Abstract
⺠Araquidonic acid (AA) is a mitogen for brown adipocytes inducing DNA synthesis. ⺠NE increases the mitogenic action of AA, growth factors and NE. ⺠AA increases the action of other mitogens of brown adipocytes. ⺠The mitogenic actions of AA and other mitogens are mediated through PKC and MAPK. ⺠PKC delta seems involved in AA-induced proliferation.
