Coordinated regulation of fat-specific and liver-specific glycerol channels, aquaporin adipose and aquaporin 9.
Plasma glycerol is a major substrate for hepatic gluconeogenesis. Aquaporin adipose (AQPap/7), an adipose-specific glycerol channel, provides fat-derived glycerol into plasma. In the present study, we cloned the coding and promoter regions of mouse aquaporin 9 (AQP9), a liver-specific glycerol channel. Fasting and refeeding of mice increased and decreased hepatic AQP9 mRNA levels, respectively....
متن کاملGene manipulation of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells by miR-34a
Background: Safe and effective gene therapy is considered as one of the therapeutic goals in many diseases. Due to the important role of stem cells in cell therapy, this study aimed to produce human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs) using the miR-34a overexpression. Materials and methods: The hsa-mir-34a precursor sequence was cloned into the PCDH lentiviral vector. The recombinant...
متن کاملGene expression in human brown adipose tissue.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has profound effects on body weight and metabolism in rodents. Recent reports show that human adults have significant amounts of BAT. Our aim was to study the gene expression profile of human BAT. Biopsies of adipose tissue with brown-red color and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (WAT) were obtained from 24 patients undergoing surgery in the thyroid region. Intrasca...
متن کاملGene expression profile of omental adipose tissue in human obesity.
The aim of the present study was to gain insight into the pathophysiology of obesity by comparing the pattern of gene expression of omental adipose tissue of obese and lean volunteers using DNA microarrays. Omental adipose tissue biopsies were obtained by laparoscopic surgery from six male patients (44.2+/-6.3 yr). RNA was extracted and pooled for the obese (BMI: 37.3+/-2.5 kg/m2) and lean (BMI...
متن کاملHuman Adipose-Derived Stem/Stromal Cells from Children or Adults?
Discovering a cell type with the highest efficiency and the least side-effects is one of the priorities of scientists active in this field. Of all the cells, mesenchymal stem cells have been and still are of interest to the researchers for use in pre-clinical and clinical studies due to being easily accessible, pluripotency, secretion of numerous growth factors, low risk of immunological reject...
