Abstract:
Background The enhance of differentiation of orbital preadipocyte is a main factor for pathogenesis of thyroid associated ophthalmopathy(TAO).Experiment has proved that orbital preadipocyte can differentiate into mature adipocyte expressing resistin,and resistin is a adipocyte factor with biological activity.Objective The present study is to investigate the effects of recombinant human resistin on differentiation of orbital preadipocytes derived from TAO patients orbital tissues.Methods Orbital adipose tissue was obtained from 10 eyes with TAO during the orbital decompression surgery.Orbital adipose tissue of the normal group was obtained from 5 removed eyes during the surgery due to different reasons.Preadipocytes were isolated and cultured using expand culture method.The 2-5 generations of preadipocytes were identified by oil red O staining under the light microscope.0,10,25,50,100ng/mL of recombinant human resistin were added into medium in the first day after differentiation of cells.The expression of PPARγ mRNA in differentiated adipocytes were detected by reverse trancripaton PCR(RT PCR).Results The differentiation of preadipocyte presented the similar procedure and outcome between the TAO group and normal group.Differentiated adipocyte was stained into the jacinth by oil red O.The expression of PPARγ mRNA in differentiated cells was gradually declined with the increase of concentration of recombinant human resistin (F=241.341,P<0.01).A dose dependent inhibitory effect was detected in the expression of PPARγ mRNA.The weakest expression of PPARγ mRNA in differentiated cells was 100ng/mL resistin group.Conclusion The recombinant human resistin has an inhibitory effect on the differentiation of orbital preadipocytes by reducing the expression of adipose related genes.Resistin is probably a new research approach to treatment of TAO.
