| Enhancer ID: | E_01_0459 |
| Species: | human |
| Position : | chr17:82075550-82077550 |
| Biosample name: | |
| Experiment class : | High+Lowthroughput |
| Enhancer type: | Enhancer |
| Disease: | Type 2 diabetes (t2d) |
| Pubmed ID: | 29789508 |
| Enhancer experiment: | Oil Red O Staining,MTT assay,Quantitative Real-Time PCR,Western Blot |
| Enhancer experiment description: | Taken together, these findings demonstrate that the effect of metformin on adipocyte differentiation is biphasic and dose-dependent. Lower concentrations of metformin induce adipogenesis, which could be mediated in an AMPK-independent manner, while higher concentrations of metformin inhibit adipogenesis via AMPK activation. |
| Target gene : | FASN |
| Strong evidence: | qRT-PCR,qPCR,ChIP,3C |
| Less strong evidence: | RNA-Seq |
| Target gene experiment description: | Taken together, these findings demonstrate that the effect of metformin on adipocyte differentiation is biphasic and dose-dependent. Lower concentrations of metformin induce adipogenesis, which could be mediated in an AMPK-independent manner, while higher concentrations of metformin inhibit adipogenesis via AMPK activation. |
