Regulation of ob gene mRNA levels in cultured adipocytes

Rentsch, Juerg, Chiesi, Michele·1996·FEBS Letters

Abstract

mRNA levels of the ob gene product, leptin, were investigated by quantitative competitive RT‐PCR in a mouse cell line (3T3‐L1) which can be induced to differentiate into adipocytes. During conversion to fat cells, the level of leptin mRNA increased several‐fold and in parallel to that for typical adipocyte markers like lipoprotein lipase, adipsin and glycerophosphate dehydrogenase. Leptin transcription, however, did not correlate with the size of the adipocytes measured as total triglycerides. On the other hand, mRNA levels for leptin in fully differentiated adipocytes were increased 2–3 fold by insulin. In contrast, free fatty acids exerted a concentration‐dependent inhibition of leptin transcription while the corticosteroid dexamethasone and an elevation of intracellular cAMP displayed only marginal inhibitory effects on leptin mRNA levels.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
