Abstract
The response of adipose progenitors to metabolic states is a crucial, but poorly understood, determinant of metabolic health. The back-to-back papers by Joffin et al. (2021) and Shao et al. (2021) in this issue of Cell Stem Cell reveal how adipose-tissue-resident PDGFRβ<sup>+</sup>precursor cell fate is regulated by mitochondrial bioenergetic state and how such processes go wrong in obesity.
