Inhibiting adipose tissue M1 cytokine expression decreases DPP4 activity and insulin resistance in a type 2 diabetes mellitus mouse model.

ABSTRACT: Adipose tissue inflammation is a major cause of the pathogenesis of obesity and comorbidities. To study the involvement of M1/M2 cytokine expression of adipose tissue in the regulatory mechanisms of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) and insulin resistance in diabetes, stromal vascular fractions (SVFs) were purified from inguinal adipose tissue of diabetic (Leprdb/db) and non-diabetic (Lepr+/+) mice followed by analysis of M1/M2 cytokine expression. SVFs of Leprdb/db mice exhibited increased TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, CCL2, and DPP4 mRNA expression but decreased IL-10 mRNA expression. Plasma from Leprdb/db mice induced TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, CCL2, and DPP4 mRNA expression and plasma from Lepr+/+ mice induced IL-10 mRNA expression in SVFs from Leprdb/db mice. Injection of Lepr+/+ plasma into the adipose t
