Retinoic acid decreases nuclear triiodothyronine receptor expression and impairs an early step of adipose differentiation in the thyroid hormone-sensitive mouse Ob 17 preadipocyte cell line.

Abstract excerpt

In the murine preadipocyte cell line Ob 17, T3 is known to be necessary at an early step of adipose differentiation for the expression of late phenotypes [lipogenic enzymes such as malic enzyme, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH), etc.] and not necessary for the expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), which emerges earlier, at growth arrest. These cells contain nuclear T3 receptors, which mainly belong to...
