Considerable controversy exists in determining the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha ) in obesity. Two purebred congenic strains of PPARalpha -null mice were developed to study the role of this receptor in modulating lipid transport and storage. Weight gain and average body weight in wild-type and PPARalpha -null mice on either an Sv/129 or a C57BL/6N background were not markedly different between genotypes from 3 to 9 months of age. However, gonadal adipose stores were significantly greater in both strains of male and female PPARalpha -null mice. Hepatic accumulation of lipids was greater in both strains and sexes of PPARalpha -null mice compared with wild-type controls. Administration of the peroxisome proliferator WY-14643 caused hepatomegaly, alterations in mRNAs encoding proteins that regulate lipid metabolism, and reduced serum triglycerides in a PPARalpha -dependent mechanism. Constitutive differences in serum cholesterol and triglycerides in PPARalpha -null mice were found between genetic backgrounds. Results from this work establish that PPARalpha is a critical modulator of lipid homeostasis in two congenic mouse lines. This study demonstrates that disruption of the murine gene encoding PPARalpha results in significant alterations in constitutive serum, hepatic, and adipose tissue lipid metabolism. However, an overt, obese phenotype in either of the two congenic strains was not observed. In contrast to earlier published work, this study establishes that PPARalpha is not associated with obesity in mice.
