[Adipose tissue. Cellular and molecular principles].
For many decades, cutaneous biology research has primarily focused on the dermis and epidermis. In recent years the subcutaneous far has attracted the attention of basic science, cosmetology and industry. Numerous new approaches are in the process of development, enabling us to better understand assembly, differentiation and function of adipose tissue. To understand these developments a background in the cellular and molecular basics of adipose tissue is indispensable. This state-of the art article provides the needed information.
