Aims3T3-L1 cells are preadipocytes and often used as a model for cellular differentiation to adipocytes; however, the mechanism of this differentiation is not completely understood even in these model cells. In this study, we sought to identify a unique anti-adipogenesis agent from microorganisms and to examine its mechanism of action to gain knowledge and create a tool and/or seed compound for anti-obesity drug discovery research.Main methodScreening for anti-adipogenesis agents from microorganisms was performed using a 3T3-L1 cell differentiation system, and an active compound was isolated. The inhibitory mechanism of the compound was investigated by measuring the expression of key regulators using quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot analysis.Key findingsThe compound with anti-adipogenic activity in 3T3-L1 cells was identified as cineromycin B. Cineromycin B at 50 μg/mL suppressed intracellular lipid accumulation and the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBPα), which are master regulators of adipocyte differentiation. Further investigations showed that cineromycin B increased significantly the mRNA expression of two negative regulators of adipocyte differentiation, Krüppel-like factor (KLF) 2 and KLF3, at an early stage of the differentiation. The results of siRNA transfection experiments indicated that cineromycin B is a unique adipocyte differentiation inhibitor, acting mainly via upregulation of KLF2 and KLF3, and these KLFs may play a role in the early stage of differentiation.SignificanceCineromycin B inhibited adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells mainly via upregulation of KLF2 and KLF3 mRNA expression at an early stage of the differentiation.
