Change of transcriptional factors PPAR?, C/EBP?, C/EBP? mRNA expressions during differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocyte induced by acylation stimulating protein / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM: To study the expression of three kinds of transcriptional factors PPAR?, C/EBP? and C/EBP ?mRNA during differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes induced by acylation stimulating protein. METHODS: There were three groups in the study divided by the difference differentiation inducer (1) control group incubating the cells without any inducer; (2) IBMX+DEX group incubating the cells with IBMX and DEX; (3) ASP group incubating the cells with ASP, IBMX and DEX. The insulin of the typical hormone cocktail method was taken place by ASP. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were induced to differentiate by 50 mg/L ASP+0.5 mol/L IBMX+1.0 ?mol/L DEX. The cells were harvested on the first day, second day,4th day, 6th day and 8th day after differentiation, then the total RNA of these cells were abstracted. The transcription factors PPAR?, C/EBP?, and C/EBP? mRNA expressions were assayed by RT-PCR. RESULTS: (1) During the differentiation induced by ASP group, PPAR? mRNA expression in the 3T3-L1 cells were very low on the first day after inducing differentiation. The expression was increased lightly on the second and 4th day after inducing differentiation, and it was kept on the high level on the 6th and 8th day after induction. The C/EBP? mRNA was expressed at low level on the first day after inducing differentiation. It was increased significantly on the second day and decreased significantly on the 4th day after induction. C/EBP? mRNA was not be detected on the 6th and 8th day after induction. The expression of C/EBP? mRNA was low on the first day after inducing differentiation. It was increased on the second and 4th day after induction and it was kept on high level on the 6th and 8th day after induction. (2) During the differentiation induced by IBMX+DEX group, PPAR?, C/EBP? and C/EBP? mRNA expressions were increased at the beginning of differentiation, but the levels of expression were lower than those in ASP group. CONCLUSION: The sequential expression of these transcription factors induced by ASP may be the important mechanism for the role of ASP to induce the preadipocytes to differentiate.
