| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our purpose was to investigate the roles of adipocyte on the pathophysiology of the cardiovascular system and to clarify the mechanisms underlying serious pathological outcome including sudden death and to find out biomarkers that indicate abnormal conditions of adipocyte. To achieve our purpose, we tried to prepare a culture system model of adipocyte using 3T3-L1 cell line. This cell line has been utilized widely as an adipocyte model, but the 3T3-L1 cell have originally fibroblast-like phenotype and have to be differentiated into adipocyte-like phenotype by a couple of reagents. Moreover, it is difficult to maintain the adipocyte-like phenotype for a long time in a culture system. We, therefore, tested various conditions of cell culture, and we recognized that the number of cell passage, cell confluency, or timing of addition or removal of differentiation reagents were important factors for establishing a stable culture system.
