Deficient primary cilia in obese adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells: obesity, a secondary ciliopathy?
17 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Obesity alters the composition, structure and function of adipose tissue, characterized by chronic inflammation, insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are responsible for cell renewal, spontaneous repair and immunomodulation in adipose tissue. Increasing evidence highlights that ASCs are deficient in obesity, and the underlying mechanisms are not well...
