About Enhancer
| Enhancer ID: | E_02_0337 |
| Species: | mouse |
| Position : | chr6:47504283-47506283   |
| Biosample name: | |
| Experiment class : | High+Lowthroughput |
| Enhancer type: | Enhancer |
| Disease: | Obesity |
| Pubmed ID: | 29654753 |
| Enhancer experiment: | Western blot,ELISAs,RT-qPCR, Immunohistochemistry,Histological analysis, |
| Enhancer experiment description: | We found that GSK126 treatment reduced body fat, improved glucose tolerance, increased lipolysis and improved cold tolerance in mice by promoting the differentiation of thermogenic beige adipocytes. Moreover, we discovered that GSK126 inhibited the differentiation of white adipocytes, and the decrease of Ezh2 enzymatic activity and H3K27me3 also changed the morphology of brown adipocytes but did not alter the expression of thermogenic genes in these cells. Our results indicated that GSK126 was a novel chemical inducer of beige adipocytes and may be a potential therapeutic agent for the management of obesity. Furthermore, they also prompted that Ezh2 and H3K27me3 play different roles in the differentiation of the white, brown, and beige adipocytes in vivo. |
