Fat cells from the gonadal fat pad of New Zealand obese mice are larger than those from the subcutaneous fat pad. When fat is transplanted to a third, common site (beneath the kidney capsule), this difference in size largely disappears, suggesting it is the location of the fat cells rather than of intrinsic differences between the cells that account for their different sizes.
来自新西兰肥胖小鼠性腺脂肪垫的脂肪细胞比来自皮下脂肪垫的脂肪细胞更大。当将脂肪移植到第三个共同部位（肾包膜下方）时，这种大小差异在很大程度上消失了，这表明是脂肪细胞的位置而非细胞之间的内在差异导致了它们大小的不同。
