Constitutive loss of DNMT3A causes morbid obesity through misregulation of adipogenesis

2021-09-15

Abstract excerpt

DNA Methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) is an important facilitator of differentiation of both embryonic and hematopoietic stem cells. Heterozygous germline mutations in DNMT3A lead to Tatton-Brown-Rahman Syndrome (TBRS), characterized by obesity and excessive height. While DNMT3A is known to impact feeding behavior via the hypothalamus, here we investigated a role in adipocyte progenitors utilizing heterozygous knocko...
