Adipocytes
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Adipocytes'Cells in the body that store FATS, usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES. WHITE ADIPOCYTES are the predominant type and found mostly in the abdominal cavity and subcutaneous tissue. BROWN ADIPOCYTES are thermogenic cells that can be found in newborns of some species and hibernating mammals. Common names: Adipocytes; Adipocyte; Fat Cells; Cell, Fat; Cells, Fat; Fat Cell; Lipocytes; Lipocyte |

Osteoblast differentiation is functionally associated with decreased AMP kinase activity.
29 Nov 2009 
Osteoblasts, originating from mesenchymal stem cells, play a pivotal role in bone formation and mineralization. Several transcription factors including runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) have been reported to be essential for osteoblast ... Read more...
Effect of adipose tissue on the sexual dimorphism in metabolic flexibility.
30 Oct 2009 Metabolic flexibility is the ability to transition between fat oxidation (fasting state) and glucose oxidation (fed state). We hypothesized that adipose tissue inflammation and lipid metabolism contribute to sexual dimorphism in metabolic ... Read more...
Lipoblastoma (LPB): a clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical analysis of 59 cases.
30 Oct 2009 Lipoblastoma (LPB) is a benign neoplasm that occurs predominantly in early childhood. We investigated clinicopathologic features, associated conditions, immunohistochemistry, and outcome in 59 LPB identified from surgical pathology and consultation ... Read more...
