Acrp30/adiponectin is an
adipocyte-specific secretory protein that has recently been implicated
as a mediator of systemic insulin sensitivity with liver and muscle as
target organs. Acrp30 is found as two forms in serum, as a lower
molecular weight trimer-dimer and a high molecular weight
complex. Little is know about the regulation and significance of these
Acrp30 complexes in serum and about the events that lead to the
generation of the bioactive ligand. Here, we show that there is a
profound sexual dimorphism of Acrp30 levels and complex distribution in
serum. Female mice display significantly higher levels of the high
molecular weight complex in serum than males. In both females and
males, levels of the high molecular weight complex are significantly
reduced in response to a systemic increase of insulin. The ratio of the two complexes is restored upon normalization of glucose levels. Structurally, we show that oligomer formation of Acrp30 critically depends on disulfide bond formation mediated by Cys-39. Mutation of
Cys-39 results in trimers that are subject to proteolytic cleavage in
the collagenous domain. Surprisingly, Acrp30(C39S) or wild-type Acrp30 treated with dithiothreitol are significantly more bioactive than the higher order oligomeric forms of the protein with respect to
reduction of serum glucose levels. Furthermore, treatment of primary
hepatocytes with trimeric and higher order forms of Acrp30 confirms
that the increased bioactivity seen in vivo is reflected in
an augmented potency to reduce glucose output in the presence of
gluconeogenic stimuli. Combined, these results shed new light on the
regulation of this complex protein and suggest a new model for in
vivo activation of the protein, implicating a serum reductase activity.
