LYR motif containing 1 (LYRM1) is a novel gene that is abundantly expressed in the adipose tissue of obese subjects and is involved in insulin resistance. In this study, free fatty acids (FFAs) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) are shown to upregulate LYRM1 mRNA expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Conversely, resistin and rosiglitazone exert an inhibitory effect on LYRM1 mRNA expression. These results suggest that the expression of LYRM1 mRNA is affected by a variety of factors that are related to insulin sensitivity. LYRM1 may be an important mediator in the development of obesity-related insulin resistance.
含LYR基序1(LYRM1)是一种新基因,在肥胖受试者的脂肪组织中大量表达,并与胰岛素抵抗有关。在本研究中,游离脂肪酸(FFA)和肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)可上调3T3-L1脂肪细胞中LYRM1 mRNA的表达。相反,抵抗素和罗格列酮对LYRM1 mRNA的表达有抑制作用。这些结果表明,LYRM1 mRNA的表达受多种与胰岛素敏感性相关的因素影响。LYRM1可能是肥胖相关胰岛素抵抗发生发展中的一个重要介质。
