Background: Cartonectin (collagenous repeat‐containing sequence of 26‐kDa protein; CORS‐26) was described as a new adipokine of the C1q/TNF molecular superfamily C1q/TNF‐related protein‐3 (CTRP‐3), secreted by the adipocytes of mice and humans. The receptor and function of cartonectin are unknown and the recombinant protein is not commercially available. Objective: To investigate the effects of recombinant cartonectin on the secretion of adipokines such as adiponectin, leptin, and resistin from adipocytes of human and murine origin. The effect of the BMI of the adipocyte donor was also investigated. Methods and Procedures: Human adipocytes from pooled lean and preobese healthy individuals and murine 3T3‐L1 adipocytes were used for stimulation experiments. Recombinant cartonectin was expressed in insect H5 cells. Adipokine secretion was measured using enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. In addition, western blot analysis and luciferase reporter gene assays were employed. Results: Cartonectin (1, 10, 50, and 250 ng/ml) in higher doses stimulates the secretion of adiponectin and resistin from murine adipocytes. This effect is not caused by an induction of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPAR‐γ) protein expression, as confirmed by western blot analysis. Also, luciferase reporter gene assay revealed that cartonectin failed to induce luciferase activity at the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor responsive element site containing the adiponectin/luciferase promoter fragment. Human adipocytes from lean individuals secrete higher amounts of adiponectin and leptin when compared with adipocytes of individuals with a preobesity BMI (25–30 kg/m2). Cartonectin failed to stimulate adiponectin or leptin secretion from human adipocytes, irrespective of the BMI value. Discussion: Cartonectin is a new adipokine that differentially regulates the secretion of classical adipokines, with marked differences between the human and the murine systems. These effects are species‐dependent, while basal adipokine secretion is influenced by the BMI. 相似文献

Objective: Recently, an activation of the endocannabinoid system during obesity has been reported. More particularly, it has been demonstrated that hypothalamic levels of both endocannabinoids, 2‐arachidonoylglycerol and anandamide (N‐arachidonoylethanolamine), are up‐regulated in genetically obese rodents. Circulating levels of both endocannabinoids were also shown to be higher in obese compared with lean women. Yet, the direct production of endocannabinoids by human adipocytes has never been demonstrated. Our aim was to evaluate the ability of human adipocytes to produce endocannabinoids. Research Methods and Procedures: The production of endocannabinoids by human adipocytes was investigated in a model of human white subcutaneous adipocytes in primary culture. The effects of leptin, adiponectin, and peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR)‐γ activation on endocannabinoid production by adipocytes were explored. Endocannabinoid levels were determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)‐atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI)‐mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, leptin and adiponectin secretion measured by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and PPAR‐γ protein expression examined by Western blotting. Results: We show that 2‐arachidonoylglycerol, anandamide, and both anandamide analogs, N‐palmitoylethanolamine and N‐oleylethanolamine, are produced by human white subcutaneous adipocytes in concentrations ranging from 0.042 ± 0.004 to 0.531 ± 0.048 pM/mg lipid extract. N‐palmitoylethanolamine is the most abundant cannabimimetic compound produced by human adipocytes, and its levels are significantly down‐regulated by leptin but not affected by adiponectin and PPAR‐γ agonist ciglitazone. N‐palmitoylethanolamine itself does not affect either leptin or adiponectin secretion or PPAR‐γ protein expression in adipocytes. Discussion: This study has led to the identification of human adipocytes as a new source of endocannabinoids and related compounds. The biological significance of these adipocyte cannabimimetic compounds and their potential implication in obesity should deserve further investigations. 相似文献

Accumulating evidence suggests that inhibition of mitogen‐activated protein kinase signalling can reduce phosphorylation of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) at serine 273, which mitigates obesity‐associated insulin resistance and might be a promising treatment for type 2 diabetes. Dihydromyricetin (DHM) is a flavonoid that has many beneficial pharmacological properties. In this study, mouse fibroblast 3T3‐L1 cells were used to investigate whether DHM alleviates insulin resistance by inhibiting PPARγ phosphorylation at serine 273 via the MEK/ERK pathway. 3T3‐L1 pre‐adipocytes were differentiated, and the effects of DHM on adipogenesis and glucose uptake in the resulting adipocytes were examined. DHM was found to dose dependently increase glucose uptake and decrease adipogenesis. Insulin resistance was then induced in adipocytes using dexamethasone, and DHM was shown to dose and time dependently promote glucose uptake in the dexamethasone‐treated adipocytes. DHM also inhibited phosphorylation of PPARγ and ERK. Inhibition of PPARγ activity with GW9662 potently blocked DHM‐induced glucose uptake and adiponectin secretion. Interestingly, DHM showed similar effects to PD98059, an inhibitor of the MEK/ERK pathway. DHM acted synergistically with PD98059 to improve glucose uptake and adiponectin secretion in dexamethasone‐treated adipocytes. In conclusion, our findings indicate that DHM improves glucose uptake in adipocytes by inhibiting ERK‐induced phosphorylation of PPARγ at serine 273. 相似文献

Objective: This study was designed to examine the effect of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐α (PPAR‐α) ligands on the inflammatory changes induced by the interaction between adipocytes and macrophages in obese adipose tissue. Methods and Procedures: PPAR‐α ligands (Wy‐14,643 and fenofibrate) were added to 3T3‐L1 adipocytes, RAW264 macrophages, or co‐culture of 3T3‐L1 adipocytes and RAW264 macrophages in vitro, and monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) mRNA expression and secretion were examined. PPAR‐α ligands were administered to genetically obese ob/ob mice for 2 weeks. Moreover, the effect of PPAR‐α ligands was also evaluated in the adipose tissue explants and peritoneal macrophages obtained from PPAR‐α‐deficient mice. Results: In the co‐culture of 3T3‐L1 adipocytes and RAW264 macrophages, PPAR‐α ligands reduced MCP‐1 and TNF‐α mRNA expression and secretion in vitro relative to vehicle‐treated group. The anti‐inflammatory effect of Wy‐14,643 was observed in adipocytes treated with macrophage‐conditioned media or mouse recombinant TNF‐α and in macrophages treated with adipocyte‐conditioned media or palmitate. Systemic administration of PPAR‐α ligands inhibited the inflammatory changes in adipose tissue from ob/ob mice. Wy‐14,643 also exerted an anti‐inflammatory effect in the adipose tissue explants but not in peritoneal macrophages obtained from PPAR‐α‐deficient mice. Discussion: This study provides evidence for the anti‐inflammatory effect of PPAR‐α ligands in the interaction between adipocytes and macrophages in obese adipose tissue, thereby improving the dysregulation of adipocytokine production and obesity‐related metabolic syndrome. 相似文献

Adiponectin, an anti‐inflammatory and insulin‐sensitizing protein secreted from adipose tissue, may be modulated by dietary fatty acids, although the mechanism is not fully known. Our objective was to investigate the effect of long‐chain n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on adiponectin in cultured human adipocytes, and to elucidate the role of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPARγ) in this regulation. Isolated human adipocytes were cultured for 48 h with 100 µmol/l eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5n‐3, EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6n‐3, DHA), palmitic acid (C16:0), 100 µmol/l EPA plus 100 µmol/l DHA, or bovine serum albumin (control). Additionally, adipocytes were treated for 48 h with a PPARγ antagonist (BADGE) or agonist (rosiglitazone) in isolation or in conjunction with either EPA or DHA. At 48 h, EPA and DHA increased (P < 0.05) adiponectin secretion by 88 and 47%, respectively, while EPA, but not DHA, also increased (136%, P < 0.001) cellular adiponectin protein. Interestingly, PPARγ antagonism completely abolished the DHA‐mediated increase in secreted adiponectin, but only partially attenuated the EPA‐mediated response. Thus, EPA's effects on adiponectin do not appear to be entirely PPARγ mediated. Rosiglitazone increased (P < 0.001) the secreted and cellular adiponectin protein (90 and 582%, respectively). Finally, the effects of EPA and rosiglitazone on adiponectin secretion were additive (+230% at 48 h combined, compared to 121 and 124% by EPA or rosiglitazone alone, respectively). Overall, our findings emphasize the therapeutic importance of long‐chain n‐3 PUFA alone, or in combination with a PPARγ agonist, as a stimulator of adiponectin, a key adipokine involved in obesity and related diseases. 相似文献

Objective: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have raised great hopes for future clinical applications. Several groups have succeeded in differentiating hESCs into adipocytes, as determined by morphology, mRNA expression, and protein secretion. However, determination of lipolytic response, the most important characteristic of adipocytes, has not been performed. This work was intended to study adipogenic conversion of hESCs by functional assessment of differentiation. Research Methods and Procedures: Single undifferentiated colonies were allowed to transform into embryonic bodies. mRNA expression for a set of adipocyte‐specific genes and leptin/adiponectin secretion and lipolysis were assessed at different time‐points after differentiation. Results: In contrast to primary human adipocytes, hESC‐derived adipocytes showed a very small response to classical β‐adrenergic agonists, although they expressed the major genes in the lipolytic cascade. In contrast, there was a significant lipolytic response to atrial natriuretic peptide. Discussion: Although hESC‐derived adipocytes seem to be morphologically and expressionally similar to mature adipocytes, there are important functional differences that could depend on their early developmental origin. We conclude that, in contrast to mature adipocytes, hESC‐derived adipocytes display a differential response to atrial natriuretic peptide and catecholamines. 相似文献

Objective: To examine gender differences and hormonal regulation of resistin, adiponectin, and leptin. Research Methods and Procedures: Plasma levels were measured, and mRNA expression in perigonadal fat was quantified by RNase protection assays. Results: Plasma resistin declined with age despite an increase in adiposity in both genders. In male mice, plasma leptin increased, whereas adiponectin levels were constant. In females, both adiponectin and leptin levels increased with age. Resistin mRNA levels were significantly higher in female than male mice at all ages, whereas leptin and adiponectin mRNA levels were similar in fat from 6‐week‐old male and female mice, and sexual dimorphism was apparent only in the older mice, with higher levels apparent in females. Castration did not abolish gender differences in plasma levels or resistin, adiponectin, or leptin mRNAs. Castration of male mice did not significantly change adipokine mRNA levels or plasma levels of resistin or leptin; however, adiponectin was significantly increased. Dihydrotestosterone treatment had no effect on adipokine mRNA expression or resistin and adiponectin levels but increased leptin levels. In contrast, ovariectomy significantly increased resistin mRNA abundance and decreased leptin and adiponectin mRNAs. Plasma leptin levels were also increased by ovariectomy, whereas resistin and adiponectin levels were unchanged. Estrogen replacement significantly reduced resistin mRNA and increased leptin and adiponectin mRNA levels but had no effect on plasma adipokine levels. Discussion: The gender differences in adipokine mRNA expression and plasma levels were not ablated by castration and seem to be dependent on other factors in addition to gonadal steroids. 相似文献

Rosiglitazone (RSG) has a variety of actions on both insulin sensitization and anti‐atherogenic effects. The molecular effect of RSG on monocyte/macrophage function in terms of de novo synthesis of adiponectin is not fully understood. Here, we examined the regulation of adiponectin expression in human monocytes/macrophages by RSG and its function on monocyte adhesion during initiation of atherosclerosis. Adiponectin expression in monocytes and macrophages was studied by RT‐PCR, quantitative real‐time PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemistry. Signal transduction and adhesion molecules were studied in order to describe the function of de novo synthesized adiponectin in monocyte adhesion. Adiponectin was expressed and upregulated during monocyte differentiation. The expression of adiponectin was enhanced, albeit at a much lesser degree, by a peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist RSG, which was similar to what was found in adipocytes. Monocyte adhesion was remarkably reduced when the cells were treated with RSG for 12 h. This inhibitory effect of RSG was abolished by specific anti‐adiponectin antibodies but not by non‐immune immunoglobulin G in a serum‐free condition. Adiponectin‐induced suppression on monocyte adhesion was inhibited by a selective AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor compound C. The reduced expression and/or function of adhesion molecule integrins may underlie the mechanism contributing to reduced monocyte adhesion upon AMPK activation. Our data suggest that the inhibitory effect of RSG on monocyte adhesion might be at least in part through de novo adiponectin expression and activation of an AMPK‐dependent pathway, which might play an important role in atherogenesis.

The circadian clock controls energy homeostasis by regulating circadian expression of proteins involved in metabolism. Disruption of circadian rhythms leads to obesity and metabolic disorders. Little is known regarding the control of the biological clock over adiponectin signaling pathway in adipose tissue, the adiponectin producer, and muscle, an adiponectin target tissue under fasting, low‐fat (LF), or high‐fat (HF) diet. Mice were fed LF or HF diet for 7 weeks and fasted on the last day. The circadian mRNA expression of clock genes and components of adiponectin metabolic pathway (mAdipoR1, mAdipoR2, mPparα, mPparγ, mAmpk, and mAcc) in the muscle and adipose tissue were tested. Using average daily levels of multiple time points around the circadian cycle, we assessed mRNA levels of the different adiponectin signaling components. In addition, serum glucose, adiponectin, and insulin were measured. Under LF diet, adiponectin signaling pathway components exhibited circadian rhythmicity at the mRNA levels. Fasting and HF diet followed by fasting disrupted this circadian expression causing a phase advance or delay, respectively. Changes were also found in the expression levels of adiponectin receptor, mAmpk, mAcc, mPparα, and mPparγ reflecting a defect in adiponectin signaling. As both peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) and mAMPK are linked to the core clock mechanism, they could mediate the disruptions seen in clock gene expression under HF diet. In turn, the circadian clock affects the daily rhythm of these adiponectin signaling components. 相似文献

The murine macrophage‐like cell line J774.1 was treated with heat‐killed cells of Lactobacillus GG (LGG) and L. gasseri TMC0356 (TMC 0356). Interleukin (IL)‐6, IL‐12, and tumor necrosis factor‐α were profiled from the J774.1 cells using enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay methods. The conditioned medium from cultured J774.1 cells was transferred to the preadipocyte cell line 3T3‐L1 (which is a mouse embryonic fibroblast‐adipose‐like cell line). Growth and differentiation of 3T3‐L1 cells were monitored by analyzing lipid accumulation and expression of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR)‐γ mRNA. The medium conditioned by 3T3‐L1 cells was added to J774.1 cells and the cytokines in the supernatant analyzed. Compared with that of cells exposed to a PBS‐conditioned medium, lipid accumulation in 3T3‐L1 cells was significantly suppressed in a dose‐dependent manner by each medium that had been conditioned with LGG and TMC0356. PPAR‐γ mRNA expression in 3T3‐L1 cells was also significantly downregulated (P < 0.01, P < 0.05, respectively). The conditioned medium of 3T3‐L1 adipose phenotype significantly stimulated production of IL‐6 and IL‐12 in J774.1 cells treated with LGG and TMC0356. These results suggest that lactobacilli may suppress differentiation of preadipocytes through macrophage activation and alter the immune responses of macrophages to adipose cells. 相似文献
