JDP2 suppresses adipocyte differentiation by regulating histone acetylation

Abstract: Among the events that control cellular differentiation, the acetylation of histones plays a critical role in the regulation of transcription and the modification of chromatin. Jun dimerization protein 2 (JDP2), a member of the AP-1 family, is an inhibitor of such acetylation and contributes to the maintenance of chromatin structure. In an examination of Jdp2 'knock-out' (KO) mice, we observed elevated numbers of white adipocytes and significant accumulation of lipid in the adipose tissue in sections of scapula… Show more

“…JDP2 has effects on various cellular processes. It mediates the differentiation of myoblasts [5] and osteoclasts [6], inhibits the differentiation of adipocytes [7] and embryonic carcinoma cells [8], acts as a tumor suppressor in NIH3T3 cells and prostate cancer cell lines [9], induces the partial transformation of chick embryonic fibroblasts [10], and functions as a cell-survival protein [11] and as a progesterone receptor coactivator [12]. The mechanisms of JDP2-mediated transcriptional repression may include the regulation of nucleosome assembly and histone acetylation [13].…”

“…After 2 days, cells were stored frozen as "fresh MEF. " Genotypes were identified by PCR using a portion of each culture, as described elsewhere (34). For long term growth experiments, cells were cultured in the presence of either 3 or 20% O 2 and passaged every 4 days; mean population doublings were calculated from cell numbers.…”

“…It appears ubiquitously expressed and is involved in a variety of biological phenomena, such as cell differentiation (11)(12)(13)(14), apoptosis (15,16), and tumorigenesis (17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). It can dimerize, through its b-Zip motif, with itself or other b-Zip proteins, such as c-Jun, JunB, JunD, or ATF-2 (10,11,23), and function as a general repressor of, at least, AP-1, cAMP-response element, and TPA responsive element-dependent transcription (10,23).…”
