Adipocyte browning and higher mitochondrial function in peri-adrenal but not subcutaneous fat in pheochromocytoma [PDF]
Context: Patients with pheochromocytoma (pheo) show presence of multilocular adipocytes that express uncoupling protein (UCP) 1 within periadrenal (pADR) and omental (OME) fat depots. It has been hypothesized that this is due to adrenergic stimulation
