Independent Stem Cell Lineages Regulate Adipose Organogenesis and Adipose Homeostasis
24 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
Adipose tissues have striking plasticity, highlighted by childhood and adult obesity. Using adipose lineage analyses, smooth muscle actin (SMA)-mural cell-fate mapping, and conditional PPARγ deletion to block adipocyte differentiation, we find two phases of adipocyte generation that emanate from two independent adipose progenitor compartments: developmental and adult. These two compartments are sequentially...
