Abstract
Background The molecular mechanism underlying broiler fat deposition is still poorly understood. Method Currently, we used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) to identify differentially expressed proteins in abdominal adipose tissues of birds at 4 week of age derived from Northeast Agricultural University broiler lines divergently selected for abdominal fat content (NEAUHLF). Results Thirteen differentially expressed protein spots were screened out and identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The protein spots were matched to thirteen proteins by searching against the NCBInr database. These identified proteins were apolipoprotein A-I (Apo A-I), cytokeratin otokeratin, ATP synthase subunit alpha, peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP4 (PPIase FKBP4), aspartate aminotransferase, carbonic anhydrase II (CA-II), prostaglandin-H2 D-isomerase precursor, fibrinogen alpha chain, lamin-A (LMNA), superoxide dismutase [Mn] (MnSOD), heat shock protein beta-1 (HSPβ1) and two predicted proteins. These differentially expressed proteins are involved mainly in lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, signal transduction, energy conversion, antioxidant, and cytoskeleton. Differential expression of Apo A-I, PPIase FKBP4, and cytokeratin otokeratin proteins were further confirmed by Western blot analysis. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR analyses showed that, of these 13 differentially expressed proteins, only PPIase FKBP4 and cytokeratin otokeratin were differentially expressed at mRNA level between the two lines. Conclusions Our results have provided further information for understanding the basic genetics control of growth and development of broiler adipose tissue.

Abstract
Although the insulin-mediated cell signaling pathway has been extensively examined, changes in the cellular content of metabolites currently remain unclear. We herein examined metabolite contents in 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated with insulin using a metabolomic analysis. Fifty-four compounds were detected, and the contents of metabolites from the citric acid cycle increased in response to the insulin treatment for 4 h, which was sensitive to U0126 and LY294002, inhibitors for mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase-1 and phosphoinositide 3-kinase, respectively. The cellular contents of fumaric acid and malic acid were increased more by insulin than those of citric acid and succinic acid. Time-course changes in metabolites from the citric acid cycle exhibited oscillations with a 2-h cycle. A metabolic pathway analysis also indicated that insulin affected the metabolism of alanine, aspartate and glutamate, as well as that of arginine and proline. The contents of free amino acids were slightly decreased by the insulin treatment, while the co-treatment with U0126 and LY294002 abrogated these insulin-mediated decreases. The present study revealed the unexpected accumulation of citric acid cycle metabolites in adipocytes by insulin. Our results indicate the usefulness of metabolomic analyses for obtaining a more comprehensive understanding of the regulation of metabolic pathways in cell-culture systems.

Abstract
Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) was previously shown to promote fatty acid (FA) release from adipose tissue (AT). Net lipolysis is an equilibrium between triglyceride breakdown and FA re-esterification. The latter requires activated glyceroneogenesis for glycerol-3-phosphate synthesis and increased cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C), the key enzyme in this pathway. We wondered whether glyceroneogenesis and PEPCK-C would be IFN-gamma targets. We injected mice with IFN-gamma, and exposed either AT explants and isolated adipocytes from humans and mice or 3T3-F442A adipocytes to IFN-gamma before monitoring expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism and the metabolic consequences. We show that IFN-gamma induces a large increase in FA release without affecting glycerol output and decreases [1-(14)C]-pyruvate incorporation into lipids, thus demonstrating that FA re-esterification is reduced due to diminished glyceroneogenesis. A series of mRNA encoding proteins involved in FA metabolism remained unaffected by IFN-gamma, while that of PEPCK-C was rapidly and drastically lowered. IFN-gamma effect opposed that of the beta-agonist isoproterenol and of 8-Br-cAMP. In IFN-gamma-treated mice, PEPCK-C gene expression was decreased in AT, but not in liver or kidney. Thus, IFN-gamma exerts a tissue-specific action in rodents and humans, having glyceroneogenesis and the PEPCK-C gene as selective targets to intensify FA release from adipocytes.

Abstract
We show that cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase (cAspAT) is involved in adipocyte glyceroneogenesis, a regulated pathway that controls fatty acid homeostasis by promoting glycerol 3-phosphate formation for fatty acid re-esterification during fasting. cAspAT activity, as well as the incorporation of [(14)C]aspartate into the neutral lipid fraction of 3T3-F442A adipocytes was stimulated by the thiazolidinedione (TZD) rosiglitazone. Conversely, the ratio of fatty acid to glycerol released into the medium decreased. Regulation of cAspAT gene expression was specific to differentiated adipocytes and did not require any peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma)/retinoid X receptor-alpha direct binding. Nevertheless, PPARgamma is indirectly necessary for both cAspAT basal expression and TZD responsiveness because they are, respectively, diminished and abolished by ectopic overexpression of a dominant negative PPARgamma. The cAspAT TZD-responsive site was restricted to a single AGGACA hexanucleotide located at -381 to -376 bp whose mutation impaired the specific RORalpha binding. RORalpha ectopic expression activated the cAspAT gene transcription in absence of rosiglitazone, and its protein amount in nuclear extracts is 1.8-fold increased by rosiglitazone treatment of adipocytes. Finally, the amounts of RORalpha and cAspAT mRNAs were similarly increased by TZD treatment of human adipose tissue explants, confirming coordinated regulation. Our data identify cAspAT as a new member of glyceroneogenesis, transcriptionally regulated by TZD via the control of RORalpha expression by PPARgamma in adipocytes.

Abstract
CD14, CD68 and/or mouse F4/80 or human epidermal growth factor module-containing mucin-like receptor 1 (EMR1) are widely used as macrophage-specific markers. Since macrophages infiltrate several tissues during inflammatory processes, CD14, CD68 and EMR1-F4/80 have been employed to discriminate between tissue-containing macrophages, like adipose tissue (AT), and other cells. Using real-time PCR experiments, we show that isolated adipocytes from humans and mice AT express high levels of CD14 and CD68 mRNA, whereas EMR1-F4/80 is mainly present in the macrophage-containing stroma-vascular fraction. Furthermore, fibroblasts-like cells (adipoblasts), preadipocytes and adipocytes from the murine cell lines, 3T3-F442A and BFC-1, express CD14 and CD68 mRNA and protein as determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorter, but not F4/80 which, as expected, is strongly expressed in the macrophage cell line RAW264.7. These results reinforce the view that EMR1-F4/80 is the best macrophage marker to date and show that CD14 and CD68 are not macrophage-specific proteins.

Abstract
Aerobic conditioned muscle shows increased oxidative metabolism or glucose relative to untrained muscle at a given absolute exercise intensity. The studies of a targeted risk reduction intervention through defined exercise (STRRIDE) study is an aerobic exercise intervention in men and women with features of metabolic syndrome (Kraus WE, Torgan CE, Duscha BD, Norris J, Brown SA, Cobb FR, Bales CW, Annex BH, Samsa GP, Houmard JA, and Slentz CA, Med Sci Sports Exerc 33: 1774–1784, 2001), with four muscle biopsies taken during training and detraining time points. Here, we expanded a previous study (Hittel DS, Kraus WE, and Hoffman EP, J Physiol 548: 401–410, 2003) and used mRNA profiling to investigate gene transcripts associated with energy and substrate metabolism in STRRIDE participants. We found coordinate regulation of key metabolic enzymes with aerobic training in metabolic syndrome (aspartate aminotransferase 1, lactate dehydrogenase B, and pyruvate dehydrogenase-α1). All were also quickly downregulated by detraining, although the induction was not an acute response to activity. Protein and enzymatic assays were used to validate mRNA induction with aerobic training and loss with detraining (96 h to 2 wk) in 10 male and 10 female STRRIDE subjects. We propose that training coordinately increases the levels of aspartate aminotransferase 1, lactate dehydrogenase B, and pyruvate dehydrogenase-α1subunit, increasing glucose metabolism in muscle by liberating pyruvate for oxidative metabolism and, therefore, limiting lactate efflux. Serial measurement of fasting plasma lactate from 62 subjects from the same exercise group demonstrated a significant decrease of circulating lactate with training. We also found evidence for sex-specific molecular remodeling of muscle with ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase core protein II, a component of mitochondrial respiratory complex III, which showed an increase after training that was specific to women. These biochemical adaptations complement existing molecular models for improved glucose tolerance with exercise intervention in prediabetic individuals.
