Study Methodology and Key Results

In this in vitro study, progenitor cells from axillary adipose depots (fat tissue located in the armpit region) were isolated from mice and placed in tissue culture under defined conditions. Treatment of these cells with micromolar concentrations of the MSDC compounds elicited a time- and dose-dependent differentiation of the progenitor cells into brown-like adipose cells. The brown-like adipose cells express UCP1 message and protein in a process that includes increased mitochondrial biogenesis. These effects were not attenuated by the potent PPARy antagonists, T0070907 and GW9662, confirming the PPAR-independent pharmacology of the MSDC compound.  Importantly, the cells from axillary adipose depots also secreted the insulin-sensitizing hormone adiponectin in response to the MSDC compounds. These results show that novel insulin sensitizers that increase brown fat could have important implications for the development of new therapies to treat type 2 diabetes.
