Effect of globular domain of adiponectin on glucose metabolism and insulin signal transduction in insulin resistant model adipocytes / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Insulin resistance model of 3T3-L1 adipocytes were prepared with plamotic acid.Adipocytes with generated insulin resistance were cultured with different concentrations of globular domain of adiponectin(gAd250,500,1 000 ng/ml).The cell culture medium glucose content was detected with the glucose oxidase method,the mRNA expressions of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1),phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase(PI3K),and protein kinase B(PKB) were detected with real-time quantitative PCR method.The phosphorylation of IRS-1 was detected by Western blot.Compared with the control group,the experimental group showed significantly increased glucose consumption (P ＜ 0.01),and with the increasing gAd concentration,glucose consumption was gradually increasing.IRS-1 phosphorylation was increased gradually with the increasing concentration of gAd.These results suggest that gAd can promote glucose uptake by 3T3-L1 adipocyte model with generated insulin resistance.This may be correlated with promoting insulin signal transduction and improving insulin resistance in adipocytes.
