No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is focused on measuring mitochondrial activity of human brown adipose tissue. During surgery, adipose tissue biopsies from white and brown adipose tissue will be collected from the deep neck area. These biopsies will be used to examine mitochondrial function via histological analysis, biochemical analysis and in vitro experiments based on precursor cells present in the biopsies.
