The effect of ambient temperature on adipose tissue

Cannon Barbara

There are many effects on adipose tissue metabolism of housing mice at different temperatures. Considering the situation from a thermoregulatory perspective, it may – in retrospect – be evident that one cannot expect to observe any effect of e.g. UCP1 ablation under “normal housing” conditions. This is because at normal animal house conditions (≈20 °C), the mice experience significant cold, and they must increase their metabolism by 50-100 % (as ...
