Abstract
Obesity-induced insulin resistance is associated with low-grade adipose tissue inflammation, but the mechanism driving this process remains unclear. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, a study by Deng et al. (2013) demonstrates a direct immunological role of adipocytes in instigating adipose inflammation via a MHCII-dependent process.
