One hormone released by cells in this tissue inhibits neuropeptide Y and stimulates the production of alpha-MSH.
One cancer of this tissue can be caused by a fusion of the CHOP gene with either the FUS or EWS gene, while other cancers of this tissue are present in Madelung disease and Dercum disease. A class of cytokines named for and secreted by cells in this tissue includes apelin, resistin, and TNF-alpha. Stem cells derived from this tissue include PLA cells as well as the stromal vascular fraction. One hormone released by cells in this tissue inhibits neuropeptide Y and stimulates the production of alpha-MSH. Cells in this tissue contain an uncoupling protein which uses oxidative phosphorylation to generate heat without shivering. Thermogenin is expressed in cells in this tissue, which releases the ghrelin-opposed satiety hormone leptin, and comes in brown and white types. For 10 points, name this tissue which stores lipids.
