Exploration of Conserved Human Adipose Subpopulations Using Targeted Single‐Nuclei RNA Sequencing Data Sets
Human adipose cell populations are distinct from mice, and the pericyte subpopulation in human adipose tissues are present across adipose depots. Given that vascular mural cells, including pericytes and smooth-muscle cells, can undergo adipogenesis, we postulate that they are a novel source of adipocytes in the vascular microenvironment.
