To examine the thermogenic significance of the
classical uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1), the thermogenic potential of
brown adipocytes isolated from UCP1-ablated mice was investigated.
Ucp1( / ) cells had a basal metabolic rate identical to
wild-type; the mitochondria within them were coupled to the same
degree. The response to norepinephrine in wild-type cells was robust
( 10-fold increase in thermogenesis); Ucp1( / ) cells only responded 3% of
this. Ucp1( / ) cells were as potent as
wild-type in norepinephrine-induced cAMP accumulation and lipolysis and
had a similar mitochondrial respiratory complement. In wild-type cells,
fatty acids induced a thermogenic response similar to norepinephrine,
but fatty acids (and retinoate) were practically without effect in
Ucp1( / ) cells. It is concluded that no
other adrenergically induced thermogenic mechanism exists in brown
adipocytes except that mediated by UCP1 and that entopic expression of
UCP1 does not lead to overt innate uncoupling, and it is suggested that
fatty acids are transformed to an intracellular physiological activator
of UCP1. High expression of UCP2 and UCP3 in the tissue was not
associated with an overt innate highly uncoupled state of mitochondria
within the cells, nor with an ability of norepinephrine or endo- or
exogenous fatty acids to induce uncoupled respiration in the cells.
Thus, UCP1 remains the only physiologically potent thermogenic
uncoupling protein in these cells.
