Protein Link To Fat Storage Pinpointed By Scientists

A huge sigh of relief. They have "pinpointed" the culprit.
"A protein found present in all cells in the body could help scientists better understand how we store fat.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh have found that the protein invadolysin, which is essential for healthy cell division, is present in lipid droplets - the parts of cells used to store fat."
And "all cells in the body," too.

Good luck with that.
