Artificial Polychromatic Light Affects Growth and Physiology in Chicks
Despite the overwhelming use of artificial light on captive animals, its effect on those animals has rarely been studied experimentally. Housing animals in controlled light conditions is useful for assessing the effects of light. The chicken is one of the best-studied animals in artificial light experiments, and here, we evaluate the effect of polychromatic light with various green and blue com...
متن کاملNew concepts in white adipose tissue physiology
Numerous studies address the physiology of adipose tissue (AT). The interest surrounding the physiology of AT is primarily the result of the epidemic outburst of obesity in various contemporary societies. Briefly, the two primary metabolic activities of white AT include lipogenesis and lipolysis. Throughout the last two decades, a new model of AT physiology has emerged. Although AT was consider...
متن کاملThyroid-stimulating hormone receptor in brown adipose tissue is involved in the regulation of thermogenesis.
C.RF- Tshr(hyt/hyt) mice have a mutated thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR), and, without thyroid hormone supplementation, these mice develop severe hypothyroidism. When hypothyroid Tshr(hyt/hyt) mice were exposed to cold (4 degrees C), rectal temperature rapidly dropped to 23.9 +/- 0.40 degrees C at 90 min, whereas the wild-type mice temperatures were 37.0 +/- 0.15 degrees C. When we c...
متن کاملαMSH prevents ROS-induced apoptosis by inhibiting Foxo1/mTORC2 in mice adipose tissue
Alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (αMSH) is an important adenohypophysis polypeptide hormone that regulates body metabolic status. To date, it is well known that the disorder of hypothalamic αMSH secretion is related to many metabolic diseases, such as obesity and type II diabetes. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In our study, we focused on the reactive oxygen speci...
متن کاملComparative physiology of brown adipose tissue.
It has been unequivocally established that brown adipose tissue (BAT) functions as a thermogenic organ (for review, see Trayhum & Nicholls, 1986). In addition to functioning as an organ of thermoregulatory thermogenesis, can BAT alternatively, or additionally, act as a site of regulatory thermogenesis in energy balance regulation? Put another way, does BAT play a role in nutritional energetics?...
