The role of the brown adipose tissue in β3-adrenergic receptor activation-induced sleep, metabolic and feeding responses
Abstract Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system via β3-adrenergic receptors (β3-AR). Here we tested the hypothesis that pharmacological stimulation of β3-ARs leads to increased sleep in mice and if this change is BAT dependent. In wild-type (WT) animals, administra...
