adipose tissue
• P7 interscapular brown fat depots are heavier as a proportion of body weight by 30%
|
• interscapular brown adipose tissue depots show increased cellularity
|
• two markers of brown adipose tissue (UCP1 and Elovl3) are elevated in retroperitoneal white adipose tissue, indicating an increase in BEIGE cells or browing of white adipose tissue
• P7 retroperitoneal white adipose tissue depots show clusters of cells that possess BEIGE characteristics, including a larger volume of cytoplasm, numerous mitochondria, smaller, multilocular, lipid droplets, and increased markers of brown adipose tissue not seen in wild-type white adipose tissue
|
• retroperitoneal white adipose tissue shows an abundance of smaller adipocytes with a multilocular appearance
|
• P7 interscapular brown fat depots show increased cellularity and mitochondrial DNA content
|
• P7 interscapular brown fat depots are heavier as a proportion of body weight by 30%
|
• reduction in weight of mesenteric, inguinal, and retroperitoneal white adipose tissue depots relative to total body weight
|
growth/size/body
