Expression of adiponectin receptors and effects of adiponectin isoforms in mouse preimplantation embryos.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Adiponectin, a pleiotropic hormone secreted from adipose tissue, can mediate some negative effects of obesity on female health, and can participate in the impaired reproductive performance of obese women. Using a mouse model, we investigated expression of adiponectin receptors in ovulated oocytes and in vivo derived preimplantation embryos, and tested effects of different adiponectin isoforms on development of preimplantation embryos in vitro. METHODS AND RESULTS Using RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry, we found expression of adiponectin receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, at the mRNA and protein level, in mouse ovulated oocytes and preimplantation embryos. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis showed a decrease in the amount of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 mRNA after fertilization, which was followed by an increase in mRNA at the morula and blastocyst stage; mRNA for adiponectin was detected only at the blastocyst stage. Administration of full-length adiponectin significantly changed the distribution in numbers of cells of cultured preimplantation embryos, increasing the proportion of embryos with high cell numbers (>128 cells) and decreasing the proportion of embryos with lower cell numbers (<65 cells). Blastocysts possessed significantly higher cell numbers after full-length adiponectin treatment. Mutated trimeric adiponectin had the opposite effect, a significant decrease in the proportion of embryos with higher cell numbers (>96 cells) and increase in the proportion of embryos with lower cell numbers (<65 cells). Trimeric adiponectin also significantly decreased the cell number and increased cell death in blastocysts. Truncated globular adiponectin had no significant effect on development of mouse preimplantation embryos. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that adiponectin can directly influence the development of the preimplantation embryo, and the effects are isoform dependent.

BACKGROUND Adiponectin (Adipoq), a protein secreted by adipocytes in inverse proportion to the adipose mass present, modulates energy homeostasis and increases insulin sensitivity. Tissue Adipoq signaling decreases in settings of maternal diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis, conditions which are associated with reproductive difficulty. Our objective was to define the ex...
متن کاملO-13: Gene Expression Pattern of Adiponectin and Adiponectin Receptors in Bovine Dominant and Non-Dominant Follicles
Background: Recent studies have revealed that adiponectin, a novel adipocytokine, and its two receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) are involved in regulation of ovarian function in various farm animal species. The aim of this study was to investigate the gene expression pattern of Adiponectin and its receptors in ovarian cells of dominant (DFs) and non- dominant follicles (NDFs) in the bovine. Mater...

متن کاملCorrelation of Adiponectin mRNA Abundance and Its Receptors with Quantitative Parameters of Sperm Motility in Rams
Objective Adiponectin and its receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2), known as adiponectin system, have some proven roles in the fat and glucose metabolisms. Several studies have shown that adiponectin can be considered as a candidate in linking metabolism to testicular function. In this regard, we evaluated the correlation between sperm mRNA abundance of adiponectin and its receptors, with sperm moti...
