Using electron microscopy in situ immunocytochemistry of uncoupling protein 1 and F1-ATP synthase in the interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT) in golden Syrian hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) we confirmed that profound changes in the enzymatic apparatus of BAT mitochondrial membranes, leading to formation of thermogenic mitochondria, occur after the 2nd week of hamster postnatal development.
