Nuclear Factor-Y is an adipogenic factor that regulates leptin gene expression

Objective: Leptin gene expression is highly correlated with cellular lipid content in adipocytes but the transcriptional mechanisms controlling leptin expression in vivo are poorly understood. In this report, we set out to identify cis- and trans-regulatory elements controlling leptin expression. Me...
