Deskripsi

The regulatory networks that govern chromatin accessibility and gene expression in brown and beigeadipocytes remain to be fully elucidated. Here the authors use fat-specific inactivation of BAF60a toreveal a differential role for this chromatin remodeling factor in brown fat thermogenesis and coldinduced browning of inguinal fat.
