Adipocyte adaptive immunity mediates diet-induced adipose inflammation and insulin resistance by decreasing adipose Treg cells

Obesity is associated with inflammation in adipose tissue, characterized by a shift in local T cell subsets. Here the authors show that loss of MHCII expression on adipocytes increases levels of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells in adipose tissue, which enhances insulin sensitivity.
