EBF2 determines and maintains brown adipocyte identity.
The master transcription factor Pparγ regulates the general differentiation program of both brown and white adipocytes. However, it has been unclear whether Pparγ also controls fat lineage-specific characteristics. Here, we show that early B cell factor-2 (Ebf2) regulates Pparγ binding activity to determine brown versus white adipocyte identity. The Ebf DNA-binding motif was highly enriched wit...
متن کاملAdrenergic regulation of brown adipocyte differentiation.
Introduction Brown and white fat-cells share a basic life pattern in developing from undifferentiated fibroblast-like precursors to becoming increasingly differentiated with time. Throughout the life of an organism, a pool of precursors remains available. It would seem that the number of white fatcells, at least, is not constant but is influenced by external factors, such as food supply, and so...
متن کاملPlasminogen activator inhibitor-1 modulates adipocyte differentiation.
Increased plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is linked to obesity and insulin resistance. However, the functional role of PAI-1 in adipocytes is unknown. This study was designed to investigate effects and underlying mechanisms of PAI-1 on glucose uptake in adipocytes and on adipocyte differentiation. Using primary cultured adipocytes from PAI-1(+/+) and PAI-1(-/-) mice, we found that PAI...
متن کاملMethyltransferase and demethylase profiling studies during brown adipocyte differentiation
Although brown adipose tissue is important with regard to energy balance, the molecular mechanism of brown adipocyte differentiation has not been extensively studied. Specifically, regulation factors at the level of protein modification are largely unknown. In this study, we examine the changes in the expression level of enzymes which are involved in protein lysine methylation during brown adip...
متن کاملRegulation of white and brown adipocyte differentiation by RhoGAP DLC1
Adipose tissues constitute an important component of metabolism, the dysfunction of which can cause obesity and type II diabetes. Here we show that differentiation of white and brown adipocytes requires Deleted in Liver Cancer 1 (DLC1), a Rho GTPase Activating Protein (RhoGAP) previously studied for its function in liver cancer. We identified Dlc1 as a super-enhancer associated gene in both whi...
