Adipose Tissue
Scientists at University of Durham describe research in adipose tissue
August 25th, 2008
According to recent research from Durham, the United Kingdom, "Previous studies have described a close anatomical association between hair follicles and subcutaneous adipocytes, yet little is known about the developmental origin of this preadipocyte population. Many transcription factors controlling adipogenesis in cell culture have been described; however, the molecular events governing the process of adipogenesis in rodent skin in vivo are largely unknown." "In this study, we investigated the onset and progression of adipocyte differentiation in the skin of foetal and newborn rats and mice. We first analysed the temporo-spatial expression pattern of the transcription...
