Tissue-specific autoregulation of the LXRalpha gene facilitates induction of apoE in mouse adipose tissue.
The functions of the liver X receptors (LXRs) are not well documented in adipose tissue. We demonstrate here that expression of the LXRalpha gene is highly induced in vivo and in vitro in mouse and human adipocytes in the presence of the synthetic LXR agonist T0901317. This autoregulation is caused by an identified LXR-responsive element motif in the mouse LXRalpha promoter, which is conserved ...
متن کاملEpigenetic Regulation of Depot-Specific Gene Expression in Adipose Tissue
In humans, adipose tissue is distributed in subcutaneous abdominal and subcutaneous gluteal depots that comprise a variety of functional differences. Whereas energy storage in gluteal adipose tissue has been shown to mediate a protective effect, an increase of abdominal adipose tissue is associated with metabolic disorders. However, the molecular basis of depot-specific characteristics is not c...
متن کاملAdipose tissue in muscle: a novel depot similar in size to visceral adipose tissue.
BACKGROUND The manner in which fat depot volumes and distributions, particularly the adipose tissue (AT) between the muscles, vary by race is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective was to quantify a previously unstudied and novel intermuscular AT (IMAT) depot and subcutaneous AT, visceral AT (VAT), and total-body skeletal muscle mass in healthy sedentary African American (AA), Asian, and white adul...
متن کاملAbdominal Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue: A Protective Fat Depot?
OBJECTIVE Obesity is associated with increased metabolic and cardiovascular risk. The ectopic fat hypothesis suggests that subcutaneous fat may be protective, but this theory has yet to be fully explored. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Participants from the Framingham Heart Study (n = 3,001, 48.5% women) were stratified by visceral adipose tissue (VAT) into sex-specific tertiles. Within these te...
متن کاملChoosing an adipose tissue depot for sampling: factors in selection and depot specificity.
The importance and the role of adipose tissues are now largely expanded not only because the very high occurrence of obesity but also because the emerging view that adipose tissue could be a reservoir of therapeutic cells. A critical examination of the adipose tissue features according to their location shows that sampling is not as easy as previously thought and needs special attention to hete...
