A recent study (Girousse et al. Cell Rep. 2019;27:323-333) shows that CXCR4+ adipose progenitors (APCs) contribute to lipid spillover during high-fat feeding through their release from subcutaneous fat depots (ScATs) and migration to skelet...
Distinct Roles of the NAD+-Sirt1 and FAD-LSD1 Pathways in Metabolic Response and Tissue Development [0.03%]
