Opis ogólny
Obesity is a significant clinical problem that contributes to life-threatening diseases such as diabetes and atherosclerosis. The process of adipogenesis, the formation of adipose tissue, has become better understood by the study of several cell types that can be induced to undergo differentiation into adipocytes. The first, and best characterized, model of adipogenesis in vitro is the 3T3-L1 cell line, a substrain of Swiss 3T3 mouse cell line (Kehinde and Green, 1974). 3T3-L1 cells propagated under normal conditions have a fibroblastic phenotype. However, when treated with a combination of dexamethasone, isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX or MIX) and insulin, 3T3-L1 cells adopt a rounded phenotype and within 5 days begin to accumulate lipids intracellularly in the form of lipid droplets (Figure 1; Rubin et al., 1978). Another cell line, 3T3-F442A, is blocked from differentiating at a later stage, and requires only insulin to differentiate.
The biochemical pathways of adipogenesis have become increasingly well understood with the use of the 3T3-L1 model (reviewed in Gregoire et al., 1998; Rosen et al., 2000). Treatment of cells with dexamethasone activates the transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein b (C/EBPb). IBMX inhibits soluble cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and results in increased intracellular cAMP levels (Elks and Manganiello, 1985). At the nuclear level, treatment with IBMX results in activation of the related transcription factor C/EBPd. C/EBPb and d in turn induce transcription of C/EBPa and PPARγ. Within 3 days of exposure to inducers, the cells undergo two rounds of mitosis, termed mitotic clonal expansion, which are required for differentiation (Tang et al., 2003). Insulin or insulin-like growth factor-1 promote adipocyte differentiation by activating PI3-kinase and Akt activity. Modulation of the activity of the forkhead transcription factor Foxo1 appears to be necessary for insulin to promote adipocyte differentiation (Nakae et al., 2003). C/EBPa and PPARγ direct the final phase of adipogenesis by activating expression of adipocyte-specific genes, such as fatty acid synthetase, fatty acid binding protein, leptin and adiponectin.
Endogenous negative regulators of adipocyte differentiation, such as Pref-1 and Wnt-10b, are highly expressed on undifferentiated 3T3-L1 cells, and are down-regulated upon addition of adipogenesis inducers (Ross et al., 2000; Mei et al., 2002). In addition, cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-b) interfere with adipocyte differentiation (Gregoire et al., 1998).
The identification of regulators of adipogenesis raises the prospect of preventing or reversing obesity through pharmacological means. PPARγ has received particular attention as a target, as it is essential for the final phase of adipocyte differentiation and is a pharmacological target for the thiazolidinedione class of antidiabetic drugs. The pro-adipogenic effect of the thiazolidinediones has led to interest in identifying compounds that retain antidiabetic activity without promoting adipogenesis. In addition, inhibitors of PPARγ activity have been identified that inhibit adipogenesis, and might serve as the basis for development of effective anti-obesity drugs (Wright et al., 2000; Camp et al., 2001).

The Chemicon Adipogenesis Assay provides a convenient format for induction and analysis of adipogenesis in the classic 3T3-L1 model. The most commonly used inducers of adipogenesis, dexamethasone, IBMX and insulin, are provided in convenient, ready-to-use formulations. In addition, reagents for staining of differentiated adipocytes are provided to allow the investigator to obtain quantitative information about inducers and inhibitors of adipogenesis. A solution of Oil Red O is used to stain lipid droplets in mature adipocytes. A wash solution is provided to remove free Oil Red O from the cell layer. Also included is Dye Extraction Solution that extracts lipid-bound Oil Red O for measurement in a spectrophotometer (Figure 2).
