Abstract Aging, chronic high-fat diet feeding, or housing at thermoneutrality induces brown adipose tissue (BAT) involution, a process characterized by reduction of BAT mass and function with increased lipid droplet size. Single nuclei RNA sequencing aged mice identifies specific adipocyte population Ucp1 -low cells that are pyroptotic display in the longevity gene syntaxin 4 ( Stx4a ). Similar to adipocytes, Ucp1-STX4KO loss thermogenic dysfunction concomitant pyroptosis. Restoration STX4...
