Abstract

Rb suppressor and cell fate The tumour suppressor Rb (retinoblastoma protein) is mutated in about one-third of human tumours. It suppresses the activity of certain transcription factors and potentiates the activity of others, and has been shown to affect the differentiation of different cell lineages in vitro. Jacqueline Lees and colleagues now show that Rb plays a role in determining fate choice between bone cell and brown adipose tissue formation in vivo in mouse osteosarcoma models, acting via the bone and fat master regulators Runx2 and PPARγ
