GPR120 is a G-protein-coupled receptor that binds polyunsaturated fatty acids. Here, the authors show that GPR120 is upregulated in brown fat in cold-exposed mice, and mediates thermogenic activation of brown fat via a mechanism that, at least in part, depends on the release of the adipokine FGF21.
