Smad4-mediated angiogenesis facilitates the beiging of white adipose tissue in mice

Summary: Beige adipocytes are thermogenic with high expression of uncoupling protein 1 in the white adipose tissue (WAT), accompanied by angiogenesis. Previous studies showed that Smad4 is important for angiogenesis. Here we studied whether endothelial Smad4-mediated angiogenesis is involved in WAT...
