[The Na+-K+ pump and the thermogenesis of brown fatty tissue]

[Article in Russian]
L N Medvedev et al. Tsitologiia. 1991.

Abstract

Mechanisms of participation of Na+K(+)-pump in regulation of the brown adipose tissue are discussed. It is settled that the increase in ATP hydrolysis by Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is not a dominating factor of thermogenesis activation. It is assumed that the Na(+)-K(+)-pump, through the intracellular K+ concentration, serves a chain relating proliferation and thermogenesis of adipocytes.
