Abstract

Cytochrome oxidase activity and mitochondrial GDP binding were decreased in brown adipose tissue of mice treated chronically with corticosterone. These changes occurred both in corticosterone-treated mice fed ad libitum and in treated mice pair-fed to control animals. Although the dietary stimulation of brown-adipose-tissue thermogenesis was suppressed by corticosterone, the acute response to cold was not affected.
