Loss of Adipose Fatty Acid Oxidation Does Not Potentiate Obesity at Thermoneutrality

Ambient temperature affects energy intake and expenditure to maintain homeostasis in a continuously fluctuating environment. Here, mice with an adipose-specific defect in fatty acid oxidation (Cpt2A−/−) were subjected to varying temperatures to determine the role of adipose bioenergetics in environm...
