preadipocyt
Preadipocytes are undifferentiated cells that have the potential to develop into mature adipocytes, commonly known as fat cells. These precursor cells are a crucial component of adipose tissue development and maintenance. Preadipocytes can be found in various locations throughout the body, including bone marrow, the stromal vascular fraction of adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle.
The process of differentiation from a preadipocyte to an adipocyte is known as adipogenesis. This is a
The number and activity of preadipocytes play a role in regulating body fat mass. An increased proliferation
