Popis: Summary: Pro-preadipocytes are adipocyte progenitor cells within subcutaneous adipose tissue that are conserved in human adipose tissue with distinct cellular energetics. Here, we detail a protocol to quantify cellular oxygen consumption rates of primary human cells harvested from adipose tissue. We describe steps for primary cell expansion, cell seeding, transfection, differentiation, and respirometry followed by Agilent Seahorse Analytics. The measurement of bioenergetic profiles and resulting data further expand our knowledge of the functional properties of primary cells isolated from adipose tissue.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Chen et al. (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
