Abstract (original English)

Here, we present a protocol for differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and stromal vascular fraction (SVF)-derived preadipocytes from mice into mature adipocytes, followed by the isolation of crude mitochondrial fractions. This cost-effective and reproducible protocol is optimized for small-plate formats, compatible with standard reagents, and suitable for metabolic studies such as insulin resistance and mitochondrial function.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • This is preclinical work; animal or laboratory results cannot be applied to humans.

Evidence level

Evidence from laboratory and animal studies provides groundwork for understanding mechanisms and potential before human studies continue.
