1 Here, we demonstrate that the heart-type fatty acid-binding protein, FABP3, is essential for cold tolerance and efficient fatty acid oxidation in mouse brown adipose tissue, despite the abundant expression of adipose-type fatty acid-binding protein, FABP4 (also known as aP2). Fatty Acids fatty acid binding protein 3, muscle and heart Mus musculus

4 However, using FABP3 gain- and loss-of-function approaches in brown adipocytes, we detected a correlation between FABP3 levels and the utilization of exogenous fatty acids. Fatty Acids fatty acid binding protein 3, muscle and heart Mus musculus
5 However, using FABP3 gain- and loss-of-function approaches in brown adipocytes, we detected a correlation between FABP3 levels and the utilization of exogenous fatty acids. Fatty Acids fatty acid binding protein 3, muscle and heart Mus musculus
6 These results suggest that FABP3 levels are a determinant of fatty acid oxidation efficiency by brown adipose tissue and that FABP3 represents a potential target for modulation of energy dissipation. Fatty Acids fatty acid binding protein 3, muscle and heart Mus musculus
