Abstract (original English)
Platelet-derived growth factor-B (PDGF-B) is a main factor to promote adipose tissue angiogenesis, which is responsible for the tissue expansion in obesity. In this process, PDGF-B induces the dissociation of pericytes from blood vessels; however, its regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we found that stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF1) plays an essential role in this regulatory mechanism. SDF1 mRNA was increased in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) of obese mice. Ex vivo pharmacological analyses using cultured adipose tissue demonstrated that physiological concentrations (1-100 pg/mL) of SDF1 inhibited the PDGF-B-induced pericyte dissociation from vessels via two cognate SDF1 receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR7. In contrast, higher concentrations (> 1 ng/mL) of SDF1 alone caused the dissociation of pericytes via CXCR4, and this effect disappeared in the cultured tissues from PDGF receptor β (PDGFRβ) knockout mice. To investigate the role of SDF1 in angiogenesis in vivo, the effects of anagliptin, an inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) that degrades SDF1, were examined in mice fed a high-fat diet. Anagliptin increased the SDF1 levels in the serum and eWAT. These changes were associated with a reduction of pericyte dissociation and fat accumulation in eWAT. AMD3100, a CXCR4 antagonist, cancelled these anagliptin effects. In flow-cytometry analysis, ana
