AdipoAtlas: Mapping out human white adipose tissue

Cell Rep Med. 2021 Oct 19;2(10):100429. doi: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2021.100429.

Abstract

In this issue of Cell Reports Medicine, Lange and colleagues1 significantly improve lipid identification accuracy, detection, and quantification to provide AdipoAtlas, an in-depth lipidomic profile of human white adipose tissue (WAT). Importantly, they define obesity-mediated lipid alterations, which may provide insight into the etiology of associated diseases.
