Summary: This protocol outlines a reliable and versatile approach to isolate stromal vascular fraction cells from different adipose tissues across human and mouse species. A number of downstream applications can then be performed to gain an appreciation of the functional activity of unique adipose tissue-resident cell populations.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Macdougall et al. (2018).
