Definition
The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of creatine in a futile cycle, which dissipates the high energy charge of phosphocreatine as heat without performing any mechanical or chemical work. The futile creatine cycle takes place in thermogenic fat cells and is part of adaptive thermogenesis. Source: PMID:33597756, PMID:33981039
