Liver X Receptor Alpha

SummaryMetabolic alterations occur frequently in solid tumours, but metabolic cancer therapies are limited by the complexity and plasticity of metabolic networks. We could recently show that activation of the liver X receptor alpha (LXRα) and inhibition of a Raf-1-SCD1 protein complex induces an intracellular accumulation of saturated free fatty acids leading to lethal lipotoxicity in tumour cells and allows for an efficient treatment of liver carcinomas.

Diabetes in rats was induced with streptozotocin (100 mg/kg); myocardial cells (myocytes) were isolated from the hearts 3-4 days later. Diabetic myocytes were characterized as having the same viability and ATP content as control myocytes, but the yield was reduced. The triacylglycerol content of diabetic myocytes was elevated by 3.7-fold; this resulted in an increased rate of glycerol output during subsequent incubations. There was a stoichiometric relationship between the decline in the cellular triacylglycerol content and the release of glycerol into the incubation medium. Isoproterenol stimulated the output of glycerol from control myocytes by about twofold, but the stimulation of glycerol output from diabetic myocytes by isoproterenol was markedly less. The combination of 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine with isoproterenol or 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate also failed to produce the same lipolytic response in diabetic myocytes as in control myocytes. Triacylglycerol-loaded myocytes from control rats, prepared by including palmitate in the isolation buffers, were also characterized as having increased basal rates of glycerol output and a reduced lipolytic response to isoproterenol. The level of free fatty acids in diabetic myocytes was 2.8-fold greater than in myocytes from control hearts. The intracellular accumulation of free fatty acids in these quiescent populations of diabetic myocytes may limit the ability of catecholamines to produce a further stimulation of lipolysis.

Blood Aqueous Barrier

ABSTRACT In addition to the previously described permeability disturbance in the blood aqueous barrier of the eye, measured as an increase of the aqueous flare, a series of transitory systemic effects have been recorded following the subcutaneous injection of synthetic α-MSH: marked increase of the free fatty acids in plasma, decrease in the serum calcium level, decrease in the blood pressure, increase in the skin temperature, increased frequency and diminished amplitude of respiration, presence of slow waves in the EEG. There is a correlation between the magnitude of the aqueous flare increase and the increase of free fatty acids in plasma and also between the aqueous flare and the minimum serum calcium level.
