Acinetobacter baumannii Lipopolysaccharide Influences Adipokine Expression in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes by Yuka Unno, Yoshinori Sato, Satoshi Nishida, Akiyo Nakano, Ryuichi Nakano, Tsuneyuki Ubagai, Yasuo Ono

“…We tested the effect of increasing concentrations of A. baumannii-derived LPS (10, 100, or 1000 ng/mL) on the 3T3-L1 adipocyte cell line. Exposure to LPS was found to increase the expression of several adipokines (e.g., MIP-2, MCP-1, TNF-α, IL-6, lipocalin-2, and FABP4) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and significantly reduced the expression of leptin and adiponectin. …”

Heme Oxygenase-1: A Critical Link between Iron Metabolism, Erythropoiesis, and Development by Stuart T. Fraser, Robyn G. Midwinter, Birgit S. Berger, Roland Stocker

“…Linked with this pressure is the necessity of the embryo to obtain and transport iron, synthesize hemoglobin, and then dispose of the potentially toxic heme via the stress-induced protein heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1, encoded by Hmox1 in the mouse). Null mutation of Hmox1 results in significant embryonic mortality as well as anemia and defective iron recycling. …”
