Adipogenesis, lipolysis, and extracellular matrix remodeling are early modulated by a triterpene-enriched natural extract in a mouse cell line and primary human adipocytes

ABSTRACT: Chronic Inflammation has a key role in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Previously, we demonstrated that OBE100, a natural extract from the leaves of Eucalyptus tereticornis, has anti-inflammatory properties. Three pentacyclic triterpenoids, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, and ursolic acid lactone are the major compounds present in OBE100. These molecules have shown multiple biological activities. In this study we analyzed how the compounds of OBE100 modify adipocyte gene expression using RNA sequencing. Triterpenoids regulate the inflammatory program in differentiated adipocytes, inhibiting the expression of many cytokines, chemokines, and inflammatory mediators. However, the OBE100 extract has a more powerful immunomodulatory effect than the triterpene mixture increasing the number of genes regulated, both in mouse and human models. Our study shows that OBE100 is a promising extract for the treatment of diabetes that can break the link between inflammation and insulin resistance.

Project description:Insulin resistance is a heterogeneous disorder caused by a range of genetic and environmental factors, and we hypothesise that its aetiology varies considerably between individuals. This heterogeneity provides significant challenges to the development of effective therapeutic regimes for long-term management of type 2 diabetes. We describe a novel strategy, using large-scale gene expression profiling, to develop a gene expression signature (GES) that reflects the overall state of insulin resistance in cells and patients. The GES was developed from 3T3-L1 adipocytes that were made M-bM-^@M-^\insulin resistantM-bM-^@M-^] by treatment with tumour necrosis factor (TNF-alpha and then reversed with aspirin and troglitazone (M-bM-^@M-^\re-sensitizedM-bM-^@M-^]). The GES consisted of 5 genes whose expression levels best discriminated between the insulin resistant and insulin re-sensitized states. We then used this GES to screen a compound library for agents that affected the GES genes in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in a way that most closely resembled the changes seen when insulin resistance was successfully reversed using aspirin and troglitazone. This screen identified both known and new insulin sensitising compounds including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, beta-adrenergic antagonists, beta-lactams and sodium channel blockers. We tested the biological relevance of this GES in participants in the San Antonio Family Heart Study (n = 1,240) and showed that patients with the lowest GES scores were more insulin resistant (according to HOMA_IR and fasting plasma insulin levels, P < 0.001). These findings show that GES technology can be used for both discovery of insulin sensitising compounds and characterisation of patients into subtypes of insulin resistance according to GES scores, opening the possibility of developing a personalised medicine approach to type 2 diabetes. Three-condition experiment, Vehicle, TNF and TNF+ASA+TGZ with biological replicates: 22 Vehicle, 21 TNF and 21 TNF+ASA+TGZ , independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
