Epigenetic regulation of white adipose tissue plasticity and energy metabolism by nucleosome binding HMGN proteins
Abstract
White adipose tissue browning plays an important role in regulating whole-body energy homeostasis and metabolism. Here the authors show that the HMGN nucleosome binding proteins epigenetically promote white adipocyte differentiation and modulate the rate of white adipose tissue browning and energy metabolism in male mice.
