Clonal Mature Adipocyte Production of Proliferative-competent Daughter Cells Requires Lipid Export Prior to Cell Division

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Numerous in vitro observations have been published to show that mature adipocytes may resume proliferation and begin to populate the adipofibroblast fraction or form other cell types. METHODS AND RESULTS: In the present study, we evaluated clonal cultures of mature pig-derived adipocytes as they began to reestablish their ability to divide. The lipid contained within the cytoplasm was...
