Research demonstrates the role of brown adipose tissue in cardiometabolic health, highlighting epigenetic effects from environmental temperatures.
Recent work by Yoneshiro et al. links brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity to environmental temperatures during conception, highlighting intergenerational influences shaping BAT function. Here we explore how these findings translate into a cardiometabolic health phenotype and discuss how it can be mediated through sperm epigenetic programming.
