Regulation of the brown and white fat gene programs through a PRDM16/CtBP transcriptional complex.
Brown fat is a specialized tissue that can dissipate energy and counteract obesity through a pattern of gene expression that greatly increases mitochondrial content and uncoupled respiration. PRDM16 is a zinc-finger protein that controls brown fat determination by stimulating brown fat-selective gene expression, while suppressing the expression of genes selective for white fat cells. To determi...

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is an energy-dispensing thermogenic tissue that plays an important role in balancing energy metabolism. Lineage-tracing experiments indicate that brown adipocytes are derived from myogenic progenitors during embryonic development. However, adult skeletal muscle stem cells (satellite cells) have long been considered uniformly determined toward the myogenic lineage. Her...
متن کاملControlling Thermogenesis: Understanding the Role of PRDM16 in the Development and Function of Brown Fat
The alarming rise in the incidence of obesity found throughout the world has precipitated a need to look for novel methods to increase energy expenditure to counter weight gain. Recently it was discovered that adult humans possess a substantial mass of brown adipose tissue (BAT), a tissue that consumes stored lipid to produce heat. Although the primary physiologic role for BAT is to protect mam...
