Adipose tissue as a humoral-neuronal hub in metabolic regulation
Fat tissue acts as a signaling hub for metabolism and disease, revealing new therapeutic targets for obesity and diabetes complications.
Joslin Diabetes Center/Harvard Nature Reviews Endocrinology synthesis integrates current understanding of adipose tissue as a dynamic endocrine and neural signaling hub, mapping therapeutic opportunities for obesity, T2DM, and cardiometabolic disease through humoral and neuronal pathway targeting.
