniques for generating 'magical heat' as a means to prevent hypothermia (Nature 361, 200; 1993). Unfortunately, many of these trance-like ...

    Effects of histamine antagonists on noradrenaline-stimulated blood flow and oxygen consumption of brown adipose tissue in the rat (1984)
    Springer
    Pflügers Archiv 402 (1984), S. 325-329

    ISSN: 1432-2013

    Notes: Abstract 1. The effects of histamine antagonists on noradrenaline-stimulated metabolic rate, tissue blood flow (estimated from the distribution of radiolabelled microspheres) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) oxygen extraction were studied in male anaesthetised rats. 2. Injection of cimetidine (H2-receptor antagonist), reduced the noradrenaline-stimulation of metabolic rate and the increase in blood flow to BAT, but did not affect blood flow to white adipose tissue, skin, leg muscle, kidney, brain, or testes. 3. Following noradrenaline, in vivo oxygen consumption of BAT, estimated from blood flow and oxygen extraction was depressed to 31% of control values by treatment with cimetidine, blood pressure was unaffected. 4. Injection of the histamine (H1-receptor) antagonist, mepyramine, did not affect tissue blood flow or metabolic rate. 5. In conscious animals, cimetidine did not affect resting oxygen consumption, but depressed the thermogenic responses to noradrenaline. 6. These data suggest that the stimulation of BAT blood flow and thermogenesis by noradrenaline may be mediated in part by histamine acting on an H2-type receptor.

    Acute effects of food, 2-deoxy-d-glucose and noradrenaline on metabolic rate and brown adipose tissue in normal and atropinised lean and obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats (1981)
    Springer
    Pflügers Archiv 392 (1981), S. 172-177

    ISSN: 1432-2013

    Notes: Abstract 1. Intragastric feeding (40 kJ) produced a 17% rise in metabolic rate in lean Zucker rats but only an 8% increase in obese (fa/fa) rats, and both of these responses were significantly reduced by β-adrenergic blockade with propranolol (10 mg/kg, s.c.). 2. Parasympathetic blockade with atropine (0.5 mg/kg, s.c.) caused a doubling of the response to food in lean rats and a threefold increase in the obese mutants, such that all atropinised animals showed the same increase in metabolic rate after food. 3. Feeding also caused a significant rise in interscapular brown adipose tissue temperature, which was greatest in the lean animals and was enhanced by atropine in both groups. 4. Injection of noradrenaline (250 μg/kg, s.c.) caused a similar (40%) rise in metabolic rate in lean and obese animals but this response was unaffected by atropine. 5. 2-Deoxy-d-glucose injection (360 mg/kg, s.c.) depressed oxygen consumption by 25 and 8% in lean and obese rats respectively and this effect was totally abolished by atropine. 6. These results suggest that the rise in metabolic rate after a meal is partly due to sympathetic activation of brown adipose tissue. The reduced thermic response in obese Zucker rats is not due to insensitivity to noradrenaline, but may be partly due to parasympathetic inhibition of thermogenesis and partly to insensitivity to glucose availability.

    Brown fat activity in fasted and refed rats (1984)
    Springer
    Bioscience reports 4 (1984), S. 351-357 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-4935
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract Four days of fasting in the rat reduced brown-adipose-tissue (BAT) mass, mitochondrial protein, and tissue protein content. Specific binding of guanosine diposphate (GDP) to BAT mitochondria was depressed by 55% in 4d-fasted rats. Rats fasted for 3 d, and then refed a single carbohydrate meal (40 kJ), showed a significant increase in specific GDP-binding (27% above fasted) 24 h later, and a large increase in total binding. Specific activities of cytochrome oxidase and α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase in BAT mitochondria were not significantly affected by fasting or refeeding. These results suggest that BAT may be partly responsible for the fall in metabolic rate associated with fasting and the delayed increase after carbo-hydrate refeeding. These effects may be due to changes in the mitochondrial proton-conductance pathway in brown fat.
