We tested the hypothesis that leptin, in addition to reducing body fat by restraining food intake, reduces body fat through a peripheral mechanism requiring uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). Leptin was administered to wild-type (WT) mice and mice with a targeted disruption of the UCP1 gene (UCP1 deficient), while vehicle-injected control animals of each genotype were pair-fed to each leptin-treated ...
Thermogenic activity in brown adipose tissue (BAT) decreases during lactation; the down-regulation of the gene encoding uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is involved in this process. Our studies show that UCP2 mRNA expression does not change during the breeding cycle in mice. In contrast, UCP3 mRNA is down-regulated in lactation but it recovers after weaning, in parallel with UCP1 mRNA. This leads to...
Expression of brown adipose tissue (BAT) associated proteins like uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in inguinal WAT (iWAT) has been suggested to alter iWAT metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in exercise training and cold exposure-induced iWAT UCP1 expression. The effect of daily intraperitoneal injections of IL-6 (3 ng/g) in C57BL/6 mice for 7 days o...
We recently reported that the leptin-induced increase in uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) mRNA in brown adipose tissue (BAT) is prevented by the denervation of BAT. We also reported that retinoic acid (RA) increases UCP1 mRNA in BAT. To extend these finding to UCP2 and UCP3 in BAT, we examined UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA after unilateral denervation of BAT, as well as after leptin, beta(3)-adrenergic agonist...
Recently, it has been demonstrated that uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1)-expressing white adipocytes (brown-like adipocytes) are important for energy expenditure in white adipose tissue (WAT), in which energy expenditure decreases under obese conditions. However, the relationship between the induction of brown-like adipocytes and the decrease in energy expenditure in obese WAT remains to be elucidat...
Norepinephrine Is Required for Leptin Effects on Gene Expression in Brown and White Adipose Tissue1.
Exogenous leptin enhances energy utilization in ob/ob mice by binding its hypothalamic receptor and selectively increasing peripheral fat oxidation. Leptin also increases uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) expression in brown adipose tissue (BAT), but the neurotransmitter that mediates this effect has not been established. The present experiments sought to determine whether leptin regulates UCP1 expre...
Brown and beige adipocytes dissipate energy by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1)-dependent UCP1-independent thermogenesis, which may be utilized to develop treatments against obesity. We have found that mRNA expression of the alanine/serine/cysteine transporter-1 (ASC-1) was induced during adipocyte differentiation human brown-prone deep neck beige-competent subcutaneous progenitors, SGBS preadipocyt...
To identify novel regulatory factors controlling induction of the brown adipocyte-specific mitochondrial uncoupling protein (Ucp1) mRNA in the retroperitoneal white fat depot, we previously mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that control this trait to chromosomes 2, 3, 8, and 19. Since the peroxisome proliferator activator receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1alpha) regulates Ucp1 and oth...
We previously demonstrated that leptin increases uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene expression in brown adipose tissue (BAT) of rats. To determine whether the induction of these transcripts is dependent on sympathetic innervation of BAT, we unilaterally surgically denervated interscapular BAT in both pair-fed and leptin (0.9 mg/day by infusion)-treated rats. In pair-f...
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis increases when uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1) is activated adrenergically and requires T3. In humans, UCP1 activation in BAT seems involved in body weight maintenance. BAT type 2 deiodinase (D2) increases in response to adrenergic agents, producing the T3 required for UCP1 expression. T3 actions are mediated by thyroid hormone nuclear T3 receptors (TR), TRα...
