The Mediator complex functions as a control center orchestrating diverse signalings,gene activities.and biological processes.However,how Mediator subunits determines distinct cell fates remains to be fully elucidated.Here,we show that Mediator MED23 controls the cell fate preference that directs differentiation into smooth muscle cells (SMCs) or adipocytes.Med23 deficiency facilitates SMC differentiation but represses adipocyte differentiation from the multipotent mesenchymal stem cells.
