ABSTRACT
3T3-L1 adipocytes were cultured with various concentrations of high-density lipoprotein ( HDL, 0, 10, 50, and 100 μg/ml ) for 16 h and with lipopolysaccharide ( LPS, 100 ng/ml ) for another 6 h. Interleukin-8 in the medium was determined by ELISA, and PPAR-γ mRNA expression by reverse transacription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Interleukin-8 levels were increased in LPS-treated cells ( P＜0.05 ), but decreased in HDL-treated cells in the dose-dependent manner. PPARγ mRNA expressions were increased in HDL-treated groups than those treated only with LPS. These results suggested HDL may decrease interleukin-8 secretion via up-regulating PPARγ expression in adipocytes.
ABSTRACT
Aim To explore the effect of high density lipoprotein and apolipoprotein A-I mimetic peptide on the secretion and the expression of adiponectin in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes in inflammatory status and the possible mechanism.Methods Fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were incubated in the medium containing various concentrations of high density lipoprotein(10~100 mg?L-1) and apolipoprotein A-I mimetic peptide(1~50 mg?L-1)with 100 ?g?L-1 lipopolysaccharide(n=3).Evaluate the levels of adiponectin in supernatant,the mRNA expression of adiponectin and PPAR?,and the activity of NF-?B.Results During LPS stimulation adiponectin concentrations in supernatant decreased from 0.25?0.03 ?g?L-1 to 0.14?0.02 ?g?L-1(P
