Preventing diet-induced obesity in mice by adipose tissue transformation and angiogenesis using targeted nanoparticles
The incidence of obesity, which is recognized by the American Medical Association as a disease, has nearly doubled since 1980, and obesity-related comorbidities have become a major threat to human health. Given that adipose tissue expansion and transformation require active growth of new blood vascu...
