Adipose Tissue Development
Introduction
Draft Page- notice removed when completed.
Connective tissues in the body have a mesoderm origin, while in the head neural crest also contributes to these tissues.
This topic is also covered in musculoskeletal (Tendon Development), integumentary (Integumentary Development) and endocrine development (Adipose Tissue).
Blood is a liquid connective tissue (More? Blood Development).
- Loose and dense connective tissue
- Reticular connective tissue
- Adipose Tissue
- Mesenchymal connective tissue
Some Recent Findings
|
Molecular Development
Adipocyte differentiation regulation.[1]
White Adipose
Brown Adipose
- Brown adipocytes have numerous small lipid droplets rather than a single large one as in white adipocytes
- Elevated numbers of mitochondria
- mitochondrial expression of the nuclear gene UCP1, the uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation responsible for non-shivering thermogenesis.
