N-Acetylcysteine Reduces Markers of Differentiation in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes
Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of diabetes, hypertension and atherosclerosis. Some authors reported that fat accumulation correlates to systemic oxidative stress in humans and mice, but the relationship of lipid production and oxidative metabolism is still unclear. In our laboratory we used 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, which are able to differentiate into mature adipocytes ...
متن کاملRegulated renin release from 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Whereas adipose tissue possesses a local renin-angiotensin system, the synthesis and regulated release of renin has not been addressed. To that end, we utilized differentiating 3T3-L1 cells and analyzed renin expression and secretion. Renin mRNA expression and protein enzymatic activity were not detectable in preadipocytes. However, upon differentiation, renin mRNA and both intracellular and ex...
متن کاملThe effects of intracellular calcium depletion on insulin signaling in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
We have examined the requirement for intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) in insulin signal transduction in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Using the Ca(2+) chelator 1,2- bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, sodium (BAPTA-AM), we find both augmentation and inhibition of insulin signaling phenomena. Pretreatment of cells with 50 microM BAPTA-AM did not affect tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin re...
متن کاملCharacterization of insulin-responsive GLUT4 storage vesicles isolated from 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Insulin regulates glucose transport in muscle and adipose tissue by triggering the translocation of a facilitative glucose transporter, GLUT4, from an intracellular compartment to the cell surface. It has previously been suggested that GLUT4 is segregated between endosomes, the trans-Golgi network (TGN), and a postendosomal storage compartment. The aim of the present study was to isolate the GL...
متن کاملEnhanced Bioaccessibility of Crocetin Sugar Esters from Saffron in Infusions Rich in Natural Phenolic Antioxidants.
The present study aims to examine whether and to what extent the bioaccessibility of the major saffron apocarotenoids, namely crocetin sugar esters (CRTSEs), is affected by the presence of strong water-soluble antioxidants, ingredients of the herbs found in commercial tea blends with saffron. An in vitro digestion model was applied to infusions from these products to investigate the possible ch...
