Histone H3K27 methyltransferase Ezh2 represses Wnt genes to facilitate adipogenesis.

abstract：:Faster aging is predicted in more active tissues and animals because of greater reactive oxygen species generation. Yet age-related cell loss is greater in less active cell types, such as type II muscle fibers. Mitochondrial uncoupling has been proposed as a mechanism that reduces reactive oxygen species production an...
