Leptin is primarily derived from this tissue, which when surrounding the organs is called visceral and serves as padding.
Treating myoblasts with PRDM16 can cause them to turn into one form of this tissue. When this tissue is enzymatically digested and then centrifuged, the pellet formed at the bottom is a rich source of various stem cells called the stromal vascular fraction. The mitochondria in one type of this tissue can generate heat without shivering through the use of (*) thermogenin. Leptin is primarily derived from this tissue, which when surrounding the organs is called visceral and serves as padding. This tissue exists in brown and white forms, and excess amounts of this tissue increase risk of diabetes and heart disease.
