Abstract

Adipose tissue is composed of a variety of cells distributed in different depots and playing various metabolic roles. In a recent issue of Nature, Sun et al. (2020) use snRNA-seq and functional studies to identify a population of adipocytes that can suppress the thermogenic activity of neighboring adipocytes by secretion of acetate.
