Expression of PPARγ is regulated by promoter DNA methylation. Promoter methylation corresponds to a decreased expression of PPARγ and decreased adipogenic differentiation
H3 hyperacetylation and H3K4me3 at the apM1 promoter region correlate with early adipogenic differentiation. Inhibition of H3K4 methylation results in decreased apM1 expression and decreased adipogenesis
Unphosphorylated RB recruits HDAC3 to promoters of PPARγ gene targets, which decreases adipogenic differentiation. Inhibition of HDAC3 activity results in PPARγ activation, and subsequent adipogenesis
