Prolonged induction activates Cebpα independent adipogenesis in NIH/3T3 cells.
BACKGROUND: 3T3-L1 cells are widely used to study adipogenesis and insulin response. Their adipogenic potential decreases with time in the culture. Expressing exogenous genes in 3T3-L1 cells can be challenging. This work tries to establish and characterize an alternative model of cultured adipocytes...
