Abstract (original English)

PDZRN3, a member of the PDZRN (or LNX) family of proteins, is essential for the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into myotubes, but it plays an inhibitory role in the differentiation of these cells into osteoblasts. Given that mesenchymal stem cells also differentiate into adipocytes, we examined the possible role of PDZRN3 in adipogenesis in mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. The expression of PDZRN3 decreased at both the mRNA and protein levels during adipogenic differentiation. RNAi-mediated depletion of PDZRN3 enhanced the differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells into adipocytes as assessed on the basis of lipid accumulation. The upregulation of aP2 and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP)-β during adipocyte differentiation was also enhanced in the PDZRN3-depleted cells, as was the induction of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ), an upstream regulator of aP2 and C/EBPα, at both the mRNA and protein levels. Among transcription factors that control the expression of PPARγ, we found that STAT5b, but not STAT5a, was upregulated in PDZRN3-depleted cells at both mRNA and protein levels. Tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT5b, but not that of STAT5a, was also enhanced at an early stage of differentiation by PDZRN3 depletion. In addition, the expression of C/EBPβ during the induction of differentiation was enhanced at the mRNA and protein levels in PDZRN3-depleted cells. O
