Assessment of adipogenesis degree in real time

Adipocytes serve as crucial energy reservoirs, efficiently converting surplus calories into fat for future energy needs. However, excessive fat accumulation can lead to obesity, a condition associated with various health problems in our modern society. Beyond their role in metabolism, adipocytes also influence immune responses and reproductive functions through hormone utilization such as leptin and adiponectin. Therefore, assessing the degree of adipogenesis at different time points is crucial. The use of automated live-cell imaging equipment, such as the Celloger^® Pro, makes it convenient to monitor and measure adipogenesis. Curiosis introduces methods for assessing adipogenesis during the differentiation process using the widely studied preadipocyte cell line, 3T3-L1.
