EBF2 determines and maintains brown adipocyte identity.
- S. Rajakumari, J. Wu, +5 authors P. Seale
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell metabolism
- 2 April 2013
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… Expand
Distinct macrophage populations direct inflammatory versus physiological changes in adipose tissue
- D. A. Hill, H. Lim, +11 authors M. Lazar
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 14 May 2018
Significance Obesity has reached pandemic levels, prompting the need for novel therapeutics. The immune system has been suggested to be critically linked to metabolic health, leading to the prospect… Expand
Prdm16 is required for the maintenance of brown adipocyte identity and function in adult mice.
- Matthew J. Harms, Jeff Ishibashi, +6 authors P. Seale
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell metabolism
- 1 April 2014
Prdm16 is a transcription factor that regulates the thermogenic gene program in brown and beige adipocytes. However, whether Prdm16 is required for the development or physiological function of brown… Expand
Ebf2 is a selective marker of brown and beige adipogenic precursor cells
- Wenshan Wang, Megan Kissig, +4 authors P. Seale
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 2 September 2014
Significance High levels of brown/beige fat activity protects animals against metabolic disease, but there has been little known about the precursor cells that mediate the expansion of brown or beige… Expand
Genomic redistribution of GR monomers and dimers mediates transcriptional response to exogenous glucocorticoid in vivo.
- H. Lim, N. H. Uhlenhaut, +7 authors D. Steger
- Biology, Medicine
- Genome research
- 1 June 2015
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are commonly prescribed drugs, but their anti-inflammatory benefits are mitigated by metabolic side effects. Their transcriptional effects, including tissue-specific gene… Expand
PRDM16 binds MED1 and controls chromatin architecture to determine a brown fat transcriptional program.
- Matthew J. Harms, H. Lim, +7 authors P. Seale
- Biology, Medicine
- Genes & development
- 1 February 2015
PR (PRD1-BF1-RIZ1 homologous) domain-containing 16 (PRDM16) drives a brown fat differentiation program, but the mechanisms by which PRDM16 activates brown fat-selective genes have been unclear.… Expand
Nuclear Receptor Corepressors are Required for the Histone Deacetylase Activity of HDAC3 In Vivo
- Seo-Hee You, H. Lim, Z. Sun, Molly B. Broache, K. Won, M. Lazar
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Structural &Molecular Biology
- 28 November 2012
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenome-modifying enzyme that is required for normal mouse development and tissue-specific functions. In vitro, HDAC3 protein itself has minimal enzyme activity… Expand
Histone Deacetylase 3 Prepares Brown Adipose Tissue For Acute Thermogenic Challenge
- Matthew J. Emmett, H. Lim, +13 authors M. Lazar
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 1 June 2017
Brown adipose tissue is a thermogenic organ that dissipates chemical energy as heat to protect animals against hypothermia and to counteract metabolic disease. However, the transcriptional mechanisms… Expand
