adipose tissue
|
• pale axillary and cervical brown adipose tissue depots
• however, tissue mass is not altered
|
|
• in the interscapular brown adipose tissue of mice older than 6 months
|
|
• in the interscapular brown adipose tissue of mice older than 6 months
|
|
• whitening in mice older than 6 months with increased size of the tissue, a switch from multilocular to unilocular morphology, and increased lipid content
|
|
• in unstimulated interscapular brown adipose tissue
|
|
• whitening in mice older than 6 months with increased size of the tissue, a switch from multilocular to unilocular morphology, and increased lipid content
• 3 week old mice fed a high-fat diet exhibit loss of normal brown adipocyte morphology unlike wild-type mice
|
|
• in mice older than 6 months
• however, juvenile mice exhibit normal sized brown adipose tissue depots
|
|
• precipitous drop in body temperature following exposure to cold
• however, diet-induced thermogenesis is normal
|
|
• reduced basal in interscapular brown adipose tissue
|
homeostasis/metabolism
|
• precipitous drop in body temperature following exposure to cold

growth/size/body
|
• at all ages
|
