Research Note: Potential usage of DF-1 cell line as a new cell model for avian adipogenesis.

ABSTRACT: Current research of avian adipogenesis has been dependent on primary preadipocytes culture due to the lack of commercially available immortal preadipocyte cell lines in avian species. In addition to primary stromal vascular cells, primary chicken embryonic fibroblasts (CEF) were suggested as new in vitro models for adipogenesis study, because CEF can be differentiated into adipocytes by a combination of fatty acids and insulin (FI), or all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) alone in the media containing chicken serum (CS). However, there are decreases in differentiation of primary cells due to diverse population of cell types and low adipogenic potential of cells after passages. In the present study, adipogenic differentiation of DF-1 cells, immortal fibroblasts derived from an embryonic chicken,
