This project investigates the liver's role in adaptive thermogenesis, focusing on how it can generate heat under specific conditions. By analyzing molecular mechanisms and neural regulation, the research aims to uncover new insights into body temperature regulation and potential treatments for liver-related diseases.
Core body temperature is among the best-guarded constants in homeothermic species.
It results from the evolution of physiological mechanisms capable of regulating the production as well as the exchange of heat with the environment.
The objective of my proposal is to define a new role for the liver in adaptive thermogenesis whereby the liver will be involved in heat production under the regulation of the hepatic sympathetic nerve. I will first ascertain that the liver can generate extra heat when…
