Abstract

Adipocyte responses to adrenergic and ß-adrenoceptor(-AR) (adrenoceptor) regulation are not sufficiently understood, and information helpful for elucidating the adrenoceptor-responsive machinery is insufficient. Here we show by using immunoprecipitated kinase analysis with a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) p85 antibody that PI3K activation was induced by treatment with 10 or 100 µM norepinephrine (NE) for 15 min or with 10 mM aluminum fluoride (AF, a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding (G) protein activator) for 20 min in white adipocytes (rat epididymal adipocytes) and that treatment with pertussis toxin (PTX, a G-protein inactivator) inhibited PI3K activation induced by the 20-min treatment with AF in the cells. In addition, western blot analysis revealed that glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) level in the adipocyte plasma membrane (PM) fraction was increased by treatment with 10 µM NE, 100 µM dobutamine (DOB, a ß<sub>1</sub>-AR agonist), or 0.1 µM CL316243 (CL, a ß<sub>3</sub>-AR agonist) for 30 min or with 10 mM AF for 20 min. NE or AF treatment triggered 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) uptake into adipocytes under the above conditions. Our results advance the understanding of responses to adrenoceptor regulation in white adipocytes and provide possible clues for clarifying the machinery involved in adrenergic and ß-AR responses in the cells.
