Regulation of adiponectin receptors in hepatocytes by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ agonist rosiglitazone

Abstract: Aims/hypothesis: Adiponectin is an adipocytederived hormone that plays a critical role in the development of type 2 diabetes via interaction with adiponectin receptors 1 (ADIPOR1) and 2 (ADIPOR2). Rosiglitazone is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARG) agonist that is widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. We hypothesised that rosiglitazone regulates lipid and glucose metabolism through modulation of the expression of adiponectin receptors in the liver. Methods: The expression of ADIP… Show more

“…Such treatment induced profound adipogenic transformation of the gene expression pattern in hepatocytes. Rosiglitazone has been shown to increase the mRNA and protein levels of ADIPOR2 in HepG2 cells (47), but expression of both ADIPOR1 and ADIPOR2 were unchanged in the present study. It may seem paradoxical that PPAR␥ agonists markedly lower liver fat content in humans (48), although PPAR␥2 is overexpressed in the human fatty liver.…”

“…Furthermore, distinct regulation of ADIPOR1/2 has been recently shown in that rosiglitazone enhanced transcription from the ADIPOR2, but not ADIPOR1 promoter in HepG2 cells through an interaction with a glucocorticoid receptor (GR) element. 49 In conclusion, our studies show enhanced hepatic ADIPOR1 and ADIPOR2 mRNA expression in insulin-resistant obese humans and suggest differential regulation of ADIPOR1/2 by FOXO1. Although mainly descriptive in nature, these data may add to previous knowledge obtained from studies in cell lines and animals and help to understand the regulation of adiponectin receptors in humans.…”
