Abstract excerpt
Fms interacting protein (FMIP) is a substrate for Fms tyrosine kinase, and a nuclear/cytoplasm shuttling protein with a leucine zipper. As the phosphorylation of FMIP is observed in insulin-stimulated preadipocytes, we examined the role of FMIP in adipocyte differentiation, using the mesenchymal multipotent stem cells, C2C12 cells, that can differentiate into adipocytes, muscle cells and osteoblasts. Ectopic...
