2. Regulation of Intracellular Calcium in Brown Adipocytes
Abstract : Intracellular Ca2+ is considered a primary regulator of cell function. In the present study, the control and the effects of intracellular Ca2+ in brown adipocytes have been investigated. Cytosolic Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) are the resultant of the activity of Ca2+ transport systems. READ MORE

3. Peroxisomal and mitochondrial fatty acid metabolism in brown adipose tissue and liver
Abstract : Brown adipose tissue (BAT) produces heat in response to cold. The heat produced is mainly due to oxidation of fatty acids. In animal tissues, fatty acid 9-oxidation has generally been assumed to occur in mitochondria. READ MORE

4. Modulators of UCP1-dependent thermogenesis : Glucocorticoids, diet and novel research models
Abstract : The activation and recruitment of brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis has been put forward as a promising strategy to reduce the disease burden of obesity and obesity-related diseases. Heat production by BAT can be attributed to the tissue-specific mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). READ MORE

5. Fishing the gene pool : Genetic structure, admixture and behavioural complexity in fisheries management
Abstract : Prudent management of marine fish resources relies on separation and management of biologically meaningful groups of conspecifics, termed fishery stocks, often depicted as self-sustaining, spatiotemporally separated and demographically independent entities. Such stock discrimination has however proven challenging. READ MORE
