The research in the Mandrup laboratory aims at understanding transcriptional networks regulating cellular differentiation and function in mammalian cells. We are specifically interested in the molecular cross-talk between transcriptional regulation and metabolism in adipocytes and pancreatic b-cells, and in the transcriptional network regulating adipocyte differentiation. The mechanisms of action and the gene regulatory programs initiated by members of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) family and their associated co-factors are of particular interest. In addition, the Mandrup laboratory has a long-standing interest in the acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP).
