Abstract
Evidence has demonstrated that Wnt/�²-catenin signaling pathway serves as an important regulator of the differentiation and biology function of adipocytes. It had been known that activate canonical Wnt signaling blocks adipogenesis, and Dickkopf-1 (DKK-1) is an antagonist for this pathway, but little is known about the direct effects of DKK-1 on the differentiation and secretion of human primary preadipocytes. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of recombination human DKK- 1(rhDKK-1) on the differentiation and adipocytokines secretion of preadipocytes in vitro. Preadipocytes were isolated from human omental adipose tissue and induced to differentiation in the absence or presence of rhDKK-1, culture supernatant was collected to analyse adipocytokines secretion, RT-PCR and Western-blotting were used to detect gene and protein expression. Our results showed that DKK-1 could be secreted by preadipocytes during early adipogenesis and the concentration declined after nine days. Exogenous rhDkk-1 exposure accelerated adipogenesis process by up-regulating adipogenic marker genes such as PPAR-�³, C/EBP�± and �²-catenin, it can also down-regulate Wnt3a and Wnt10b expression, but it had no effect on noncanonical Wnt signaling marker Wnt5a. In addition, compared with the parallel control, rhDKK-1 can increase the secretion of leptin, RBP4 and TNF-�± and adiponectin during differentiation. So we concluded that rhDKK-1 could promote preadipocytes differentiation and increase adipocytokines secretion via canonical Wnt signaling pathway in vitro.
