This paper presents flow cytometry workflows to characterize adipocyte populations in 3D in vitro constructs, enabling analysis of lipid accumulation, actin formation, and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake at the single-cell level.

This study develops a miniaturized vascularized adipose tissue platform to evaluate adipocyte and vascular function under various conditions.

This study shows simulated microgravity enhances adipocyte maturation and glucose uptake through cortical actin remodeling and mechanoresponsive signaling.
