Preventive Cardiologist @umassmemorial via @umasschan @smithcollege | Physician-scientist interested in adipocyte biology and adverse cardiac remodeling

Excited to share a story of LINC00473, a long-noncoding RNA with key role in coupling mitochondrial respiration and lipolysis via interactions at the mitochondrial-lipid droplet interphase. People with less LINC00473 are more likely to have obesity & T2DM

Very cool science about adipose vasculature and metabolic health!!! Please see our editorial on this work as well:
Wang et al found that deletion of #GSK3β in #adipocytes improves the microenvironment of #obese adipose tissue & restores metabolic health associated with obesity by inducing the expansion of adipose vasculature. Find out more at
