Fat Depot–Specific Characteristics Are Retained in Strains Derived From Single Human Preadipocytes
25 Aug 2006
Abstract excerpt
Fat depots vary in size, function, and potential contribution to disease. Since fat tissue turns over throughout life, preadipocyte characteristics could contribute to this regional variation. To address whether preadipocytes from different depots are distinct, we produced preadipocyte strains from single abdominal subcutaneous, mesenteric, and omental human preadipocytes by stably expressing human telomere...
