Abstract:Obesity is a major health problem worldwide. To understand how obesity is involved in diseases like heart disease or diabetes, we need to understand how fat develops in the body. Fat tissue is made up of several types of cells, mainly adipocytes, which function as fat storage for the body. In this experiment, we wanted to find out what the adrenaline hormone does to adipocytes.
