Description
Tissue-resident mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) in metabolic organs contribute to the regulation of whole body metabolism. CD301b+ MNPs are a subset of MNPs that are found in most peripheral organs including metabolic organs. In a mouse model in which CD301b+ MNPs can be selectively and transiently depleted, we examined the impact of the depletion on gene expression in the white adipose tissue and the liver.
