Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase 1 Increases Lipolysis, UCP1 Protein Expression and Mitochondrial Activity in Brown Adipocytes
The discovery of active brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adult humans and the fact that it is reduced in obese and diabetic patients have put a spotlight on this tissue as a key player in obesity-induced metabolic disorders. BAT regulates energy expenditure through thermogenesis; therefore, harnessing its thermogenic fat-burning power is an attractive therapeutic approach. We aimed to enhance BAT ...
متن کاملNorepinephrine and rosiglitazone synergistically induce Elovl3 expression in brown adipocytes.
The Elovl3 gene, which putatively encodes for a protein involved in the elongation of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids in the C20-C24 range, is expressed in murine liver, skin, and brown adipose tissue (BAT). In BAT, Elovl3 is dramatically upregulated during tissue activation in response to cold exposure, and functional data imply that ELOVL3 is a critical enzyme for lipid accumulation...
متن کاملInflammation Downregulates UCP1 Expression in Brown Adipocytes Potentially via SIRT1 and DBC1 Interaction
Brown adipose tissue thermogenesis at the cost of energy is not only important for the development of obesity, but also possesses great promise in anti-obesity treatment. Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression has been reported to be under control of the intracellular deacetylase SIRT1. Here, we investigated the effect and mechanism of inflammation and sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) activation on the induct...
متن کاملDifferences in the response of UCP1 mRNA to hormonal stimulation between rat and mouse primary cultures of brown adipocytes.
UNLABELLED Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1), the specific marker of brown adipose tissue, is transcriptionally activated in response to adrenergic stimuli and thyroid hormones are necessary for its full expression. We describe differences in the regulation of UCP-1 mRNA expression between rat and mouse brown adipocytes in culture, using norepinephrine (NE), triiodothyronine (T3), insulin and retino...
متن کاملGrowth factor regulation of uncoupling protein-1 mRNA expression in brown adipocytes.
To study the effect of the mitogens epidermal growth factor (EGF), acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (aFGF and bFGF), and vasopressin on brown adipocyte differentiation, we analyzed the expression of uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) mRNA. Quiescent brown preadipocytes express high levels of UCP-1 mRNA in response to triiodothyronine (T3) and norepinephrine (NE). The addition of serum or th...
