The Mediating Role of Brown Fat and Skeletal Muscle Measured by 18 F-Fluorodeoxyglucose in the Thermoregulatory System in Young Adults.

CONCLUSIONS: BAT volume and metabolic activity play a role in the relationship between Personal-ET and WT. Moreover, the data suggest that there are two distinct phenotypes: individuals who respond better to the cold, both through nonshivering thermogenesis and peripheral vasoconstriction, and individuals who respond better to the heat.
