Triiodothyronine (T3) effects on the activity, rate of synthesis and mRNA content of the key lipogenic enzyme, fatty acid synthetase, were studied in differentiating ob17 preadipocytes cloned from ob/ob mouse epididymal adipose tissue. During differentiation in the presence of insulin, a 6-10-fold increase in both fatty acid synthetase specific activity and synthesis rate were reproducibly observed and occurred concomitantly. The relative synthesis rate exhibited a progressive elevation from 0.5% at confluence to a maximum level of 2% in the presence of insulin. The rate of the enzyme degradation determined by pulse-chase experiments was similar in differentiating cells and insulin-untreated cells of the same age (t 1/2, 40-42 h). Furthermore, the increase in the enzyme synthesis rate was preceded by a progressively elevating amount of mRNA encoding for this protein as detected by translation in a reticulocyte lysate cell-free system. It is thus suggested that the increment in total and neosynthesized fatty acid synthetase in essentially due to an increased enzyme synthesis, reflecting an increased relative content of its specific mRNA. T3 included at a physiological concentration (1.5 nM) in the culture medium enhanced significantly both enzyme synthesis and its specific mRNA. The most important T3 effect was an acceleration of both processes, a stimulation of the mRNA level being detected as early as day 3 post-confluence and maximum at day 5 when the effect on the synthetase synthesis rate and activity began to be enhanced. This suggests that T3 would mainly affect fatty acid synthetase as a pretranslational level. |
