Scavenger receptor class B type I is required for efficient glucose uptake and metabolic homeostasis in adipocytes
2023-08-22
Abstract excerpt
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic and places individuals at a higher risk for developing comorbidities that include cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Adipose tissue contains adipocytes that are responsible for lipid metabolism and reducing misdirected lipid storage.
