Abstract
Recent experimental data seem to suggest a relevant role for 1,25[OH]2cholecalciferol (1,25[OH]2D3) in adipocyte physiology and pathophysiology, with some studies showing adipogenic and pro-inflammatory properties, and others lipolytic and anti-inflammatory functions. Moreover, to our knowledge, the role of cholecalciferol (D3) in adipocytes function is still not known. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate in vitro the effects of 1,25[OH]2D3, as well as of D3, in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in basal and inflammatory conditions, testing the effects of different calcium concentrations in adipocytes culture medium. In 3T3-L1 adipocytes, CYP27A1 and CYP27B1 mRNA were detected in basal conditions and induced after D3 treatment. Pre-treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes not only with 1,25[OH]2D3, but also with D3 before inflammatory stimulation, significantly prevented the increase in gene expression and protein secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α, and significantly increased IL-10 mRNA and protein production compared with adipocytes treated only with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Biological effects of D3 were still present after inhibition of P450 activity with ketokonazole. LPS determined a decrease in cell area compared with controls, paralleled by a significant increase in optical density (OD) of lipid droplets, whereas 1,25[OH]2D3 and D3 alone significantly increased adipocytes area and decreased OD. Pretreatment with both forms of vitamin D preserved cells from the reduction in their area observed after LPS treatment. LPS decreased more the area of cells grown in a high calcium medium than of adipocytes grown in a low calcium medium. In the presence of a high calcium medium, 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment preserved cell area, maintaining its anti-inflammatory and adipogenic properties. In conclusion our results show that D3, besides 1,25[OH]2D3, presents anti-inflammatory effects on 3T3-L1, as well as that adipocytes have the enzymatic pathways necessary to locally regulate the production of active forms of vitamin D, capable of influencing adipocyte phenotype and function.

Abstract
During the last past years, the importance and the role of adipose tissues have been greatly expanded. After finding that adipose tissues are metabolically very active, the discovery of leptin moved the status of adipose tissue towards an endocrine tissue able to interact with all major organs via secretion of adipokines. Some years ago, the presence of adipocyte precursors, termed preadipocytes, has been described in all adipose tissue depots from various species of different age. More recently, the discovery that different phenotypes can be obtained from stroma cells of adipose tissue has largely emphazised the concept of adipose tissue plasticity. Therefore, raising great hope in regenerative medicine as adipose tissue can be easily harvested in adults it could represent an abundant source of therapeutic cells. Thus, adipose tissue plays the dual role of Mr Obese Hyde as a main actor of obesity and of Dr Regenerative Jekyll as a source of therapeutic cells. Adipose tissue has not yet revealed all its mysteries although one facet could not be well understood without the other one.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose tissue development and remodeling are closely associated with the growth of vascular network. We hypothesized that adipose tissue may contain progenitor cells with angiogenic potential and that therapy based on adipose tissue-derived progenitor cells administration may constitute a promising cell therapy in patients with ischemic disease. METHODS AND RESULTS In mice, cultured stromal-vascular fraction (SVF) cells from adipose tissue have a great proangiogenic potential, comparable to that of bone marrow mononuclear cells in the mouse ischemic hindlimb model. Similarly, cultured human SVF cells differentiate into endothelial cells, incorporate into vessels, and promote both postischemic neovascularization in nude mice and vessel-like structure formation in Matrigel plug. In vitro, these cells represent a homogeneous population of CD34- and CD13-positive cells, which can spontaneously express the endothelial cell markers CD31 and von Willebrand factor when cultured in semisolid medium. Interestingly, dedifferentiated mature human adipocytes have the potential to rapidly acquire the endothelial phenotype in vitro and to promote neovascularization in ischemic tissue and vessel-like structure formation in Matrigel plug, suggesting that cells of endothelial and adipocyte phenotypes may have a common precursor. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates, for the first time, that adipocytes and endothelial cells have a common progenitor. Such adipose lineage cells participate in vascular-like structure formation in Matrigel plug and enhance the neovascularization reaction in ischemic tissue. These results also highlight the concept that adipose lineage cells represent a suitable new cell source for therapeutic angiogenesis in ischemic disease.

Abstract
Preadipocytes are present throughout adult life in adipose tissues and can proliferate and differentiate into mature adipocytes according to the energy balance. An increasing number of reports demonstrate that cells from adipose lineages (preadipocytes and adipocytes) and macrophages share numerous functional or antigenic properties. No large scale comparison reflecting the phenotype complexity has been performed between these different cell types until now. We used profiling analysis to define the common features shared by preadipocyte, adipocyte, and macrophage populations. Our analysis showed that the preadipocyte profile is surprisingly closer to the macrophage than to the adipocyte profile. From these data, we hypothesized that in a macrophage environment preadipocytes could effectively be converted into macrophages. We injected labeled stroma-vascular cells isolated from mouse white adipose tissue or 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cell line into the peritoneal cavity of nude mice and investigated changes in their phenotype. Preadipocytes rapidly and massively acquired high phagocytic activity and index. 60-70% of preadipocytes also expressed five macrophage-specific antigens: F4/80, Mac-1, CD80, CD86, and CD45. These values were similar to those observed for peritoneal macrophages. In vitro experiments showed that cell-to-cell contact between preadipocytes and peritoneal macrophages partially induced this preadipocyte phenotype conversion. Overall, these results suggest that preadipocyte and macrophage phenotypes are very similar and that preadipocytes have the potential to be very efficiently and rapidly converted into macrophages. This work emphasizes the great cellular plasticity of adipose precursors and reinforces the link between adipose tissue and innate immunity processes.

Abstract
To clarify the molecular basis for the prostaglandin (PG) mediated effects in adipose cells at various stages of their development, expression of mRNAs encoding receptors specific for prostaglandin E2, F2alpha and I2 (i.e. EP, FP, and IP receptors) was investigated in differentiating clonal Ob1771 pre-adipocytes, as well as in mouse primary adipose precursor cells and mature adipocytes. We have further characterized the differential expression of mRNAs encoding three subtypes of the EP receptor, i.e. EP1, EP3, and EP4, and examined the expression of mRNAs encoding the three isoforms (alpha, beta, and gamma) of the EP3 receptor. Altogether the results show that the expression of IP, FP, EP1, and EP4 receptor mRNAs was considerably more pronounced in pre-adipose cells than in adipose cells, mRNAs encoding the alpha, beta, and gamma isoforms of the EP3 receptor were all exclusively expressed in freshly isolated mature adipocytes. These data may indicate that PGI2, PGF2alpha, and PGE2 may interact directly with specific receptors in pre-adipose cells, whose transduction mechanisms are known to affect maturation related changes. In mature adipocytes, however, the equipment of mRNAs encoding the EP3 receptor isoforms is in agreement with the well known effect of PGE2 on adenylate cyclase and lipolysis in mature adipocytes.

Abstract
Expression of mRNAs encoding the two prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (PGHS) isoenzymes (PGHS-1 and -2) was investigated in differentiating clonal Ob1771 mouse preadipocytes and in mouse adipose tissues. Northern analysis revealed that the expression level of PGHS-1 mRNA was reduced by 98+/-0.2% (P <0.01) during differentiation of Ob1771 cells, whereas PGHS-2 mRNA was not detected. By reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis, however, both PGHS-1 and -2 mRNA was detected in Ob1771 preadipose cells. In addition. mRNAs encoding both isoforms were markedly expressed in primary adipose precursor cells with considerably lower expression levels in mature adipocytes (56 75% reduction, P<0.01). Furthermore, exposure to dexamethasone (10 nM) for both 24 h (explants of adipose tissue) and 48 h (Ob1771 adipose cells) resulted in enhanced expression of PGHS-1 mRNA. whereas expression of PGHS-2 mRNA in explants of adipose tissue (24 h incubation) was reduced by 83 +/- 9% (P<0.05). In contrast, exposure to angiotensin II (100 nM) enhanced expression of PGHS-1 mRNA both in mature adipocytes (4 h incubation) and explants of adipose tissue (24 h incubation), and elevated PGHS-2 mRNA expression in mature adipocytes (4 h incubation). In conclusion, this report suggests a differential expression of PGHS mRNAs during adipose cell differentiation, and further suggests that the machinery for prostaglandin synthesis in mature adipocytes may be induced by various hormones.

Abstract
Two adenosine receptors A1 and A2 are associated with either stimulation (A2) or inhibition (A1) of adenylate cyclase. Using the clonal cell line Ob1771, we have studied the expression of the two receptors during the process of adipose conversion accelerated by exposure to dexamethasone and 3-isobutyl-l-methylxanthine (IBMX) during the first 3 days post-confluence. The effects mediated by the two receptors on preadipocyte differentiation and adipocyte metabolism were also investigated. The two adenosine agonists NECA and PIA were used as preferential agonists of the A2- and A1-receptor, respectively. In preadipose cells (just confluent), both of the mouse clonal line and human primary culture, NECA dose-dependently stimulated cAMP production with a significant higher potency (P < 0.01) than did PIA. In adipose cells (16-day post-confluent) NECA was found to exert a biphasic effect on forskolin-stimulated cAMP production: i.e., NECA was clearly inhibitory in the femto- to picomolar concentration range whereas this effect gradually diminished at higher concentrations. The effect of PIA in 16-day post-confluent adipose cells however, was purely inhibitory on both cAMP production (IC50: 33.52 +/- 0.44 fM) and lipolysis (64% +/- 7%; P < 0.01). These findings were corroborated by Northern blot analysis which revealed A1-receptor mRNA to be exclusively expressed in the mature adipocytes, whereas A2-receptor mRNA gradually declined during the differentiation process except in 16-day post-confluent cells. In addition, NECA significantly enhanced the effect of corticosterone-induced differentiation by 46.8% (P < 0.05) but failed to have any adipogenic potency acting either alone or in concert with carbaprostacyclin (cPGI2). Thus, endogenous adenosine may have a bimodal action on adipose tissue metabolism mediated through stimulatory A2- and inhibitory A1-receptors, respectively, as a function of adipose conversion.

Abstract
In addition to cAMP production, a transient elevation of intracellular free Ca2+ has been shown to take place in preadipose cells upon stimulation by carbaprostacyclin (cPGI2), both messengers acting in synergy to initiate adipose cell differentiation (Vassaux, G., Gaillard, D., Ailhaud, G., and Négrel, R. (1992) J. Biol. Chem.267, 11092-11097). Further studies reported herein show that this Ca2+ transient is i) elicited by the natural prostaglandin PGI2, ii) independent of the presence of extracellular Ca2+, suggesting a mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular pools and ii) unaffected by cAMP elevating agents. Moreover, and in contrast to the InsP3-dependent Ca2+ signal evoked by PGF2 alpha, that induced by PGI2 is fully abolished by pretreatment with phorbol esters (EC50: 1-5 nM). Furthermore, experiments designed to empty the Ca2+ pools, using PGI2 or PGF2 alpha as Ca2+ mobilizing agents as well as pretreatments with drugs, allow to conclude that PGI2 mobilizes Ca2+ from an InsP3 sensitive, ryanodine insensitive intracellular pool. Altogether, these results strongly suggest that PGI2 mobilizes Ca2+ from an intracellular store common to that affected by InsP3, by means of a mechanism which remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
The role of growth hormone (GH) in the differentiation process of Ob1771 mouse preadipocyte cells has been studied under culture conditions that were serum-free and hormone-supplemented and which were previously shown to lead to terminal differentiation. In the absence of GH, a dramatic decrease in the adipogenic activity of the culture medium could be observed, as indicated 12 days after confluence by the low levels of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity and the sharp reduction of the number of triacylglycerol-containing cells. This decrease in adipogenic activity was accompanied by a parallel loss of the mitogenic potency of the culture medium. Determination of the half-maximal and maximal concentrations of GH required for the restoration of growth and differentiation were identical, 0.5 and 2 nM, respectively. Despite the presence of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) to substitute for supraphysiological concentrations of insulin and to saturate IGF-I receptor, GH was still required to induce terminal differentiation of a maximal number of cells. However, protein kinase C activators such as prostaglandin F2 alpha, phorbol esters and diacylglycerol were able to mimic GH in promoting a maximal mitogenic-adipogenic response, indicating that the ability of GH to induce diacylglycerol production (Doglio et al., 1989; Catalioto et al., 1990) plays a prominent role in this process. Furthermore, in agreement with the fact that the mitoses which precede terminal differentiation of Ob1771 preadipocytes are strictly controlled by cAMP and only modulated by protein kinase C, terminal differentiation of Ob1771 preadipocytes occurred in the absence of GH upon supplementation with high concentrations of carbaprostacyclin, added as a cAMP-elevating agent or with 8-Br-cAMP, added as a cAMP analogue. It is concluded that the control exerted by GH on terminal differentiation of mouse preadipocytes corresponds to a modulating mitogenic effect mediated through protein kinase C activation and leading to a potentiation of the cAMP and IGF-I mitogenic signalling pathways.

Abstract
The mitogenic-adipogenic effect exerted by arachidonic acid, which leads to terminal differentiation of Ob1771 mouse preadipocytes, has been shown to be (i) blocked by cyclooxygenase inhibitors, (ii) mimicked by a stable analogue of prostacyclin (carbaprostacyclin) and (iii) potentiated by PGF2 alpha. Since these prostanoids are known to be synthesized and secreted by preadipocytes, we have proposed that both prostacyclin as the key mediator and PGF2 alpha as a modulator control the expression of terminal events of adipose conversion by means of an autocrine mechanism (Gaillard, D. et al. and Negrel, R. et al. Biochem. J. (1989) 257, 389-397 and 399-405). In order to test this hypothesis, the release of prostacyclin, characterized under the form of its stable degradation product 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, and that of PGF2 alpha have been studied in the culture medium of Ob1771 cells. A striking increase in the release of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha and to a minor degree of PGF2 alpha was observed when cells were exposed to arachidonic acid as shown by using [3H]arachidonic acid prelabelled cells or by radio-immunoassays. Since antagonists of PGF2 alpha and PGI2 receptors were not available, specific antibodies directed against PGF2 alpha and 6 beta-PGI1, another stable analogue of prostacyclin, were added as neutralizing agents in the culture medium. These antibodies were able to counteract the mitogenic-adipogenic effect of arachidonic acid. Prostacyclin and PGF2 alpha thus appear as autocrine mediators in the process of adipose conversion.

Abstract
The terminal differentiation of Ob1771 pre-adipose cells induced by arachidonic acid in serum-free hormone-supplemented medium containing insulin, transferrin, growth hormone, tri-iodothyronine and fetuin (5F medium) was strongly diminished in the presence of inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis, namely aspirin or indomethacin. Carbaprostacyclin, a stable analogue of prostacyclin (prostaglandin I2) known to be synthesized by pre-adipocytes and adipocytes, behaved as an efficient activator of cyclic AMP production and was able, when added to 5F medium, to mimic the adipogenic effect of arachidonic acid. Prostaglandins E2, F2 alpha and D2, unable to affect the cyclic AMP production, failed to substitute for carbaprostacyclin. However, prostaglandin F2 alpha, which is another metabolite of arachidonic acid in pre-adipose and adipose cells, able to promote inositol phospholipid breakdown and protein kinase C activation, potentiated the adipogenic effect of carbaprostacyclin. In addition, carbaprostacyclin enhanced both a limited proliferation and terminal differentiation of adipose precursor cells isolated from rodent and human adipose tissues maintained in primary culture. These results demonstrate the critical role of prostacyclin and prostaglandin F2 alpha on adipose conversion in vitro and suggest a paracrine/autocrine role of both prostanoids in the development of adipose tissue in vivo.

Abstract
The terminal adipose differentiation of Ob1771 cells, characterized by glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity and triacylglycerol accumulation, was studied in serum-free hormone-supplemented medium containing growth hormone, tri-iodothyronine, insulin, transferrin and fetuin. Arachidonic acid was able to substitute for a crude adipogenic fraction isolated from fetal bovine serum but not for growth hormone or tri-iodothyronine. Arachidonic acid was also able to increase in a rapid and dramatic manner cyclic AMP production; moreover it was able to amplify the adipose conversion promoted by other agents elevating cyclic AMP concentrations and to induce inositol phospholipid breakdown. Both phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, a protein kinase C activator and ionomycin, a Ca2+-mobilizing agent, showed potent synergy with agents elevating cyclic AMP concentrations for the promotion of adipose conversion, whereas 8-bromo cyclic GMP and 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate were ineffective. The triggering of both the cyclic AMP and inositol phospholipid pathways was accompanied by a single round of cell division, and within a few days all the cells became differentiated. Similar results were obtained, after exposure to arachidonic acid, with preadipose 3T3-F442A cells and with rat adipose precursor cells in primary culture. The availability of arachidonic acid from intracellular stores and/or of exogenous origin should play a major role for the onset of critical mitoses leading to terminal differentiation in pre-adipose cells.

Abstract
A serum-free hormone-supplemented medium able to support the growth of rodent adipose precursor cells has been used to characterize additional components from serum required for the differentiation of preadipose Ob17 cells into adipose-like cells. Fetuin is shown to behave as a growth-promoting agent for these cells. In addition to growth hormone, triiodothyronine and a low-molecular weight component(s) also purified from serum, fetuin is required for the full expression of the differentiation program. Other serum proteins as well as other mitogenic factors are unable to substitute for fetuin. A possible role of fetuin in the development of adipose tissue is discussed.
