Skin aging: are adipocytes the next target?
Figure 1. Typical layered dWAT structures in rodents and humans. (A) Section of the dWAT from the C57/BI6 mouse. This dWAT depot has the layered form placed parallel to the panniculus carnosus. (B) Human dermal adipocytes in the form of “dermal cones” around the pilosebaceous units. Single “dermal cones” can protrude into the upper dermis. These dermal cones are connected on the other end with sWAT. Pictures courtesy of Drs. Min Kim (A) and Travis Vandergriff (B), UT Southwestern Medical Center and published in [
