Abstract
THE dominant role of striated muscles and the minimal participation of visceral organs in non-shivering thermogenesis of cold-acclimatized rats have been already demonstrated1–3. However, the significance of the liver in non-shivering thermogenesis remains still uncertain, because of relative inaccessibility of this organ for direct in vivo measurements of arteriovenous differences and of blood flow during cold exposure.
