Porcine adipose tissue glucose metabolism and lipolytic rates have been measured for many years by numerous investigators. However, there is little or no documented indication of the effects of variation in tissue handling procedures or variations in incubation medium components on metabolic rates. We have systematically varied conditions to provide such documentation for these much used techniques. The temperature (18 to 38 C) of tissue during transport had little effect. The medium for tissue transport probably should be buffered. Use of Hepes buffer at greater than 10 or 25 mM in incubation media inhibited glucose metabolism and lipolysis. Calcium ion effects on glucose metabolism or lipolysis could not be demonstrated. Dimethyl sulfoxide should not be used routinely. Ascorbate at .56 mM did not inhibit glucose metabolism or lipolysis. Glucose metabolism was increased by glucose concentration to about 5 mM and not inhibited at higher concentrations; we recommend 10 or 20 mM glucose to ensure maximal rates. Insulin stimulated glucose metabolism but effects were slight, not related to insulin concentration and not consistently observed. Addition of some albumin preparations did not allow expression of insulin stimulation; we recommend albumin be omitted or, if included, carefully monitored. Lipolytic rates were dependent on albumin concentration, but rates were similar with all albumin preparations. Insulin markedly inhibited hormone-stimulated but not basal lipolysis. Adenosine, an inhibitor of lipolysis, did not affect glucose metabolism rates. An artificial oxygen carrier did not increase anabolic activity. Incubation in serum increased rates of glucose metabolism relative to lipolysis so that refinement of the incubation might lead to greater anabolic than catabolic rates in vitro to reflect the status of adipose tissue in growing pigs in vivo. Tissue handling and incubation conditions can markedly affect metabolic rates, and should be understood and controlled.  相似文献

The effects of physiological (1, 10 ng/ml) and pharmacological (1,000 ng/ml) concentrations of insulin (INS) and porcine growth hormone (pGH) on lipid metabolism were determined in short-term (2 h) and long-term (26, 50 h) incubations of swine adipose tissue. The short-term effects of three different commercial sources of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on adipose tissue metabolism were also evaluated. Two of the three BSA preparations were found to be unsuitable for inclusion in the short-term incubation buffer because they caused a stimulation of lipid synthesis in adipose tissue and masked the stimulatory effects of insulin. Physiological concentrations of insulin stimulated glucose metabolism in 2-h incubations by 100% in adipose tissue from 80-kg swine. After a 26-h incubation period, INS maintained rates of glucose metabolism at levels comparable to maximally stimulated rates in fresh tissue. Insulin also enhanced glucose metabolism following 50-h incubations; however, rates were less than for 2- or 26-h incubations. Glucose metabolism was also stimulated in adipose tissue from 127-kg swine when incubated for 2 h with INS; however, INS responsiveness declined with increasing body weight. Lipogenesis and glucose oxidation were partially maintained by INS using tissue from the heavier swine. A pharmacological but not physiological concentration of pGH stimulated glucose metabolism in short-term incubations by 50% in adipose tissue from 80-kg swine, and by 10% in adipose tissue from 127-kg swine. Long-term culture of adipose tissue in the presence of pGH had no effect on glucose metabolism. Physiological levels of pGH directly antagonized the stimulation of glucose metabolism by INS in short- and long-term incubations. In summary, these results are the first to establish that swine adipose tissue is quite sensitive to insulin and that pGH directly antagonizes insulin action.  相似文献

The acute effects of insulin and adenosine on rates of lipolysis and lipogenesis in pig adipocytes were investigated to determine what limits the expression of the insulin response in vitro. Adenosine and insulin independently inhibited isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis. Adenosine, acting through the pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein Gi, was more effective than insulin and could completely inhibit lipolysis. Fatty acid synthesis from glucose was increased by both adenosine and insulin. Neutralization of endogenous adenosine with adenosine deaminase decreased basal rates of lipogenesis and increased the insulin response from 30 to 60% above basal. Neutralization of Gi with pertussis toxin further decreased the basal rate and increased the insulin response to 160% above basal. These data indicate that Gi, and the ligands that signal through Gi, stimulate glucose incorporation into fatty acids and can attenuate the insulin response. It seems likely that an exaggerated rate of glucose metabolism in the absence of insulin contributes to the inconsistent insulin responses exhibited in pig adipose tissue in vitro. These data also demonstrate that insulin and adenosine have major roles in regulating pig adipose tissue metabolism.  相似文献

The effects of the beta-adrenergic agonists isoproterenol, cimaterol, ractopamine and clenbuterol on lipolysis (release of glycerol and free fatty acids) and lipogenesis (incorporation of 14C into fatty acids from [14C]glucose) was examined in porcine adipose tissue explants in vitro. Lipolysis was stimulated by isoproterenol, cimaterol or ractopamine but not by clenbuterol. Insulin reduced the lipolytic effects of the beta-adrenergic agonists (isoproterenol, cimaterol and ractopamine). Lipogenesis was inhibited by all beta-adrenergic agonists tested (isoproterenol, cimaterol, ractopamine and clenbuterol). The antilipogenic effect of the beta-adrenergic agonists was reduced by the presence of insulin in the incubation. Although effects of the different beta-adrenergic agonists varied, all had some direct effects that could be expected to reduce adipose accretion. Effects of beta-adrenergic agonists in the pig are due in part to direct effects on adipose tissue.  相似文献

Porcine leptin inhibits lipogenesis in porcine adipocytes   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6  
The present study examined whether recombinant porcine leptin alters lipid synthesis in porcine adipocytes. The stromal-vascular cell fraction of neonatal pig subcutaneous adipose tissue was isolated by collagenase digestion, filtration, and subsequent centrifugation. These cells were seeded on 25-cm2 tissue culture flasks and proliferated to confluency in 10% (vol/vol) fetal bovine serum in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium/F12 (DMEM/F12, 50:50). Cultures were differentiated using 2.5% pig serum (vol/vol), 10 nM insulin, 100 nM hydrocortisone. After 7 d of lipid filling, cultures were washed free of this medium, incubated overnight in DMEM/F12 containing 2% pig serum (vol/vol), and then used for experiments. Acute experiments assessed U-(14)C-glucose or 1-(14)C-palmitate metabolism in cultures exposed to porcine leptin (0 to 1,000 ng/mL medium) for 4 h. Chronic experiments used cultures incubated with 0 to 1,000 ng porcine leptin/mL medium for 44 h before measurements of U-(14)C-glucose and 1-(14)C-palmitate oxidation and incorporation into lipid. Another experiment examined whether chronic leptin treatment alters insulin responsiveness by including insulin (10 nM) with incubations containing leptin. Leptin had no acute effects on glucose oxidation or conversion to lipid (P > 0.05). Acute leptin treatment decreased palmitate incorporation into lipids up to 45% (P < 0.05). Chronic leptin exposure decreased glucose oxidation (21%), total lipid synthesis (18%), and fatty acid synthesis (23%) at 100 ng/mL medium (P < 0.05). Insulin increased rates of glucose oxidation, total lipid, and fatty acid synthesis (P < 0.05); however, chronic exposure to 10 ng leptin/mL medium decreased the effectiveness of 10 nM insulin to affect these measures of glucose metabolism by approximately 18 to 46% (P < 0.05). Higher concentrations of leptin inhibited all effects of insulin on glucose metabolism (P < 0.05). Chronic exposure to leptin increased palmitate oxidation by 36% (P < 0.05). Chronic leptin exposure decreased palmitate incorporation into total lipids by 40% at 100 ng/mL medium (P < 0.05). Lipoprotein lipase activity was not affected (P > 0.05) by leptin. These data indicate that leptin functions to promote partitioning of energy away from lipid accretion within porcine adipose tissue by inhibiting glucose oxidation and lipogenesis indirectly, by decreasing insulin-mediated stimulation of lipogenesis, and by stimulating fatty acid oxidation while inhibiting fatty acid esterification.  相似文献

Ovine growth hormone ( oGH ) was tested for its effects on lipolysis of rat and ovine adipose tissue in vitro. Ovine growth hormone at 1, 5 and 25 micrograms/ml stimulated lipolysis (P less than .05) of chopped rat adipose tissue and isolated rat adipocytes incubated in the presence of 100 mU/ml adenosine deaminase and .2 micrograms/ml dexamethasone, but had no effect on lipolysis of chopped ovine adipose tissue or isolated ovine adipocytes. Isoproterenol, a beta-adrenergic agonist, stimulated lipolysis (P less than .05) of both rat and ovine adipose tissue. Contaminants of the oGH preparation used were examined for lipolytic effects. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) content in oGH were measured by radioimmunoassay. When quantities of these hormones contaminating 5 and 25 micrograms oGH were tested for lipolysis in rat adipose tissue, the TSH contamination could account for some (30%) of the lipolysis observed with oGH , while the other hormones had no effect. Also, preincubation of oGH with anti-GH, but not with anti-TSH or anti-LH, removed the principle in oGH responsible for the lipolytic effect on rat adipose tissue.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Effects of dietary cimaterol (5 mg/kg) on adipose tissue metabolism of wether lambs were studied. Lipogenesis, lipolysis, fatty acid composition and adipocyte size and number were measured. Cimaterol feeding increased lipogenesis; however, this effect was not statistically significant. Insulin (1,000 microU/ml) stimulated lipogenesis of adipose tissue from control sheep. However, this elevated rate was abolished by in vitro cimaterol. Insulin had no stimulatory effect on lipogenesis in cimaterol-fed sheep. Lipolysis was depressed by cimaterol feeding. However, 10(-4) M cimaterol stimulated lipolysis in the adipose tissue from both control and cimaterol-fed sheep. Insulin inhibited stimulated lipolysis in adipose tissue from control sheep but had no effect on the stimulated lipolysis in cimaterol-fed sheep. Mean adipocyte diameter was smaller (from 74 to 70 microns) and adipocyte size distribution also was changed in the cimaterol-fed sheep. Adipocyte number per gram of tissue was not affected by cimaterol. There was a significant increase in percentage of unsaturated fatty acids in adipose tissue from cimaterol-fed sheep. These results indicate that lipogenic and lipolytic responses to insulin and cimaterol in sheep adipose tissue were altered by cimaterol feeding. The carcass fat content decrease in cimaterol-fed sheep may be attributed to the reduction in adipocyte size.  相似文献

This study examined if leptin can acutely affect glucose or fatty acid metabolism in pig adipocytes and whether leptin's actions on lipogenesis are manifested through interaction with insulin or growth hormone. Subcutaneous adipose tissue was obtained from approximately 55 kg crossbred barrows at the USDA abattoir. Isolated adipocytes were prepared using a collagenase procedure. Experiments assessed U-14C-glucose or 1-14C-palmitate metabolism in isolated adipocytes exposed to: basal medium (control), 100 nM insulin, 100 ng/ml porcine growth hormone, 100 ng/ml recombinant porcine leptin, and combinations of these hormones. Treatments were performed in triplicate and the experiment was repeated with adipocytes isolated from five different animals. Cell aliquots (250 microl) were added to 1 ml of incubation medium, then incubated for 2h at 37 degrees C for measurement of glucose and palmitate oxidation or incorporation into lipid. Incubation of isolated adipocytes with insulin increased glucose oxidation rate by 18% (P<0.05), while neither growth hormone nor leptin affected glucose oxidation (P>0.5). Total lipid synthesis from glucose was increased by approximately 25% by 100 nM insulin or insulin+growth hormone (P<0.05). Insulin+leptin reduced the insulin response by 37% (P<0.05). The combination of all three hormones increased total lipid synthesis by 35%, relative to controls (P<0.05), a rate similar to insulin alone. Fatty acid synthesis was elevated by insulin (32%, P<0.05) or growth hormone (13%, P<0.05). Leptin had no effect on fatty acid synthesis (P>0.05). Leptin reduced the esterification rate by 10% (P<0.05). Growth hormone and insulin could overcome leptin's inhibition of palmitate esterification (P>0.05).  相似文献

Angus (n = 8; 210 kg of BW) and 7/8 Wagyu (n = 8; 174 kg of BW) steers were used to evaluate the effects of dietary energy source on muscle and adipose tissue metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Steers were assigned to either a grain-based (corn) or hay-based (hay) diet and fed to similar final BW. At slaughter, LM and s.c. and i.m. adipose tissue samples were collected. Portions of the LM and adipose tissues were placed immediately in liquid N for later measurement of glycolytic intermediates. Fresh LM and s.c. and i.m. adipose tissues were incubated with [U-(14)C]glucose to assess glucose metabolism in vitro. All in vitro measures were in the presence of 0 or 500 ng/mL of insulin. Also, s.c. and i.m. adipose tissues were incubated with [1-(14)C]acetate to quantify lipid synthesis in vitro. Glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate concentrations were 12.6- and 2.4-fold greater in muscle than in s.c. and i.m. adipose tissues, respectively. Diet did not affect acetate incorporation into fatty acids (P = 0.86). Insulin did not increase conversion of glucose to CO(2), lactate, or total lipid in steers fed hay but caused an increase (per cell) of 97 to 110% in glucose conversion to CO(2), 46 to 54% in glucose conversion to lactate, and 65 to 160% in glucose conversion to total lipid content in adipose tissue from steers fed corn. On a per-cell basis, s.c. adipose tissue had 37% greater glucose oxidation than i.m. adipose (P = 0.04) and 290% greater acetate incorporation into fatty acids than i.m. adipose (P = 0.04). Insulin addition to s.c. adipose tissue from corn-fed steers failed to stimulate glucose incorporation into fatty acids, but exposing i.m. adipose tissue from corn-fed steers to insulin resulted in a 165% increase in glucose incorporation into fatty acids. These results suggest that feeding hay limited both glucose supply and tissue capacity to increase glucose utilization in response to insulin without altering acetate conversion to fatty acids. Because s.c. adipose tissue consistently utilized more acetate and oxidized more glucose than did i.m. adipose, these results suggest that hay-based diets may alter i.m. adipose tissue metabolism with less effect on s.c. adipose tissue.  相似文献

Compared with adipose tissue from other mammals, porcine adipose tissue has stringent specificity for stimulation of lipolysis by analogs of norepinephrine. This study was to ascertain whether the specificity for control was reflected in the concentration of tissue cyclic AMP (cAMP). Adipose tissue slices were incubated and concentrations of tissue cAMP and free fatty acids (FA) released to the medium were measured. It was necessary to include theophylline in the incubation medium to be able to measure changes in cAMP concentration. Fatty acid release and cAMP production were increased most effectively by the beta-adrenergic agonists; isoproterenol, fenoterol, dobutamine and the mixed alpha- + beta-adrenergic agonist, epinephrine. Isoproterenol-stimulated FA and cAMP production both inhibited by the beta-adrenergic antagonist, propranolol. There was no evidence for alpha 2-adrenergic inhibition of lipolysis in porcine adipose tissue because clonidine (alpha 2-adrenergic agonist) did not lower isoproterenol-induced FA or cAMP levels and phentolamine, an alpha-adrenergic antagonist, did not increase epinephrine-stimulated FA release or cAMP generation. These results imply that the stringent specificity observed for stimulation of swine adipose tissue lipolysis resides in the beta-adrenergic receptor coupled to cAMP production.  相似文献

This study was conducted to examine the effect of insulin on lipid metabolism of adipocytes during pregnancy and lactation in ewes. During the first 3 mo of pregnancy, metabolism of adipocytes from omental adipose tissue was characterized by a high rate of de novo lipogenesis (90 to 125 nmol of acetate incorporated into lipids.2 h-1.10(6) cells-1) and a 38% reduction in response to beta-lipolytic stimulus (isoproterenol 10(-6) M). Simultaneously, there was a rise in the number of high-affinity insulin receptors (Kd = .2 nM), and insulin binding characteristics showed a decrease in the negative cooperativity phenomenon. Moreover, lipogenesis stimulated by insulin (1 mU/ml) increased in comparison with observations in nonpregnant ewes. The last third of pregnancy and early lactation were characterized by a marked fall in lipogenesis and a simultaneous increase in isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis. During lactation, the number of total insulin receptors was decreased by 62% and insulin stimulation of lipogenesis became inefficient. Results suggest that insulin plays a direct role in adipose tissue metabolism during pregnancy.  相似文献

Bovine subcutaneous adipose tissue slices were incubated with 10 mM [U--14C] acetate in the absence and presence of 2 mM glucose, 10 mM lactate and 33 mU insulin/ml. The incorporation of acetate into fatty acids was stimulated significantly by glucose and lactate, but not by insulin. The concentration of glycolytic intermediates was measured in tissue slices incubated in vitro with the same substrate combinations. Glucose significantly increased the cellular content of glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate, but had no effect on any other glycolytic intermediate. Under certain conditions, acetate and lactate tended to decrease the monophosphorylated hexoses and increase certain triose phosphates, indicating increased flux through phosphofructokinase. Insulin generally had no effect on metabolite levels. The data indicate that phosphofructokinase has a key regulatory role in controlling glycolytic flux in bovine adipose tissue incubated in vitro. The data did not indicate regulatory roles for hexokinase or insulin.  相似文献

Glucocorticoids and the differentiation of porcine preadipocytes   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
The function of glucocorticoids in the differentiation of porcine preadipocytes was examined. Stromal-vascular cell cultures (containing preadipocytes) derived from adipose tissue of the perirenal, ham and shoulder regions of neonatal pigs were incubated in the presence of hydrocortisone at 0 to 100 ng/ml medium. Perirenal cells did not respond to hydrocortisone with an increase in enzyme expression, nor did they demonstrate growth characteristics similar to those of cultures derived from the ham or shoulder. Cultures from the shoulder and ham regions demonstrated dose-responsive increases in enzymatic expression to hydrocortisone. Enzymatic responses by cultures derived from the ham region were lower than responses by cultures from the shoulder region as measured by changes in the activities of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and lipoprotein lipase. Addition of insulin to the medium did not produce a synergistic effect with glucocorticoid on differentiation as determined by these enzymatic parameters. However, [14C]glucose metabolism by the cells in culture was synergistically increased by insulin and glucocorticoid supplementation of the medium. The ability of hydrocortisone to induce differentiation of porcine preadipocytes in vitro suggests that the changes that occur in plasma glucocorticoid concentrations during late gestation may play an important role in the rapid development of s.c. adipose tissue in the fetal pig. Secondly, the differences in culture characteristics and hormone responses of cells derived from different locations of adipose tissue formation indicate that differences may exist in the regulation of the growth and development of preadipocytes from different anatomical locations.  相似文献

Rates of adipose tissue lipid metabolism in vitro are often measured to evaluate the function in vivo of metabolic pathways and thus appraise the accretion or loss of depot fat. This study directly addressed the comparison of degradative metabolism in vitro and in vivo. The concentrations of plasma free-fatty-acids and blood-glycerol as putative representatives of lipolysis in vivo and the lipolytic rate in adipose tissue in vitro obtained at the time of blood sampling were both measured in the same pig. Concentrations of plasma free-fatty-acids and blood-glycerol were increased or decreased by infusion of the norepinephrine analog, isoproterenol or by infusion of the adrenergic antagonist, propranolol, respectively. Although lipolytic rates and sensitivity to isoproterenol in vitro changed during some acute hormonal manipulations of the pig, the modulation in vitro was usually small relative to the large changes observed in plasma free-fatty-acid and blood-glycerol concentrations. Some of the subtle changes in vitro may reflect biological responses to hormone infusion, e.g., desensitization of the response to adrenergic agonists, but the magnitude of rate changes in vitro negates prediction of the rates in vivo from rates in vitro. Extrapolation of lipolytic rates in vitro and several adipose tissue anabolic rates obtained from the literature indicate the improbability for prediction of rates and degree of fat accretion in pigs from metabolic rates in vitro.  相似文献

Backfat was obtained at slaughter from market weight hogs to study the acute effects of clenbuterol (CB), ractopamine (RAC) or epinephrine (EPI), in the presence and absence of theophylline (THEO) or adenosine deaminase (ADA), on rates of lipolysis and fatty acid synthesis in vitro. Only EPI increased lipolytic rate in the absence of THEO or ADA. In the presence of THEO or ADA, RAC and CB were lipolytic, although CB had a lower maximal response. With THEO present, RAC and EPI increased lipolysis with a similar potency and responsiveness. Lipolytic responses from all agonists were prevented by propranolol. Insulin stimulated glucose incorporation into fatty acids 50 to 100%; stimulated rates were not influenced by any agonist, either alone or in the presence of ADA. When THEO was present, EPI and RAC inhibited fatty acid synthesis approximately 50%. Clenbuterol was not inhibitory under any conditions. Results indicate that, under appropriate conditions, beta-adrenergic agents increase lipolysis and decrease lipogenesis in porcine adipocytes. Combined evidence suggests that lipolysis is more sensitive to beta-adrenergic stimulation than is insulin-stimulated lipogenesis. Finally, RAC and CB possess only partial agonist activity relative to EPI, CB being least active.  相似文献

This study was performed to determine whether or not uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) and UCP3 expression in porcine subcutaneous adipose tissue are hormonally regulated in vitro and whether their expression is correlated with changes in metabolic activity. Tissue slices (approximately 100 mg) were placed in 12-well plates containing 1 mL of DMEM/F12 with 25 mM Hepes, 0.5% BSA, pH 7.4. Triplicate slices were incubated with basal medium or hormone supplemented media at 37 °C with 95% air/5% CO2. Parallel cultures were maintained for either 2 or 24 h to evaluate metabolic viability of the tissue. Slices were transferred to test tubes containing 1 mL of DMEM/F12 with 25 mM Hepes, 3% BSA, 5.5 mM glucose, 1 μCi 14C-U-glucose/mL and incubated for an additional 2 h at 37 °C. Glucose metabolism in 2-h incubations did not differ from 24-h (chronic) incubations, indicating viability was maintained (P > 0.05). Expression of UCP2 and UCP3 was assessed in slices following 24 h of incubation with various combinations of hormones by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Expression of UCP2 was induced by leptin (100 ng/mL; P < 0.05). Growth hormone (100 ng/mL) inhibited UCP2 expression (P < 0.05). Expression of UCP3 was inhibited by growth hormone (100 ng/mL; P < 0.05), tri-iodothyronine (10 nM; P < 0.05) or leptin (100 ng/mL; P < 0.05). Changes in UCP expression could not be associated with overall changes in glucose metabolism by adipose tissue slices in chronic culture.  相似文献

In vitro lipolytic rate was determined in adipose tissue from genetically obese and lean pigs. There were about 20 pigs/genetic strain at 25 and 80 kg and 10 pigs/strain at 50 kg body weight. When expressed on a cellular basis, the in vitro adipose tissue basal (no exogenous hormone) lipolytic rate was similar in obese and lean pigs at 25 and 50 kg body weight. At 80 kg body weight the basal rate was greater in obese than in lean pigs. The in vitro adipose tissue epinephrine-stimulated lipolytic rate expressed on a cell basis was greater at 25 kg, was similar at 50 kg body weight and tended (P less than or equal to .1) to be greater at 80 kg in obese compared with lean pigs. The in vitro sensitivity of lipolysis to epinephrine was slightly greater in lean compared with obese pigs. The data obtained in vitro indicate that obese pigs do not have low adipose tissue lipolytic rates compared with lean pigs. Consequently, adipose tissue lipolysis does not appear to be a major metabolic factor leading to the excessive fat accretion in these obese pigs.  相似文献

Growing mice fed the beta 2-adrenergic agonist clenbuterol (CB; 20ppm) had increased rate of growth and altered composition of gain (greater protein and less fat). Adipocytes prepared from the epididymal fat pads of treated and untreated mice were used to examine the influence of CB on lipid metabolism. Using cells from untreated mice, CB stimulated lipolysis to an equivalent maximum rate as epinephrine (EPI), but CB was far less potent (EC50 (microM); CB = 5, EPI = 0.2). Both CB and EPI inhibited insulin-stimulated lipogenesis over the physiological range of insulin concentrations. This inhibition was expressed as a dose-dependent decrease in tissue sensitivity to insulin and a decrease in maximal lipogenic capacity. Inhibition of maximal rate, but not of insulin sensitivity, could be stimulated by the addition of palmitate without EPI or CB. Adipocytes isolated from CB-treated mice did not differ from controls in sensitivity to insulin or in activity of fatty acid synthetase. Increased lipolysis and reduced lipogenesis as observed in vitro with CB are consistent with reduced fat accretion in CB-treated mice. However, the absence of detectable changes in adipocyte lipogenesis from CB-fed mice leaves open the question of the relevance of altered lipid metabolism to the observed changes in body composition.  相似文献

Adipose tissue gene expression in obese dogs after weight loss   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Body weight (BW) mainly depends on a balance between fat storage (lipogenesis) and fat mobilization (lipolysis) in adipocytes. BW changes play a role in insulin resistance (IR), the inability of insulin target tissue to respond to physiological levels of insulin. This results in inhibition of lipogenesis and stimulation of lipolysis. Weight gain leads to IR whereas, weight loss improves insulin sensitivity (IS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of weight loss and recovery of IS on the expression of genes involved in lipogenesis and lipolysis in weight losing dogs. Gene expression was studied in both subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue. Obese dogs received a hypoenergetic low fat high protein diet (0.6 x NRC recommendation). Before and after weight loss, IS was assessed using the euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp. Gene expression of IRS-2, SREBP, intracellular insulin effectors, ACC, FAS, FABP, ADRP, PEPCK, lipogenesis key proteins, perilipin and HSL, lipolysis key proteins were quantified using real-time RT-PCR in subcutaneous and visceral fat. BW decreased from 15.2 +/- 0.5 to 11.4 +/- 0.4 kg (p < 0.05) over 78 +/- 8 days. When obese, dogs were insulin resistant. After weight loss, IS was improved. In the subcutaneous adipose tissue, the expression of only the IRS-2 was increased. In the visceral adipose tissue, the expression of the genes involved in the lipogenesis was decreased whereas one of the genes implied in the lipolysis did not change. The expression profile of genes involved in lipid metabolism, as measured after weight loss, is indicative for a lower lipogenesis after weight loss than in obese dogs. Our results also confirm dramatic differences in the lipid metabolism of visceral and subcutaneous fat. They should be completed by comparing gene expression during weight losing and normal weight steady state.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to compare the expression of adipose tissue mRNA related to glucose metabolism between Japanese Black steers (n = 5) and Holstein steers (n = 5). We examined the expression of the resistin, tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α), glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and growth hormone receptor (GHR) genes using real‐time polymerase chain reaction of cDNA in adipose tissue. The cDNA sequence identified by 5′/3′‐rapid amplification of cDNA and the deduced amino acid sequence were highly conserved in human, porcine and murine resistin. Expression of resistin mRNA was significantly greater in Holstein steers than in Japanese Black steers. In contrast, expression of TNF‐α mRNA was slightly greater in Japanese Black steers. Expression of GHR mRNA was significantly greater in Japanese Black steers compared with the Holstein steers, although there was no significant difference in the expression of GLUT1 mRNA. However, the plasma non‐esterified fatty acid (NEFA), glucose, insulin and growth hormone concentrations did not differ between Japanese Black and Holstein steers. The present results show that there is a difference in the expression level of mRNA related to glucose metabolism between Japanese Black steers and Holstein steers.  相似文献
