thermogenesis

[thur′mōjen′əsis]

Etymology: Gk, thermē + genesis, origin

production of heat, especially by the cells of the body. thermogenetic, adj.

thermogenesis [ther″mo-jen´ĕ-sis]

the production of heat, especially within the animal body. adj., adj thermogenet´ic, thermogen´ic.

thermogenesis

the production of heat, especially within the animal body.

diet-induced thermogenesis

a portion of dietary calories in excess of those required for immediate energy requirements are converted to heat rather than stored as fat. Some types of obesity may be related to a defect in this mechanism.

neonatal thermogenesis

thermogenesis is relatively inefficient in neonates, especially piglets, so that it becomes very important to protect them from cold stress. Most of their heat gain comes from the metabolism of their stores of brown fat.

nonshivering thermogenesis

increased heat production due to enhancement of normal calorigenic metabolic processes.

shivering thermogenesis

much the fastest thermogenic process which the static body can use. Shivering is an involuntary function with a tremor rate of about 10 per second.
