Demonstration of de novo production of adipocytes in adult rats by biochemical and radioautographic techniques.

Adult rats of various strains show small increases in the number of adipocytes in the epididymal (Epi) fat pad and large increases in the retroperitoneal (RP) fat depot when they are fed a high-fat, high-sugar diet ( HFS ). In the present study, radioautographic techniques are used to demonstrate th...
