科学家们接着将这些细胞转移到老鼠生产的棕色脂肪组织中。
The scientists then transplanted the cells into mice, where they produced brown fat tissue.
女性比男性的棕色脂肪组织量高并且18F –FDG吸收活性也较高。
Women also had a greater mass of brown adipose tissue and higher 18F-FDG uptake activity.
科学家成功在实验室内应用这种转化使其他类型的细胞制造棕色脂肪,即通常所说的棕色脂肪组织(BAT)。
With this switch in hand, the scientists showed they could manipulate it to force other types of cells in the laboratory to produce brown fat, known as Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT).
但是,正如考恩指出,“这当然令人兴奋,有可能找到控制白色脂肪组织的方法,使其更积极参与代谢,更像棕色脂肪。”
But, as Cowan notes, "it's certainly exciting that there may be a way to manipulate white adipose tissue to make it something that is more metabolically active and more brown fat-like."
这一实验显示,棕色脂肪移植物能够以极高的效率燃烧卡路里,这些卡路里如果不被燃烧就会转变为白色脂肪组织进行储存。
Tests showed that the brown fat transplants were burning caloric energy at a high rate -- energy that otherwise would have been stored as fat in white adipose tissue.
根据他的调查结果,赫齐格认为,棕色脂肪可能源自脂肪组织母细胞,默认情况下产生白色脂肪。
Based on his findings, Herzig believes that brown fat may originate from a mother cell of adipose tissue that by default tends to make white fat.
内脏脂肪与皮下脂肪均由白色的脂肪组织构成,被认为比被人称为棕色脂肪的那类脂肪更不健康。
Both visceral and subcutaneous fat are made of white adipose tissue and are thought to be less healthy than the type of fat known as brown fat.
这项研究着重于在小哺乳动物中观察日光和环境温度这两个主要因素是如何决定棕色脂肪组织的功能的。
The study focused on the impact of daylight and ambient temperature as these are two key factors in determining BAT function in small mammals.
目的:探讨全反式维甲酸(tRA )对大鼠棕色脂肪组织线粒体上解偶联蛋白(UCP)活性和含量的影响。
Objective: To evaluate effects of tRA on activity and content of UCP in rat brown adipose tissue mitochondria.
以不同动物棕色脂肪组织的亚线粒体片段为标本,对解偶联蛋白与各种嘌呤核苷酸结合的亲和程度进行测定。
Using brown adipose tissue submitochondrial particles from different kinds of animals, binding of uncoupling protein to different purine nucleotides was estimated.
新的研究显示在控制棕色脂肪组织涉及到肥胖时日光是一个主要的控制因素。

他们的结果显示棕色脂肪组织在女性中更多见,日光对棕色脂肪组织活动的影响比环境温度的影响更大。
Their results showed that BAT was more common in females and that changes in BAT activity were more closely associated with day light than ambient temperature.
然而,提高棕色脂肪组织的功能可以在一些人中预防或减少肥胖的产生。
Therefore, promoting BAT function could prevent or reduce obesity in some people.
