چکیده

The ob gene product is known to control food intake and energy expenditure. To determine whether thermogenic agents directly control ob gene expression, the effects of beta-adrenoceptor agonists on the level of the ob gene messenger RNA (mRNA) and on leptin secretion have been studied in mouse brown adipocytes differentiated in culture. These cells highly expressed the beta 3-adrenoceptor, the uncoupling protein, and the ob gene mRNAs. The ob gene was expressed in mouse brown adipocytes earlier than in mouse white adipocytes under the same culture conditions and to a similar level. The beta 3-, beta L-, and beta 2-adrenoceptor agonists BRL 37344, dobutamine, and terbutaline inhibited ob gene expression in mouse brown adipocytes differentiated in culture with EC50 values of 0.3, 1.0, and 85 nM, respectively. Leptin secretion by the cells under basal conditions was 78 +/- 10 pg/microgram DNA-4 h and was decreased by exposure to the beta-adrenoceptor agonists. The ob gene mRNA half-life was 9.4 h and was decreased to 2.4 h by 1 nM BRL 37344, indicating that the inhibitory effect of the beta 3-agonist might be due to destabilization of ob gene mRNA. (Bu)2cAMP (10-100 microM) and forskolin (20 microM) mimicked the effect of the beta-adrenoceptor agonists. FFA (150-800 microM) had only a small inhibitory effect on ob gene mRNA expression. The results suggest the existence in brown adipose tissue of a retroregulatory pathway by which leptin production in inhibited when the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated.

Effects of dopamine on leptin release and leptin gene (OB) expression in adipocytes from obese and hypertensive patients

BACKGROUND A reduction of dopaminergic (DAergic) activity with increased prolactin levels has been found in obese and hypertensive patients, suggesting its involvement as a pathophysiological mechanism promoting hypertension. Similarly, leptin action increasing sympathetic activity has been proposed to be involved in mechanisms of hypertension. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects o...

Regulation of ob gene expression: evidence for epinephrine-induced suppression in human obesity.

Leptin acts as satiety factor and increases energy expenditure. Studies conducted on animals and in vitro on adipocytes culture have shown that infusion of catecholamines leads to a significant reduction of ob gene expression; it appears of interest to evaluate the in vivo effects of adrenergic activation on the expression of the ob gene in humans. We studied ob gene expression in adipose tissu...

SUPPRESSION OF VLDL-TRIACYLGLYCEROL SECRETION B Y BOTH α AND β-ADRENOCEPTOR AGONISTS IN ISOLATED RAT HEPATOCYTES

The effects of alpha and beta-adrenergic stimulation on triacylglycerol secretion were investigated in isolated rat hepatocytes. Epinephrine within 3h of incubation suppressed triacylglycerol secretion by 35% and increased its cellular content by 18%. The inhibitory effect of epinephrine was abolished by inclusion of phentolamine and also prazosin but not with propranolol. Trifluoperazine c...

Leptin suppression of insulin secretion and gene expression in human pancreatic islets: implications for the development of adipogenic diabetes mellitus.

Previously we demonstrated the expression of the long form of the leptin receptor in rodent pancreatic beta-cells and an inhibition of insulin secretion by leptin via activation of ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Here we examine pancreatic islets isolated from pancreata of human donors for their responses to leptin. The presence of leptin receptors on islet beta-cells was demonstrated by doub...

Differentiation of human adipocytes at physiological oxygen levels results in increased adiponectin secretion and isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis

Adipose tissue (AT) hypoxia occurs in obese humans and mice. Acute hypoxia in adipocytes causes dysregulation of adipokine secretion with an increase in inflammatory factors and diminished adiponectin release. O2 levels in humans range between 3 and 11% revealing that conventional in vitro culturing at ambient air and acute hypoxia treatment (1% O2) are performed under non-physiological conditi...
