    Description: Obesity induced in mice by high-fat feeding activates the protein kinase Cdk5 (cyclin-dependent kinase 5) in adipose tissues. This results in phosphorylation of the nuclear receptor PPARgamma (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma), a dominant regulator of adipogenesis and fat cell gene expression, at serine 273. This modification of PPARgamma does not alter its adipogenic capacity, but leads to dysregulation of a large number of genes whose expression is altered in obesity, including a reduction in the expression of the insulin-sensitizing adipokine, adiponectin. The phosphorylation of PPARgamma by Cdk5 is blocked by anti-diabetic PPARgamma ligands, such as rosiglitazone and MRL24. This inhibition works both in vivo and in vitro, and is completely independent of classical receptor transcriptional agonism. Similarly, inhibition of PPARgamma phosphorylation in obese patients by rosiglitazone is very tightly associated with the anti-diabetic effects of this drug. All these findings strongly suggest that Cdk5-mediated phosphorylation of PPARgamma may be involved in the pathogenesis of insulin-resistance, and present an opportunity for development of an improved generation of anti-diabetic drugs through PPARgamma.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2987584/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2987584/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Choi, Jang Hyun -- Banks, Alexander S -- Estall, Jennifer L -- Kajimura, Shingo -- Bostrom, Pontus -- Laznik, Dina -- Ruas, Jorge L -- Chalmers, Michael J -- Kamenecka, Theodore M -- Bluher, Matthias -- Griffin, Patrick R -- Spiegelman, Bruce M -- DK087853/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK31405/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- K99 DK087853/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM084041/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM084041-03/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM084041/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK031405/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK031405-30/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- S10 RR027270/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- U54 MH084512/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U54 MH084512-020010/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- U54-MH084512/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- Intramural NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Jul 22;466(7305):451-6. doi: 10.1038/nature09291.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cancer Biology and Division of Metabolism and Chronic Disease, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20651683" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes is increasing worldwide and threatens to shorten lifespan. Impaired insulin action in peripheral tissues is a major pathogenic factor. Insulin stimulates glucose uptake in adipose tissue through the GLUT4 (also known as SLC2A4) glucose transporter, and alterations in adipose tissue GLUT4 expression or function regulate systemic insulin sensitivity. Downregulation of human and mouse adipose tissue GLUT4 occurs early in diabetes development. Here we report that adipose tissue GLUT4 regulates the expression of carbohydrate-responsive-element-binding protein (ChREBP; also known as MLXIPL), a transcriptional regulator of lipogenic and glycolytic genes. Furthermore, adipose ChREBP is a major determinant of adipose tissue fatty acid synthesis and systemic insulin sensitivity. We find a new mechanism for glucose regulation of ChREBP: glucose-mediated activation of the canonical ChREBP isoform (ChREBP-alpha) induces expression of a novel, potent isoform (ChREBP-beta) that is transcribed from an alternative promoter. ChREBP-beta expression in human adipose tissue predicts insulin sensitivity, indicating that it may be an effective target for treating diabetes.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3341994/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3341994/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Herman, Mark A -- Peroni, Odile D -- Villoria, Jorge -- Schon, Michael R -- Abumrad, Nada A -- Bluher, Matthias -- Klein, Samuel -- Kahn, Barbara B -- DK037948/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK046200/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK056341/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK057521/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- K08 DK076726/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK056341/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK056341-11/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK037948/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK037948-22/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK098002/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK043051/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK43051/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2012 Apr 19;484(7394):333-8. doi: 10.1038/nature10986.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22466288" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Visceral and s.c. fat exhibit different intrinsic properties, including rates of lipolysis, and are associated with differential risk for the development of type 2 diabetes. These effects are in part related to cell autonomous differences in gene expression. In the present study, we show that expression of Shox2 (Short stature...

    Description: Nob3 is a major obesity quantitative trait locus (QTL) identified in an intercross of New Zealand Obese (NZO) mice with C57BL/6J (B6), and by introgression of its 38 Mbp peak region into B6 (B6.NZO- Nob3.38 ). B6.NZO- Nob3.38 mice carrying the NZO allele exhibited markedly increased body weight, fat mass, lean mass and a lower energy expenditure, than the corresponding B6 allele carriers. For positional cloning of the responsible obesity gene, five additional congenic lines (RCS) were generated and characterized, allowing to define a critical genomic interval comprising 43 genes. mRNA profiling and western blotting indicated that Ifi202b , a member of the Ifi200 family of interferon inducible transcriptional modulators, was expressed in NZO-allele carriers but was undetectable in tissues of homozygous B6-allele carriers due to a microdeletion, including the first exon and the 5'-flanking region of Ifi202b in B6. Transcriptome analysis of adipose tissue of RCS revealed a marked induction of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 ( 11β-Hsd1 ) expression in mice expressing Ifi202b . Furthermore, siRNA-mediated Ifi202b suppression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes resulted in a significant inhibition of 11β-Hsd1 expression, whereas an adenoviral-mediated overexpression of Ifi202b increased 11β-Hsd1 mRNA levels. Expression of human IFI orthologues was significantly increased in visceral adipose tissue of obese subjects. We suggest that the disruption of Ifi202b in B6 is responsible for the effects of the obesity QTL Nob3 , and that Ifi202b modulates fat accumulation through expression of adipogenic genes such as 11β-Hsd1 .
