Shivering Thermogenesis in Birds and Mammals
Shivering is the only universal facultative thermogenic mechanism in endothermic vertebrates. Skeletal muscle constitutes a large proportion of body mass and a high scope of metabolic rate, and thus heat production, between resting level and active contraction. Its contractile activity is under rapid and accurate neural control. Together with the inherently low metabolic efficiency of muscle, t...
متن کاملFueling shivering thermogenesis during passive hypothermic recovery.
In humans, the relative importance of oxidative fuels for sustaining shivering during passive hypothermic recovery or rewarming is still unclear. The main goals of this study were 1) to quantify the respective contributions of lipids and carbohydrates (CHO) during passive rewarming and 2) to determine the effects of precooling exercise on the pattern of fuel utilization. With indirect calorimet...
متن کاملThe brown and brite adipocyte marker Cox7a1 is not required for non-shivering thermogenesis in mice
The cytochrome c oxidase subunit isoform Cox7a1 is highly abundant in skeletal muscle and heart and influences enzyme activity in these tissues characterised by high oxidative capacity. We identified Cox7a1, well-known as brown adipocyte marker gene, as a cold-responsive protein of brown adipose tissue. We hypothesised a mechanistic relationship between cytochrome c oxidase activity and Cox7a1 ...
متن کاملMuscle Non-shivering Thermogenesis and Its Role in the Evolution of Endothermy
The development of sustained, long-term endothermy was one of the major transitions in the evolution of vertebrates. Thermogenesis in endotherms does not only occur via shivering or activity, but also via non-shivering thermogenesis (NST). Mammalian NST is mediated by the uncoupling protein 1 in the brown adipose tissue (BAT) and possibly involves an additional mechanism of NST in skeletal musc...
متن کاملShivering and digestion-related thermogenesis in pigeons during dark phase.
The pigeon's main source of regulated heat production, shivering, is especially likely to be used for thermoregulation during the dark phase of the day when there is little heat from locomotor activity. However, food stored in the pigeon's crop is digested during the night, and digestion-related thermogenesis (DRT) will provide heat that should decrease the need for shivering to maintain body t...
