Short-term Cold Exposure Induces Persistent Epigenomic Memory in Brown Adipose Tissue Background Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) is the primary non-shivering thermogenic organ in mammals that dissipates chemical energy as heat under cold stimuli. BAT is characterized by a high density of mitochondria containing Uncoupling Protein 1 (UCP1), which generat...
