Detailed explanation-1: -It is mainly located in the upper back, above the clavicles, around the vertebrae, and in the mediastinum. The main role of brown adipose tissue is to generate heat through non-shivering thermogenesis; a process that’s especially important to prevent hypothermia in newborns.
Detailed explanation-2: -Brown adipose tissue (BAT) located in interscapular, subscapular, axillary, perirenal, and periaortic regions in rodents and interscapular, supraclavicular, and perivertebral regions in humans bestows energy consumption by nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) (1–6).
Detailed explanation-3: -Where is my adipose tissue? Adipose tissue is commonly known as body fat. It is found all over the body. It can be found under the skin (subcutaneous fat), packed around internal organs (visceral fat), between muscles, within bone marrow and in breast tissue.
