The human uncoupling protein-1 gene (UCP1): present status and perspectives in obesity research

Summary Energy expenditure through brown adipose tissue thermogenesis contributes either to maintenance of body temperature in a cold environment or to wasted food energy, i.e. cold‐induced or diet‐induced thermogenesis. Both mechanisms are due to a specific and unique protein: the uncoupling protei...
