General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function KDM4A is a epigenetic regulator of osteoblast and adipocyte differentiation. KDM4A expression is upregulated during osteogenesis and adipogenesis of primary marrow stromal cells and stromal ST2 line. Overexpression of wild-type KDM4A promotes adipogenic differentiation and blocks osteogenic differentiation of the progenitor cells. Depletion or inactivation of KDM4A in undifferentiated progenitor cells inhibits the formation of adipocytes and promotes the differentiation of osteoblasts. Overexpression of KDM4A upregulates the expression of secreted frizzled-related protein Sfrp4 and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein C/ebpalpha. KDM4A directly binds the promoters of Sfrp4 and C/ebpalpha, removes the histone methylation mark H3K9me3, and reduces DNA methylation levels of CpG in promoter regions of C/ebpalpha and Sfrp4. Overexpression of KDM4A inactivates canonical Wnt signaling Mus musculus
