The recent insight that brown adipocytes and muscle cells share a common origin and in this
respect are distinct from white adipocytes has spurred questions concerning the origin and
molecular characteristics of the UCP1-expressing cells observed in classic white adipose
tissue depots under certain physiological or pharmacological conditions. Examining
precursors from the purest white adipose tissue depot (epididymal), we report here that
chronic treatment with the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ agonist rosiglitazone …
