Melatonin promotes triacylglycerol accumulation via MT2 receptor during differentiation in bovine intramuscular preadipocytes
Open accessAbstract
Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a derivative of tryptophan which is produced and secreted mainly by the pineal gland and regulates a variety of important central and peripheral actions. To examine the potential effects of melatonin on the proliferation and differentiation of bovine intramuscular preadipocytes (BIPs), BIPs were incubated with different concentrations of melatonin. Melatonin supplementation at 1 mM significantly increased peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) β, and C/EBPα expression and promoted the differentiation of BIPs into adipocytes with large lipid droplets and high cellular triacylglycerol (TAG) levels. Melatonin also significantly enhanced lipolysis and up-regulated the expression of lipolytic genes and proteins, including hormone sensitive lipase (HSL), adipocyte triglyceride lipase (ATGL), and perilipin 1 (PLIN1). Moreover, melatonin reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels by increasing the expression levels and activities of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Finally, the positive effects of melatonin on adipogenesis, lipolysis, and redox status were reversed by treatment with luzindole, anantagonist of nonspecific melatonin receptors 1 (MT1) and 2 (MT2), and 4-phenyl-2-propionamidotetraline (4P-PDOT), a selective MT2 antagonist. These results reveal that melatonin promotes TAG accumulation via MT2 receptor during differentiation in BIPs.

The Introduction (page unavailable) says melatonin regulates actions related to circadian rhythms and neuroendocrine function, and reports roles in energy metabolism regulation. It does not address immunity, so the citation does not support that part of the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
