Enhancement of adipocyte differentiation by an insulin-sensitizing agent

RF Kletzien, SD Clarke and RG Ulrich

Upjohn Laboratories, Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49001.

The thiazolidinediones are a class of novel antidiabetic compounds that enhance the response of target tissues to insulin. Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione analog, lowers blood glucose and insulin levels in rodent models of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. We have studied the effect of pioglitazone on 3T3-L1 cells, a cell line that undergoes differentiation from a preadipocyte fibroblastic morphology to that of an adipocyte. Pioglitazone treatment of preadipocytes enhanced the insulin- or insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I)-regulated differentiation (monitored by the rate of lipogenesis or triglyceride accumulation), whereas treatment of the cells in the absence of insulin or IGF-I resulted in no apparent change in the cellular phenotype. Pioglitazone caused both a leftward shift and enhanced maximum response for the IGF-I-regulated differentiation of the cells, consistent with the idea that the drug enhances the sensitivity of cells to polypeptide hormones. A series of pioglitazone analogs were tested in this system, and variations in activity relative to that of the parent compound were observed. A study of the time required for the drug to exert an effect on differentiation revealed that an increased rate of lipogenesis occurred 16-24 hr after drug treatment in appropriately staged cells. An increased rate of glucose transport and increased activity of lipogenic enzymes were noted in a time frame that correlated with the change in lipogenesis. Analysis of mRNA abundance for Glut-4, lipoprotein lipase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase showed that pioglitazone enhanced the insulin induction of these mRNA species. Thus, pioglitazone, in combination with insulin or IGF-I, appears to be exerting effects on the cellular phenotype by eliciting changes in the expression of genes that regulate metabolic pathways leading to the acquisition of the differentiated phenotype.
