CREBRF p.Arg457Gln Promotes Obesity and Improves Insulin Sensitivity by Promoting Preadipocyte Differentiation and Reducing Oxidative Metabolism in Gene-modified Pig Models
2021-10-26
Abstract excerpt
Obesity is one of the most important risk factors for type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The CREBRF missense allele of rs373863828 (p.Arg457Gln) is associated with increased body mass index (BMI), yet reduced risk of T2DM in people with Pacific ancestry. To investigate the functional consequences of the CREBRF variant, we introduced the corresponding human mutation p.Arg457Gln into porcine genome by using a CRISPR/Cas9-media...
