Pref-1, a Gatekeeper of Adipogenesis
Preadipocyte factor 1 (Pref-1, also called Dlk1/FA1) is a molecular gatekeeper of adipogenesis which acts by maintaining the preadipocyte state and preventing adipocyte differentiation. Pref-1 is made as an epidermal growth factor-like repeat containing transmembrane protein, and is cleaved by TNFα-converting enzyme (TACE) to generate a soluble form, which acts as an autocrine/paracrine factor....
متن کاملPref-1, a preadipocyte secreted factor that inhibits adipogenesis.
Preadipocyte factor 1 (Pref-1) belongs to the Notch/Delta/Serrate family of epidermal growth factor-like repeat-containing proteins. Pref-1 is highly expressed in 3T3-L1 cells but is extinguished during adipocyte differentiation. Pref-1 serves as an excellent marker for preadipocytes. Furthermore, Pref-1 is an inhibitor of adipogenesis. Constitutive expression of Pref-1 inhibits, whereas antise...
متن کاملRACK1 is required for adipogenesis.
Adipose tissue plays a critical role in metabolic diseases and the maintenance of energy homeostasis. RACK1 has been identified as an adaptor protein involved in multiple intracellular signal transduction pathways and diseases. However, whether it regulates adipogenesis remains unknown. Here, we reported that RACK1 is expressed in 3T3-L1 cells and murine white adipose tissue and that RACK1 knoc...
متن کاملInhibition of adipogenesis and development of glucose intolerance by soluble preadipocyte factor-1 (Pref-1).
Preadipocyte factor-1 (Pref-1) is a transmembrane protein highly expressed in preadipocytes. Pref-1 expression is, however, completely abolished in adipocytes. The extracellular domain of Pref-1 undergoes two proteolytic cleavage events that generate 50 and 25 kDa soluble products. To understand the function of Pref-1, we generated transgenic mice that express the full ectodomain corresponding ...
متن کاملMeis1 Is Required for the Maintenance of Postnatal Thymic Epithelial Cells
Most epithelial tissues retain stem/progenitor cells to maintain homeostasis of the adult tissues; however, the existence of a thymic epithelial cell (TEC) progenitor capable of maintaining homeostasis of the postnatal thymus remains unclear. Here, we show that a cell population expressing high levels of Meis1, a homeodomain transcription factor, is enriched in TECs with an immature cellular ph...
