Metabolic and cellular plasticity in white adipose tissue I: effects of β3-adrenergic receptor activation

Granneman, James G., Li, Pipeng, Zhu, Zhengxian, Lu, Yuyan·2005·American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism

Abstract

Selective agonists of β 3-adrenergic receptors (Adrb3) exhibit potent anti-diabetes properties in rodent models when given chronically, yet the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. A salient feature of chronic Adrb3 activation is pronounced remodeling of white adipose tissue (WAT), which includes mitochondrial biogenesis and elevation of metabolic rate. To gain insights into potential mechanisms underlying WAT remodeling, the time course of remodeling induced by the Adrb3 agonist CL-316,243 (CL) was analyzed using histological, physiological, and global gene profiling approaches. The results indicate that continuous CL treatment induced a transient proinflammatory response that was followed by cellular proliferation among stromal cells and multilocular adipoctyes. CL treatment strongly fragmented the central lipid storage droplet of mature adipocytes and induced mitochondrial biogenesis within these cells. Mitochondrial biogenesis was correlated with the upregulation of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial electron transport activity. The elevated catabolic activity of WAT was temporally correlated with upregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α and its target genes, suggesting involvement of this transcription factor in coordinating the gene program that elevates WAT catabolic activity.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Acute weight loss is unexpectedly associated with a rapid, albeit transient, lipolytic-driven recruitment of macrophages into adipose tissue.

    “Recently, Kosteli and colleagues demonstrated that acute weight loss is unexpectedly associated with a rapid -albeit transient -lipolytic-driven recruitment of macrophages into AT (39), thereby confirming similar reports by Granneman and colleagues (44).”

  • Mitochondrial levels in white adipocytes are also increased in response to adrenergic stimulation, β-3 agonists, and CB1 blockade in mice, again in parallel with enhanced insulin sensitivity.

    “Mitochondrial levels in white adipocytes are also increased in response to adrenergic stimulation, ␤-3 agonists, and CB1 blockade in mice (195,199,200), again in parallel with enhanced insulin sensitivity.”

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.
