Using IVIS optical imaging of CRISPR/Cas9 engineered adipose tissue to study obesity prevention

using-ivis-fat-cells512

Obesity is a global epidemic that is the fifth leading cause of death worldwide and in the US alone, nearly 85% of adults are expected to be overweight or obese by 2030. In addition to the increased risk of overall mortality, obesity is associated with an increased risk for other metabolic disorders such as diabetes and heart disease which pose a significant burden to health care systems.

Read this case study to learn how researchers at the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston, Massachusetts used the IVIS® optical imaging system to visualize and quantify CRISPR/Cas9 engineered adipose tissue in a mouse model to study the prevention of obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders.
