Adipogenesis is induced when intracellular cAMP increases and follows cell cycle arrest. During preadipocyte differentiation expression of the TSHR, which signals via cAMP and the inositol phosphate cascade, is upregulated. To investigate the role of TSHR activation in adipogenesis, we have developed an in vitro model in which constitutively active TSHR mutants (L629F, M453T) are introduced by retroviral vectors (RV).We aimed to compare the effect...
