The study used innovative technology that maps RNA molecules which are the basis for translating the genome into proteins.

Obesity is a significant risk factor for various metabolic diseases and, in many cases, causes ectopic fat accumulation (i.e.

Scientists have pinpointed and described unusual subtypes of fat cells that may help scientists explain why gut fat is linked ...

For example, in addition to the 'classical' fat (adipocyte) cells, we found subpopulations of adipocytes, characterized here for the first time, that express RNA molecules indicating unique ...

Learn about our Editorial Policies. When Wolfrum and his team used single-cell RNA sequencing on mouse fat cells they found that adipocytes came in 10 varieties. These findings expand the limited ...

By lowering the media volume, and thus increasing the pericellular oxygen, Tan observed lowered hypoxia signaling and transcriptional rewiring that recapitulated a healthier adipocyte cell model.

More than 120 million Americans suffer from diabetes or pre-diabetes. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive form of breast cancer, and TNBC patients with obesity-driven diabetes ...
