This study found that individuals with both androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome had thicker subcutaneous adipose tissue in the frontal scalp, along with unfavorable metabolic parameters, compared to those without metabolic syndrome.
September 2023 in “The FASEB journal” This study found that the protein Foxn1 is crucial for the development and fat-storing capacity of dermal white adipose tissue in mice, influencing both lipid metabolism and adipogenesis in the skin through Bmp2 and Igf2 signaling pathways.
May 2023 in “Stem Cells International” In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify cell types and molecular differences in subcutaneous adipose tissue from various anatomical sites, suggesting that certain subpopulations of human adipose stem cells might improve the treatment of chronic refractory wounds.
