Happy to share our new paper. We showed that, mice lacking both the fat synthesis enzymes DGAT1 and DGAT2 are resistant to diet induced obesity and diabetes. Adipocytes are still functional!!!. Thanks to all the co-authors for contributions. elifesciences.org/articles/88049
Fat cells without fat? No problem ! …. according to the amazing @MChitraju in @eLife elifesciences.org/articles/88049
Today! @BobFarese from @FandWLab @SKI_CellBiology -TW
What are the consequences of inhibiting fat storage in adipose tissue?. Please check out our new study. @MChitraju @AlexWFischer @YohannesAbere1 @KennyWang0208 @realTonyHui @TobiWalther @BobFarese @FandWLab @MET_HSPH biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
