Abstract

The brown adipose tissue (BAT) regulates energy expenditure via thermogenesis by uncoupling protein 1 (UPC-1). We investigated the effect of the maternal diet enriched with trans-fatty acids (TFAs) in combination or not with jussara fruit supplementation on the 21 day old offspring. Specifically, we looked at the proinflammatory state and the expression of UCP-1 in the offsprings' BAT.
