IMPACT OF PRENATAL PROGRAMMING ON BROWN ADIPOSE STRESS-RELATED CHANGES IN ADULTHOOD

Abstract

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is most obvious in small mammals and infant humans, but was often believed to be lost postnatally within the fi rst few years of the human life. Recent studies using positron emission tomography have demonstrated that healthy adult humans do possess signifi cant depots of metabolically active BAT. Regarding to its signifi cant capacity to control chemical energy, triglyceride and glucose metabolism, BAT could be a potential target for treatment obesity and metabolic syndrome.
