Abstract: 
Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 is an adipocyte-secreted protein upregulated in obesity which promotes adipose tissue development. Furthermore, the proinflammatory adipocytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) and interleukin (IL)-6 induce insulin resistance, and plasma concentrations are increased during weight gain. In the current study, the impact of TNF alpha and IL-6 on TIMP-1 mRNA and protein expression was determined in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Interestingly, TNFa and IL-6 induced TIMP-1 protein secretion more than 3- and 2-fold, respectively. Furthermore, TIMP-1 mRNA was upregulated in a time- and dose-dependent fashion. Inhibitor experiments suggested that nuclear factor kappa B and p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase are involved in both, basal and adipocytokine-induced TIMP-1 expression. Moreover, the thiazolidinedione troglitazone partly reversed TNF alpha- but not IL-6-induced TIMP-I synthesis. Taken together, we demonstrate that TIMP-1 expression is selectively upregulated in fat cells by proinflammatory adipocytokines and might play a role in maintaining adipose tissue mass in obesity.
