A recent study has shed new light on the role of fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) in muscle regeneration, fibrosis, and degeneration. These cells play a crucial part in tissue homeostasis, and ...

Obesity is a significant risk factor for various metabolic diseases and, in many cases, causes ectopic fat accumulation (i.e.

Inhibition of Fat Cell Formation (Adipogenesis) – GDNF suppressed key genes involved in fat storage, including PPAR-γ, FASN, and SREBF1, while promoting fat oxidation pathways. Improved Insulin ...

In the current study, the effect protecting against obesity was attributed to suppressed adipogenesis (fat cell formation) in white adipose tissue, the most common type of body fat. Unlike GLP-1 ...
