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.
现在,他说,研究人员可集中精力到这方面来:能否利用褐色脂肪组织的这种特性,或者说是用药物来刺激它的活性,来帮助超重的人把燃烧掉那些多余的白色脂肪。
Now, he says, researchers can focus on whether we can harness brown fat — perhaps by spurring its activity with drugs — to help overweight patients burn off unsightly and unhealthy white fat.
白色脂肪组织用来贮存消化吸收而来的多余能量,而褐色脂肪组织则消耗能量来产生热量,它内部充满着大量的线粒体,因此看上去是褐色的。
White fat, or white adipose tissue, is the jiggly stuff that stores spare energy from food. By contrast, brown adipose tissue consumes energy to generate body heat.
巨噬细胞吞噬白色脂肪组织的范围是与肥胖的程度相关的。
The extent of macrophage accumulation in WAT correlated with the degree of adiposity.
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.
目的探讨不同饲料构成对大鼠白色脂肪组织解偶联蛋白-2基因表达的影响。
Objective To explore effects of different diet composition on uncoupling proteins 2(UCP2) gene expression of rat white adipose tissue.
实验结果证明菌粉治疗作用的靶位点之一是白色脂肪组织,可引起小鼠体质量显著性下降;
The result suggested that the white adipose tissue may be one of the main therapeutic targets, resulting in the reduction of body weight;
说明能量能诱导大鼠褐色脂肪组织ucp1和白色脂肪组织ucp2基因表达,但降低骨骼肌ucp3基因的表达。
Energy can induce the expression of gene of UCP1 in rat BAT and UCP2 in WAT, but decrease the expression of gene of UCP3 in skeletal muscle.
说明能量能诱导大鼠褐色脂肪组织ucp1和白色脂肪组织ucp2基因表达,但降低骨骼肌ucp3基因的表达。
Energy can induce the expression of gene of UCP1 in rat BAT and UCP2 in WAT, but decrease the expression of gene of UCP3 in skeletal muscle.
