Adipose depots that contain lymph nodes, and probably intermuscular fat in skeletal and cardiac muscle, are specialized to provision adjacent tissue in a paracrine mode. Perinodal adipocytes respond selectively to various cytokines and incorporate proportionately more polyunsaturated fatty acids. Lipolysis in the adipocytes of node-containing depots can be stimulated via inflammation of the enclosed lymph nodes. Repeated immune stimulation elicits properties characteristic of perinodal adipocytes in those elsewhere in the same depot, and hours later in other node-containing depots, but not in nodeless depots. Such site-specific properties of adipose tissue enable partitioning of dietary and metabolic supplies of fatty acids between competing tissues. Local interactions emancipate the peripheral immune system from competing with other tissues for lipids during immune responses, and may be especially important during periods of high demand, such as strenuous exercise. Biopsies of subcutaneous adipose tissue from sites remote from lymph nodes do not adequately represent the composition of fatty acids available to the immune system in situ, and perhaps that supplied to other tissues. Intermuscular fat in skeletal and cardiac muscle may also indicate paracrine relationships between adipocytes and "end-user" tissues. The concept of paracrine interactions between certain adipocytes and "user" tissue may account for the widespread contiguity between these tissues in vivo. 相似文献

The role of white and brown adipose tissues in energy metabolism is well established. However, the existence of brown fat in adult humans was until very recently a matter of debate, and the molecular mechanisms underlying brown adipocyte development remained largely unknown. In 2009, several studies brought direct evidence for functional brown adipose tissue in adults. New factors involved in brown fat cell differentiation have been identified. Moreover, work on the origin of fat cells took an unexpected path with the recognition of different populations of brown fat cell precursors according to the anatomical location of the fat depots: a precursor common to skeletal muscle cells and brown adipocytes from brown fat depots, and a progenitor cell common to white adipocytes and brown adipocytes that appear in certain conditions in white fat depots. There is also mounting evidence that mature white adipocytes, including human fat cells, can be converted into brown fat-like adipocytes, and that the typical fatty acid storage phenotype of white adipocyte can be altered towards a fat utilization phenotype. These data open up new opportunities for the development of drugs for obesity and its metabolic and cardiovascular complications. 相似文献

The aim of this investigation was to characterise the fatty acid composition within intramuscular fat (IMF) of two muscles
(breast and thigh) from 28 pheasants, ten wild ducks and 27 black coots from Slovakia. A high variability for all single fatty
acids (FA) and the total fat concentration in muscles of wild birds was identified. Black coots deposited the highest fat
in breast muscle whereas wild ducks and pheasants accumulated more lipids in thigh muscle. In general, the content of polyunsaturated
fatty acids (PUFA) of the IMF in wild bird muscles was high, and the saturated FA concentration was lower compared with muscles
of domestic farm animals. The ratio between PUFA and saturated fatty acids (PSQ) ranked between 0.6 and 1.2, and the ratio
of n-6/n-3 fatty acid was favourably low in black coot and wild pheasants (3.2 and 2.9, respectively). Farmed pheasants had increased
IMF and more saturated and n-6 fatty acids deposited in thigh muscle but not in breast muscle. 相似文献

The purpose of this investigation was to explore interactions between adrenergic stimulation, glucocorticoids, and insulin on the lipolytic rate in isolated human adipocytes from subcutaneous and omental fat depots, and to address possible sex differences. Fat biopsies were obtained from 48 nondiabetic subjects undergoing elective abdominal surgery. Lipolysis rate was measured as glycerol release from isolated cells and proteins involved in lipolysis regulation were assessed by immunoblots. Fasting blood samples were obtained and metabolic and inflammatory variables were analyzed. In women, the rate of 8-bromo-cAMP- and isoprenaline-stimulated lipolysis was approximately 2- and 1.5-fold higher, respectively, in subcutaneous compared to omental adipocytes, whereas there was no difference between the two depots in men. Dexamethasone treatment increased the ability of 8-bromo-cAMP to stimulate lipolysis in the subcutaneous depot in women, but had no consistent effects in fat cells from men. Protein kinase A, Perilipin A, and hormone sensitive lipase content in adipocytes was not affected by adipose depot, sex, or glucocorticoid treatment. In conclusion, catecholamine and glucocorticoid regulation of lipolysis in isolated human adipocytes differs between adipose tissue depots and also between sexes. These findings may be of relevance for the interaction between endogenous stress hormones and adipose tissue function in visceral adiposity and the metabolic syndrome. 相似文献

Immunocastrated pigs (IC) exhibit intensive fat deposition after immunisation, but the underlying mechanisms of intensified fat metabolism and deposition are not yet fully understood. Moreover, there is also a lack of comparative studies performed on IC, entire males (EM) and surgical castrates (SC). The main objective of our research was, therefore, to characterise the adipose tissue from the quantitative, histo-morphological and biochemical perspectives in IC 5 weeks after their immunisation in comparison to EM and SC. Immunocastrated pigs had an intermediate position in carcass fatness traits between EM (the leanest) and SC (the fattest). The histo-morphological traits of the subcutaneous adipose tissue of IC were similar to those of SC and differed from those of EM; i.e., they exhibited larger adipocytes in the outer backfat and a larger lobulus surface area in both backfat layers than EM. Intensive fat tissue development in IC was corroborated with higher activities of lipogenic enzymes (i.e., fatty acid synthase, malic enzyme, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, citrate cleavage enzyme), which was especially pronounced in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of IC (1.5- to 2.7-fold higher activity than in EM or SC). The fatty acid composition of the backfat in IC was similar to that in EM pigs. Both IC and EM exhibited less saturated and more polyunsaturated fatty acids than SC. In contrast, the fatty acid composition of the intramuscular fat of longissimus dorsi muscle in IC pigs was more similar to SC than to EM (higher monounsaturated and lower polyunsaturated fatty acid content in IC and SC than EM). In this study, it was demonstrated that immunocastration notably influenced lipid metabolism. This was shown by increased quantity of lipid depots and with changes in adipose tissue cellularity compared to EM, with changes in the fatty acid composition of the intramuscular fat and enhanced lipogenic activity compared to both EM and SC. These results provide new insights into the specificity of adipose tissue development and deposition in IC compared to EM and SC. 相似文献

The distributions of the diameters of skeletal muscle fibres and adipocytes were studied in rainbow trout. The cellularity of perivisceral adipose tissues and subcutaneous ventral and dorsal adipose tissues were characterized more specifically. In these tissues, a population of small adipocytes was distinguishable from larger adipocytes. The same was observed in white muscle. The effects of extrinsic factors (dietary lipid in two different thermal conditions) and intrinsic factors (strains in two different saline conditions, growth hormone) on the long-term response of the cellularity of both muscle and adipose tissues were studied. The effects of thermal environment were tested on fish fed the same ration and the effects of saline environment on fish fed ad libitum. The mean size of white muscle fibres was relatively unaffected by the different treatments tested: genetic origin and dietary lipid in different environmental conditions. There were significant differences in growth rate due to genetic origin and saline environment. The possible involvement of hyperplasia in response to these different factors is discussed. Growth hormone supplementation enhanced the percentage of small diameter fibres indicating a role of this hormone in the control of muscle hyperplastic growth. The mean size of adipose cells was affected only slightly by the different treatments tested. An increase in adipose cell size with aging and lipid content was observed. The percentage of small adipocytes also increased with aging. Thus, it is proposed that the development of adipose tissues, and thus fat retention, both result from the recruitment of new adipocytes and from the increase in size of existing adipocytes. The hyperplastic process contributed significantly to the differences in fat retention due to different treatments tested (strains, thermal and saline environments). When partially substituting fish oils for corn oils in the diet, a large increase in the ventral adipose cell size was seen indicating a potential negative effect of n-6 fatty acids on cell proliferation. Growth hormone treatment, on the contrary, induced a decrease in the size of perivisceral adipocytes. Thus, diet and hormonal status affect adipose cells size through two different metabolic pathways: lipogenesis and lipolysis respectively. 相似文献

Recently a role of adipose tissue as an endocrine organ secreting factors involved in the regulation of whole-body energy homeostasis has emerged. Preadipocytes in different fat depots have distinct adipogenic potential and the metabolic activity differs between mature adipocytes of different depot origins. Here we describe the proliferation and differentiation of stromal-vascular cells derived from subcutaneous and visceral fat depots of adult pigs. We demonstrate that subcutaneous porcine preadipocytes proliferate more actively and that individual subcutaneous adipocytes have a more rapid accumulation of triacylglycerols than visceral cells. During differentiation, subcutaneous and visceral preadipocytes showed similar gene expression patterns with increased expression of adiponectin (APM1), adipocyte-specific fatty acid binding protein (FABP4), catalase (CAT), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPARG2). Furthermore, initial data showing depot-originated effects on the expression of CAT, carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1B (CPT1B) and FABP4 suggest possible depot specific differences in the function and metabolism of mature porcine adipocytes. 相似文献

A growing body of evidence is pointing out the pathophysiological role of fat accumulation in different organs. Ectopic fat depots within heart, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, and pancreas as well as around blood vessels might be more associated to cardiometabolic risk than classical variables, such as body mass index. Among different mechanisms, lipid metabolism appears to be particularly influenced by ectopic fat depots. Indeed, intracellular accumulation of nonesterified fatty acids, and triglycerides promotes endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial uncoupling, oxidative stress, and altered membrane composition/function, finally promoting inflammatory response and cell death. The dysfunctional adipose tissue was shown to induce both local and systemic effects, with relevant clinical consequences. Epicardial fat and myocardial steatosis have been associated with the development of atrial fibrillation and ventricular dysfunction. Similarly perivascular adipose tissue appears to trigger atherosclerosis and hypertension. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease has been recognized both as the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome and as a cardiovascular (CV) risk factor. Importantly, the renal sinus fat emerged as a potential player in kidney dysfunction. Finally, both skeletal muscle and pancreatic fat depots have been indicated as potential endocrine modulators of insulin resistance. Considering the global rise in the prevalence of obesity, the understanding of mechanisms underlying ectopic fat accumulation represents an urgent need, with potential clinical implications for CV risk stratification. Here, we attempt to update the current knowledge of the different ectopic fat depots, focusing on underlying mechanisms and potential clinical implications. 相似文献

On the role of liver X receptors in lipid accumulation in adipocytes 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The pivotal role of liver X receptors (LXRs) in the metabolic conversion of cholesterol to bile acids in mice is well established. More recently, the LXRalpha promoter has been shown to be under tight regulation by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), implying a role for LXRalpha in mediating the interplay between cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. We have studied the role of LXR in fat cells and demonstrate that LXR is regulated during adipogenesis and augments fat accumulation in mature adipocytes. LXRalpha expression in murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes as well as in human adipocytes was up-regulated in response to PPARgamma agonists. Administration of a PPARgamma agonist to obese Zucker rats also led to increased LXRalpha mRNA expression in adipose tissue in vivo. LXR agonist treatment of differentiating adipocytes led to increased lipid accumulation. An increase of the expression of the LXR target genes, sterol regulatory binding protein-1 and fatty acid synthase, was observed both in vivo and in vitro after treatment with LXR agonists for 24 h. Finally, we demonstrate that fat depots in LXRalpha/beta-deficient mice are smaller than in age-matched wild-type littermates. These findings imply a role for LXR in controlling lipid storage capacity in mature adipocytes and point to an intriguing physiological interplay between LXR and PPARgamma in controlling pathways in lipid handling. 相似文献

The obesity epidemic has intensified efforts to understand the mechanisms controlling adipose tissue development. Adipose tissue is generally classified as white adipose tissue (WAT), the major energy storing tissue, or brown adipose tissue (BAT), which mediates non-shivering thermogenesis. It is hypothesized that brite adipocytes (brown in white) may represent a third adipocyte class. The recent realization that brown fat exist in adult humans suggests increasing brown fat energy expenditure could be a therapeutic strategy to combat obesity. To understand adipose tissue development, several groups are tracing the origins of mature adipocytes back to their adult precursor and embryonic ancestors. From these studies emerged a model that brown adipocytes originate from a precursor shared with skeletal muscle that expresses Myf5-Cre, while all white adipocytes originate from a Myf5-negative precursors. While this provided a rational explanation to why BAT is more metabolically favorable than WAT, recent work indicates the situation is more complex because subsets of white adipocytes also arise from Myf5-Cre expressing precursors. Lineage tracing studies further suggest that the vasculature may provide a niche supporting both brown and white adipocyte progenitors; however, the identity of the adipocyte progenitor cell is under debate. Differences in origin between adipocytes could explain metabolic heterogeneity between depots and/or influence body fat patterning particularly in lipodystrophy disorders. Here, we discuss recent insights into adipose tissue origins highlighting lineage-tracing studies in mice, how variations in metabolism or signaling between lineages could affect body fat distribution, and the questions that remain unresolved.

Adipocytes anatomically associated with lymph nodes (and omental milky spots) have many special properties including fatty acid composition and the control of lipolysis that equip them to interact locally with lymphoid cells. Lymph node lymphocytes and tissue dendritic cells acquire their fatty acids from the contiguous adipocytes. Lymph node-derived dendritic cells suppress lipolysis in perinodal adipocytes but those that permeate the adipose tissue stimulate lipolysis, especially after minor, local immune stimulation. Inflammation alters the composition of fatty acids incorporated into dendritic cells, and that of node-containing adipose tissue, counteracting the effects of dietary lipids. Thus these specialised adipocytes partially emancipate the immune system from fluctuations in the abundance and composition of dietary lipids. Prolonged, low-level immune stimulation induces the local formation of more adipocytes, especially adjacent to the inflamed lymph node. This mechanism may contribute to hypertrophy of the mesentery and omentum in chronic inflammatory diseases such as HIV-infection, and in smokers. Paracrine interactions between adipose and lymphoid tissues are enhanced by diets rich in n-6 fatty acids and attentuated by fish oils. The latter improve immune function and body conformation in animals and people. The partitioning of adipose tissue in many depots, some specialised for local, paracrine interactions with other tissues, is a fundamental feature of mammals. 相似文献

It is well established that the metabolic risk factors of obesity and its comorbidities are more attributed to adipose tissue distribution rather than total adipose mass. Since emerging evidence suggests that epigenetic regulation plays an important role in the aetiology of obesity, we conducted a genome-wide methylation analysis on eight different adipose depots of three pig breeds living within comparable environments but displaying distinct fat level using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing. We aimed to investigate the systematic association between anatomical location-specific DNA methylation status of different adipose depots and obesity-related phenotypes. We show here that compared to subcutaneous adipose tissues which primarily modulate metabolic indicators, visceral adipose tissues and intermuscular adipose tissue, which are the metabolic risk factors of obesity, are primarily associated with impaired inflammatory and immune responses. This study presents epigenetic evidence for functionally relevant methylation differences between different adipose depots. 相似文献

Two fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) are expressed in adipose tissue, adipocyte lipid binding protein (ALBP) and keratinocyte lipid binding protein (KLBP). This study investigated FABP expression in visceral and subcutaneous human adipose tissue depots and associations with lipolytic differences between the depots and circulating insulin concentrations. ALBP and KLBP (protein and RNA) were quantified in subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue from obese individuals and expressed relative to actin. ALBP RNA and protein expression was significantly higher in subcutaneous compared to omental adipose tissue (both p < 0.05), whereas KLBP RNA and protein expression was no different between the two sites. There were significant inverse correlations between serum insulin concentrations and the ALBP/KLBP RNA ratio in both subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue (both p < 0.02). Basal rates of glycerol and fatty acid release measured in adipocytes isolated from subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue were significantly higher in the former (p 0.02). Therefore the relative ALBP/KLBP content of human adipose tissue is different in different adipose tissue depots and at the RNA level is related to the circulating insulin concentration, at least in obese subjects. The higher rates of basal lipolysis in adipocytes isolated from subcutaneous compared to omental adipose tissue might be related to the increased ALBP content of the former. Therefore adipose tissue FABPs are interesting candidates for investigation to further our understanding of the insulin resistance syndrome and regulation of lipolysis. 相似文献

Obesity is characterised by excessive accumulation of fat in white adipose tissue (WAT) which is compartmentalised into two anatomically and functionally diverse depots - visceral and subcutaneous. Advice to substitute essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) for saturated fatty acids is a cornerstone of various obesity management strategies. Despite an array of reports on the role of essential PUFAs on obesity, there still exists a lacuna on their mode of action in distinct depots i.e. visceral (VWAT) and subcutaneous (SWAT). The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of fish oil and corn oil on VWAT and SWAT in high-fat-diet-induced rodent model of obesity. Fish oil (FO) supplementation positively ameliorated the effects of HFD by regulating the anthropometrical and serum lipid parameters. FO led to an overall reduction in fat mass in both depots while specifically inducing beiging of adipocytes in SWAT as indicated by increased UCP1 and PGC1α. We also observed an upregulation of AMPKα and ACC1/2 phosphorylation on FO supplementation in SWAT suggesting a role of AMPK-PGC1α-UCP1 axis in beiging of adipose tissue. On the other hand, corn oil supplementation did not show any improvements in adipose tissue metabolism in both the depots of adipose tissue. The results were analysed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's test in Graphpad Prism 5.0. Combined together our results suggest that n-3 PUFAs exert their anti-obesity effect by regulating adipokine secretion and inducing beiging of SWAT, hence increasing energy expenditure via thermogenic upregulation. 相似文献
