Abstract excerpt
The identification of human obesity sub-types may improve the clinical management of patients with obesity and uncover previously unrecognized obesity mechanisms. Here, we hypothesized that adipose tissue (AT) mast cells (MC) estimation could be a mark for human obesity sub-phenotyping beyond current clinical-based stratifications, both cross-sectionally and prospectively. We estimated MC accumulation using...
