Prostaglandins Leukot Essent Fatty Acids 2021; 171:102315.

Abstract
The additive effects of prostaglandin (PG)-EP2 agonists on a PG-FP agonist toward adipogenesis in two- or three-dimension (2D or 3D) cultures of 3T3-L1 cells was examined by lipid staining, the mRNA expression of adipogenesis related genes, and extracellular matrixes (ECMs) including collagen molecules (Col) -1, -4 and -6, and fibronectin (Fn), and the sizes and physical properties of 3D sphenoids, as measured by a micro-squeezer. The results indicate that adipogenesis induced 1) an enlargement in the sizes of 3D sphenoids, 2) a substantial enhancement in lipid staining, the expression of the PParγ, Ap2 and Leptin genes, and 3) a significant decrease in the stiffness of the 3D sphenoids. These effects were inhibited by bimatoprost acid (BIM-A), but 4) adipogenesis induced significant down-regulation of Col1 and Fn, and the significant up-regulation of the Col4 and Col6 genes were unchanged by BIM-A. On the addition of an EP2 agonist, such as omidenepag (OMD) or butaprost (Buta), to BIM-A, 1) the sizes of the 3D sphenoids were further decreased, 2) lipid staining was decreased (2D; OMD, 3D; Buta) 3) the stiffness of the 3D sphenoids was increased by Buta, 4) the expression of PParγ was up-regulated (2D; Buta) or unchanged (3D), the expression of Ap2 was down-regulated (2D; OMD) or up-regulated (3D; Buta), and the expression of Leptin was increased (2D), 5) the expression of all four (OMD) or all except Col4 (buta) in 2D, and Col1and Col4 (OMD) in 3D were up-regulated. These collective findings indicate that the addition of an EP2 agonist, OMD or Buta significantly modulated the BIM-A induced suppression of adipogenesis as well as physical properties of 2D and 3D cultured 3T3-L1 cells in different manners.

Abstract
Oxylipins are lipid mediators involved in the physiopathology of all organs. Moreover, isoprostanes have been established as general and reliable in vivo oxidative stress biomarkers. Red wine has proved to exert several benefits through the maintenance of the oxidative balance of the organism. Antiradical scavenging capacity has been mainly attributed to polyphenols. However, melatonin and hydroxytyrosol should be taken into account as potent antiradical agents. The present research aimed to clarify the situation of enzymatic and oxidative injury and eicosanoid urinary excretion related to the intake of three kinds of red wines and their primary musts. Judging by the reduction in the excretion of isoprostanes, red wine consumption exhibited the highest antioxidant protection against oxidative stress, attributed to its OHTyr content (p < 0.05), and to a lesser extent to its MEL content. Similarly, the intake of red wine leads to the cardioprotective effect due to the reduction in the urinary excretion of the pro-inflammatory prostaglandin 2,3-dinor-11-β-PGF2α, besides the increase in the vasodilator prostaglandin PGE1, mediated by the melatonin (p < 0.05) and hydroxytyrosol (p < 0.05) contents. In conclusion, red wine (especially non-aged wine) exerts a higher in vivo antioxidant capacity than must or alcohol.

Abstract
In healthy gut enteric glial cells (EGC) are essential to intestinal epithelial barrier (IEB) functions. In Crohn's Disease (CD), both EGC phenotype and IEB functions are altered, but putative involvement of EGC in CD pathogenesis remains unknown and study of human EGC are lacking. EGC isolated from CD and control patients showed similar expression of glial markers and EGC-derived soluble factors (IL6, TGF-β, proEGF, GSH) but CD EGC failed to increase IEB resistance and healing. Lipid profiling showed that CD EGC produced decreased amounts of 15-HETE, 18-HEPE, 15dPGJ2 and 11βPGF2α as compared to healthy EGC. They also had reduced expression of the L-PGDS and AKR1C3 enzymes. Produced by healthy EGC, the 11βPGF2 activated PPARγ receptor of intestinal epithelial cells to induce cell spreading and IEB wound repair. In addition to this novel healing mechanism our data show that CD EGC presented impaired ability to promote IEB functions through defect in L-PGDS-AKR1C3-11βPGF2α dependent pathway.

Abstract
Prostaglandins are a group of lipid compounds involved in inflammation and cancer. We focused on PGF2α and its stereoisomer 11β-PGF2α and examined the expression and functions of their cognate receptor (FP receptor) and metabolizing enzymes (AKR1B1 and AKR1C3 respectively) in breast cancer. In immunohistochemical analysis FP receptor status associated with adverse clinical outcome only in the AKR1C3 positive cases. Therefore, we studied FP receptor-mediated functions of 11β-PGF2α using FP receptor expressed MCF-7 cell line (MCF-FP). 11β-PGF2α treatment phosphorylated ERK and CREB and induced Slug expression through FP receptor in MCF-FP, and MCF-FP cells demonstrated decreased chemosensitivity compared to parental controls. Finally, the correlation between FP receptor and Slug was also confirmed immunohistochemically in breast cancer cases. Overall these results indicated that the actions of AKR1C3 can produce FP receptor ligands whose activation results in carcinoma cell survival in breast cancer.

Abstract
Fatty tissue is generally found in distinct "depots" distributed throughout the human body. Adipocytes from each of the various depots differ in their metabolic capacities and their responses to environmental stimuli. Although a general understanding of the factors responsible for adipogenic transformation has been achieved, much is not understood about the mechanisms of adipose tissue deposition and the phenotypes of the adipocytes found within each depot. A clue to the factors regulating fat deposition may come from studies of adipogenesis using primary human orbital fibroblasts from patients with thyroid eye disease, a condition in which intense inflammation leads to expansion of orbital adipose tissue via differentiation of fibroblasts to adipocytes. We have previously demonstrated that adipogenesis of orbital fibroblasts is negatively correlated with cellular expression of the Thy-1 surface marker. In this study, we developed a novel imaging flow cytometric approach for the assessment of adipogenesis to test the hypothetical dependence of adipogenic potential on lack of Thy-1 expression. Using this technique, we learned that Thy-1-positive fibroblasts are, in fact, capable of differentiating into adipocytes but are less likely to do so because they secrete a paracrine anti-adipogenic factor. It is possible that such a factor plays an important role in the prevention of excess fat deposition in the normal orbit and may even be exploited as a therapy for the treatment of obesity, a major worldwide health concern.

Abstract
Here, we show that three enzymes belonging to the 1B group of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily, i.e., human placental aldose reductase (AKR1B1), mouse kidney aldose reductase (AKR1B3) and mouse vas deferens protein (AKR1B7), catalyse the reduction of prostaglandin (PG) H(2), a common intermediate of various prostanoids, to form PGF(2alpha) in the presence of NADPH. AKR1B1, AKR1B3 and AKR1B7 displayed higher affinities for PGH(2) (K(m) = 1.9, 9.3 and 3.8 microM, respectively) and V(max) values (26, 53 and 44 nmol/min/mg protein, respectively) than did the human lung PGF(2alpha) synthase (AKR1C3; 18 microM and 4 nmol/min/mg protein, respectively). The PGF(2alpha) synthase activity of AKR1B1 and AKR1B3 was efficiently inhibited by two AKR inhibitors, tolrestat (K(i) = 3.6 and 0.26 microM, respectively) and sorbinil (K(i) = 21.7 and 0.89 microM, respectively), in a non-competitive or mixed-type manner, whereas that of AKR1B7 was not sensitive to these inhibitors (K(i) = 9.2 and 18 mM, respectively). These data provide a molecular basis for investigating novel functional roles for AKR1B members and PGF(2alpha) as mediators of physiological and pathological processes in mammalian organisms.

Abstract
Prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) is a potent paracrine inhibitor of adipocyte differentiation. Here we show that treatment of differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes with PGF2alpha induces the expression of DEC1, a transcriptional repressor that has previously been implicated in the inhibition of adipogenesis in response to hypoxia as a downstream effector of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) transcription factor. Surprisingly, despite performing our experiments under normal ambient oxygen conditions, we find that treatment of differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes with PGF2alpha also results in the marked activation of HIF-1, as measured by an increase in the accumulation of the HIF-1alpha regulatory subunit. However, unlike the effects of hypoxia, this PGF2alpha-induced normoxic increase in HIF-1alpha is not mediated by an increase in the stability of the HIF-1alpha polypeptide, rather we find that PGF2alpha selectively increases the expression of the alternatively spliced HIF-1alpha I.1 mRNA isoform. Significantly, we demonstrate that the shRNA-mediated knockdown of endogenous HIF-1alpha expression attenuates the PGF2alpha-induced expression of DEC1, overcomes the inhibitory effects of PGF2alpha on the expression of proadipogenic transcription factors C/EBPalpha and PPARgamma and partially rescues the PGF2alpha-induced inhibition of adipogenesis. Taken together, these results indicate that PGF2alpha promotes the activation of the HIF-1 transcription factor pathway under normal oxygen conditions, and highlight a potential role for the normoxic activation of the HIF-1/DEC1-pathway in mediating the inhibitory effects of PGF2alpha on adipocyte differentiation.

Abstract
Prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) is a potent physiological inhibitor of adipocyte differentiation, however the specific signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms involved in mediating its anti-adipogenic effects are not well understood. In the current study, we now provide evidence that PGF2alpha inhibits adipocyte differentiation via a signaling pathway that requires heterotrimeric G-protein G alpha q subunits, the elevation of the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), and the activation of the Ca2+/calmodulin-regulated serine/threonine phosphatase calcineurin. We show that while this pathway acts to inhibit an early step in the adipogenic cascade, it does not interfere with the initial mitotic clonal expansion phase of adipogenesis, nor does it affect either the expression, DNA binding activity or differentiation-induced phosphorylation of the early transcription factor C/EBPbeta. Instead, we find that PGF2alpha inhibits adipocyte differentiation via a calcineurin-dependent mechanism that acts to prevent the expression of the critical pro-adipogenic transcription factors PPARgamma and C/EBPalpha. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the inhibitory effects of PGF2alpha on both the expression of PPARgamma and C/EBPalpha and subsequent adipogenesis can be attenuated by treatment of preadipocytes with the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A. Taken together, these results indicate that PGF2alpha inhibits adipocyte differentiation via a G alpha q-Ca2+-calcineurin-dependent signaling pathway that acts to block expression of PPARgamma and C/EBPalpha by a mechanism that appears to involves an HDAC-sensitive step.

Abstract
Several types of prostaglandin (PG)s are synthesized in adipocytes and involved differently in the control of adipogenesis. To elucidate how the PG synthesis is regulated at different stages in the life cycle of adipocytes, we examined the gene expression of arachidonate cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway leading to the delayed synthesis of PGE2 and PGF2alpha and their roles in adipogenesis after exposure of cultured cells to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), which is a useful system for monitoring mitogen-induced changes. While the expression of COX-1 remained constitutive, mRNA and protein levels of COX-2 were up-regulated by treatment with PMA. Preadipocytes exhibited higher gene expression of cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha (cPLA2alpha) and PGF synthase. In contrast, three isoforms of PGE synthase are expressed constitutively during all phases. The delayed synthesis of PGE2 and PGF2alpha following the stimulation for 24 with a mixture of PMA and calcium ionophore A23187 was the highest in preadipocytes, reflecting the increased expression levels of cPLA2alpha and COX-2. Cultured cells treated with PMA during the differentiation phase and then exposed to the maturation medium, or cells treated with PMA in the maturation medium after the differentiation phase showed the suppression of adipogenesis in adipocytes. The attenuating effect of PMA was additionally enhanced when the cell were treated along with A32187 during the differentiation phase, suggesting the involvement of endogenous PGs. The cells at the stages of the differentiation and maturation phases were highly sensitive to exogenous PGE2 and PGF2alpha, respectively, resulting in the marked suppression of the stored fats in adipocytes. Taken together, these results provided the evidence for the distinct gene expression of isoformic enzymes in the COX pathway leading to the synthesis of PGE2 and PGF2alpha and the specific action of these prostanoids at different cycle stages of adipocytes.

Abstract
Selective cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors are nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs used in the management of inflammatory diseases. We demonstrate here that inhibition of the COX-2 enzyme impairs adipocyte differentiation. The inhibition of adipogenesis occurs in the early clonal expansion phase. In particular, COX-2 inhibition limits cell cycle reentry required before terminal adipocyte differentiation. This inhibition of adipogenesis is independent of the production of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma ligand prostaglandin J2, but dependent on the production of proliferative prostaglandins, such as prostaglandin E2. Modulation of the activity of the COX-2 enzyme via COX-2 selective inhibitors might open up new perspectives in the control of obesity and related metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid (AA) at 0.2 mM enhances glucose uptake through increased levels of glucose transporter (GLUT) 1 protein in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Since AA is a precursor of prostaglandins (PGs), we investigated the effect of PGs on glucose consumption in 3T3-L1 cells. Among several PGs, only prostaglandin F(2)alpha (PGF(2)alpha) enhanced glucose consumption in 3T3-L1 cells treated with dexamethasone (DEX), 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine (IBMX), and insulin. To study the mechanism of PGF(2)alpha-enhanced glucose consumption, we investigated the effect of PGF(2)alpha on glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity, triglycerides (TGs) content, and the expression of GLUT1 protein. PGF(2)alpha suppressed GPDH activity and did not increase the expression of GLUT1 protein in 3T3-L1 cells treated with DEX, IBMX, and insulin. These results suggest that AA-stimulated glucose uptake is not through the effect of PGF(2)alpha. Our results indicate that PGF(2)alpha is a unique regulator of adipocyte differentiation (suppression) and glucose consumption (enhancement) in 3T3-L1 cells.

Abstract
We have used the expression of muscarinic m1 receptors in the preadipocytic 3T3-L1 cell line for dissecting the nature of the G protein-linked pathways governing adipocytic differentiation, a complex process controlled by many stimuli and their downstream targets. 3T3-L1 cells can be differentiated by insulin or by ras oncogenes, and MAP kinase has been implicated in this process. However, m1 stimulation failed to induce differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. Furthermore, it prevented insulin or v-ras-induced adipocytic differentiation, utilizing a protein kinase C-independent pathway. m1 stimulation did not alter the phosphorylation state of the insulin receptor substrates IRS-1 and SHC, nor the recruitment of Grb-2. Interestingly, whereas m1 receptors potently activated MAP kinase, another differentiation-inhibitor, TNF alpha, did not affect it. These results suggest that the control of adipocytic differentiation can occur utilizing a biochemical route independent of protein kinase C, and acting downstream, or independently from the Ras-MAP kinase pathway.

Abstract
Conditions that trigger preadipocyte differentiation in vivo have yet to be elucidated. To investigate the role of endogenous arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites on adipose tissue growth, rat preadipocytes in primary culture were induced to differentiate using medium conditioned by isolated mature adipocytes (ACM). Differentiation was determined by assay of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH). When collected in the presence of indomethacin (10 nmol/L) to inhibit prostaglandin (PG) synthesis by adipocytes, ACM induced greater differentiation (GPDH activity, 405 +/- 68 nmol NADH used/min/mg protein) than when indomethacin was added postcollection to inhibit preadipocyte PG synthesis (205 +/- 24, P < .05) or ACM alone (304 +/- 55). This suggested that PGs released by adipocytes inhibited differentiation, whereas those released by preadipocytes appeared to act in an autocrine manner to stimulate differentiation. However, 24-hour collections of ACM contained 125 pmol/L PGE2 and 900 pmol/L PGI2, concentrations too low to promote differentiation when added exogenously. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA; 10 pmol/L), an inhibitor of lipoxygenase (LOX), stimulated the ACM-induced increase in GPDH activity (ACM, 99 +/- 13; ACM + NDGA, 369 +/- 130). In contrast, when differentiation was induced by a hormonal cocktail (MIX), including insulin and corticosterone, NDGA decreased GPDH activity (MIX, 329 +/- 66; MIX + NDGA, 142 +/- 40; P < .03). We concluded that preadipocyte differentiation within adipose tissue may be subject to both positive and negative regulators derived from AA metabolism resulting from both LOX and cyclooxygenase (COX) activity.

Abstract
Adipose differentiation related protein (ADRP) is a 50 kDa protein expressed at high level in differentiated adipocytes. ADRP expression is very low in undifferentiated adipocytes and increases rapidly and dramatically as the cells undergo adipose differentiation. In the present study, we demonstrate that ADRP expression at the mRNA and protein level is stimulated in adipocyte precursor cells in a time- and dose-dependent fashion by treatment with cyclooxygenase inhibitors, particularly indomethacin and ibuprofen. Lipoxygenase inhibitors such as AA861 and nordihydroguaiaretic acid were ineffective. Stimulation of ADRP expression was observed with 10(-5) M ibuprofen but maximal stimulation required a concentration of 3 x 10(-4) M. Nuclear run-on experiments indicated that indomethacin or ibuprofen stimulated the transcription of the ADRP gene in undifferentiated adipocytes. In addition to stimulating the induction of ADRP in undifferentiated cells, ibuprofen and indomethacin also stimulated the level of ADRP mRNA and protein in differentiated adipocytes. These experiments provide new information on the regulation of ADRP, an early inducible gene in the adipocyte differentiation programme in adipocyte precursors and in adipocytes and identify a new target for cyclooxygenase inhibitor action during adipocyte differentiation.

Abstract
Prostaglandin F2alpha inhibits adipose differentiation of primary culture of adipocyte precursors and of the adipogenic cell line 1246 in defined medium. In the present paper, we investigated the effect of FP receptor agonists cloprostenol and fluprostenol on the differentiation of newborn rat adipocyte precursors in primary culture. The results show that cloprostenol and fluprostenol are very potent inhibitors of adipose differentiation. Dose response studies indicate that both agonists are more potent than PGF2alpha in inhibiting adipocyte precursors differentiation. 50% inhibition of adipose differentiation was observed at a concentration of 3 x 10(-12) M for cloprostenol and 3 to 10 x 10(-11) M for fluprostenol respectively whereas the PGF2alpha concentration required to elicit the same effect was 10(-8) M. In contrast compounds structurally related to PGE2 such as 17-phenyl trinor PGE2 had no effect on adipose differentiation except when added at a 10,000-fold higher concentration.

Abstract
Indomethacin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and cyclooxygenase inhibitor that is frequently used as a research tool to study the process of adipocyte differentiation. Treatment of various preadipocyte cell lines with micromolar concentrations of indomethacin in the presence of insulin promotes their terminal differentiation. However, the molecular basis for the adipogenic actions of indomethacin had remained unclear. In this report, we show that indomethacin binds and activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), a ligand-activated transcription factor known to play a pivotal role in adipogenesis. The concentration of indomethacin required to activate PPARgamma is in good agreement with that required to induce the differentiation of C3H10T1/2 cells to adipocytes. We demonstrate that several other NSAIDs, including fenoprofen, ibuprofen, and flufenamic acid, are also PPARgamma ligands and induce adipocyte differentiation of C3H10T1/2 cells. Finally, we show that the same NSAIDs that activate PPARgamma are also efficacious activators of PPARalpha, a liver-enriched PPAR subtype that plays a key role in peroxisome proliferation. Interestingly, several NSAIDs have been reported to induce peroxisomal activity in hepatocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings define a novel group of PPARgamma ligands and provide a molecular basis for the biological effects of these drugs on adipogenesis and peroxisome activity.
