Results:  AngII-induced change in LPL expression mediated by ATR1 in SAT or VAT through different G proteins

…We also examined G proteins involved in the signaling. The inhibitory effect of AngII on LPL expression was reversed by YM25490, an inhibitor of G_q/11 proteins, but not by pertussis toxin (PTX), an inhibitor of G_i/o proteins, in VAT (Fig 2B1). In SAT, the stimulatory effect of AngII was also reversed by YM25490. On the other hand, PTX treatment alone increased the basal activity of LPL expression, and AngII inhibited the activity in PTX-treated cells. Thus, although we should be cautious with the PTX effects possibly due to the existence of endogenous modulators of G_i/o proteins, the AngII-induced stimulatory effect was not observed in the PTX-treated SAT, suggesting the coupling of G_i class of G proteins to ATR1 in SAT. …
