The magnitude of the adrenergic response in animals that have been housed at their thermoneutral temperature is a fairly close approximation Fig. Effect of cold acclimation on the thermogenic response to norepinephrine NE.
NE was injected into wild-type mice which can produce heat in their brown adipose tissue and into UCP1-ablated mice UCP1 KO which are unable to do this ; the mice were acclimated to 30 or 4°C for at least 1 mo.
There was no effect of the presence or absence of UCP1 with regard to the basal metabolic rate before norepinephrine injection. Acclimation to cold led to some increase in basal respiration probably related to the effects of the several-times larger food intake in these mice.
Cold acclimation had no effect on the response to NE in the UCP1 KO mice. Only in the mice that possess UCP1 does acclimation to cold result in an increased response to NE. It corresponds to the development of adaptive nonshivering thermogenesis, and the increase due to cold acclimation represents the recruitment of brown adipose tissue i.
the mice get more brown-fat cells, with more mitochondria and more UCP1 [V. Golozoubova, B. and J. Golozoubova et al. In animals with an extremely high capacity for nonshivering thermogenesis and with a good insulation, such a high heat production may be induced by norepinephrine that the animal becomes hyperthermic, as it cannot dissipate heat, and then this type of experiment cannot be undertaken.
Nonshivering thermogenic capacity can be determined in awake, non-anaesthetized animals Jansky et al. Principally, an acute stress response is induced by the injection itself, in addition to the direct norepinephrine-induced thermogenesis. To improve the reproducibility of the measurements and decrease the number of animals required, anaesthetized animals can be studied.
It is not possible to use inhalation anaesthetics as these inhibit brown fat activity Ohlson et al. The anaesthetized animal is placed in a small-volume measuring chamber at a temperature a few degrees higher than thermoneutral 33°C is needed for a mouse , in order to maintain its body temperature Golozoubova et al.
After an adequate period of measurement to estimate the basal metabolic rate, the animal is removed and injected with norepinephrine and returned to the chamber.
The metabolic rate will rise and plateau Fig. The increase over basal is the nonshivering thermogenic capacity plus the pharmacological response to norepinephrine. Basically, norepinephrine tests can therefore only be used to compare the difference in magnitude of the response between different conditions e.
g warm- and cold-acclimated animals ; the absolute magnitude of nonshivering thermogenesis cannot be obtained by this method in itself. It is important to distinguish between adrenergic thermogenesis and nonshivering thermogenesis.
is a thermoregulatory thermogenesis. In general, this is probably not the case. It is no surprise that different organs display increased oxygen consumption thermogenesis when stimulated with norepinephrine.
In these organs, the cognate metabolic processes are stimulated, and any such stimulation leads to thermogenesis. Thus, norepinephrine stimulation of the salivary gland leads to increased oxygen consumption Terzic and Stoji, , as does stimulation of the liver Binet and Claret, These reactions have never been discussed to represent thermoregulatory thermogenesis; the heat is simply a by-product of the increased metabolism related to increased secretion, etc.
Only because muscle is traditionally discussed as being a thermogenic organ are similar adrenergically induced responses in muscle discussed as representing a form of thermoregulatory thermogenesis.
Importantly, these brown-fat-independent types of adrenergic thermogenesis have never been shown to be adaptive. This means that they are not recruited during acclimation to cold or adaptation to diet, and they are therefore not part of a thermoregulatory process. Particularly in humans, there are many results from studies using infusions of adrenergic agents and measurements of oxygen consumption Blaak et al.
These studies are, for the reasons stated above, probably not relevant for the type of thermogenesis discussed here, i. thermoregulatory nonshivering thermogenesis or diet-induced thermogenesis.
To our knowledge, there are no indications that this thermogenesis is adaptive. Additionally, there is the problem that the adrenergic concentrations achieved during infusion, particularly in humans, may be so low that only a hormonal action of adrenergic agonists is induced; i.
the levels may not be high enough to reach the postsynaptic areas in a sufficiently high concentration. In that case, brown adipose tissue may not be stimulated at all. The problem with the pharmacological response to norepinephrine can to some extent be overcome by using a specific β 3 -adrenergic agonist, notably CL, As β 3 -adrenergic receptors are only found in high density in adipose tissues, and as white adipose tissue is nearly inert with respect to oxygen consumption, the response seen would mainly emanate from brown adipose tissue, i.
However, the response may not represent the true capacity of brown adipose tissue because β 3 - and β 1 -adrenoreceptors may be needed to elicit the total β-adrenergic response, and there may be an α-adrenergic component Mohell et al.
Thus, only with norepinephrine is it certain that the entire thermogenic response is induced. Metabolic chambers measure the rate of oxygen consumption, and the outcome is thus in litres of oxygen per unit time.
This is an approximation of the total heat production but, because the thermal equivalent of an oxygen molecule is different when carbohydrate or fat is combusted, conversion factors depending on the respiratory quotient should be used to convert the oxygen consumption values to energy W. This is particularly important if the food composition is changed from carbohydrate to fat or during day-and-night measurements when the animals change from burning a mixed diet active phase to burning stored fat inactive phase.
The problems occurring by expressing metabolism per kg body weight. The animals symbolized have similar amounts of normal tissue black but different amounts of white adipose tissue grey. Thus, to express metabolic rates per body weight or to any power of body weight leads to misleading conclusions.
In studies of all types of metabolism, there is one major difficulty in interpretation and representation of the results: the denominator or the divisor, i. how the results should be expressed. If the animals are of the same size and body composition, there is no problem, but very often this is not the case.
It may initially seem natural to express metabolism per gram body weight; however, in reality, animals are often studied that have become obese, e.
due to a diet intervention or a genetic alteration. Such animals may have identical amounts of active lean tissue but are carrying expanded amounts of lipid around in their white adipose tissue Fig.
Lipid as a chemical is totally metabolically inert, and in no way contributes to metabolism. However, if the metabolic rate is expressed per gram body weight, and one animal carries extra weight in the form of lipid, the metabolic rate expressed in this way will appear smaller in the obese animal.
This is evidently not an adequate description. By contrast, if a treatment leads to leanness, the lipid carried around is less, the divisor is smaller and thus we have an explanation for leanness: enhanced thermogenesis Fig.
Although these considerations would seem banal, the literature overflows with results calculated this way and conclusions based on these results. The problem has been repeatedly addressed, but still seems to persist Himms-Hagen, ; Butler and Kozak, In an apparently more advanced way, metabolic rates and thermogenic capacities can be expressed per gram body weight raised to some power.
Most often the conversion is to grams raised to the power 0. Firstly, evidently this in no way eliminates the problem discussed above; lipid is still inert even if raised to any power. Secondly, the power 0.
mice and elephants. It turns out that the metabolism increases in proportion to the body weight to the power 0. For mathematical reasons, the power raising makes nearly no difference if, for example, mice with only somewhat different body weights are compared, and it should therefore only be used for comparisons between species.
Occasionally, the power 0. This is the geometrical relationship between the surface area and the volume weight of a sphere or cube. The power relationship is of significance if thermal balance is discussed — but to use it to express rates of metabolism implies that all metabolism is due to heat loss to the surroundings, which is of course not the case.
The difference between the powers 0. What, then, is the solution to the dilemma of the divisor? The easiest — and in most circumstances most correct — solution is simply to give the results as per animal. A more sophisticated, and on occasion advantageous, solution is to express the rate per gram lean body mass.
Even to express the metabolic rates per gram lean mass assumes that all lean mass in the body has an equal metabolic rate. This is not the case; therefore, although lean mass is a better approximation, it is not without its own problems.
After all, if the modification studied should be causative of the development of obesity or protection against obesity , the altered metabolic rate should be present before the new phenotype becomes evident.
Brown adipose tissue is an admirable defence mechanism against cold. It has an impressively high oxidative capacity and thermogenic activity per gram of tissue and provides chronically cold-exposed mammals with a comfortable means of defending body temperature.
As pointed out above, in its absence, shivering will function but shivering is notably less comfortable than nonshivering thermogenesis and will impose restrictions on the animal's freedom of movement. Some 30 years ago, it was observed that a nonshivering thermogenic capacity could also be recruited by exposing rodents to so-called cafeteria diets or, later, to high-fat diets Rothwell and Stock, The mechanism of recruitment of brown adipose tissue under these conditions has not been clarified but it presumably involves activation of the sympathetic nervous system either directly by components in the diet as has been the general view or secondarily to the developing obesity as such.
It was proposed that animals that could develop brown adipose tissue in this way could use its thermogenic capacity to combust excess energy in the diet and thus not become as obese as otherwise expected.
Extensive studies by many groups have supported this view Cannon and Nedergaard, but see Maxwell et al. The magnitude of the increase in metabolic rate induced by injected norepinephrine is enhanced following dietary treatment, in a manner similar to that following cold acclimation i.
classical nonshivering thermogenesis Rothwell and Stock, ; Feldmann et al. The increases seen are smaller, but it would seem to be an adaptive process, as is classical nonshivering thermogenesis. Also note that this metabolic increase is in addition to that caused by the direct metabolic costs of digesting the food.
Whereas the purpose of classical nonshivering thermogenesis is clear, that of diet-induced thermogenesis is not equally evident.
There are indications that the magnitude of diet-induced thermogenesis is related to the protein content of the diet. An adequate explanation for the development of diet-induced thermogenesis was proposed by Stock: if diets with inadequate protein or another essential nutrient content — i.
unbalanced diets — were eaten to the extent that sufficient protein was ingested, a system had to exist to remove the excess of energy that this extra ingestion had incurred Stock, This system would thus be brown adipose tissue. Good experimental evidence for this hypothesis is still lacking.
If an animal does use brown fat thermogenesis to regulate its amount of stored body fat, it would be reasonable to assume that in the absence of active brown fat such as in an animal lacking UCP1 , the animal would become obese, provided it maintained the same energy intake.
It was therefore initially surprising perhaps even disappointing that the UCP1-ablated mice did not develop obesity Enerbäck et al.
However, later studies performed in mice housed at their thermoneutral temperature showed a development of obesity even on a regular chow diet, and to a greater extent on a high-fat diet Feldmann et al. This indicates that even the very small amount of UCP1 present in the wild-type mice at thermoneutrality is actually effective in modulating body fat content, its absence is not compensated by other means, and the absence is sufficient for obesity to occur.
Animals living at their thermoneutral temperatures are not under any cold stress and, therefore, clearly do not have UCP1 and brown fat for this reason.
Brown fat is classically recruited in parallel with decreasing ambient temperatures. The presence of some active brown fat even at thermoneutrality can be taken to indicate that it indeed has a physiological function.
Surprisingly, mice without UCP1 are protected against diet-obesity when studied under normal animal house conditions. The reason for this is still not clarified but this is not a unique outcome for UCP1-ablated mice.
Even mice with UCP1 i. wild-type mice are protected against obesity if they are placed in a cold environment; however, the degree of cold needed for this protection is higher for wild-type than for UCP1-ablated mice Cannon and Nedergaard, Perhaps the most important reason to acquire a thermal understanding when approaching studies of metabolism is to not be misled by false positive observations and thus to invest scientific time and effort in metabolic phenomena that are secondary to thermal regulation rather than to truly altered metabolism.
The risk of false positives. If, for example, a mutant mouse has fur with a decreased insulation, the slope of the thermal control curve becomes higher.
If this mouse is only maintained and examined at normal temperature here 24°C , it will display a higher metabolism a than the control. The mutant thus appears to be hypermetabolic. In reality, it feels much colder than the wild-type mouse, i.
it feels like the wild-type mouse would feel if it were shifted to a lower temperature where the same metabolism would be needed b ; that is it feels as if it were at 14°C c. It will therefore display all the features expected of mice at 14°C, e. All of these effects are, however, secondary to the animal feeling colder and will disappear if the mouse is kept and examined at thermoneutrality.
Such examinations are rarely performed. As seen, the mouse of interest for thermoregulatory reasons necessarily shows an increased metabolism a thermogenesis , which wrongly suggests that it has an enhanced metabolism due to some metabolic pathway being modified.
the appearance of UCP1-containing cells in white adipose tissue depots Xue et al. All of these observations would undoubtedly be formally correct, but when the thermoregulatory responses of the mouse are examined, these results become trivial in the sense that they are all consequences of decreased insulation.
Thus, as indicated in Fig. In this example, all differences would thus be ascribable to the expected effects of feeling colder.
The fact that this is more than a theoretical situation has been demonstrated several times recently. For example, a mouse without the fatty acid elongase Elovl3 demonstrated the above characteristics and was experimentally shown to have decreased insulation Westerberg et al. Similarly, the global absence of stearoyl CoA dehydrogenase 1 SCD1 leads to this type of apparently hypermetabolic phenotype Ntambi et al.
Thus, the metabolic changes can be explained by the altered skin phenotype, the resultant increased heat loss and the effects of this resultant increased metabolism. The risk of false negatives.
If a mutant animal truly has a decreased intrinsic metabolic rate but unchanged body temperature and insulation, it will not display a metabolic rate different from the wild type if kept and examined at normal temperatures a.
Only if examined so as to establish the thermoneutral zone of the animal will the decreased metabolism become evident b. This is the case for thyroid receptor null mutants Golozoubova et al.
It is likely that many mutants or treatments with true effects on intrinsic metabolism have been overlooked because they have only been examined under conditions where their metabolic rate is controlled by the ambient temperature.
Other genetically modified mice have also been shown to exhibit changes in fur and skin properties together with resistance to diet-induced obesity; these include the global knock-out of acyl coenzyme A:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 DGAT1 Smith et al.
Again, it is unlikely that these modifications truly affect intrinsic metabolism; rather, the outcome is due to thermoregulatory thermogenesis.
In addition, mice that lack the thyroid hormone receptor α show an increased metabolism, etc. at 22°C but not at thermoneutrality Marrif et al.
The most probable explanation for this is again an insulation problem although the authors propose another mechanism.
It is likely that a number of recently published metabolic phenotypes where, for example, activation of brite adipose tissue has been demonstrated may in reality be due to alterations in insulation. As these mice have not been examined after housing at thermoneutrality, it cannot be excluded that they demonstrate a thermoregulatory phenotype rather than the metaboloregulatory phenotype advocated.
Thus, we would suggest that concerning many of these genetically modified mice, the metabolic effects observed resistance to diet-induced obesity in combination with higher metabolism at normal animal house temperatures and activation of brown and brite adipose tissues are the same that would be observed by e.
simply shaving the mice. The phenotype is thus mainly or fully secondary to the loss of insulation. A scientifically equally disturbing problem — or perhaps an even larger problem — is that housing animals at normal temperatures may mask true metabolic phenotypes.
As seen in Fig. One clear example is the UCP1-ablated mouse that does not, as noted above, demonstrate an obesity-prone phenotype when kept at normal temperature Enerbäck et al. However, when thermoregulatory metabolism is switched off when the mice are housed at thermoneutrality, the lack of metaboloregulatory thermogenesis becomes evident and the mice become obese Feldmann et al.
There are other examples of thermoregulatory thermogenesis resulting from keeping the mice at normal animal house temperatures obscuring alterations in intrinsic metabolism.
Thus, mice that lack the mitochondrial glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase gene DosSantos et al. In a broader sense, mice at thermoneutrality may be said to become more humanized in that, for example, their control of heart activity changes from being sympathetic to being vagal Swoap et al.
Also, effects of pyrogens are only evident at thermoneutrality, not at normal room temperatures Rudaya et al. In addition, the serum lipid pattern becomes closer to those of humans data not shown. As studies on mice are often performed to mimic a human situation, it is clearly most appropriate to house mice at thermoneutrality.
Few genetic modifications and few agents developed for metabolic control have been examined in animals living at thermoneutrality. Therefore, there is a great risk that several important candidate genes and several promising agents have been overlooked and dismissed as a result of the experiments being performed under conditions where metaboloregulatory processes are overshadowed by thermoregulatory processes.
Mainly for practical reasons and for the comfort of the animal house personnel, animal house temperatures are normally in the range of 18 to 20°C. However, this is not the case. This is most evident if the mouse is allowed to choose its thermal environment.
In experiments with temperature gradients, the mice always choose temperatures of approximately 30°C Gordon et al.
Similarly, if a mouse is given the direct choice between an environment at 20°C or at 30°C, it chooses 30°C [see e. wild-type mouse behaviour in supplementary video 1 in Bautista et al. Bautista et al. Thus, mice, just as humans, prefer to live under conditions of thermoneutrality.
The attempts to humanize mice to gain insights into human metabolism have acquired a much broader significance during the last few years.
For decades, it has been assumed that adult humans do not possess active brown adipose tissue, and studies of nonshivering thermogenesis have, therefore, been seen as being only of academic interest. The insight that a significant fraction of adult humans possess brown adipose tissue Nedergaard et al.
