The effect of adrenalectomy on GDP binding to brown-adipose-tissue mitochondria of obese rat.
نویسندگان
چکیده
GDP binding to brown-adipose-tissue mitochondria of young obese Zucker rats (fa/fa) was significantly lower than in lean control rats, as a result of a decrease in the number of binding sites. Adrenalectomy of fa/fa rats restored GDP binding to control values. Corticosterone replacement suppressed GDP binding in adrenalectomized obese rats.

Regulation of GDP binding and uncoupling-protein concentration in brown-adipose-tissue mitochondria. The effects of cold-acclimation, warm-reacclimation and noradrenaline.
We have used a specific immunoassay for uncoupling protein and [3H]GDP binding to study the acute and chronic responses of brown-adipose-tissue (BAT) mitochondria of warm-acclimated rats to housing at 4 degrees C and cold-acclimated rats to housing at 27 degrees C. These studies have shown the following. (1) In the cold-exposed rat the increase in mitochondrial uncoupling-protein concentration ...
متن کاملEffect of riboflavin deficiency on lipid metabolism of liver and brown adipose tissue of sucking rat pups.
An increase in liver: body-weight and in hepatic triacylglycerol content, together with changes in the fatty acid profiles of hepatic phospholipids, were observed as a result of moderate riboflavin deficiency in sucking rat pups. Oxygen consumption by hepatic mitochondria, with palmitoyl L-carnitine as substrate, was not significantly impaired. Mitochondria from interscapular brown adipose tiss...
متن کاملEvidence for masking of brown adipose tissue mitochondrial GDP-binding sites in response to fasting in rats made obese by dietary manipulation. Effects of reversion to standard diet.
A specific immunoassay of uncoupling protein (UCP) and measurement of GDP binding were used to study the chronic responses of brown adipose tissue (BAT) mitochondria from rats made obese by dietary means (cafeteria rats) and from obese rats subsequently fed a standard diet (post-cafeteria rats). We studied the response to fasting in order to assess the masking/unmasking responses in these group...
متن کاملTHE EFFECT OF EIGHT WEEKS HIGH INTENSITY INTERVAL TRAINING (HIIT) ON SERUM AMOUNTS OF FGF21 AND IRISIN IN SEDENTARY OBESE WOMEN
Background & Aims: Transforming white adipose tissue to brown adipose tissue is considered a solution to overcome undesirable effects of obesity in human beings. Thus, the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on serum amounts of fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and Irisin in sedentary obese women. Materials & Methods: T...
متن کاملIdentification of two mitochondrial GDP-binding sites in rat brown adipose tissue.
Scatchard analysis of specific guanosine-diphosphate-([3H]GDP-) binding to rat brown-adipose-tissue mitochondria revealed two distinct binding sites with apparent dissociation constants (Kd) of approximately 0.05 and 2.0 microM. Binding to both sites was insensitive to atractyloside. Reducing the pH of the binding medium from 7.1 to 6.6 caused marked reductions in the Kd of both sites, but at p...
