Macrophages are found in large numbers in the adipose tissue where they closely associate with the adipocytes and the vasculature. Adipose tissue macrophages are a heterogenous population of cells with 'hard wired' diversity brought upon by distinct developmental lineages. The purpose of this review is to provide a brief history of macrophages in control of adipose tissue metabolism with the emphasis on the importance of macrophage ontogeny.

巨噬细胞个体发育在脂肪组织生物学中的控制。

在脂肪组织中发现大量巨噬细胞，它们与脂肪细胞和脉管系统紧密结合。脂肪组织巨噬细胞是异质细胞群体，具有独特的发育谱系带来的“硬连接”多样性。这篇综述的目的是提供巨噬细胞控制脂肪组织代谢的简要历史，重点是巨噬细胞个体发育的重要性。
