Obesity-induced senescent macrophages activate a fibrotic transcriptional program in adipocyte progenitors
18 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
Adipose tissue fibrosis is regulated by the chronic and progressive metabolic imbalance caused by differences in caloric intake and energy expenditure. By exploring the cellular heterogeneity within fibrotic adipose tissue, we demonstrate that early adipocyte progenitor cells expressing both platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) α and β are the major contributors to extracellular matrix deposition. We...
