Multiple regulatory steps are involved in the control of lipoprotein lipase activity in brown adipose tissue.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) supplies brown adipose tissue with fatty acids for nonshivering thermogenesis. In brown adipose tissue of the Djungarian hamster we studied i) the molecular mechanisms involved in cold-induced stimulation of LPL activity, ii) the adrenergic control of LPL expression, and iii...
