Abstract in brief

  • Brown adipose tissue (BAT) helps maintain body temperature by generating heat through uncoupling proteins in its mitochondria, and recent discoveries of BAT in humans have sparked new research.
  • Additionally, white adipose tissue (WAT) can transform into beige-brite cells, which are more metabolically active and potentially offer health benefits like improved blood glucose levels and increased energy expenditure.
  • Developing therapies targeting BAT activation or WAT browning requires a deeper understanding of their biology, how they are regulated by hormones and nutrients, and the impact of interventions like diet, drugs, and exercise on these tissues and overall metabolism.]
