Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Ganoderma lucidum herba pharmacopuncture(GHP) on the adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Methods: 3T3- L1 preadipocytes were differentiated with adipogenic reagents by incubating for 2 days in the absence or presence of GHP ranging from 1 and 2%. The effect of GHP on cell proliferation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was investigated using MTT assay. The effect of GHP on adipogenesis was examined by Oil red O staining and measuring glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) and intracellular triglyceride (TG) content. Results: Following results were obtained from the preadipocyte proliferation and adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1. We observed no effect of GHP on preadipocyte proliferation. GHP inhibited adipogenesis, the activity of GPDH and accumulation of intracellular TG content. Conclusions: These results suggest that GHP inhibit differentiation of preadipocyte.

The purpose of this research was to investigate effects of Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen (BCL) on the synthesis of basement membrane proteins during proliferation and differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. BCL has been used to relieve the cough and asthma, and remove phlegm in traditional oriental medicines. In recent years. it was studied for its antiinflammatory, antiallergenic. immune-modulating and anticarcinogenic capabilities. We have previously observed that glycyrrhizin stimulates the adipose conversion of 3T3-L1 cells. To investigate effects of BCL on the basement membrane proteins during proliferation and differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells, we have analyzed synthetic amounts of basement membrane components such as type IV collagen and BM40. BCL stimulated the synthesis and secretion of type IV collagen from both 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes. The synthesis and secretion of BM40 was not affected by BCL. The continuous addition of BCL markedly stimulated cell growth and increased cell density. These results suggest an important role for type IV collagen in adipocyte differentiation.

The E2F gene family appears to regulate the proliferation and differentiation of events that are required for adipogenesis. Pref-1 is a transmembrane protein that inhibits adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells. In this study, we found that the expression of pref-1 is regulated by the transcription factor E2F1. The expression of pref-1 and E2F1 was strongly induced in preadipocytes and at the late differentiation stage. Using luciferase reporter assay, ChIP assay and EMSA, we found that the -211/-194 region of the pref-1 promoter is essential for the binding of E2F1 as well as E2F1-dependent transcriptional activation. Knockdown of E2F1 reduced both pref-1 promoter activity and the level of pref-1 mRNA. Taken together, our data suggest that transcriptional activation of pref-1 is stimulated by E2F1 protein in adipocytes.

In this study, the effects of a methanol (MeOH) extract of Carduus crispus L. (Asteraceae) on adipogenesis was investigated in 3T3-L1 cells. To differentiate preadipocytes to adipocytes, confluent 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were treated with a hormone mixture, which included isobutylmethylxanthine, dexamethasone, and insulin (MDI). The methanol extract of C. crispus significantly decreased fat accumulation by inhibiting adipogenic signal transcriptional factors in MDI-induced 3T3-L1 cells in a dose-dependent manner. In MTT assays and on PI-staining, methanol extract of C. crispus inhibited the proliferation of 3T3-L1 cells during mitotic clonal expansion (MCE). The anti-adipogenic effect of the Carduus extract seemed to be associated with the upregulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways within the first 2 days after MDI treatment. These results suggest that methanol extract of C. crispus might be beneficial for the treatment of obesity.

Adipose tissue is an important endocrine organ involved in the control of whole body energy homeostasis and insulin sensitivity. Considering the increased incidence of obesity and obesity-related disorders, including diabetes, it is important to understand thoroughly the process of adipocyte differentiation and its control. Therefore, we performed a differential proteome mapping strategy using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis combined with peptide mass fingerprinting to identify intracellular proteins that are differentially expressed during adipose conversion of 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes in response to an adipogenic cocktail. In the current study, we identified 46 differentially expressed proteins, 6 of which have not been addressed previously in 3T3-L1 cell differentiation. Notably, we found that phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase (PRPS), a regulator of cell proliferation, was preferentially expressed in pre-adipocytes than in fully differentiated adipocytes. In conclusion, our results provide valuable information for further understanding of the adipogenic process.

본 논문은 PDMS을 기반으로 한 미세접촉인쇄법을 사용하여 보다 효율적으로 지방세포를 선택적으로 배양접시에 부착시켰으며 패터닝 된 배양접시에서 지방세포가 빠르게 지방분화를 가능하게 하였다. PDMS을 이용한 선택적 표면 처리 방법은 기존의 세포칩 제작과 달리 소량의 유기용매사용, 저가의 장비 사용, 또한 효율적으로 특정 지역 안에서 지방세포를 고정화하고 성장시킬 수 있으며 이를 통해 지방세포의 생리학적 상태를 손쉽게 관찰할 수 있는 분석 기술로 활용된다. 이렇게 구성된 지방세포칩 위에 대표적인 비만 억제제 약물인 Orlistat을 $0.2{\mu}M{\sim}5.0{\mu}M$ 농도로 처리하였을 때 대조군에 비하여 최대 26.5%의 억제 효과가 나타남을 확인하였다. 따라서, 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법을 통하여 다양한 비만 억제제 약물 탐색을 위한 세포칩으로 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: The objective of this study was conducted to investigate the effects of rutin, buckwheat components on cell growth and anti-inflammation in adipocyte 3T3-L1 and human colon cancer cell SW-480. Methods: We cultured 3T3-L1 adipocyte and SW-480 colon cancer cell to confluence, at which time starvation was induced with SFM for 1 day. Cells were then cultured in medium containing 0, 25, 50, or $100{\mu}mol/mL$ of rutin 3T3-L1 or 0, 10, 20, or $40{\mu}mol/mL$ SW-480. Cell viability was measured using a cell viability kit. In addition, we examined the expression of mRNA related to inflammation. RT-PCR was used to quantity tumor necrosis factor ($TNF-{\alpha}$), interleukin-$1{\beta}$ ($IL-1{\beta}$), IL-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA levels. Results: Rutin significantly inhibited 3T3-L1 and SW-480 cell proliferation in a dose and time dependent manner. Rutin also significantly reduced the mRNA expression of $IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6 and $TNF-{\alpha}$ at the highest dose. In addition, rutin treatment caused a significant reduction in COX-2 and iNOS mRNA levels compared to the control group. Conclusion: Overall, our results suggest that rutin has the potential to reduce inflammation, and that these effects are greater during tissue-damaging inflammatory conditions.

This study was aimed to investigate the inhibitory effects of Porphyra dentata (P. dentata) extract on the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells and evaluate its anti-obesity effect. The proliferation of 3T3-L1 cells and differentiation of adipocytes under treatment of P. dentata extract was examined by measuring the cell viability using alamarBlue assay and lipid droplets by Oil Red O staining. Results showed that P. dentata extract has no cytotoxicity effect and lipid droplets formation decreased in a concentration-dependent manner in 3T3-L1 cells. It has been confirmed that transcription factors affecting lipid accumulation and anti-adipogenic effects during cell differentiation are linked to P. dentata extract. We observed that P. dentata shows lowering the mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2), CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) that adipogenesis-associated key transcription factors and inhibiting adipogenesis in the early stages of differentiation. Treating the cells with P. dentata did not only suppressed PPARγ2 and C/EBPα but also significantly decreased the mRNA expression of adiponectin, Leptin, fatty acid synthase, adipocyte protein 2, and Acetyl-coA carboxylase 1. Overall, the P. dentata extract demonstrated inhibitory property in adipogenesis, which has a potential effect in anti-obesity in 3T3-L1 cells.
