EFFECT OF TROGLITAZONE ON MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES AND PPAR-γ GENE EXPRESSION IN 3T3-L1 ADIPOCYTE CELLS
Main Article Content
Abstract
3T3-L1 cells are extensively used as a model to study adipogenesis. However, one major concern is the prolonged period of time it takes the cells to differentiate into adipocytes form. To induce this differentiation, the adipogenic induction media is required. In this study, troglitazone, a hypoglycemic agent was added to adipogenic induction media and observed in order to determine the morphological changes and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) gene expression in 3T3-L1 differentiation. It is generally known that PPAR-ê© plays an important role as a transcription factor in adipocyte differentiation. Based on Oil Red O Staining, adipogenic induction with or without troglitazone changed the 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes into mature round fat cells characterized by red droplet lipids. This cell also had a high absorbance level and degree of droplet accumulation of P≤ 0.05 in each group. In addition, cells treated by troglitazone had the highest PPAR-ê© mRNA level (1.9 fold) than those treated by adipogenic induction media without troglitazone or cells un-treated at all.
