Abstract excerpt
Culture of mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in medium containing delipidated bovine calf serum caused the cells to elongate and divide after reaching confluency. The continued proliferation correlated with sustained expression of the c-myc gene, which was repressed in control cells. Exposure of the cells to activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), including clofibrate, WY-14,643, and...
