To read the full abstract: Cell Rep 2019; 27(5): 1528–40These authors used FACS cell sorting, gene expression profiling, and metabolic and proteomic analyses to identify three distinct adipocyte progenitor cell (APCs) subtypes that reside in human white adipose tissues. Although they retain comparable differentiation capacity, they have different molecular profiles and give rise to ...

Nature 2019;567:187–193.URL https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-0984-ySummary: Novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in the blood that can predict early fatty liver disease were identified, using a proteomic and lipidomic-wide systems genetic approach in 107 genetically distinct mouse strains. In addition, the novel lipid-regulatory protein, PSMD9, was identified as...
