Hpertension is an important health problem throughout the world and a risk factor for many diseases. Angiotensin-converting
enzyme (ACE), a component of the renin-angiotensin system, has an important role in the regulation of blood pressure. Zinc
(Zn), a trace element with important biological functions, is located in the catalytic site of ACE. Calcium (Ca), magnesium
(Mg), sodium (Na), and potassium (K) also appear to be involved in hypertension pathogenesis. In this study, plasma ACE activities
and Cat, Cai, Mg, Na, K, and plasma/erythrocyte Zn levels of 20 untreated patients with essential hypertension and 28 helthy individuals
were evaluated. Plasma ACE activities (p<0.05) and erythrocyte Zn concentrations (p<0.001) were significantly higher in patients with essential hypertension than values of the control group. No significant
difference was found between plasma Zn concentrations of the groups (p>0.05). Plasma Cat (p<0.001) and Mg levels (p<0.05) in essential hypertension were significantly lower than those of controls. Plasma Na, K, and Cai levels remained normal in essential hypertension. There are complex associations between metals and arterial pressure. Ca
and Mg deficiencies seem to be associated with increased prevalence of hypertension. Increases in erythrocyte Zn may have
a future potential use for diagnosis of hypertension. 相似文献

Expression of the human apoE2 isoform in adipocytes: altered cellular processing and impaired adipocyte lipogenesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Expression of apoE in adipocytes has been shown to have an important role in modulating adipocyte triglyceride (TG) metabolism and gene expression that is independent of circulating and extracellular apoE. The impact of adipocyte expression of common human apoE isoforms was evaluated using adipocytes harvested from human apoE2, -3, and -4 knock-in mice. Expression of the apoE2 isoform was associated with an increase in adipocyte apoE gene expression and apoE synthesis. Newly synthesized apoE2 was unstable in adipocytes and demonstrated increased degradation and decreased secretion. ApoE2-expressing mice were hyperlipidemic, and had increased size of gonadal fat pads and of adipocytes, compared with apoE3 mice. In isolated cells, however, expression of the apoE2 isoform produced defective lipogenesis and increased TG hydrolysis. Incubation of adipose tissue with apoE3-containing TG-rich lipoproteins resulted in a significant increase in TG in adipose tissue from apoE3 and -E4 mice, but not apoE2 mice. Reduced capacity to internalize FFA as lipogenic substrate contributed to defective lipogenesis. Newly synthesized apoE2 is unstable in adipocytes and results in decreased adipocyte TG synthesis and defective FA uptake. These changes recapitulate those observed in apoE knockout adipocytes and have implications for understanding metabolic disturbances in humans expressing the E2 isoform. 相似文献

Rats were exposed to cold and then reacclimated at neutral temperature. Changes related to fatty acid and glucose metabolism in brown and white adipose tissues (BAT and WAT) and in muscle were then examined. Of the many proteins involved in the metabolic response, two lipogenic enzymes, acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC) and ATP-citrate lyase, were found to play a pervasive role and studied in detail. Expression of the total and phosphorylated forms of both lipogenic enzymes in response to cold increased in BAT but decreased in WAT. Importantly, in BAT, only the phosphorylation of the ACC1 isoenzyme was enhanced, whereas that of ACC2 remained unchanged. The activities of these enzymes and the in vivo rate of FFA synthesis together suggested that WAT supplies BAT with FFA and glucose by decreasing its own synthetic activity. Furthermore, cold increased the glucose uptake of BAT by stimulating the expression of components of the insulin signaling cascade, as observed by the enhanced expression and phosphorylation of Akt and GSK-3. In muscle, these changes were observed only during reacclimation, when serum insulin also increased. Such changes may be responsible for the extreme glycogen accumulation in the BAT of rats reacclimated from cold. 相似文献

Surface protein expression between human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells and mature adipocytes 总被引:10,自引:1,他引:9

Adipose tissue contains a stroma that can be easily isolated. Thus, human adipose tissue presents an source of multipotent
stromal cells. In order to determine the implication of hematopoietic markers in adipocyte biology, we have defined part of
the phenotype of the human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells, and compared this to fully differentiated adipocytes. Flow
cytometry demonstrates that the protein expression phenotype of both cell types are similar and includes the expression of
CD10, CD13, CD34, CD36, CD55, CD59 and CD65. No significant difference between subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue could
be demonstrated concerning the expression of these markers. However, the expression of CD34, CD36 and CD65 is cell-dependent.
While the expression of CD36 and CD65 doubled between stromal cells and mature adipocytes, the expression of CD34 decreased,
despite this protein being present on the mature adipocyte. As CD34 is described as a stem cell marker and it being unlikely
to be expressed on differentiated cells, this result was confirmed by immunostaining and western blot. The clear function
of this protein on the adipocyte membrane remains to be determined. The characterization of new proteins on mature adipocytes
could have broad implications for the comprehension of the biology of this tissue. 相似文献

Obesity‐induced hyperleptinemia is frequently associated with insulin resistance suggesting a crosstalk between leptin and insulin signaling pathways. Our aim was to determine whether insulin and leptin together interfere on NOS activation in adipocytes. We examined insulin and leptin‐induced nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity, protein amount and NOS III phosphorylation at Ser1179 in isolated epididymal adipocytes from rat, in the presence or not of inhibitors of kinases implicated in insulin or leptin signaling pathways. Insulin or leptin induced NOS III phosphorylation at Ser1179 leading to increased NO production in rat adipocytes, in agreement with our previous observations. When insulin and leptin at a concentration found in obese rats (10 ng/ml) were combined, NOS activity was not increased, suggesting a negative crosstalk between insulin and leptin signaling mechanisms. Chemical inhibitors of kinases implicated in signaling pathways of insulin, such as PI‐3 kinase, or of leptin, such as JAK‐2, did not prevent this negative interaction. When leptin signaling was blocked by PKA inhibitors, insulin‐induced NOS activity and NOS III phosphorylation at Ser1179 was observed. In the presence of leptin and insulin, (i) IRS‐1 was phosphorylated on Ser307 and this effect was prevented by PKA inhibitors, (ii) JAK‐2 was dephosphorylated, an effect prevented by SHP‐1 inhibitor. A mutual resistance occurs with leptin and insulin. Leptin phosphorylates IRS‐1 to induce insulin resistance while insulin dephosphorylates JAK‐2 to favor leptin resistance. This interference between insulin and leptin signaling could play a crucial role in insulin‐ and leptin‐resistance correlated with obesity. J. Cell.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have critical roles during adipogenesis; however, their precise functions are not completely understood. Porcine miRNA expression profiles show that miR-127 is dramatically downregulated with age in adipose tissue. We aimed to identify the precise functions and mechanisms of miR-127 in proliferation and adipogenesis. Preadipocytes were cultured under conditions to induce proliferation or differentiation and the effect of miR-127 overexpression on these processes, and the associated bioinformatically predicted target genes, were assessed using luciferase assays, quantitative real-time PCR, western blot analysis, and cell staining techniques. miR-127 increased proliferation by promoting cell cycling, whereas it suppressed differentiation, which was accompanied by reduced lipid accumulation. miR-127 targeted mitogen-activated protein kinase 4 and homeobox C6 (HOXC6) to activate preadipocyte proliferation. During differentiation, miR-127 targeted HOXC6 to attenuate adipogenesis. These findings identify miR-127 as an inhibitor of porcine adipogenesis, which may inform future strategies to reduce porcine fat deposition and treat human obesity. 相似文献

We studied the distribution of the D/D, I/D, and I/I genotypes of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in a sample of healthy Lebanese individuals to assess their prevalence
and compare them with other populations. ACE genotypes were determined using the Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) StripAssay,
which is based on a Polymerase Chain Reaction-Reverse hybridization technique. DNA from 133 unrelated healthy donors from
our HLA-bank was used. The prevalence of D/D, I/D, and I/I genotypes was found to be 39.1, 45.1, and 15.8% respectively, with D and I allelic frequency of 61.7 and 38.3%, respectively. The sampled Lebanese population showed ACE genotypic distributions similar
to Caucasians; however, with tendency towards harboring high D allele frequency together with a low I allele frequency just like the Spanish population. This first report from Lebanon will serve as a baseline statistical data
for future investigations of the prevalence of ACE genotypes in association with various clinical entities notably cardiovascular
diseases. The medical literature was also reviewed in this context. 相似文献

Flame retardants, specifically polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), are chemical compounds widely used for industrial purposes and household materials. NHANES data indicate that nearly all Americans have trace amounts of PBDEs in serum, with even higher levels associated with occupational exposure. PBDEs are known to bioaccumulate in the environment due to their lipophilicity and stability, and more importantly, they have been detected in human adipose tissue. The present study examined whether the PBDE congener, BDE‐99 (2,2′,4,4′,5‐pentabromodiphenyl ether; 0.2‐20 μM), enhances the adipogenesis of mouse and human preadipocyte cell models in vitro via induced lipid accumulation. 3T3‐L1 mouse preadipocytes and human visceral preadipocytes demonstrated enhanced hormone‐induced lipid accumulation upon BDE‐99 treatment. In addition, BDE‐99 (20 μM) induced preadipocyte differentiation and lipid development in nondifferentiated human preadipocytes. BDE‐99, the second most abundant congener in human adipose tissue, increased total lipids in differentiating adipocytes and therefore showed a potential role in the regulation of adipogenesis. This warrants more research to further understand the impact of lipophilic persistent pollutants on adipose tissue homeostasis. 相似文献

Distinct hypoxic regulation of preadipocyte factor-1 (Pref-1) in preadipocytes and mature adipocytes
Yunwon Moon Seongyeol Lee Bongju Park Hyunsung Park 《Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA)/Molecular Cell Research》2018,1865(2):334-342
Preadipocyte factor-1 (Pref-1) is a secretory soluble protein, which exerts pleiotropic effects on maintenance of cancer stem cell characteristics and commitment of mesenchymal stem cell lineages by inhibiting adipogenesis. Observations that obesity renders the microenvironment of adipose tissues hypoxic and that hypoxia inhibits adipogenesis lead us to investigate whether hypoxia increases the expression of anti-adipogenic Pref-1 in preadipocytes, mature adipocytes, and adipose tissues from obese mouse. In 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, hypoxia induces Pref-1 by a hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1)-dependent mechanism accompanied by increase in the levels of the active histone mark, acetylated H3K9/14 (H3K9/14Ac). Adipogenesis increased the levels of the heterochromatin histone mark, trimethylated H3K27 (H3K27me3), whereas it decreased the levels of H3K4me3 and H3K9/14Ac euchromatin marks of the mouse Pref-1 promoter. However, differently from preadipocytes, in mature adipocytes hypoxia failed to reverse the repressive epigenetic changes of Pref-1 promoter and to increase its expression. Short term (8 weeks) high fat diet (HFD) increased HIF-1α protein in subcutaneous and epididymal adipose tissues, but did not increase Pref-1 expression. Unlike in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, HIF-1α did not increase Pref-1 expression in adipose tissues in which mature adipocytes constitute the main population. Interestingly, long term (35 weeks) HFD increased Pref-1 in serum but not in obese adipose tissues. This study suggests that Pref-1 is an endocrine factor which is synergistically increased by obesity and age. 相似文献

Renal cortical remodelling by NO-synthesis blockers in rats is prevented by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and calcium channel blocker 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
The cortical remodelling was studied when chronically nitric oxide synthesis (NOs) blockade (L-NAME-induced) hypertensive rats are simultaneously treated, or not, with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or calcium channel blocker. Four groups of eight rats each were studied as follows: Control (C), L-NAME (L), L-NAME+Enalapril (L+E) and L-NAME+Verapamil (L+V). The systolic blood pressure (SBP) was weekly recorded. The cortex of the left kidneys was analysed according to the vertical section design. The volume-weighted mean glomerular volume (VWGV) was made through the "point-sampled intercepts" method. Enalapril and verapamil were efficient in reducing the SBP in rats submitted to NOs blockade. Glomeruli had considerable alterations in L group rats (glomerular hypertrophy or sclerosis) and tubular atrophy. The VWGV was 100% greater in L group rats than in the C group rats, while it was 30% smaller in L+E and L+V groups than in L group. The tubular volume was 30–50% greater, while the tubular lenght was 20–30% smaller in L group than in the other groups. The renal cortical region showed glomerular sclerosis/hypertrophy and tubular remodelling in rats with NOs blockade that was efficiently prevented with the simultaneous treatment with enalapril or verapamil. 相似文献

Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) remodelling is closely related to the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated whether metformin (MET) prevents AF‐dependent EAT remodelling and AF vulnerability in dogs. A canine AF model was developed by 6‐week rapid atrial pacing (RAP), and electrophysiological parameters were measured. Effective refractory periods (ERP) were decreased in the left and right atrial appendages as well as in the left atrium (LA) and right atrium (RA). MET attenuated the RAP‐induced increase in ERP dispersion, cumulative window of vulnerability, AF inducibility and AF duration. RAP increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and nuclear factor kappa‐B (NF‐κB) phosphorylation; up‐regulated interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) and transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β1) levels in LA and EAT; decreased peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and adiponectin (APN) expression in EAT and was accompanied by atrial fibrosis and adipose infiltration. MET reversed these alterations. In vitro, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure increased IL‐6, TNF‐α and TGF‐β1 expression and decreased PPARγ/APN expression in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes, which were all reversed after MET administration. Indirect coculture of HL‐1 cells with LPS‐stimulated 3T3‐L1 conditioned medium (CM) significantly increased IL‐6, TNF‐α and TGF‐β1 expression and decreased SERCA2a and p‐PLN expression, while LPS + MET CM and APN treatment alleviated the inflammatory response and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ handling dysfunction. MET attenuated the RAP‐induced increase in AF vulnerability, remodelling of atria and EAT adipokines production profiles. APN may play a key role in the prevention of AF‐dependent EAT remodelling and AF vulnerability by MET. 相似文献

Profiling of adipokines secreted from human subcutaneous adipose tissue in response to PPAR agonists 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The role of PPARs in the regulation of human adipose tissue secretome has received little attention despite its potential importance in the therapeutic actions of PPAR agonists. Here, we have investigated the effect of selective PPARgamma, PPARalpha, and PPARbeta/delta agonists on the production of adipokines by human subcutaneous adipose tissue. Antibody arrays were used to measure secreted factors in media from cultured adipose tissue explants. Sixteen proteins were produced in significant amounts. Activation of PPARs regulated the production of five proteins. Treatments with the three PPAR agonists decreased the secretion of leptin and interleukin-6. PPARalpha and beta/delta agonists markedly enhanced hepatocyte growth factor secretion whereas PPARbeta/delta down-regulated angiogenin and up-regulated TIMP-1 release. Hepatocyte growth factor, interleukin-6, and TIMP-1 are chiefly expressed in cells from the stromal vascular fraction whereas angiogenin is expressed in both adipocytes and cells from the stromal vascular fraction. Our data show that PPAR agonists modulate secretion of bioactive molecules from the different cell types composing human adipose tissue. 相似文献

Ethyl-3,4-dihydroxybenzoate (EDHB), a specific inhibitor of collagen synthesis, was used to study the role of collagen in the differentiation of bovine intramuscular preadipocytes (BIP). Triglyceride (TG) accumulation levels of BIP cells were dose-dependently inhibited by EDHB and were reduced to 50 % at a 0.1 mM concentration. EDHB addition prevented the accretion of collagens (types I-VI) on the cell surface, which generally increases during adipose conversion. Western blotting and immunofluorescence studies showed in detail that triple-helical conformation of procollagen molecules was drastically interrupted by EDHB, and as a result, their matrix assembly was not performed in the extracellular space of adipocytes. Particularly, the development of collagen types IV, V and VI during differentiation was severely damaged. When exogenous collagens were supplied to make up for the lack of endogenous products, cultured EDHB-treated cells on type V and VI collagen-coated dishes were the only ones among six collagens to accumulate more TG, although their TG content did not reach that of normal adipocytes. This result implies the importance and the active role of collagens V and VI for adipogenesis. However, these findings also indicate that collagen newly synthesized and organized by the adipocyte itself during differentiation is still necessary for the growth of adipose tissue. 相似文献

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CAMKs) can control a wide range of cancer-related functions in multiple tumour types. Herein, we explore the expressions and clinical significances of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase 1 (CAMK1) in pancreatic cancer (PC). The expression of CAMK1 in PC was analysed by Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 (GEPIA 2) database and the Oncomine database. For further validation, the protein level of CAMK1 in PC tissues was also detected in the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database and the tissue microarray (TMA)-based immunohistochemistry (IHC). GEPIA 2 and Kaplan-Meier Plotter (KM Plotter) databases were used to explore the prognostic significances of CAMK1 in overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of PC at mRNA level. The relationship between CAMK1 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of PC was further explored. Additionally, the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) database was used to analyse protein-protein interactions (PPI). We found CAMK1 was highly expressed in PC both in bioinformatics analyses and TMA-IHC results. The prognostic analyses from the public databases also showed consistent results with follow-up data. The PPI network suggested that CALM1, CALM3, CREB1, CALM2, SYN1, NOS3, ATF1, GAPDH, PPM1F and FBXL12 were important significant genes associated with CAMK1. Our finding revealed CAMK1 has prognostic value in PC patients, suggesting that CAMK1 may has a distinct role in PC patients and can be used as a candidate marker for investigating clinical prognosis of PC. 相似文献

CD14, CD68 and/or mouse F4/80 or human epidermal growth factor module-containing mucin-like receptor 1 (EMR1) are widely used as macrophage-specific markers. Since macrophages infiltrate several tissues during inflammatory processes, CD14, CD68 and EMR1-F4/80 have been employed to discriminate between tissue-containing macrophages, like adipose tissue (AT), and other cells. Using real-time PCR experiments, we show that isolated adipocytes from humans and mice AT express high levels of CD14 and CD68 mRNA, whereas EMR1-F4/80 is mainly present in the macrophage-containing stroma-vascular fraction. Furthermore, fibroblasts-like cells (adipoblasts), preadipocytes and adipocytes from the murine cell lines, 3T3-F442A and BFC-1, express CD14 and CD68 mRNA and protein as determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorter, but not F4/80 which, as expected, is strongly expressed in the macrophage cell line RAW264.7. These results reinforce the view that EMR1-F4/80 is the best macrophage marker to date and show that CD14 and CD68 are not macrophage-specific proteins. 相似文献

Concentration-dependent reversible self-association (RSA) of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) poses a challenge to their pharmaceutical development as viable candidates for subcutaneous delivery. While the role of the antigen-binding fragment (Fab) in initiating RSA is well-established, little evidence supports the involvement of the crystallizable fragment (Fc). In this report, a variety of biophysical tools, including hydrogen exchange mass spectrometry, are used to elucidate the protein interface of such non-covalent protein-protein interactions. Using dynamic and static light scattering combined with viscosity measurements, we find that an IgG1 mAb (mAb-J) undergoes RSA primarily through electrostatic interactions and forms a monomer-dimer-tetramer equilibrium. We provide the first direct experimental mapping of the interface formed between the Fab and Fc domains of an antibody at high protein concentrations. Charge distribution heterogeneity between the positively charged interface spanning complementarity-determining regions CDR3H and CDR2L in the Fab and a negatively charged region in CH3/Fc domain mediates the RSA of mAb-J. When arginine and NaCl are added, they disrupt RSA of mAb-J and decrease the solution viscosity. Fab-Fc domain interactions between mAb monomers may promote the formation of large transient antibody complexes that ultimately cause increases in solution viscosity. Our findings illustrate how limited specific arrangements of amino-acid residues can cause mAbs to undergo RSA at high protein concentrations and how conserved regions in the Fc portion of the antibody can also play an important role in initiating weak and transient protein-protein interactions. 相似文献
