Microarray analysis reveals differential effects of conjugated linoleic acid isomers in ritonavir-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes

ABSTRACT: Objective: To quantify changes in adipogenic gene expression in the presence of ritonavir (RTV) or tenofovir (TDF), and determine whether conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers (cis9,trans11 or trans10,cis12) can mitigate detrimental effects of antiretoviral drugs. Methods: Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 microarray was used to investigate gene expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated with (1) RTV, TDF or ethanol control, or (2) ritonavir +c9,t11-CLA, ritonavir+t10,c12-CLA or ritonavir+DMSO control. RT-PCR validation of Pparg, Adipoq and Retn was carried out. ELISA and DNA binding ELISA were used to investigate secreted proteins and Pparg binding to its gene response element. Oil Red O staining was used to investigate triglyceride accumulation. Results: No effect was observed for TDF. Expre
