HOTAIR interacts with PRC2 complex regulating the regional preadipocyte transcriptome and human fat distribution

Summary: Mechanisms governing regional human adipose tissue (AT) development remain undefined. Here, we show that the long non-coding RNA HOTAIR (HOX transcript antisense RNA) is exclusively expressed in gluteofemoral AT, where it is essential for adipocyte development. We find that HOTAIR interacts...
