To determine the differences between brown adipocytes from interscapular brown tissue
(iBAT) and those induced in white adipose tissue (WAT) with respect to their thermogenic
capacity, we examined two essential characteristics: the dynamics of mitochondrial turnover
during reversible transitions from 29° C to 4° C and the quantitative relationship between
UCP1 and selected subunits of mitochondrial respiratory complex in the fully recruited state.
To follow the kinetics of induction and involution of mitochondria, we determined the …
