Differential Modulation of 3T3-L1 Adipogenesis Mediated by 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase-1 Levels

Abstract: The localized activation of circulating glucocorticoids in vivo by the enzyme 11␤-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11␤-HSD1) plays a critical role in the development of the metabolic syndrome. However, the precise contribution of 11␤-HSD1 in the initiation of adipogenesis by inactive glucocorticoids is not fully understood. 3T3-L1 fibroblasts can be terminally differentiated to mature adipocytes in a glucocorticoid-dependent manner. Both inactive rodent dehydrocorticosterone and human cortisone were able t… Show more

“…Alternatively, the overexpressed HSD11B1 might not be properly targeted to the inner face of the ER membrane but directly or indirectly -in ER-derived bodies resulting from an ER overloading/stress -to the cytosol, where it works as a dehydrogenase (Odermatt et al 1999). A study in 3T3-L1 cells, whose HSD11B1 has been silenced by short hairpin RNA constructs (Kim et al 2007), is in line with the aforementioned hypothesis. These authors observed that the re-expression of HSD11B1 at relatively low levels restores the dehydrocorticosterone-induced differentiation, a process that requires the HSD11B1-dependent reductase activity.…”

“…Transcription of 11β-HSD1 in preadipocytes has been shown to be enhanced by glucocorticoids [10,11] and CCAAT enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBP) α and β, transcription factors which play crucial roles in directing the differentiation process [12]. When 11β-HSD1 levels in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts were reduced by RNA interference, differentiation by inactive glucocorticoids was prevented and the expression of adipocyte-specific proteins such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ and C/EBP α was eventually reduced [13]. Taken together, these data suggest that the expression and activity of 11β-HSD1 may increase in an autocrine and/or paracrine manner during the process of adipogenesis, and that the biological importance of an increase in 11β-HSD1 activity during adipogenesis may be to bring about the differentiation of preadipocytes and initiate adipogenesis in the preadipocytes around them.…”

“…It has been demonstrated that the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes can be induced by both active and inactive glucocorticoids, such as dexamethasone, Acta Pharmacologica Sinica npg corticosterone and 11-DHC, and endogenous 11β-HSD1 oxoreductase activity was expected to be required for differentiation induced by 11-DHC, an inactive glucocorticoid [25] . Thus, we examined the effect of emodin on the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes induced by dexamethasone, corticosterone and 11-DHC.…”
