“…Menthol has been identified as a potent agonist of the transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) channel (Xu, Han, et al, 2020) to increase EE in rats (Vizin et al, 2018) and mice (Ma et al, 2012; McKie et al, 2022). Menthol could induce BAT thermogenesis by up‐regulating UCP1 expression via the Ca 2+ ‐dependent protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation (Ma et al, 2012) and via TRPM8‐norepinephrine‐β3AR signaling (McKie et al, 2022). Menthol also promotes iWAT browning in HFD‐fed mice (Jiang, Zhai, et al, 2017) and thermogenic gene expression in white adipocytes (Khare et al, 2019) by increasing the intracellular Ca 2+ concentration to promote PKA phosphorylation via activating TRPM8 (Jiang, Zhai, et al, 2017).…”
