Adipose cells and tissues soften with lipid accumulation while in diabetes adipose tissue stiffens

2022-02-10

Abstract excerpt

Adipose tissue expansion involves both differentiation of new precursors and size increase of mature adipocytes. While the two processes are well balanced in healthy tissues, obesity and diabetes type II are associated with abnormally enlarged adipocytes and excess lipid accumulation. We hypothesised that adipocyte shape and size changes with differentiation and lipid accumulation would be accompanied by changes i...
