Isothermal microcalorimetry measures UCP1-mediated thermogenesis in mature brite adipocytes

Bokhari et al. demonstrate mature murine brown and brite adipocytes produce quantifiable heat with β3-AR stimulation. They indicate that the essential component of this mechanism is UCP1 by using adipocytes lacking the protein.
