Abstract:3T3-L1 cells are extensively used as a model to study adipogenesis. However, one major concern is the prolonged period of time it takes the cells to differentiate into adipocytes form. To induce this differentiation, the adipogenic induction media is required. In this study, troglitazone, a hypoglycemic agent was added to adipogenic induction media and observed in order to determine the morphological changes and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) gene expression in 3T3-L1 differentiation… Show more
