Bridging the obesity gap : a role for connexin and pannexin signalling in adipogenesis

Obesity is currently a worldwide health problem associated with conditions such as type 2 diabetes. It has been reported that connexins may be involved in adipogenesis but the underlying mechanism remains unresolved. Adipose tissue from male Zucker fatty rats (falfa), male lean rats (fa-I-) and 3T3-...
