Impaired histone deacetylases 5 and 6 expression mimics the effects of obesity and hypoxia on adipocyte function by Julien Bricambert (19738237)

“…Similarly, hypoxia hampered total Hdac activity and reduced the expression of <i>Hdac5</i> and <i>Hdac6</i> in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The decrease of both <i>Hdac5</i> and <i>Hdac6</i> by hypoxia was associated with altered expression of adipokines and of the inducible cAMP early repressor (Icer), a key repressor that is defective in human and mice obesity. …”
