If we could avoid the side effects associated with global sympathetic activation, activating brown adipose tissue to increase thermogenesis would be a safe way to lose weight. The discovery of adrenergic-independent brown fat activators opens the prospect of developing this alternative way to efficiently and safely induce negative energy balance.Mesh:
