Lipoblast
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A lipoblast is a precursor cell for an adipocyte.[1]
Alternate terms include adipoblast[2] and preadipocyte.[3]
Early stages are almost indistinguishable from fibroblasts.[4]
Liposarcoma
Lipoblasts are seen in liposarcoma[5] and characteristically have abundant multi-vaculated clear cytoplasm and a dark staining (hyperchromatic), indented nucleus.
