Evidence for increased thermogenesis in female C57BL/6J mice housed aboard the international space station - brown adipose tissue (BAT) data

Le résumé fourni par la source

Sixteen-week-old female C57BL/6J mice were sacrificed aboard the International Space Station after 37 days of flight (RR-1 mission) and frozen carcasses returned to Earth. RNA was isolated from interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT) and gonadal white adipose tissue (WAT). Spaceflight resulted in differential expression of genes in BAT consistent with increased non-shivering thermogenesis and differential expression of genes in WAT consistent with increased glucose uptake and metabolism, adipogenesis, and beta-oxidation. This study hosts BAT data, and the WAT data are available in OSD-970.
