Innervation of thermogenic adipose tissue via a calsyntenin 3β–S100b axis, Published online: 01 May 2019; doi:10.1038/s41586-019-1156-9

The newly identified calsyntenin 3β protein has a role in the innervation of thermogenic fat through a mechanism of communication—which is unique to mammals—between thermogenic adipocytes and sympathetic neurons.
