Heterogeneity in the physiological states and pharmacological responses of differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes
Increases in key components of adipogenesis and lipolysis pathways correlate at the population-averaged level during adipogenesis. However, differentiating preadipocytes are highly heterogeneous in cellular and lipid droplet (LD) morphologies, and the degree to which individual cells follow population-averaged trends is unclear. In this study, we analyze the molecular heterogeneity of different...
متن کاملInsulin receptor synthesis and turnover in differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes.
3T3-L1 "preadipocytes" can be induced to differentiate in culture into cells having the morphological and biochemical characteristics of adipocytes. The binding of 125I-insulin to the cell-surface of differentiated and undifferentiated 3T3-L1 cells and nondifferentiating 3T3-C2 cells was compared. In the absence of agents which induce adipocyte conversion, ie, insulin or insulin plus methylisob...
متن کاملCapsaicin Induces “Brite” Phenotype in Differentiating 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes
OBJECTIVE Targeting the energy storing white adipose tissue (WAT) by pharmacological and dietary means in order to promote its conversion to energy expending "brite" cell type holds promise as an anti-obesity approach. Present study was designed to investigate/revisit the effect of capsaicin on adipogenic differentiation with special reference to induction of "brite" phenotype during differenti...
متن کاملOrganelle relationships in cultured 3T3-L1 preadipocytes
In differentiating 3T3-L1 cells, lipid spheres, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), microperoxisomes, and mitochondria form "constellations" that may reflect the interplay of lipid metabolizing enzymes in these organelles. ER cisternae are also situated very close to "rosettes,"plasmalemmal specializations found in mature adipocytes in vivo. As in hepatocytes and absorptive cells of the intestine, ...
متن کاملheterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...
