Insulin and Cortisol Promote Leptin Production in Cultured Human Fat Cells

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the regulation of leptin expression and production in cultured human adipocytes using the model of in vitro differentiated human adipocytes. Freshly isolated human preadipocytes did not exhibit significant leptin mRNA and protein levels as assessed by reverse transcriptase (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and radioimmunoassay (RIA). However, during differentiation induced by a defined adipogenic serum-free medium, cellular leptin mRNA and leptin protein released into the medium increased considerably in accordance with the cellular lipid accumulation. In fully differentiated human fat cells, insulin provoked a dose-dependent rise in leptin protein. Cortisol at a near physiological concentration of 10−8 mol/l was found to potentiate this insulin effect by almost threefold. Removal of insulin and cortisol, respectively, was followed by a rapid decrease in leptin expression, which was reversible after readdition of the hormones. These results clearly indicate that both insulin and cortisol are potent and possibly physiological regulators of leptin expression in human adipose tissue.

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.
