Investigating the role of WT1-expressing progenitors and the function of WT1 in visceral adipose tissue angiogenesis

2021-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Unlike brown or subcutaneous white adipose tissue, visceral white adipose tissue (VWAT) is closely linked to cardiometabolic disease. The Wilms tumour 1 gene (WT1), an important developmental transcription factor, has been shown to be expressed in the progenitors of VWAT both in human and mouse. Moreover, adipose tissue expansion requires the formation of blood vessels and WT1 has previously been shown to be invol...
