Adipocyte Expression of O-Glycoprotein Procollagen C-Endopeptidase Enhancer Protein 2 (PCPE2): Mechanisms Linking Fibrosis and Beiging of White Adipose Tissue

Mirza Ahmar Beg, Hao Xu, Bilal Ahmad…·Mary G. Sorci‐Thomas

This study shows that Pcpe2 in adipose tissue contributes to inflammation and fibrosis in obesity and that its absence reduces these effects and enhances adipocyte differentiation.
