Decellularized tissues provide biological cues owing to the wealth of structural and regulatory factors that promote angiogenesis, adipogenesis, and myogenesis and facilitate neurite outgrowth. Here, we demonstrated the advantages of decellularized adipose tissue (adipoECM) over defined collagen-based biomaterials for host tissue integration. Three batches of human adipose tissue were decellularized using a rapid decellularization protocol and analyzed using mass spectrometry. To assess the biological activity of the decellularized materials, adipoECM and a reference standard of care biomaterial (Integra®DRT, also containing collagen I and glycosaminoglycans) were implanted subcutaneously, but far from the wound bed (in anatomical potential spaces) of immunocompetent BALB/c mice. The mice were euthanized in the acute (1 day) and chronic (day 60) inflammatory reaction phases, followed by biomaterial excision and Masson’s trichrome immunohistofluorescence imaging of the paraffin-embedded specimens. Each batch of processed tissue passed a quality control check, showing a low level of donor genomic DNA, lack of nuclei, lipids, endotoxins, and bacterial contamination. Mass spectrometry revealed that all batches of decellularized tissue mainly contained collagen I and, to a lesser degree, collagen III, collagen IV, collagen V, laminin, fibrillin, fibronectin, tenascin, and elastin. No acute inflammatory reaction was observed in either material one day post-transplantation. At 60 days post-implantation, different cell types were detected in adipoECM specimens, whereas Integra®DRT remained acellular. Additional immunohistochemical staining of adipoECM revealed CD31-positive cells in the blood vessels. Mesenchymal (CD90 positive) and myeloid (CD14 positive) cells were also detected. Primary cell types involved in soft tissue healing and remodeling were found in the adipoECM-treated group. The ingrowth of blood vessels and mesenchymal cells confirmed the effective integration of adipoECM with host tissues. Our results demonstrate that decellularized adipose tissue implanted away from the wound bed possesses contextual biological activities that promote efficient integration with host tissues.
The aim of this study was to characterize further the interaction between cyclic AMP (cAMP) and insulin binding and action. Rat adipocytes were preincubated at 37 degrees C for 20 min, and after energy depletion with KCN, cell-surface 125I-insulin binding was measured. As recently reported [Eriksson, Lönnroth & Smith (1992) Diabetes 41, 707-714], preincubation with insulin rapidly increased the number of cell-surface insulin binding sites up to approximately 5-fold through recruitment within the plasma membrane. This was completely abolished by the presence of 4 mM-N6-monobutyryl cAMP (a non-hydrolysable cAMP analogue) or 1 microM-isoprenaline, without any apparent change in receptor internalization. Insulin-stimulated receptor tyrosine kinase activity was attenuated by the cAMP analogue only if the exposure of the adipocytes was prolonged to 60 min. The cellular sensitivity to insulin, assessed as 3-O-methylglucose uptake, was markedly decreased by the cAMP analogue, and this could be attributed to the impaired cell-surface binding. However, evidence for post-receptor interactions between cAMP and insulin was also found: an impairment of maximal insulin-stimulated 3-O-methylglucose transport and a delay in the rate of activation of the glucose transport system by insulin. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that beta-adrenergic stimulation and elevated cAMP levels markedly impair the ability of insulin to enhance cell-surface insulin-binding capacity. This novel interaction may be an important mechanism for the cellular insensitivity to insulin produced by cAMP.
Effects of insulin and phorbol esters on subcellular distribution of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms were examined in rat adipocytes. Both agonists provoked rapid decreases in cytosolic, and/or increases in membrane, immunoreactive PKC-alpha, PKC-beta, PKC-gamma, and PKC-epsilon. Effects of phorbol esters on PKC-alpha redistribution to the plasma membrane, however, were much greater than those of insulin. In contrast, insulin, but not phorbol esters, stimulated the translocation of PKC-beta to the plasma membrane, and provoked changes in PKC-zeta redistribution. Neither agonist altered subcellular distribution of PKC-delta, which was detected only in membrane fractions. Our findings indicate that insulin and phorbol esters have overlapping and distinctly different effects on the subcellular redistribution of specific PKC isoforms.
