Growth hormone directly alters glucose utilization in 3T3 adipocytes.

چکیده

3T3-F442A adipocytes incubated in the presence of growth hormone (GH) showed a transient stimulation of the incorporation of [14C]glucose into cellular lipids, or production of 14CO2 in the first 4 hr. By 48 hr, a significant suppression of glucose metabolism was evident, and persisted for 7 days. Both effects resulted from direct in vitro addition of GH to 3T3 adipocytes. This system therefore provides the first appropriate cellular model for examination of both the characteristic acute stimulatory and delayed suppressive actions of GH on glucose metabolism.

The STAT5A-mediated induction of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 expression by prolactin or growth hormone in adipocytes.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK)4 was expressed in adipocytes and whether PDK4 expression was hormonally regulated in fat cells. Both Northern blot and Western blot analyses were conducted on samples isolated from 3T3-L1 adipocytes after various treatments with prolactin (PRL), growth hormone (GH), and/or insulin. Transfection of PDK4 promot...

Growth hormone alters lipolysis and hormone-sensitive lipase activity in 3T3-F442A adipocytes.

While growth hormone (GH) has long been known as a lipolytic hormone, it has been difficult to study the cellular mechanisms for this effect. Since cultured 3T3-F442A adipocytes have recently proven to be useful to study chronic effects of GH on adipocyte metabolism, we examined the effects of GH on lipolysis. In these cells, GH alone produced a dose-dependent increase in the release of glycero...

The mitogenic and antiapoptotic actions of ghrelin in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Ghrelin, a stomach-derived hormone, induces adiposity when administered to rodents. Because ghrelin receptor is abundantly expressed in adipose tissue, we investigated the role of ghrelin in adipocyte biology. We observed ghrelin receptor expression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes. Treatment of preadipocytes with ghrelin induced cellular proliferation and differentiation to mature adipoc...

Effects of inorganic HgCl2 on adipogenesis.

Mercury is a common pollutant that alters glucose metabolism in adipocytes; however, the effect of HgCl2 on differentiating adipocytes and their subsequent metabolic function is not well understood. Two adipocyte models, the 3T3-L1 and C3H10T1/2 (10T1/2) cell lines, were differentiated in the presence of HgCl2. To assess the amount of differentiation in a population, markers of differentiation ...

Sulforaphane induces adipocyte browning and promotes glucose and lipid utilization

SCOPE Obesity is closely related to the imbalance of white adipose tissue storing excess calories, and brown adipose tissue dissipating energy to produce heat in mammals. Recent studies revealed that acquisition of brown characteristics by white adipocytes, termed "browning," may positively contribute to cellular bioenergetics and metabolism homeostasis. The goal was to investigate the putative...
