Abstract (original English)

Embryonic stem cells are crucial for studying developmental biology due to their self-renewal and pluripotency capabilities. This research investigates the differentiation of mouse ESCs into adipocytes, offering insights into obesity and metabolic disorders. Using a monolayer differentiation approach over 30 days, lipid accumulation and adipogenic markers, such as Cebpb , Pparg , and Fabp4, confirmed successful differentiation. RNA sequencing revealed extensive transcriptional changes, with over 15,000 differentially expressed genes linked to transcription regulation, cell cycle, and DNA repair. This study utilized Robust Rank Aggregation to identify critical regulatory genes like PPARG, CEBPA, and EP300. Network analysis further highlighted Atf5 , Ccnd1 , and Nr4a1 as potential key players in adipogenesis and its mature state, validated through RT-PCR. While key adipogenic factors showed plateaued expression levels, suggesting early differentiation events, this study underscores the value of ESCs in modeling adipogenesis. These findings contribute to our understanding of adipocyte differentiation and have significant implications for therapeutic strategies targeting metabolic diseases.
