A new study by Reverte-Salisa and colleagues identifies a molecular mechanism through which the cAMP-mediating protein EPAC1 controls the size of brown and beige adipose tissue. This finding opens the door for the development of pharmacological interventions to prevent the decline of brown adipose tissue in obesity and ageing, and thereby improve metabolic health.
