pubmed:abstractText |
Clones encoding an atypical beta-adrenergic receptor were isolated from a rat brown adipose tissue cDNA library. This receptor expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells displays a low affinity for beta-adrenergic antagonists and a high affinity for BRL 37344, an agonist that selectively stimulates lipolysis in adipose tissue. The rank order of potency for agonist-mediated increases in intracellular cAMP in transfected cells correlates with that for agonist-mediated stimulation of lipolysis in brown adipocytes. Northern blot analysis demonstrates that this receptor subtype is expressed only in brown and white adipose tissue where it represents the predominant beta-receptor subtype. The amount of atypical beta-adrenergic receptor present in adipose tissue of obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats is reduced by up to 71% as compared with lean (Fa/Fa) control animals. These findings suggest that a change in the expression of this beta-adrenergic receptor subtype may play a role in obesity.
