干预GPR1通路对实验性小鼠脂肪累积的影响

一直以来,肥胖是令人担忧和烦恼的健康问题,可导致包括2型糖尿病在内的代谢综合征发生.与肥胖相关疾病的发病机制是多因子影响的结果,但是,越来越多的证据表明,脂肪组织分泌的细胞因子(脂联素、瘦素、TNF-α等)的改变,以及局部的炎症反应对于这些疾病的发生具有重要作用.Chemerin(也被称为他扎罗汀诱导基因2或者视黄酸受体反应子2),是近年来发现的一种脂肪细胞因子,是G蛋白偶联受体1(GPR1)的配体,在调节代谢、先天免疫等方面具有重要的作用.为了研究Chemerin及其受体GPR1对小鼠脂肪累积的影响,本课题组通过高脂饲料喂养,成功建立小鼠肥胖模型,利用si RNA干扰技术沉默小鼠和分化前3T3-L1细胞中Chemerin或GPR1基因的表达发现:a.Chemerin及其受体GPR1在高脂饲料喂养小鼠的腹股沟脂肪以及肩胛下脂肪中的表达高于正常饲料组;b.沉默C57BL/6小鼠体内Chemerin或GPR1基因的表达后,肝脏以及腹股沟脂肪组织中脂质的累积受到抑制;c.3T3-L1细胞在体外分化成熟过程中,Chemerin和GPR1也呈高表达的趋势,沉默分化前3T3-L1细胞中Chemerin或GPR1基因的表达后,3T3-L1细胞向脂肪细胞的分化受到影响,降低了脂肪细胞中脂质的累积以及与脂质代谢相关基因的表达,改变了成熟脂肪细胞中新陈代谢功能.这些结果提示,Chemerin及其受体GPR1可能在小鼠脂肪累积中具有调控作用.综上所述,Chemerin/GPR1可能是一种调节脂肪组织中脂质累积的潜在信号通路,为肥胖症等代谢紊乱疾病的治疗提供了可能的作用靶点.

Chemerin及ChemR23与糖尿病大血管病变

Chemerin是2007年新确认的一种脂肪因子,其主要功能受体为ChemR23。近期研究发现chemerin可能是联系肥胖、糖尿病及动脉粥样硬化的潜在因子,有望为糖尿病及其血管并发症的预防及治疗提供新的靶点。然而,chemerin及其受体ChemR23参与糖尿病及其大血管病变的具体机制尚不明确。本文将就目前研究中chemerin及其受体ChemR23与糖尿病及其大血管病变的关系作一综述,并从免疫及炎症反应、氧化应激、自噬、糖脂代谢和胰岛素抵抗等方面,分析chemerin分别对巨噬细胞、血管内皮细胞、脂肪细胞及骨骼肌细胞的影响,从而进一步阐述chemerin及其受体ChemR23参与糖尿病及其大血管病变的具体生物学机制。     

Chemerin, a novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) target gene that promotes mesenchymal stem cell adipogenesis

Chemerin is an adipocyte-secreted protein that regulates adipogenesis and the metabolic function of mature adipocytes via activation of chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1). Herein we report the interaction of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and chemerin in the context of adipogenesis. Knockdown of chemerin or CMKLR1 expression or antibody neutralization of secreted chemerin protein arrested adipogenic clonal expansion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by inducing a loss of G(2)/M cyclins (cyclin A2/B2) but not the G(1)/S cyclin D2. Forced expression of PPARγ in BMSCs did not completely rescue this loss of clonal expansion and adipogenesis following chemerin or CMKLR1 knockdown. However, forced expression and/or activation of PPARγ in BMSCs as well as non-adipogenic cell types such as NIH-3T3 embryonic fibroblasts and MCA38 colon carcinoma cells significantly induced chemerin expression and secretion. Sequence analysis revealed a putative PPARγ response element (PPRE) sequence within the chemerin promoter. This PPRE was able to confer PPARγ responsiveness on a heterologous promoter, and mutation of this sequence abolished activation of the chemerin promoter by PPARγ. Chromatin immunoprecipitation confirmed the direct association of PPARγ with this PPRE. Treatment of mice with rosiglitazone elevated chemerin mRNA levels in adipose tissue and bone marrow coincident with an increase in circulating chemerin levels. Together, these findings support a fundamental role for chemerin/CMKLR1 signaling in clonal expansion during adipocyte differentiation as well as a role for PPARγ in regulating chemerin expression.     

Expression of chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) on J744A.1 macrophages co-cultured with fibroblast and/or tumor cells: modeling the influence of microenvironment

Maturation of macrophages is influenced by the composition of surrounding microenvironment. Expression of CMKLR1, the receptor for chemerin, is potentially associated with the differentiation status of macrophages. In this study, CMKLR1 was determined on peritoneal and tumor-infiltrating macrophages. CMKLR1 expression was found to be associated with the fibroblast-assisted maturation of J744A.1 monocyte/macrophage cells in the co-cultures established to model tumor microenvironment, whereas the presence of tumor cells was able to upregulate CMKLR1 expression independent of macrophage maturation. In addition, macrophages cultured with tumor cells or in tumor cell-conditioned media responded to recombinant chemerin(17-156) peptide and increased the expression of proinflammatory IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-12 p40 cytokines. The native form of chemerin (prochemerin) supplied by fibroblasts did not induce a functional response. These observations may indicate a potential role for chemerin and CMKLR1 in the regulation of inflammatory responses in the tumor microenvironment.
