In the present study, we investigated whether cholecystokinin (CCK) or its structurally related peptide gastrin participates in long term regulation of adipocyte leptin secretion. The levels of circulating leptin observed after 2 and 6 h of refeeding in 18-h fast rats were significantly lowered by injection of the specific gastrin/CCK-B receptor antagonist YM022 at doses that did not affect feeding behavior. Moreover, in normally fed animals, circulating leptin was markedly decreased by chronic injection of YM022 (from 4 ± 0.6 to 2.1 ± 0.5 ng/ml). Consistent with these observations, YM022 treatment decreased leptin messenger RNA (mRNA) levels and increased the leptin content in rat epididymal fat tissue. Rat adipocytes exclusively contain gastrin/CCK-B receptor mRNA, but not CCK-A receptor mRNA. Furthermore, adipocyte membranes bound [125I]CCK-8 in a saturable manner, with kinetics consistent with a single class of high affinity sites with a Kd of 0.2 nM. These data argue for a physiological role for the CCK-B/gastrin receptor in adipocyte leptin regulation. We therefore propose that gastrin is involved in long term regulation of leptin expression and secretion in rat fat tissues through activation of an adipocyte gastrin/CCK-B receptor.

THE GASTROINTESTINAL polypeptide hormones gastrin and cholecystokinin (CCK) are related peptides that share the same C-terminal sequence that carries the biological message. Eating a meal stimulates gastrin secretion from G cells in the antral part of the stomach (1) and CCK secretion from duodenal I cells (2, 3, 4, 5). Both peptides activate the gastrin/CCK-B receptor, whereas only CCK activates the CCK-A receptor (6). In 1973, Gibbs and co-workers first reported that CCK, a brain-gut peptide (7, 8), suppressed food intake in rats, with the animals exhibiting the entire normal behavioral sequence of satiety (9). Further studies were also consistent with a physiological role for peripheral CCK in short term regulation of food intake (for review, see. Ref. 10). The effect is initiated by feeding, triggered by signals originating from the gastrointestinal tract and mediated by the vagus nerve (11, 12).

Leptin, the product of the ob gene, was identified as an adipocyte-secreted protein (13). It is secreted into the blood by fat tissue to inform the brain about the adipocyte mass and thereby control appetite and body weight homeostasis (14, 15, 16). In contrast to that of CCK, the satiety effect induced by circulating leptin is only effective in the long term. This effect requires leptin cross the blood-brain barrier (17) to reach specific hypothalamic receptors (18, 19), which, in turn, modulate the action of a set of brain neuropeptides (20, 21), including neuropeptide Y (22). In addition, it was reported that leptin can act with CCK through peripheral vagal pathways to reduce short term food intake in mice (23, 24). We recently reported that the stomach is another site of leptin production. This gastric pool is quickly mobilized (within 15 min) by feeding or by exogenous CCK in the absence of any apparent change in epididymal leptin content (25). The absence of rapid effect of CCK on adipocyte leptin is consistent with the storage of leptin, or its lack of storage, by the adipose cells (26). However, it remained unclear whether that CCK and the structurally similar gastrin could regulate adipocyte leptin synthesis and secretion over longer periods of time. Here, we address this question using animal experiments. We show that endogenous gastrin/CCK are involved in long term regulation of leptin expression and secretion in rat fat tissues through activation of an adipocyte gastrin/CCK-B receptor.

Animals, tissues, and leptin measurements
Male Wistar rats (250–350 g), housed in a room at 23 C with free access to food and water, were used. The animals were accustomed to eat their food (laboratory Purina chow pellets, Ralston Purina Co., St. Louis, MO) between 1000–1800 h when food was withdrawn until the next morning, but with water available ad libitum. Rats were habituated to this feeding schedule until their food consumption was stabilized (8 days).

A group of rats was allowed to feed on preweighed standard laboratory pellet chow for 15-min, 2-h, or 6-h periods. Before feeding, the animals were ip injected with vehicle (control) or CCK-B receptor antagonist, YM022 (27), in saline containing 1% dimethylsulfoxide. At appropriate times, food was weighed, and intake was determined. They were anesthetized, blood was collected from the abdominal aorta and centrifuged, and plasma was removed and stored at -20 C until leptin assays. The stomach and epididymal adipose tissues were removed. The stomach was opened, rinsed with saline, and flattened on a glass plate with the mucosa upwards, and the epithelium was scraped off and weighed. The fundic mucosa scrapings and epididymal fat pad tissue were homogenized using a glass-Teflon homogenizer in Krebs-Ringer buffer supplemented with HEPES containing 0.1 mg/ml phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride and 200 IU/ml aprotinin. The homogenates were centrifuged at 10,000 x g for 10 min. The resulting supernatant for fundic mucosa, and the infranatant for fat pad tissue were used for leptin determinations.

In another set of experiments, normally fed rats were chronically injected once a day for 5 days with vehicle (control) or YM022. Daily food intake was determined. On day 6, the animals were killed, and blood was collected for leptin assay.

Plasma, fundic, and epididymal fat pad leptin were estimated using a mouse leptin RIA kit from Linco Research, Inc. (St. Charles, MO). Plasma glucose was determined enzymatically by hexokinase method (Autoanalyzer, Koné Laboratory, Evry, France). Plasma insulin concentrations were measured using a rat insulin RIA kit from Linco Research, Inc.

Evidence of CCK receptors on adipose tissue of various origins
RT-PCR. Total RNA from stomach epithelium scrapings and rat white adipose tissue of various origins was assayed by RT-PCR. Briefly, total RNA was extracted using Trizol reagent according the manufacturer’s procedure (Life Technologies, Inc., France). First strand complementary DNA was prepared from 4 µg total RNA using murine reverse transcriptase according to Pharmacia Biotech’s procedure. The PCR was performed using the following primers: for CCK-A receptor (28): forward, 5'-ATGCTCATCATCGTGGTCCTG-3'; and reverse, 5'-AGTGTACACGGGGTAGGGCAC-3'; and for CCK-B receptor (29, 30): forward, 5'-GGCGTGGTCGACAGCCTTCTTATG-3'; and reverse, 5'-CAGGAAGCGGCACATGTTCGCCG-3'. After sample denaturation at 94 C for 3 min, PCR was carried out for 40 cycles consisting of 1 min of denaturation at 94 C, 1 min of annealing at 60 C, and 2 min of extension at 72 C. The amplification was terminated by a 10-min final extension step at 72 C. In controls, reverse transcriptase was omitted, and H2O was added. Samples were analyzed by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis ethidium bromide staining to confirm the amplification of the expected 480- and 532-bp products for the CCK-B and CCK-A receptor genes, respectively, and 606 bp for the ß-actin gene.

[125I]CCK8 binding studies. Male Wistar rats (250–350 g) were killed by a blow on the head. Epididymal and perirenal adipose tissues were removed, cut into small pieces, and incubated with 0.1% collagenase in Krebs-Ringer buffer supplemented with 20 mM HEPES, 1.4 mM CaCl2, and 3% BSA, pH 7.4, for 60 min at 37 C in a shaking water bath. Then, the isolated adipocytes were separated by filtration on a 200-µm mesh and washed three times (400 x g, 5 min). The adipocytes were lysed at room temperature in hypotonic medium containing 2 mM Tris-HCl, 2.5 mM MgCl2 1 mM KHCO3, and 100 µM EGTA, pH 7.5, then centrifuged for 15 min at 40,000 x g at 15 C. The pellet was resuspended in a binding buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris-HCl and 0.5 mM MgCl2 (pH 7.5) and again centrifuged (40,000 x g for 15 min at 4 C). The resulting pellet was resuspended in binding buffer and stored at -80 C until subsequent binding studies. Fifty-microgram aliquots of membrane proteins were each incubated for 60 min at 30 C in a final volume of 0.3 ml of assay buffer containing one of a series of concentrations of [125I]CCK8 (SA, ~2000 Ci/mmol; Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Orsay, France). The suspensions were chilled on ice and centrifuged for 1 min at 10,000 x g. The pellets were washed twice with 1 ml cold binding buffer and counted in a {gamma}-counter. Specific binding was defined as the difference in binding in the absence and presence of 1 µM YM022 and corresponded to more than 70% of the total binding (n = 5 experiments). The computer program EBDA/LIGAND was used for data analysis.

Northern blot analysis
Total RNA was extracted from the epididymal adipose tissues as described above. RNA was electrophoresed on 1.2% formaldehyde agarose gels, blotted, and fixed onto nylon filters (Hybond-N, Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, France). Northern blots were prehybridized at 65 C for 4 h in a hybridization cocktail. Ob probe (provided by Dr. M. Guerre-Millo, INSERM U465, Paris, France) was radiolabeled with [32P]deoxy-CTP (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech) and hybridized at 65 C for 18 h. Northern blots were rinsed twice in 2 x SSC (standard saline citrate)-0.1% SDS containing 0.3 M sodium chloride and 0.03 M sodium citrate at 65 C for 30 min and twice in 0.1 x SSC-0.1% SDS at 65 C for 20 min. A glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) probe (provided by Dr. C. Guillouf, Institut Curie, Paris, France) was used to monitor messenger RNA (mRNA) integrity and quantity. Biomax MX film (Eastman Kodak Co., France) was used for autoradiography. The signal intensity was analyzed by a bioimaging analyzer (BIOCOM 200, Les Ulis, France). The relative amount of ob mRNA was determined as the ratio of the density of the ob band to that of the GAPDH band.

Statistical analysis
Data are expressed as the mean ± 1 SEM. If ANOVA was significant, a Tukey-Kramer multiple comparisons test was used. The differences were considered significant for P < 0.05.

Leptin, insulin, and glucose levels in blood and leptin contents in tissues upon refeeding in rats
An 18-h fast resulted in a plasma leptin level 20% of that in control animals. The plasma leptin level was increased 2.5-fold after 15 min of refeeding and was fully restored by 6 h. As previously found, this early increase in plasma leptin was mirrored by an early decrease in gastric leptin content. After 2 h of refeeding there was a substantial increase in fundic and epididymal levels of leptin consistent with leptin neosynthesis in both tissues (Table 1Go).

In parallel, circulating insulin levels significantly increased after 15 min of refeeding, then decreased after 2 and 6 h of refeeding to reach a value 2-fold higher than that in 18-h fasted animals. Plasma glucose was increased after 15 min of refeeding and remained stable after 2 and 6 h of refeeding (Table 1Go).

Effect of YM022 on plasma and epididymal fat tissue leptin
Intraperitoneal injection of YM022 into 18-h fasted rats dose dependently prevented the increase in leptin levels in plasma after a 2-h refeeding. The inhibition was 20% and 50% (P < 0.01 vs. control) with 0.1 and 1 mg/kg YM022, respectively, and was maintained for 6 h (Fig. 1aGo). However, food intake was not affected by this treatment (not shown). YM022 treatment markedly increased epididymal leptin content after refeeding, by 30% at 2 h and 65% at 6 h (Fig. 1bGo). In these experimental conditions, circulating insulin and glucose levels were not significantly different in the various groups refed with and without YM022 (data not shown).

In control (normally fed) animals, injection of 3 mg/kg YM022 once a day for 5 days resulted in a decrease in plasma leptin levels (Fig. 2aGo). Neither daily food intake (Fig. 2bGo) nor body weight (not shown) was significantly affected. These effects of YM022 suggest an regulation of the ob gene by endogenous gastrin.

This was assessed by Northern analysis of total RNA extracted from the epididymal fat pad of rats treated with or without the CCK-B receptor antagonist. As shown in Fig. 3Go, the amount of leptin mRNA in epididymal fat tissue was very much lower after an 18-h fast than that in controls. The level returned to control levels after 2 h of refeeding. However, prior treatment with YM022 dose dependently inhibited this recovery.

Evidence for CCK-B/gastrin receptor on rat fat tissues
We next examined whether the adipose cells are endowed with CCK receptors. Oligonucleotides deduced from the rat CCK-A (28) and human gastrin/CCK-B receptor (29, 30) genes were used for RT-PCR screening of total RNA from various adipose tissues. One gastrin/CCK-B RT-PCR product with the expected size of 480 bp was detected in all of the adipose tissues tested (Fig. 4bGo). That this RT-PCR product corresponded to the gastrin/CCK-B receptor gene transcript was confirmed by complementary DNA sequencing (ESGS, Montigny le Bretonneux, France). However, no CCK-A RT-PCR product was found in any fat tissue sample compared with the stomach as positive control (Fig. 4aGo).

At the protein level, we performed a [125I]CCK8 assay to assess the presence of the receptor protein. The adipocyte membranes bound [125I]CCK8 in a saturable manner (Fig. 5Go). Scatchard analysis (Fig. 5Go, inset) indicated a single class of high affinity sites with an equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.21 ± 0.04 nM and a maximal binding capacity of 5.95 ± 0.9 fmol/mg protein.

Our study provides strong evidence that leptin synthesis and secretion in rat adipocytes are regulated by an adipocyte gastrin/CCK-B receptor. Gastrin/CCK-B receptors have been found in the brain (CCK-B), on smooth muscle cells, and on parietal cells (gastrin receptors). However, we report molecular and kinetic data showing that such a receptor is also present on adipose cells. Indeed, transcripts for gastrin/CCK-B receptor were detected in rat fat tissue, and CCK-8 binding to adipocyte membranes was specifically displaced by the selective gastrin/CCK-B receptor antagonist YM022. Furthermore, the value for the equilibrium dissociation constant, Kd, of 0.2 nM is consistent with those reported for the brain (31) and parietal cell gastrin/CCK-B receptors (32, 33). We previously reported that exogenous CCK failed to acutely affect the epididymal fat pad leptin content. This finding is consistent with the current idea that adipocytes do not store leptin (26).

As previously reported (34, 35), we found that adipocyte leptin expression and secretion rose within 2 h of refeeding in 18-h fasted rats, with normal levels recovered after 6 h. Our findings indicate that this refeeding increase is at least partly mediated by a gastrin/CCK-B receptor. The inhibitory effect of the selective antagonist YM022 is consistent with this view. Interestingly, this effect is long lasting, as it was still observed 6 h after the injection. Furthermore, it was maintained for 5 days by chronic (daily) injections. As circulating CCK does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier (36), its putative action on adipocyte leptin may be assumed to be peripheral. However, the fasting plasma CCK levels range from 0.3–2.6 pM, and peak postprandial levels range from 4.6–11.2 pM in humans (37), rats (4, 5, 38), and dogs (39), whereas the values for plasma gastrin are 10- to 20-fold higher (40). Furthermore, exogenous administration of gastrin increases circulating levels of leptin in fasted rats (Buyse, M., S. Attoub, and A. Bado, unpublished results). Therefore, it is likely that gastrin is the primary physiological stimulus of the adipocyte gastrin/CCK-B receptor (Kd = 0.2 nM).

In conclusion, we provide another element for the understanding of leptin regulation by gastrointestinal hormones; in addition to the fast CCK mobilization of the gastric leptin store as previously reported (25), gastrin appears to mediate a delayed stimulation of adipocyte leptin secretion through a gastrin/CCK-B receptor. These in vivo data argue for a physiological role of the gastrin/CCK-B receptor in leptin regulation in the rat. It is very likely, but not proven to date, that both effects act to stop food intake and maintain the energy balance. It is also possible that gastrin/CCK regulation of adipocyte leptin could have another, as yet unidentified, function.
