Abstract

Adipocyte-targeted therapies could potentially combat obesity and metabolic disorders; however, our understanding of adipogenesis and the characterization of the various adipose tissues are incomplete. In this issue, Bertholet et al. (2017) report the existence of two types of heat-producing beige-like adipocytes, those with and those without the mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1).
