Horticulture, Egerton University, Kenya, 1996, May, 2005 DEDICATIONS I would like to dedicate this dissertation to my son, Ashford Kimani Kamau. Your age marks the life of my graduate school career. I have been a weekend dad, broke and with enormous financial responsibilities; it kills me to see how sometimes you cry your heart out on Sunday evening when our weekend time together is over. I miss you too every moment, you have encouraged me to be a better person, a better dad so that I can make you proud. At your tender age, I have learned a lot from you. We will soon spend all the time in the world we need together; travel, sports, music, pre-historic discoveries and adventures; the road is wide open. -

Irisin is released from myocytes during physical activity, and acts as a link between muscles and other tissues and organs. This myokine is produced as a result of proteolytic cleavage of FNDC5 protein present in the membrane of myocytes. Secretion of irisin is regulated by N-linked oligosaccharides attached to the protein molecule. The two N-glycan molecules, which constitute a significant part of the irisin glycoprotein, regulate the browning of adipocytes, which is the most important function of irisin. A receptor specific for irisin has still not been discovered. In some tissues irisin probably acts via integrins, which are widely expressed transmembrane receptors. Many studies have confirmed the multifunctional role of irisin and the beneficial effects of this molecule on body homeostasis. -
Exclusive Occurrence of Thermogenin Antigen in Brown Adipose Tissue

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed to demonstrate and quantitate the occurrence of thermogenin antigen in small amounts of tissue, and thus to characterize different depots of fat tissue as white or brown. The extreme sensitivity of the method allows determination of thermogenin in samples equivalent to < 1 mg tissue. The results indicate that thermogenin seems to be exclusively localised in brown fat mitochondria (as compared to white fat, liver or heart muscle mitochondria), and thermogenin antigen could only be found in brown adipocytes (as compared to white adipocytes). Thus, brown and white adipose tissue are probably ontogenetically different Brown adipose tissue ELISA Mitochondria Nonshivering thermogenesis Thermogenin White adipose tissue 1.

Forum Review Mitochondrial Uncoupling Proteins in the Central Nervous System JEONG SOOK KIM-HAN1 and LAURA L. DUGAN1,2,3 ABSTRACT Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCPs), a subfamily of the mitochondrial transporter family, are related by sequence homology to UCP1. This protein, which is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, dissi- pates the proton gradient between the intermembrane space and the mitochondrial matrix to uncouple elec- tron transport from ATP synthesis. UCP1 (thermogenin) was first discovered in brown adipose tissue and is responsible for non-shivering thermogenesis. Expression of mRNA for three other UCP isoforms, UCP2, UCP4, and BMCP1/UCP5, has been found at high levels in brain.
