Leucine Potentiates Glucose-mediated (18)F-FDG Uptake in Brown Adipose Tissue via β-Adrenergic Activation

Significant depots of brown adipose tissue (BAT) have been identified in many adult humans through positron emission tomography (PET), with the amount of BAT being inversely correlated with obesity. As dietary activation of BAT has implications for whole body glucose metabolism, leucine was used in...
