Abstract

Trans-10, cis-12 (t10-c12) CLA treatment reduces lipid accumulation in differentiating mouse and human adipocytes, and decreases fat mass in mice, yet the mechanism of action remains unknown. This study investigated the effect of the cis-9, trans-11 (c9-t11) and t10-c12 CLA isomers on the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which has been reported to inhibit adipogenesis by down-regulating PPARγ. We observed that t10-c12 CLA treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes increases the levels of β-catenin and Ser-675 phosphorylated β-catenin due to inhibition of its degradation. These changes in β-catenin were not linked to either the Wnt/β-catenin agonist Wnt10b or other upstream effectors such as SFRP-5. Paradoxically, the presence of higher amounts of β-catenin did not elevate cyclin D1 levels, which is recognized as a critical target gene. Neither of the CLA isomers affected the localization of β-catenin in the cytosol and nucleus as determined by immunofluorescence microscopy. However, subcellular fractionation suggested the level of cytosolic β-catenin was reduced in t10-c12 CLA treated cells. Immunoprecipitation revealed that t10-c12 CLA increased the interaction of β-catenin and PPARγ. t10-c12-CLA inhibits adipocyte differentiation by increasing β-c...Continue Reading

Cadherins and Catenins

Cadherins (named for "calcium-dependent adhesion") are a type of cell adhesion molecule (CAM) that is important in the formation of adherens junctions to bind cells with each other. Catenins are a family of proteins found in complexes with cadherin cell adhesion molecules of animal cells: alpha-catenin can bind to β-catenin and can also bind actin. β-catenin binds the cytoplasmic domain of some cadherins.

Adherens Junctions

An adherens junction is defined as a cell junction whose cytoplasmic face is linked to the actin cytoskeleton. They can appear as bands encircling the cell (zonula adherens) or as spots of attachment to the extracellular matrix (adhesion plaques). Adherens junctions uniquely disassemble in uterine epithelial cells to allow the blastocyst to penetrate between epithelial cells. Discover the latest research on adherens junctions here.
