Embodiment 1
[0239] Example 1 NE-induced thermogenic response of brown adipocytes
[0240] The mitochondrial temperature detection method based on rhodamine B methyl ester (RhB-ME) and rhodamine 800 (Rh800) is used to detect the heat production in cells (for specific methods, please refer to: New temperature-sensitive fluorescent compounds and their applications, patent application number 201410850735.3 ). In short, there are a large number of mitochondria in brown adipocytes, which are the main places for generating heat in cells. Using the mitochondrial temperature measurement method to study the heat production of brown adipocytes, a large number of mitochondrial heat production can be obtained at the single-cell level. Data, thus reflecting the thermogenesis of brown adipocytes. Fluorescent dyes RhB-ME and Rh800 can be located in the mitochondria of brown fat cells. The fluorescence intensity of RhB-ME changes with temperature, while the fluorescence intensity of Rh800 is basically co...
Embodiment 2
[0243] Example 2 NE activates the ATP-dependent proton pump (H + -ATPase)
[0244] The primary cultured brown adipocytes after electroporation expressed the ATP-sensitive fluorescent protein, placed in Tyrode solution, stimulated with norepinephrine, and the FRET signal of the ATP-sensitive fluorescent protein was observed and imaged in real time by confocal laser. Graphical data analysis is then performed.
[0245] To test whether NE activates the ATP-dependent proton pump (H + -ATPase), using cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ATP-sensitive fluorescent proteins AT1.03 and mitAT1.03 (Imamura et al., 2009), to detect changes in cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ATP when NE stimulated brown adipocytes ( figure 2 , A-E). It was found that 0.1μM NE stimulated brown adipocytes to cause a decrease in cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ATP, suggesting that NE stimulated activation of a certain ATPase (ATPase). Considering that only mitochondrial complex V of mitochondrial complexes I-V can c...
Embodiment 3
[0246] Example 3 Oligomycin or EGCG combined with NE can significantly improve the heat production efficiency of brown adipocytes
[0247] Primary cultured brown adipocytes stained with rhodamine B methyl ester (RhB-ME) and rhodamine 800 (Rh800) were placed in Tyrode solution, co-stimulated with norepinephrine and mitochondrial complex V function inhibitor, laser Confocal real-time observation and imaging of thermosensitive and mitochondrial membrane voltage signals, followed by graphic data analysis.
[0248] If it is mitochondrial complex V that causes the hypothermia of NE-induced brown adipocytes, the present invention speculates that inhibiting the function of mitochondrial complex V should enhance the heat production efficiency of NE-induced brown adipocytes. Experimental results ( image 3 ) showed that NE could induce thermogenesis in almost all brown adipocytes in the presence of oligomycin to inhibit the function of mitochondrial complex V ( image 3 , A-C), the mi...
