Adenosine deaminase (1 unit/ml) potentiated the lipolytic action of noradrenaline in adipocytes isolated from brown adipose tissue of 1- and 6-week-old rats by decreasing the EC50 (concn. giving 50% of maximal effect) for noradrenaline by 3-4-fold. With cells from neonatal rabbit tissue, adenosine deaminase only had a small, non-significant, effect on the EC50 for noradrenaline. Lipolysis in rat brown adipocytes was inhibited by low concentrations of N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA). Rabbit cells were far less sensitive to PIA. PIA, prostaglandin E1 and nicotinate all inhibited noradrenaline-stimulated respiration in rat brown adipocytes. Hypothyroidism diminished the maximum response of respiration and lipolysis to noradrenaline in rat cells and increased the EC50 for noradrenaline. Responsiveness of lipolysis to noradrenaline was particularly decreased in hypothyroidism and was partially restored by addition of adenosine deaminase. Lipolysis in cells from hypothyroid rats was more sensitive to the anti-lipolytic action of PIA. Bordetella pertussis toxin increased lipolysis in the presence of PIA, suggesting an involvement of the Ni guanine-nucleotide-binding protein in the control of brown-adipocyte metabolism.  相似文献

The responsiveness of lipolysis to the stimulatory agonists noradrenaline, corticotropin and glucagon and to the inhibitory agonists N6-phenylisopropyladenosine, prostaglandin E1 and nicotinic acid was investigated with rat white adipocytes incubated with a high concentration of adenosine deaminase (1 unit/ml). The cells were obtained from fed or 48 h-starved euthyroid animals or from fed or starved animals rendered hypothyroid by 4 weeks of treatment with low-iodine diet and propylthiouracil. Hypothyroidism increased sensitivity to and efficacy of all three inhibitory agonists in their opposition of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis. Starvation decreased sensitivity to all three inhibitory agonists when opposing basal lipolysis. Hypothyroidism decreased sensitivity to noradrenaline, glucagon and corticotropin by 37-, 4- and 4-fold respectively and decreased the maximum response to these agonists by approx. 50%, 50% and 75% respectively. Starvation reversed decreases in maximum response to these agonists in hypothyroidism. Starvation in the euthyroid state increased sensitivity to glucagon and noradrenaline, but did not alter sensitivity to corticotropin. Cells from hypothyroid rats were relatively insensitive to Bordetella pertussis toxin, which substantially increased basal lipolysis in the euthyroid state.  相似文献

1. Lipolysis has been measured in parametrial adipocytes from virgin, pregnant and lactating rats. 2. The basal rate and the maximal rate of lipolysis, the latter measured in the presence of noradrenaline and theophylline, remained constant between the three experimental categories, with the exception of a significant transient increase in the basal rate at parturition. 3. The noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis rate rose above the virgin rate during pregnancy and fell below it during lactation; inclusion of adenosine deaminase in incubations abolished these differences in response to noradrenaline. 4. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity was lower in adipocytes during pregnancy and lactation than in virgin animals.  相似文献

1. Adipocytes isolated from rats 6--9 days after adrenalectomy had significantly increased sensitivity to insulin action against noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis. In the presence of adenosine deaminase there was no significant difference in insulin sensitivity between cells from adrenalectomized and sham-operated rats. 2. Adipocytes from adrenalectomized rats had decreased lipolytic responses to all concentrations of noradrenaline and glucagon tested and a decreased lipolytic response to low but not high concentrations of corticotropin. There was no difference in lipolytic response to theophylline after adrenalectomy. Adenosine deaminase corrected the differences in response to noradrenaline and glucagon resulting from adrenalectomy. 3. In the presence of adenosine deaminase rates of lipolysis, after stimulation by high concentrations of noradrenaline, glucagon, corticotropin or theophylline, were the same in cells from adrenalectomized or sham-operated rats. 4. These findings and previously reported effects of adenosine and adrenalectomy on adipocyte function are discussed. It is proposed that changes in adipocyte hormone responsiveness after adrenalectomy may result from changes in adenosine metabolism or release.  相似文献

1. The effects of insulin (2 nM and 4 nM) upon oxygen consumption (VO2), lipolysis rates and indirectly derived rates of fatty acid utilization, by isolated brown adipocytes from warm-acclimated (W cells) and cold-acclimated (C cells) animals, induced by noradrenaline and glucagon separately and conjointly, are reported. 2. Changes in interrelationships (coupling) between the parameters under different treatment regimes were assessed using bivariate regression analyses. 3. Administration of glucagon with noradrenaline increased lipolysis/fatty acid utilization coupling without concomitant increase of VO2 suggesting that glucagon may increase re-esterification through glycogenolytic generation of glycerol 3-phosphate, trapping intracellular fatty acid in excess of the capacity of disposal mechanisms, thus conserving respiratory substrate. 4. W cells were unresponsive to glucagon in terms of lipolysis and VO2, C cells responded to glucagon with parallel increases in lipolysis rate and VO2. Both cell types responded to noradrenaline alone and conjointly with glucagon; C cells were more sensitive to these agonists than W cells. 5. Lipolysis/VO2 coupling was reduced in C cells suggesting that in cold acclimation, noradrenaline-induced lipolysis rates are in excess of the capacity of cellular oxidation/re-esterification mechanisms. 6. Insulin inhibited noradrenaline and glucagon-induced lipolysis, simultaneously increasing VO2, supporting the hypothesis that glucose may be a thermogenic substrate in brown adipase tissue, permitting concurrent thermogenesis and lipogenesis. C cells were more insulin-sensitive than W cells. 7. The data indicate that insulin may mediate its effects (additively with noradrenaline) by activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase, generating glycolytic flux and, in the presence of noradrenaline-inhibited lipogenesis, generate additional oxaloacetate, permitting increased beta-oxidation.  相似文献

The rate of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis is lower in fat-cells from lactating than from pregnant rats; this difference is eliminated by the addition of adenosine deaminase [Aitchison, Clegg & Vernon (1982) Biochem. J. 202, 243-247]. The activity of 5'-nucleotidase, and hence the capacity of the cells to synthesize adenosine, was the same in fat-cells and also stromal cells of adipose tissue from pregnant, lactating and male rats. The response and sensitivity of fat-cells to the anti-lipolytic effects of adenosine were measured by incubating cells in the presence of noradrenaline, adenosine deaminase (to remove endogenous adenosine) and various concentrations of the adenosine analogue N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA). PIA caused a greater inhibition of the rate of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis in adipocytes from lactating than from pregnant rats. The concentration of PIA required to inhibit by 50% the rate of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis fell from over 100 nM for fat-cells from pregnant rats to 30 nM for fat-cells from lactating rats. The decreased rate of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis during lactation was not due to the smaller mean cell volume of adipocytes during this state.  相似文献

The dose response effect of a new adenosine analogue, GR 79236 (N-[1S trans-2-hydroxycyclopentyl] adenosine) upon insulin sensitivity was examined in human adipocytes. The influence of adenosine upon insulin sensitivity for suppression of lipolysis and stimulation of glucose transport was examined. Removal of adenosine by use of adenosine deaminase stimulated lipolysis to the same extent as did 10–9 M noradrenaline. GR79236 brought about dose dependent inhibition of lipolysis with half-maximal effect at 11.3±7.8×10–9 M. When lipolysis was stimulated by noradrenaline alone the subsequent inhibition of lipolysis brought about by GR79236 was significantly greater than that of insulin. To examine adenosine effects on the insulin signalling pathway separately from those on lipolysis, the insulin sensitivity of glucose transport was examined. Removal of adenosine brought about a small but significant increase in the concentration of insulin required for half-maximal stimulation of glucose transport. Adenosine agonists offer promise as new agents for the modulation of metabolism in diabetes and other states of insulin resistance.  相似文献

Glycolytic flux was estimated in brown adipocytes by [3-3H]-glucose detritiation. Without insulin the process was slightly stimulated by noradrenaline or palmitate. Insulin stimulated glucose detritiation by 4-fold. Noradrenaline stimulated the process in the presence of insulin and synergism between these hormones was observed. Palmitate did not stimulate glucose detritiation in the presence of insulin suggesting that the effect of noradrenaline is not secondary to stimulation of lipolysis. With insulin, cells from streptozotocin-diabetic rats showed lower rates of glucose detritiation. Extracts from these cells also had lower maximum activities of phosphofructokinase.  相似文献

The ability of catecholamines to maximally stimulate adipocyte lipolysis (lipolytic capacity) is decreased in obesity. It is not known whether the lipolytic capacity is determined by the ability of adipocytes to differentiate. The aim of the study was to investigate if lipolytic capacity is related to preadipocyte differentiation and if the latter can predict lipolysis in mature adipocytes. IN VITRO experiments were performed on differentiating preadipocytes and isolated mature adipocytes from human subcutaneous adipose tissue. In preadipocytes, noradrenaline-induced lipolysis increased significantly until terminal differentiation (day 12). However, changes in the expression of genes involved in lipolysis (hormone sensitive lipase, adipocyte triglyceride lipase, the alpha2-and beta1-adrenoceptors, perilipin, and fatty acid binding protein) reached a plateau much earlier during differentiation (day 8). A significant positive correlation between lipolysis in differentiated preadipocytes and mature adipocytes was observed for noradrenaline (r=0.5, p<0.01). The late differentiation capacity of preadipocytes measured as glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was positively correlated with noradrenaline-induced lipolysis in preadipocytes (r=0.51, p<0.005) and mature fat cells (r=0.35, p<0.05). In conclusion, intrinsic properties related to terminal differentiation determine the ability of catecholamines to maximally stimulate lipolysis in fat cells. The inability to undergo full differentiation might in part explain the low lipolytic capacity of fat cells among the obese.  相似文献

In the Langendorff heart, lipolysis is arrested when glycogenolysis is inhibited by the addition of 5-gluconolactone. Glucose partially overcomes the inhibition as well as uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation by dinitrophenol. In isolated fat cells hormone-sensitive lipolysis is also inhibited by glycogenolysis inhibition and in these cells also, glucose addition overcomes the inhibition. In fat cells, uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation does not stimulate lipolysis, probably because of the relatively low concentration of mitochondria in white adipose tissue. The data are interpreted that both in heart and adipose tissue cells, the removal of fatty acids produced by the endogenous lipase is the main stimulus for lipolysis. Attempts to generate in fat cells glycerol-3-phosphate by glycerogenesis from pyruvate or lactate led to the observation that not only these latter anions, but also propionate and acetate strongly stimulate lipolysis. It suggests that long-chain fatty acid removal from fat cells may be stimulated by anion exchange.  相似文献

The perifused fat cell system is a system with which lipolytic activity can be monitored on a minute-to-minute basis. Thus, the rate at which lipolysis changes following the addition and removal of hormones can be followed. Catecholamines and other lipolytic agents produced a time-dependent increase in lipolysis following addition of agents, and a time-dependent decrease in lipolysis occurred following removal of the agent. ACTH also produced an increase in lipolysis. However, on termination of ACTH infusion, the lipolytic rate did not return to basal level but remained elevated for at least an additional 30 min (persistent phase). The persistent phase could be terminated by removal of Ca2+. Readdition of Ca2+ in the absence of additional ACTH resulted in a rapid increase in glycerol release. No persistant phase occurred following ACTH if the adipocytes were perifused in a Ca2+-free buffer. However, if Ca2+ was added to the system 20 min after termination of ACTH infusion, lipolysis increased to a rate greater than that obtained initially by infusing ACTH in a Ca2+-free buffer. It is concluded that ACTH is bound to some component of the fat cell in a Ca2+ independent, tenacious manner, and the full manifestation of that binding is dependent on the presence of Ca2+.  相似文献

The present study was performed to analyze in detail gender- and site-related alterations in the adrenergic signal transduction pathway of lipolysis in fat cells isolated from subcutaneous abdominal and visceral fat depots from severely obese patients. The study group consisted of 30 morbidly obese subjects (9 men and 21 women) aged 41.1+/-1.9 years, with a body mass index (BMI) of 54.7+/-1.7 kg/m2, who had undergone abdominal surgery. Protein levels of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and adrenergic receptors (AR), as well as HSL activity and the lipolytic response to adrenergic agents were analyzed. Both fat depots had similar basal lipolysis, but the capacity of catecholamines to activate lipolysis was greater in visceral fat, both at AR and postreceptor levels. Basal lipolysis and lipolytic activity induced by dibutyryl cyclic AMP were higher in men than in women. However, the visceral depot of women showed a higher maximal stimulation by noradrenaline than that of men, in accordance with higher beta1- and beta3-AR protein levels. In conclusion, the main gender-related differences were located in the visceral depot, with women exhibiting a higher sensitivity to catecholamines associated with an increased provision of beta-AR, while men showed an enhanced lipolytic capacity at the postreceptor level.  相似文献

The fate of apo C in rat plasma very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) during lipolysis was studied using VLDL labeled specifically with 125I-labeled apo C and purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase. Incubations were carried out in vitro and included serum-containing systems and albumin containing systems. Free fatty acids generation proceeded with time of incubation in the two systems. It, however, was enhanced 1.5--2 fold by the presence of serum. 125I-labeled apo C equilibrated between very low and high density lipoprotein (HDL) in both systems even when enzyme was not present in the incubation medium, or when the incubation was carried out at 0 degrees C. Upon initiation of lipolysis, more 125I-labeled apo C was transferred to HDL and the transfer was proportional to the magnitude of free fatty acids release. 125I-labeled apo C was also progressively removed from VLDL in the albumin-containing system, although no known lipoprotein acceptor to apo C was present in the medium. The 125I-labeled apo C was recovered predominantly with the medium fraction of d greater than 1.21 g/ml (60--70%), and to a lesser degree with that of d= 1.019--1.21 g/ml. However, the relationship between lipolysis (measured as free fatty acids release) and removal of 125I-labeled apo C from VLDL were indistinguinshable in the albumin containing system and the serum containing system. On the basis of these observations, it is postulated that the removal of apo C during lipolysis of VLDL reflects the nature of the partially degraded VLDL particles, and is independent of the presence of a lipoprotein acceptor to apo C.  相似文献

Cushing's syndrome is associated with typical central redistribution of adipose tissue. The aim of the study was to assess lipolysis and catecholamines and their metabolites in subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue using an in-vivo microdialysis technique. Nine patients with Cushing's syndrome and nine age-, gender- and body mass index (BMI)-matched control subjects were included in the study. Local glycerol concentrations were significantly increased in subcutaneous adipose tissue of patients with Cushing's syndrome (p<0.001). Plasma noradrenaline, dihydroxyphenylglycol and dihydroxyphenylalanine were decreased in patients with Cushing's syndrome (p<0.02, p<0.05, and p<0.02, respectively). Adrenaline, noradrenaline, dihydroxyphenylglycol and dihydroxyphenylalanine concentrations in subcutaneous abdominal adipose were non-significantly higher in patients with Cushing's syndrome. In conclusion, we showed that lipolysis in subcutaneous adipose tissue of patients with Cushing's syndrome is significantly increased as compared to healthy subjects. This finding together with non-significantly increased local catecholamine concentrations in these patients suggests a possible link between increased lipolysis and catecholaminergic activity in subcutaneous adipose tissue.  相似文献

Incubation of rat adipocytes with the same range of noradrenaline concentrations that stimulate lipolysis caused a rapid and stable decrease in the activity of fatty acyl-CoA synthetase. Corticotropin, glucagon and dibutyryl cyclic AMP also decreased the activity of the enzyme. The effect of noradrenaline was apparent over a wide range of concentrations for the three substrates of the enzyme. A novel fluorescence assay of fatty acyl-CoA synthetase using (1,N6-etheno)-CoA is described. The effect of noradrenaline was not abolished by inclusion of albumin in homogenization buffers, persisted through subcellular fractionation and isolation of microsomes (microsomal fractions) and even survived treatment of microsomes with Triton X-100. The effect of noradrenaline was rapidly reversed within cells by the subsequent addition of insulin or propranolol. The inclusion of fluoride in homogenization buffers did not alter the observed effect of noradrenaline. Additions of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase to adipocyte microsomes caused considerable phosphorylation of microsomal protein by [gamma-32P]ATP, but did not affect the activity of fatty acyl-CoA synthetase.  相似文献

1. Adipocytes were isolated from the interscapular brown fat of male rats maintained at 21 degrees C. These animals were controls, streptozotocin-diabetics or 2-day insulin-treated diabetics. 2. With adipocytes from diabetic animals, maximum rates of noradrenaline-stimulated O2 uptake were decreased by 58%, and the Bmax. of [3H]GDP binding to mitochondria was decreased by 55%. Insulin administration reversed both of these changes. 3. Streptozotocin-diabetes increased basal lipolysis in adipocytes incubated with adenosine deaminase (1 unit/ml), decreased the EC50 (concn. giving 50% of maximum effect) for noradrenaline, but did not change the maximum rate of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis. Except for some small differences at very low concentrations (10-100 pM), diabetes or insulin treatment did not alter the sensitivity of noradrenaline-stimulated lipolysis or O2 uptake to the inhibitory effect of N6-phenylisopropyladenosine. It is therefore concluded that the lesion(s) in thermogenesis in diabetes are not attributable to any changes in lipolysis. 4. Blood flow through interscapular brown fat, measured by accumulation of [14C]DDT [14C-labelled 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-chlorophenyl)ethane] was increased by 2.3-fold 70 min after a single administration of insulin to diabetic rats. This treatment decreased blood flow through epididymal white fat by 58%. 5. Propranolol treatment of diabetic rats muted the ability of insulin treatment to increase the maximum rate of noradrenaline-stimulated O2 uptake, suggesting that this action of insulin may be a secondary one rather than a direct effect of the hormone on the adipocytes.  相似文献

In this study we have investigated the effects of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) lipolysis on the removal of radiolabeled apolipoprotein C-II and apolipoprotein C-III-1 from in vitro lipolyzed lipoproteins. Lipolysis was carried out in vitro using lipoprotein lipase purified from bovine milk, and mixtures with or without plasma. Lipoproteins were isolated by ultracentrifugation and by gel filtration. Labeled apo-C-II and apo-C-III-1 distributed among plasma lipoproteins, predominantly VLDL and high density lipoprotein (HDL). Lipolysis induced transfer of apo-C-II and apo-C-III-1 from VLDL to HDL. The transfer was proportional to the extent of triglyceride hydrolysis, and similar for the two apoproteins. The apo-C-II/apo-C-III-1 radioactivity ratio did not change in either VLDL or the fraction of d greater than 1.006 g/ml during the progression of the lipolytic process. Similar observations were recorded while using plasma-devoid lipolytic systems. Gel filtration of incubation mixtures, on 6% agarose, revealed that the removal of labeled apo-C molecules from VLDL is not a consequence of either centrifugation or high salt concentration. These results suggest that there is no preferential removal of apo-C-II or apo-C-III-1 from lipolyzed VLDL particles. They further indicate that the ratio of apo-C-II to apo-C-III-1 does not regulate the extent of lipolysis of different VLDL particles, at least in VLDL isolated from normolipidemic humans.  相似文献

The anti-lipolytic effect of the adenosine analogue N6-L-phenylisopropyladenosine was studied with rat adipocytes incubated with a high concentration of adenosine deaminase (0.5 unit/ml, approx. 2.5 micrograms/ml) and concentrations of noradrenaline that were equieffective in different physiological states. These studies were performed to compare the fed and starved (24h) states and to compare a hypothyroid state (induced by feeding propylthiouracil + a low-iodine diet) with the euthyroid state. Starvation increased sensitivity of the cells to the lipolytic action of noradrenaline, while decreasing sensitivity to the antilipolytic action of phenylisopropyladenosine. Hypothyroidism resulted in decreased sensitivity to noradrenaline and increased sensitivity to phenylisopropyladenosine. Studies of the binding of [3H]phenylisopropyladenosine to adipocyte plasma membranes indicated heterogeneity of binding sites or negative co-operativity in the binding. Starvation did not change [3H]phenylisopropyladenosine binding to membranes, whereas hypothyroidism caused an unexpected decrease in both the number and affinity of the binding sites. These observations are discussed in terms of the dual regulation of adipose-tissue lipolysis by lipolytic and anti-lipolytic agents.  相似文献

Prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) inhibited noradrenaline induced cyclic AMP accumulation in isolated rat fat cells in a dose-dependent manner. IC50 was 10-25 ng/ml both in the absence and in the presence of theophylline. The degree of inhibition produced by PGH2 increased with time of incubation. A stable PGH2 analog did not inhibit cyclic AMP accumulation. PGH2 was rapidly converted by isolated fat cells to PGD2, PGE2 and PGF2alpha' but no formation of thromboxane B2 was found either in vitro or in vivo. PGE2 was a more potent inhibitor than PGH2 of noradrenaline induced cyclic AMP accumulation. PGD2 enhanced cyclic AMP accumulation in a limited concentration interval, while PGF2alpha was essentially uneffective. Our results suggest that PGH2 is an inhibitor of cyclic AMP formation in isolated rat fat cells only after conversion to PGE2. A physiological role for PGH2 as a modulator of lipolysis is considered unlikely.  相似文献

Activation of lipolysis by cyclic AMP in conditions with accelerated lipid mobilization was examined in subcutaneous adipose tissue incubated in vitro. In (a) 16 obese patients before and during therapeutic starvation, (b) 18 diabetics before and after antidiabetic treatment and (c) 11 hyperthyroid patients before and after anti-thyroid treatment, a positive correlation was found between stimulation of basal cyclic AMP accumulation and stimulation of basal glycerol release using either isopropyl noradrenaline or noradrenaline (r = 0.6-0.9). During antidiabetic treatment stimulation of lipolysis increased in relation to that of cyclic AMP accumulation (F = 10.1, p less than 0.01), whereas during antithyroid therapy there was a decrease (F = 95.2, p less than 0.01). Starvation did not alter the relationship between lipolysis and cyclic AMP in hypogastric adipose tissue whereas in femoral tissue stimulation of lipolysis decreased in relation to that of cyclic AMP accumulation (F = 9.6, p less than 0.01). It is concluded that the amount of cyclic AMP needed to promote lipolysis is increased during starvation and in diabetes mellitus but is decreased in hyperthyroidism. From the studies during starvation it appears that regional differences in the post-receptor activation of lipolysis exist in human adipose tissue.  相似文献
