General Information
Term adult fat cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00049949 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Fat cell of the adult fat body. These cells are derived from cells of the larval body wall and adepithelial cells associated with imaginal discs (Hoshizaki et al., 1995; Musselman and Kuhnlein, 2018). Fully-differentiated adult fat cells are found from around 3-4 days after eclosion (Aguila et al., 2007). Unlike the larval fat cells, they are diploid (Musselman and Kuhnlein, 2018).[ FlyBase:FBrf0083200 FlyBase:FBrf0191901 FlyBase:FBrf0238315 ]
Also Known As "adult adipose cell"
