Adipogenesis
Definition
A complex biological process and sequence of molecular stages through which undifferentiated precursor cells (preadipocytes) structurally transform into mature adipocytes capable of accumulating lipids. This physiological phenomenon also includes the synthesis and deposition of fats (triglycerides) within the adipose tissue as a form of metabolic energy storage.
