Thermogenesis function has made brown/beige adipocyte an attractive target for obesity. Human brown adipose tissue activity is impaired in obesity in vivo. The present study aims to compare the differences in beige adipocyte differentiation potential of subcutaneous adipose tissue derived from normal weight and obese Chinese individuals in vitro.
