Research Abstract |
To date, the regulating mechanism of adipogenesis in the ruminants have not been clear. Therefore, we investigated the search and the functional analysis of lipophilic signaling molecule as a regulator of adipogenesis in the ruminants. In this study we demonstrated that VFA and lactoseureid are an intrinsic and an extrinsic factor, respectively, controlling the gene expression of PPAR γ-2 and LXRα in the ruminants, and VFA is a prominannt inducer and regulator on the ruminant adipocyte differentiation.
