Adipokine Protein Expression Pattern in Growth Hormone Deficiency Predisposes to the Increased Fat Cell Size and the Whole Body Metabolic Derangements

Abstract: Our data demonstrate that GHD modulates adipokine and cytokine protein expression pattern, which might influence the adipose tissue growth and differentiation and predispose to tissue hypoxia, inflammation, and a defect in the whole-body insulin action.

“…Apart from approximately 50% of mature lipid-laden adipocytes it contains various stromal cells including preadipocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, pluripotent stem cells and immune cells which substantially influence its function (Bjorntorp 1974;Sethi & Vidal-Puig 2007;Divoux & Clement 2011). Extreme enlargement of the fat cell size, such as we have recently observed in individuals with growth hormone deficiency, is perhaps the best early marker of the obesity relatedmetabolic disease development (Ukropec et al 2008a) (Fig. 1.).…”

“…All these hormonal factors themselves act in interaction: for instance, GH deficiency modulates adipokine and cytokine protein expression pattern, which might influence adipose tissue growth and differentiation and predispose to a defect in the whole-body insulin action (Ukropec et al, 2008a). While it was originally thought that adiponectin expression was limited to adipocytes, it is also expressed in mouse skeletal muscles and within differentiated L6 myotubes.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] Common obesity and metabolic syndrome are frequently associated with decreased levels of circulating GH and some beneficial effects of low-dose GH treatment to obese individuals with relative GH deficiency were reported. [5][6][7] Long-term GH supplementation to GH deficient adults has been shown to reverse some of the negative metabolic consequences of GH deficiency and reduce metabolic and cardiovascular morbidity among these patients.…”
