Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of habitual physical exercise training (ET) on browning, which results in producing brite adipocytes, of mature white adipocytes in several white adipose tissues from rats. In both inguinal and retroperitoneal adipose tissue, ET, which was loaded for 10 weeks, has shown to provoke the browning of white adipocytes. Under these conditions, levels of marker molecules of brite adipocytes and transcription modulating factors such as PRDM16 and/or PPAR were significantly elevated compared with sedentary control. It has been shown that browning of inguinal adipocytes might be related with the alteration in levels of activin receptor mRNA, although browning of retroperitoneal adipocytes might depend on changes in BMP7 mRNA. It was suggested, thus, that ET might have an ability to induce the browning of white adipose cells on these tissues through its region-specific modification events.
