| T1 |
0-79 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Galectin-12 is required for adipogenic signaling and adipocyte differentiation. |
| T2 |
80-223 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Galectin-12 is a member of the galectin family consisting of beta-galactoside-binding proteins with conserved carbohydrate recognition domains. |
| T3 |
224-311 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This protein is preferentially expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes and adipocytes. |
| T4 |
312-462 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We previously showed that galectin-12 is induced by cell cycle block at the G(1) phase and causes G(1) arrest when overexpressed (Yang, R.-Y., Hsu, D. |

276, 20252-20260). |
| T9 |
539-801 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Here, we show that the galectin-12 gene is expressed in mouse preadipocytes and is up-regulated when preadipocytes undergo cell cycle arrest, concomitant with acquisition of the competence to undergo differentiation in response to adipogenic hormone stimulation. |
| T10 |
802-964 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Following a brief down-regulation 1 day after adipogenic treatment, its expression was once again markedly elevated when cells underwent terminal differentiation. |
| T11 |
965-1305 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Down-regulation of endogenous galectin-12 expression by RNA interference greatly reduced the expression of the adipogenic transcription factors CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-beta and -alpha and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma and severely suppressed adipocyte differentiation as a result of defective adipogenic signaling. |
| T12 |
1306-1483 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We conclude that galectin-12 is required for signal transduction that conveys hormone stimulation to the induction of adipogenic factors essential for adipocyte differentiation. |
| T13 |
1484-1573 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The findings suggest that galectin-12 is a major regulator of adipose tissue development. |
