Sustained peripheral expression of transgene adiponectin offsets the development of diet-induced obesity in rats

Abstract: Adiponectin (Acrp30) is a physiologically active polypeptide hormone secreted by adipose tissue that shows insulin-sensitizing, antiinflammatory, and antiatherogenic properties. In humans, Acrp30 levels are inversely related to the degree of adiposity. In the current study, we tested the long-term weight-reducing and insulin-enhancing effects of

“…Stimulation of fatty acid oxidation by adiponectin occurs through activation of AMPK, diminished ACC activity, and reduction of malonyl CoA content in the liver. [16][17][18] The phosphorylation of Thr172 in the ␣ subunit of AMPK is essential for AMPK activity, and the phosphorylation of ACC at Ser79 by AMPK is associated with reduced activity. 12 To determine whether the changes in serum adiponectin concentrations resulted in altered activities of AMPK and ACC in the livers of ethanol-fed mice, the phosphorylation states of AMPK-␣ and ACC were analyzed.…”

“…[12][13][14][15] These molecules are the major mediators of the metabolic effect of adiponectin. 16,17 Adiponectin is exclusively expressed and secreted from adipose tissue. Circulating adiponectin concentrations account for approximately 0.01% of total plasma protein.…”

“…Peripheral adiponectin treatment decreases body fat by enhancing energy expenditure and fatty acid oxidation (76). Chronic adiponectin treatment reduces food intake, weight, glucose, and lipids in obese rats (77). Moreover, adiponectin and leptin are inversely related to seasonal changes in WAT mass and adipocyte lipid content in mammalian hibernators (78).…”

“…Several studies demonstrate that reduced SREBP-1 mRNA and protein expression in rat hepatocytes and liver result from AMPK activation. Activation of AMPK decreased the stability of mature SREBP-1 protein in hepatocytes by acceleration of its proteasomal degradation (25,16). Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that AMPK may play a role in mediating the effects of ethanol on SREBP-1.…”
