Project description:Adipose tissue is a major target of GH action. GH stimulates lipolysis and reduces fat mass. The molecular mechanism underlying cellular and metabolic effects of GH in adipose tissue is not well understood. The aim of this study is to identify GH-responsive genes that regulate lipid metabolism in adipose tissue. Eight men with GH deficiency underwent measurement of plasma free fatty acid (FFA), whole body lipid oxidation and fat biopsies before and after one month of GH treatment (0.5mg/day). Gene expression profiling was performed using Agilent 44K G4112F arrays utilising a two-colour design. Differentially expressed genes were identified using an empirical Bayes, moderate t-test, with a false discovery rate of < 5%. Genes involved in GH receptor signalling, lipolysis, triglyceride biosynthesis, adipocyte differentiation and function were analysed. Target genes were validated by quantitative RT-PCR. GH increased circulating IGF-I and FFA and stimulated fat oxidation. A total of 246 genes were differentially expressed, of which 135 were up-regulated and 111 down-regulated. GH enhanced adipose tissue expression of IGF-I and SOCS3. It did not change expression of key enzymes governing lipolysis, but differentially regulated genes promoting diacylglycerol syntheses. GH repressed hydroxysteroid (11-beta) dehydrogenase 1, which activates local cortisol production, and genes encoding components of extracellular matrix that regulate inflammation. GH induced concordant change in circulating IGF-I and expression in adipose tissue. GH stimulation of lipolysis is mediated at a translational and/or post-translational level. GH suppressed genes encoding local factors regulating adipocyte differentiation, function and inflammation.

Project description:Muscle is a target of growth hormone (GH) action and a major contributor to whole body metabolism. Little is known about how GH regulates metabolic process in muscle or the extent to which muscle contributes to changes in whole body substrate metabolism during GH treatment. To identify GH-responsive genes that regulate substrate metabolism in muscle, we studied six hypopituitary men who underwent whole body metabolic measurement and muscle biopsies before and after two weeks of GH treatment (0.5mg/day). Transcript profiles of four subjects were analysed using Affymetrix GeneChips. Serum insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), procollagens I and III were measured by RIA. GH increased serum IGF-I, procollagens I and III, enhanced whole body lipid oxidation, reduced carbohydrate oxidation, and stimulated protein synthesis. It induced gene expression of IGF-I and collagens in muscle. GH reduced expression of several enzymes regulating lipid oxidation and energy production. It reduced calpain 3, increased ribosomal protein L38 expression, and displayed mixed effects on genes encoding myofibrillar proteins. It increased expression of circadian gene CLOCK, and reduced that of PERIOD. In summary, GH exerted concordant effects on muscle expression and blood levels of IGF-I and collagens. It induced changes in genes regulating protein metabolism in parallel with a whole body anabolic effect. The discordance between muscle gene expression profiles and metabolic responses suggests that muscle is unlikely to contribute to GH-induced stimulation of whole body energy and lipid metabolism. GH may regulate circadian function in muscle by modulating circadian gene expression with possible metabolic consequences.

Project description:Growth hormone (GH) is important in the development and maintenance of bone; however the IGF-dependent and -independent molecular pathways involved remain to be established. We used microarray analysis to identify genes acutely regulated by GH, in the bones of four week old GH-deficient mice at 6 or 24 hours following a single injection of GH (4 mg/kg body wt) or PBS (n = 6/group). 6,160 genes were differentially expressed at P = 0.05 and 17% of these genes were identified at both time points. Several of the 201 genes that were up or down regulated at > 2 fold at 6 and/or 24 hours (P = 0.01) were expressed sequence tags, transcription factors, or signaling genes. In conclusion, GH caused acute changes in several novel genes, suggesting that many GH-induced signaling pathways and target genes remain to be discovered Keywords: GH injection induced gene expression, time course

Project description:Sex differences in liver gene expression are dictated by sex-differences in circulating growth hormone (GH) profiles. Presently, the pituitary hormone dependence of mouse liver gene expression was investigated on a global scale to discover sex-specific early GH response genes that might contribute to sex-specific regulation of downstream GH targets and to ascertain whether intrinsic sex-differences characterize hepatic responses to plasma GH stimulation. RNA expression analysis using 41,000-feature microarrays revealed two distinct classes of sex-specific mouse liver genes: genes subject to positive regulation (class-I) and genes subject to negative regulation by pituitary hormones (class-II). Genes activated or repressed in hypophysectomized (Hypox) mouse liver within 30-90min of GH pulse treatment at a physiological dose were identified as direct targets of GH action (early response genes). Intrinsic sex-differences in the GH responsiveness of a subset of these early response genes were observed. Notably, 45 male-specific genes, including five encoding transcriptional regulators that may mediate downstream sex-specific transcriptional responses, were rapidly induced by GH (within 30min) in Hypox male but not Hypox female mouse liver. The early GH response genes were enriched in 29 male-specific targets of the transcription factor Mef2, whose activation in hepatic stellate cells is associated with liver fibrosis leading to hepatocellular carcinoma, a male-predominant disease. Thus, the rapid activation by GH pulses of certain sex-specific genes is modulated by intrinsic sex-specific factors, which may be associated with prior hormone exposure (epigenetic mechanisms) or genetic factors that are pituitary-independent, and could contribute to sex-differences in predisposition to liver cancer or other hepatic pathophysiologies.

Project description:The liver is a central target organ of growth hormone (GH), which stimulates the synthesis of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and affects multiple biochemical pathways. A systematic multi-omics analysis of GH actions in the liver has not been performed. GH receptor (GHR) deficiency is a unique model for studying consequences of lacking GH actions. In this study, we used molecular profiling techniques to capture a broad spectrum of these effects in the liver of a clinically relevant large animal model.

Project description:E2 and GH are critical regulators of growth and intermediate metabolism in mammals. Hypothyroidism causes endocrine and metabolic disturbances in the liver with features that mimic deficiencies of E2 or GH signalling. In this work, we used the hypothyroid-orchiectomized (TXOX) adult rat model to evaluate the influence of E2 and GH on the liver in terms of global changes in gene expression. This study shows the changes in hepatic transcriptome that were provoked by E2 benzoate (50 ug/kg; sc; 5 days per week x 27 days), intermittent GH administration (0.3 mg/kg/day;sc injection divided into two daily injections x 7 days) or the combination of E2 plus GH in TXOX rats. E2 influenced the liver transcriptome, particularly genes involved in metabolism of lipids and endo-xenobiotics, and the GH-regulated endocrine, metabolic, gender, and immune responses. E2 did not prevent the inhibitory effects of GH on urea and amino acid metabolism-related genes. Notably, the combination of E2 and GH caused deleterious effects on transcriptional immune response. These results highlight the role of E2 as a critical regulator of liver metabolism in mammals and provide insights into the functional interplay between E2 and GH in the liver.

Project description:This study, using a growth hormone (GH)-deficient dwarf animal model and peripheral GH replacement, investigated the effects of circulating IGF-1 during adolescence on IGF-1 levels in the brain. Our results demonstrated that hippocampal IGF-1 protein concentrations during adolescence are highly regulated by circulating IGF-1, which were reduced by GH deficiency and restored by systematic GH replacement. In contrast, IGF-1 levels in the CSF were decreased by GH deficiency but not restored by GH replacement. Furthermore, analysis of gene expression using microarrays and RT-PCR indicated that circulating IGF-1 levels did not modify the transcription of IGF-1 or its receptor in the hippocampus but did regulate genes that are involved in microvascular structure and function, brain development, and synaptic plasticity, which potentially support brain structures involved in cognitive function during this important developmental period. GH-deficient dwarf (dw/dw) and heterozygous (HZ) rats were identified at postnatal day 33-34. Starting from d35, dw/dw rats received subcutaneous injection of either 300µg GH (dw/dw+GH) or saline (dw/dw+sal) for 7d or 30d. HZ animals received saline for the same periods as controls. Animals (n=4/group for each time point) were sacrificed, the hippocampi were dissected, and total RNA were isolated for subsequent transcriptomic profiling.

Project description:We generated h-hepatocyte chimeric mice with livers that were predominantly repopulated with h-hepatocytes in a h-growth hormone (GH)-deficient state. Using microarray profiles, comparison between h-hepatocytes from h-GH-treated and untreated mice identified 14 GH-up-regulated and four GH-down-regulated genes, including IGF-1, SOCS2, NNMT, IGFLS, P4AH1, SLC16A1, and SRD5A1, and FADS1 and AKR1B10, respectively.
