Adenovirus transduction of 3T3-L1 cells [PDF]
3T3-L1 cells offer an excellent model system for studies of differentiation and biochemistry of fat cells. However, these cells are limited in their utility by the low efficiency with which DNA can be introduced by transfection.

The 3T3-L1 adipocyte glycogen proteome [PDF]
Abstract Background Glycogen is a branched polysaccharide of glucose residues, consisting of α-1-4 glycosidic linkages with α-1-6 branches that together form multi-layered particles ranging in size from 30 nm to 300 nm.

Cistanche promotes the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes
Cistanche deserticola Ma (cistanche) is a traditional herb with a wide range of therapeutic properties. However, no evidence of cistanche’s effect on adipogenesis has been found. The effect of cistanche that promotes the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was proved by using MTT spectrophotometry, Nile Red staining, Oil Red O staining and ...

Development of Insulin Resistance in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes [PDF]
Insulin resistance is a manifestation of both diabetes mellitus and obesity. However, the mechanism is still not clearly identified. Herein, we describe a procedure that allows us to evaluate the development of insulin resistance in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Under these conditions, we show that the concentration of insulin required for 50% desensitization of ...

Inhibition of adipogenesis by Tempol in 3T3-L1 cells [PDF]
Obesity is highly associated with an increased risk of serious health conditions including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. Changes in redox status with increased oxidative stress have been linked with obesity. Previous studies have shown that administration of the antioxidant Tempol in the food of mice prevents obesity ...

AGMO Inhibitor Reduces 3T3-L1 Adipogenesis [PDF]
Alkylglycerol monooxygenase (AGMO) is a tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4)-dependent enzyme with major expression in the liver and white adipose tissue that cleaves alkyl ether glycerolipids. The present study describes the disclosure and biological characterization of a candidate compound (Cp6), which inhibits AGMO with an IC50 of 30–100 µM and 5–20-fold ...

Isorhamnetin Represses Adipogenesis in 3T3‐L1 Cells [PDF]
Adipocyte dysfunction is strongly associated with the development of obesity, which is a major risk factor for many disorders including diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. It is generally accepted that the regulation of adipogenesis or adipokines expression prevents obesity.

Resistin promotes 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between resistin (a potential link between obesity and type 2 diabetes) and preadipocyte differentiation. DESIGN: A rat resistin expression vector was transfected into 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and differentiation was compared between normal 3T3-L1 cells, rat resistin-transfected cells and non-transfected cells ...

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

Stable conditional expression and effect of C/EBPβ-LIP in adipocytes using the pSLIK system [PDF]
Murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes are widely used as a cellular model of obesity. However, whereas transfection of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes is straightforward, ectopic gene expression in mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes has proved challenging.
