Abstract

See full text

Compositions and methods for producing autologous brown adipose cells in vitro or in vivo are provided. In particular, a drug delivery device is described that recruits adipose stem cells (ASCs) to a site in the body of a subject. These ASCs may then be isolated and induced to differentiate into autologous brown adipose cells. Alternatively, the drug delivery device may also include differentiation factors that induce differentiation of the recruited ASCs into brown adipose cells in vivo. The brown adipose cells produced by these methods may be used therapeutically to treat conditions, such as obesity and diabetes.
