P Trayhurn, IS Wood - British Journal of Nutrition, 2007 - Cambridge Univ Press White adipose tissue is now recognised to be a multifunctional organ; in addition to the central
role of lipid storage, it has a major endo- crine function secreting several hormones, notably leptin
and adiponectin, and a diverse range of other protein factors. These various pro- tein ... Cited by 539 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 11 versions
