Hsp90 blockers inhibit adipocyte differentiation and fat mass accumulation.

ABSTRACT: Geldanamycin derivatives are benzoquinone ansamycin antibiotics that bind to Hsp90 and alter its function. The alteration of Hsp90 activity limits some cellular hormonal responses by inhibiting nuclear receptors activation. The nuclear receptors activity, such as PPAR?, the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors (MR and GR) play a critical role in the conversion of preadipocytes to mature adipocytes. Given the importance of these nuclear receptors for adipogenesis, we investigated the effects of geldanamycin analogues (GA) on adipocyte differentiation and function. We found that early exposure of preadipocyte cells to GA inhibited their conversion into mature adipocytes by inhibiting the adipogenic transcriptional program and lipid droplets accumulation. Furthermore, GA altered the adipokines secretion profile of mature adipocyte. The anti-adipogenic effect of GA was also confirmed in mice fed a high fat diet. Biochemical analysis revealed that anti-adipogenic effects of geldanamycin analogues may result from the simultaneous inhibition of MR, GR and PPAR? activity. Taken together, our observations lead us to propose Hsp90 as a potent target for drug development in the control of obesity and its related metabolic complications.

Project description:GPR54, Kisspeptin-1 receptor (KISS1R), a member of rhodopsin family, plays a critical role in puberty development and has been proposed to be involved in regulation of energy metabolism. This study aims to explore the function of GPR54 in adipogenesis, lipid metabolism, and obesity in addition to its effect through hormones. Results showed that when fed a high-fat diet, the weight growth of castrated or ovariectomized Gpr54-/- mice was significantly slower than that of WT control, together with a lower triglyceride concentration. The ratio of white adipose tissue was lower, and average size of adipocytes was smaller in Gpr54-/- mice. Meanwhile, there were less adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs), especially pro-inflammatory macrophages. Expression of inflammatory related genes also indicated that inflammatory response caused by obesity was not as drastic in Gpr54-/- mice as in WT mice. Liver triglyceride in Gpr54-/- mice was reduced, especially in female mice. On the other hand, oil drop formation was accelerated when hepatocytes were stimulated by kisspeptin-10 (Kp-10). Primary mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of Gpr54-/- mice were less likely to differentiate into adipocytes. When stimulated by Kp-10, 3T3-L1 cell differentiation into adipocytes was accelerated and triglyceride synthesis was significantly promoted. These data indicated that GPR54 could affect obesity development by promoting adipocyte differentiation and triglyceride accumulation. To further elucidate the mechanism, genes related to lipid metabolism were analyzed. The expression of genes involved in lipid synthesis including PPARγ, ACC1, ADIPO, and FAS was significantly changed in Gpr54-/- mice. Among them PPARγ which also participate in adipocyte differentiation displayed a marked reduction. Moreover, phosphorylation of ERK, which involved in GPR54 signaling, was significantly decreased in Gpr54-/- mice, suggesting that GPR54 may promote lipid synthesis and obesity development by activating MAP kinase pathway. Therefore, in addition to the involvement in hormone regulation, our study demonstrated that GPR54 directly participates in obesity development by promoting adipocyte differentiation and fat accumulation. This provided evidence of involvement of GPR54 in lipid metabolism, and revealed new potentials for the identification and development of novel drug targets for metabolic diseases.

Project description:BackgroundObesity and metabolic syndrome are important public concerns, and there is increasing demand for effective therapeutic strategies. Flavonoids are expected to improve the risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome. Anthocyanidins are a kind of flavonoids; well known for their anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor properties. However, their effects on adipocytes and molecular systems are not well defined. In this study, we examined the effects of anthocyanidins-enriched bilberry extracts on adipocyte differentiation.MethodsUtilizing 3T3-L1 cell line, we investigated that bilberry extracts and anthocyanidins induced inhibition of lipid accumulation during adipogenesis. To identify what is the most important bilberry mediated-effect, we analyzed the expressions of key transcriptional factors associated with adipocyte differentiation by Real Time (RT)-PCR. From the results of RT-PCR, we hypothesized that bilberry extracts and anthocyanidins blocks insulin signal, we determined the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) protein by western blotting analysis. In addition, we compared the whole-genome expression profiles of early stage of adipocyte differentiation under four different growth conditions (DMSO, bilberry, two anthocyanidins) by microarray analyses and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA).ResultsExposure to bilberry extracts and anthocyanidins during adipocyte differentiation inhibited 3T3-L1 differentiation. During this period, bilberry extracts and anthocyanidin significantly decreased a key adipocyte differentiation-associated marker, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- γ (Ppar γ ) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c (Srebp1c). Western blotting analysis showed that bilberry extracts and anthocyanidin decreased the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues of IRS1. In addition, microarray experiments and GSEA data revealed significantly altered expression of the known genes of the insulin pathway in cells treated with bilberry extracts or anthocyanidins in the early differentiation stages.ConclusionsOur data demonstrate that anthocyanidin enriched bilberry extracts strongly inhibit the adipocyte differentiation via the insulin pathway. Furthermore, bilberry extracts might be used as a potential complementary treatment for the obese patients with metabolic syndrome.
