in all mammals. Efficient sequestration of fat in adipocytes also prevents fatty acid overload in
skeletal muscle and liver, which can impair insulin signaling. Here we report that the Cide ... Cited by 33 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 9 versions

I Dahlman, P Arner - International Journal of Obesity, 2007 - nature.com Obesity is the result of an imbalance between food intake and energy expenditure resulting in
the storing of energy as fat. Adipose tissue contains the largest store of energy in the body and
plays important roles in regulating energy partitioning. Developments in genomics, in ... Cited by 19 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 3 versions
