Abstract

3T3 L1-cells, which undergo adipose conversion in vitro, possess a stimulus-sensitive H2O2-generating system in their plasma membrane, and its properties are virtually identical with those of the insulin-sensitive human fat-cell oxidase [Krieger-Brauer and Kather (1992) J. Clin. Invest. 89, 1006-1013]. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor I were found to be active stimulators of NADPH-dependent H2O2 generation. Surprisingly, the acidic (a) and basic (b) isoforms of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) as well as the AA and BB homodimers of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) had antagonistic effects on NADPH-dependent H2O2 generation in plasma membranes which were parallelled by corresponding changes in H2O2 accumulation in intact cells. bFGF and PDGF BB (which inhibit NADPH-dependent H2O2 generation) prevented the adipose conversion of 3T3 L1-preadipocytes, and this effect could be reversed by exogenously supplied H2O2. Conversely, aFGF and PDGF AA, which stimulated H2O2 generation, accelerated adipocyte conversion in the presence of insulin and were adipogenic in themselves. Consistently, expression of the adipocyte phenotype induced by insulin, dexamethasone and isobutylmethylxanthine was enhanced in the presence of exogenous hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase, whereas antioxidants, such as N-acetylcysteine or ascorbate, suppressed the process of differentiation. It is concluded that the H2O2 produced in response to hormones and cytokines may contribute to the development and maintenance of the differentiated state.
