Abstract

Although the effects of thermogenic agents in cell culture can be measured by direct microcalorimetry, only a few samples can be analyzed over several hours. In this report, we describe a robust non-invasive technique to measure real-time thermogenesis of cells cultured in microtiter plates using infrared thermography. Yeast were transformed with uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) or exposed to carbonyl cyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP) or rotenone. Adipocytes were exposed to rotenone, FCCP, cycloheximide. troglitazone, or CL316243. Thermogenesis was measured using infrared thermography. Thermogenesis increased after exposing yeast to the mitochondrial uncoupler, FCCP, or transforming the cells with UCP2. Further, thermogenesis in adipocytes was stimulated by CL316243, a beta3-adrenoceptor agonist being developed to treat obesity. The protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide, did not inhibit CL316243-mediated thermogenesis. In contrast, the mitochondrial proton transport inhibitor, rotenone, inhibited thermogenesis in yeast and adipocytes. Similarly, the antidiabetic agent, troglitazone, suppressed thermogenesis in adipocytes. Although increased UCP synthesis resulted in increased thermogenesis in yeast, UCP express...Continue Reading

Adrenergic Receptors: Trafficking

Adrenergic receptor trafficking is an active physiological process where adrenergic receptors are relocated from one region of the cell to another or from one type of cell to another. Discover the latest research on adrenergic receptor trafficking here.
