The Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor α is dispensable for cold-induced adipose tissue browning in mice

Objective: Chronic cold exposure causes white adipose tissue (WAT) to adopt features of brown adipose tissue (BAT), a process known as browning. Previous studies have hinted at a possible role for the transcription factor Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor alpha (PPARα) in cold-induced brown...
