Control of Embryonic Brown Adipocyte Development by GATA6 II
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic organ that protects animals against hypothermia and obesity. BAT derives from the multipotent paraxial mesoderm; however, the identity of embryonic brown fat progenitor cells and regulators of adipogenic commitment are unclear.  Here, we performed single cell gene expression analyses of mesenchymal cells during mouse embryogenesis with a focus on BAT development. Overall design: Live (DAPI(-)) cells from control and Gata6?Myf5 mutant embryos harvested at E14.5
