Enhanced Leptin-Stimulated Pi3k Activation in the CNS Promotes White Adipose Tissue Transdifferentiation
Open accessAbstract
The contribution of different leptin-induced signaling pathways in control of energy homeostasis is only partly understood. Here we show that selective Pten ablation in leptin-sensitive neurons (Pten(DeltaObRb)) results in enhanced Pi3k activation in these cells and reduces adiposity by increasing energy expenditure. White adipose tissue (WAT) of Pten(DeltaObRb) mice shows characteristics of brown adipose tissue (BAT), reflected by increased mitochondrial content and Ucp1 expression resulting from enhanced leptin-stimulated sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in WAT. In contrast, leptin-deficient ob/ob-Pten(DeltaObRb) mice exhibit unaltered body weight and WAT morphology compared to ob/ob mice, pointing to a pivotal role of endogenous leptin in control of WAT transdifferentiation. Leanness of Pten(DeltaObRb) mice is accompanied by enhanced sensitivity to insulin in skeletal muscle. These data provide direct genetic evidence that leptin-stimulated Pi3k signaling in the CNS regulates energy expenditure via activation of SNA to perigonadal WAT leading to BAT-like differentiation of WAT.

Selective PTEN ablation in leptin-expressing neurons results in reduced adiposity and increased energy expenditure due at least in part to increased fatty acid oxidation in white adipose tissue.
“Selective PTEN ablation in leptin-expressing neurons results in a phenotype characterized by reduced adiposity and increased energy expenditure due, at least in part, to increased fatty acid oxidation in WAT (144)”
From Leptin and the Central Nervous System Control of Glucose Metabolism (2011) · cites this paper as [144]
Selective PTEN ablation in leptin-expressing neurons is associated with increased sympathetic nerve activity to white adipose tissue and leads to remodeling of white adipose tissue toward brown adipose tissue characteristics, including increased mitochondrial content and UCP1 expression.
“associated with increased sympathetic nerve activity to WAT and leading to a remodeling of WAT to take on characteristics of BAT, including increased mitochondrial content and UCP1 expression (144).”

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.
