Initial Assessment of β-Adrenoceptor-Activated Brown Adipose Tissue in Streptozotocin-Induced Type 1 Diabetes Rodent Model Using [F]Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

Initial Assessment of β-Adrenoceptor-Activated Brown Adipose Tissue in Streptozotocin-Induced Type 1 Diabetes Rodent Model Using [F]Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

Metabolic activity of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is activated by β 3 -adrenoceptor agonists and norepinephrine transporter (NET) blockers and is measurable using [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([ 18 F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in rats. Using the streptozotocin (STZ)-t...
