Abstract
There are three types of adipose tissue: white adipose tissue that stores energy, brown adipose tissue that expends energy, and beige adipose tissue which results from the browning of white adipose tissue. Research has established that adipose tissue is vital for energy metabolism. However, the complex regulatory mechanisms limit the development of effective therapeutic strategies for obesity and related metabolic diseases. This review explores the characteristics and functions of adipose tissue types, emphasizing the role of central hypothalamic nuclei in regulating peripheral adipose tissue function Additionally, it provides a summary and comparison of current research on leveraging brown and beige adipose tissue thermogenesis as a treatment for metabolic diseases, offering insights for the advancement of targeted therapies for obesity and related disorders.
