Distinct cellular and molecular mechanisms for β3 adrenergic receptor-induced beige adipocyte formation.

abstract：:In bacteria, multicellular behaviors are regulated by cell-cell signaling through the exchange of both diffusible and contact-dependent signals. In a multicellular context, Myxococcus cells can share outer membrane (OM) materials by an unknown mechanism involving the traAB genes and gliding motility. Using live imagin...
