REPIN1 and obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency: In addition, we saw standalone effects on three genes of interest, all of which were downregulated in IUGR-R compared to IUGR-L: Tbx15 (T-box transcription factor 15, an early patterning gene recently identified as a master regulator of obesity genes [26]) and Repin1 (replication initiator 1, strongly associated with adipogenesis) were down-regulated 13.16-fold and 2.36-fold respectively in IUGR-R, and in both cases expression was similar in IUGR-R and macrosomic samples.
