PPARadigms and PPARadoxes: expanding roles for PPARgamma in the control of lipid metabolism 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The nuclear receptor PPARgamma is a central regulator of adipose tissue development and an important modulator of gene expression in a number of specialized cell types including adipocytes, epithelial cells, and macrophages. PPARgamma signaling pathways impact both cellular and systemic lipid metabolism and have links to obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The ability to activate this receptor with small molecule ligands has made PPARgamma an attractive target for intervention in human metabolic disease. As our understanding of PPARgamma biology has expanded, so has the therapeutic potential of PPARgamma ligands. Recent studies have provided insight into the paradoxical relationship between PPARgamma and metabolic disease and established new paradigms for the control of lipid metabolism. This review focuses on recent advances in PPARgamma biology in the areas of adipocyte differentiation, insulin resistance, and atherosclerosis. 相似文献

The prevalence of obesity and its associated metabolic diseases worldwide has focused attention on understanding the mechanisms underlying adipogenesis. The nuclear receptor PPARgamma has emerged as a central regulator of adipose tissue function and formation. Despite the identification of numerous PPARgamma targets involved in a range of processes, from lipid droplet formation to adipokine secretion, information is still lacking on targets downstream of PPARgamma that directly affect fat cell differentiation. Here we identify HRASLS3 as a novel PPARgamma regulated gene with a role in adipogenesis. HRASLS3 expression increases during the differentiation of preadipocyte cell lines and is highly expressed in white and brown adipose tissue in mice. HRASLS3 expression is induced by PPARgamma ligands in preadipocyte cell lines as well in adipose tissue in vivo. We demonstrate that the HRASLS3 promoter contains a functional PPAR response element and is a direct target for regulation by PPARgamma/RXR heterodimers. Finally, we show that overexpression of HRASLS3 augments PPARgamma-driven lipid accumulation and adipogenesis, whereas siRNA-mediated knockdown of HRASLS3 expression decreases differentiation. Together, these results identify HRASLS3 as one of the downstream effectors of PPARgamma action in adipogenesis. 相似文献

In this study, we show that expression of FoxC2 blocks the capacity of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to undergo adipogenesis in the presence of dexamethasone, isobutylmethylxanthine, and insulin. This block is characterized by an extensive decrease in the expression of proteins associated with the function of the mature fat cell, most notably C/EBPalpha, adiponectin, perilipin, and the adipose-specific fatty acid-binding protein, FABP4/aP2. Since the expression of these proteins lies downstream of PPARgamma, we overexpressed PPARgamma in Swiss mouse fibroblasts to promote adipocyte differentiation. We show that FoxC2 blocks the ability of PPARgamma to induce adipogenic gene expression in response to exposure of the cells to dexamethasone, isobutylmethylxanthine, insulin, and a PPARgamma ligand. Interestingly, the expression of aP2 escapes the inhibitory action of FoxC2 under conditions that promote maximum PPARgamma activity. In contrast, FoxC2 inhibits the expression of C/EBPalpha, perilipin, and adiponectin even in the presence of potent PPARgamma ligands. Finally, we show that FoxC2 does not affect the ability of PPARgamma to bind to or transactivate from a PPARgamma response element. These data suggest that FoxC2 blocks adipogenesis by inhibiting the capacity of PPARgamma to promote the expression of a subset of adipogenic genes. 相似文献

The nuclear hormone receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is the central regulator of adipogenesis. Although it is the target for several drugs that function as agonist activators, a high affinity endogenous ligand for this receptor that is involved in regulating adipogenesis has yet to be identified. Here, we investigated the requirement for ligand activation of PPARgamma in fat cell differentiation, taking advantage of a natural mutant of this receptor that does not bind or become activated by any known natural or synthetic ligand. When ectopically expressed in PPARgamma-null fibroblasts, this Q286P allele was able to strongly promote morphological adipogenesis, without any significant difference compared with wild-type PPARgamma. In addition, no significant differences were found in the expression of several adipogenic genes between the wild-type and Q286P mutant alleles. To extend our studies to an in vivo setting, we performed subcutaneous injections of PPARgamma-expressing fibroblasts into nude mice. We found that both wild-type and Q286P mutant-expressing fibroblasts were able to generate fat pads in the mice. These results suggest that the binding and activation of PPARgamma by agonist ligands may not be required for adipogenesis under physiological conditions. 相似文献

FMOC-L-Leucine (F-L-Leu) is a chemically distinct PPARgamma ligand. Two molecules of F-L-Leu bind to the ligand binding domain of a single PPARgamma molecule, making its mode of receptor interaction distinct from that of other nuclear receptor ligands. F-L-Leu induces a particular allosteric configuration of PPARgamma, resulting in differential cofactor recruitment and translating in distinct pharmacological properties. F-L-Leu activates PPARgamma with a lower potency, but a similar maximal efficacy, than rosiglitazone. The particular PPARgamma configuration induced by F-L-Leu leads to a modified pattern of target gene activation. F-L-Leu improves insulin sensitivity in normal, diet-induced glucose-intolerant, and in diabetic db/db mice, yet it has a lower adipogenic activity. These biological effects suggest that F-L-Leu is a selective PPARgamma modulator that activates some (insulin sensitization), but not all (adipogenesis), PPARgamma-signaling pathways. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear hormone receptor that is critical for adipogenesis and insulin sensitivity. Ligands for PPARgamma include some polyunsaturated fatty acids and prostanoids and the synthetic high affinity antidiabetic agents thiazolidinediones. However, the identity of a biologically relevant endogenous PPARgamma ligand is unknown, and limited insight exists into the factors that may regulate production of endogenous PPARgamma ligands during adipocyte development. To address this question, we created a line of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes that carry a beta-galactosidase-based PPARgamma ligand-sensing vector system. In this system, induction of adipogenesis resulted in elevated beta-galactosidase activity that signifies activation of PPARgamma via its ligand-binding domain (LBD) and suggests generation and/or accumulation of a ligand moiety. The putative endogenous ligand appeared early in adipogenesis in response to increases in cAMP, accumulated in the medium, and dissipated later in adipogenesis. Organically extracted and high pressure liquid chromatography-fractionated conditioned media from differentiating cells, but not from mature adipocytes, were enriched in this activity. One or more components within the organic extract activated PPARgamma through interaction with its LBD, induced lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells as efficiently as the differentiation mixture, and competed for binding of rosiglitazone to the LBD of PPARgamma. The active species appears to be different from other PPARgamma ligands identified previously. Our findings suggest that a novel biologically relevant PPARgamma ligand is transiently produced in 3T3-L1 cells during adipogenesis. 相似文献

The blood glucose-lowering property of pinitol is mediated via the insulin signaling pathway. This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of soy pinitol on adipogenesis in a 3T3-L1 cell line; 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were treated with pinitol (0-1 mM) together with insulin for 9 days. The regulation of lipid metabolism was assessed by oil-red-O staining of intracellular lipids and real-time PCR of adipogenesis-related factors. The inhibition of cell proliferation was estimated by MTT assay. Pinitol treatment did not inhibit lipid accumulation, nor did it affect expression of adipogenesis-related factors, including ADD1, aP2 and FAS, in a dose-dependent manner. Expression of adiponectin, GLUT4, IRS, C/EBPalpha and PPARgamma mRNAs, however, increased in cells treated with 0.5 mM and/or 1 mM pinitol. Pinitol treatment did not affect the inhibition of cell growth and proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Accordingly, we suggest that pinitol is nontoxic to this cell line, and that it enhances adipogenesis by acting as an insulin sensitizer or insulin mediator via the upregulation of adiponectin, GLUT4, IRS, C/EBPalpha and PPARgamma in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. 相似文献

Western blot analysis of 3T3-L1 adipocyte proteins using an anti-C/EBPalpha antibody detected a 24kD polypeptide in addition to the expected 42 and 30kD isoforms of C/EBPalpha. Mass spectrometric sequencing of the protein following its purification by HPLC and preparative 2D gel electrophoresis identified it as glutathione S-transferase zeta/maleylacetoacetate isomerase (GSTzeta/MAAI). Expression of GSTzeta/MAAI mRNA and protein was induced during the terminal phase of adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Ectopic expression of PPARgamma2 in NIH-3T3 fibroblasts exposed to insulin and troglitazone-induced perilipin production, but was incapable of activating GSTzeta/MAAI unless C/EBPalpha was also expressed. Similarly, ectopic expression of C/EBPalpha in PPARgamma +/- or PPARgamma -/- MEFs demonstrated that the C/EBPalpha-dependent induction of GSTzeta/MAAI production was dependent on expression of endogenous PPARgamma. These data suggest a role for GSTzeta/MAAI in mature adipocytes that may be responsive to the thiazolidinedione class of insulin sensitizing PPARgamma ligands. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) agonists such as the thiazolidinediones are insulin sensitizers used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. These compounds induce adipogenesis in cell culture models and increase weight gain in rodents and humans. We have identified a novel PPARgamma ligand, LG100641, that does not activate PPARgamma but selectively and competitively blocks thiazolidinedione-induced PPARgamma activation and adipocyte conversion. It also antagonizes target gene activation as well as repression in agonist-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. This novel PPARgamma antagonist does not block adipocyte differentiation induced by a ligand for the retinoid X receptor (RXR), the heterodimeric partner for PPARgamma, or by a differentiation cocktail containing insulin, dexamethasone, and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine. Surprisingly, LG100641, like the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone, increases glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Such selective PPARgamma antagonists may help determine whether insulin sensitization by thiazolidinediones is mediated solely through PPARgamma activation, and whether there are PPARgamma-ligand-independent pathways for adipocyte differentiation. If selective PPARgamma modulators block adipogenesis in vivo, they may prevent obesity, lower insulin resistance, and delay the onset of type 2 diabetes. 相似文献
