- W2318583123 abstract "<h3>Objective</h3> To study the effects of β<sub>3</sub>-adrenoceptor (β<sub>3</sub>-AR) activation on atherosclerotic plaque development in aged apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE<sup>-/-</sup>) mice. <h3>Methods</h3> Male ApoE<sup>-/-</sup> mice were fed with a high-fat diet, starting on 10 weeks of age. Starting from 36 weeks of age, mice were randomly treated with atorvastatin (10 mg<sup>·</sup>kg<sup>-1</sup>·d<sup>-1</sup>, by gavage), the β<sub>3</sub>-AR agonist BRL37344 (1.65 or 3.30 μg·kg<sup>-1</sup>, twice a week, by intraperitoneal injection), the β3-AR antagonist SR52390A (50 μg·kg<sup>-1</sup>, twice a week, by intraperitoneal injection), or saline vehicle (twice a week, by intraperitoneal injection) for 12 weeks (n = 10 per group). A group of wild-type C57BL/6J mice receiving normal diet was included as a healthy control. At the end of the 12-week treatment period, serum concentration of lipids were measured. Atherosclerotic plaque in the thoracic aorta was examined using Hematoxy-eosin staining. The extent of fibrosis in the plaque was examined using Masson staining. Western blot was uesed to determine the ApoA-I and SR-BI protein expression. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to determine β<sub>3</sub>-AR mRNA in the white adipose tissue and the ApoA-I, ApoA-II and SR-BI mRNA expression in liver tissue. <h3>Results</h3> High-fat diet in ApoE<sup>-/-</sup> mice led to hyperlipidemia and the area of and the extent of fibrosis in atherosclerotic plaque (P<sub>3</sub>-AR mRNA and SR-BI mRNA were lower, ApoA-I and ApoA-II mRNA were higher in ApoE<sup>-/-</sup> mice (P<sup>-/-</sup> mice receiving vehicle). Treatment with the β<sub>3</sub>-AR agonist BRL37344 decreased serum concentration of triglyceride, total cholesterol and non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol. The treatment increased high density lipoprotein cholesterol, downregulated of ApoA-I, ApoA-II and SR-BI expression and upregulated the β<sub>3</sub>-AR mRNA expression (P<sup>-/-</sup> mice receiving vehicle). Similar to atorvastatin, BRL37344 treatment dose-dependently reduced the plaque area and collagen content (P<sup>-/-</sup> mice receiving vehicle at a dose of 3.30 but not 1.65 μg·kg<sup>-1</sup>). Treatment with the β<sub>3</sub>-AR antagonist SR52390A did not affect any parameters (P > 0.05 for all measures vs. ApoE<sup>-/-</sup> mice receiving vehicle). <h3>Conclusions</h3> β<sub>3</sub>-AR agonist impeded the progression of atherosclerosis in ApoE<sup>-/-</sup> mice, possibly through improvement of lipid profile, ApoA-I, ApoA-II and SR-BI mRNA." @default.
