Where this comes from

Abstract

White adipose tissue (WAT) communicates with the CNS bidirectionally. In recent studies, aided by three-dimensional imaging, Wang et al. and Frei et al. have provided the organ-wide view of the afferent somatosensory network in the inguinal WAT (iWAT) and have further delineated its critical involvement in energy balance.
