Adenovirus-induced hyperleptinemia causes rapid disappearance of body fat in normal rats, presumably by up-regulating fatty acid oxidation within white adipocytes. To determine the role of peroxisomal proliferation-activated receptor (PPAR)alpha expression, which was increased during the rapid loss of fat, we infused adenovirus-leptin into PPARalpha(-/-) and PPARalpha(+/+) mice. Despite similar degrees of hyperleptinemia and reduction in food intake, epididymal fat pad weight declined 55% in wild-type but only 6% in PPARalpha(-/-) mice; liver triacylglycerol fell 39% in the wild-type group but was unchanged in PPAR(-/-) mice. Carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 mRNA rose 52% in the wild-type mice but did not increase in PPARalpha(-/-) mice. PPARgamma coactivator-1 a rose 3-fold in the fat and 46% in the liver of wild-type mice but was unchanged in PPARalpha(-/-) mice. Although AMP-activated protein kinase could not be implicated in the lipopenic actions of hyperleptinemia, acetyl CoA carboxylase protein was reduced in the liver of wild-type but not in PPARalpha(-/-) mice. Thus, in PPARalpha(-/-) mice, up-regulation of carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 mRNA in fat, down-regulation of acetyl CoA carboxylase in liver, and up-regulation of PPARgamma coactivator-1 a mRNA in both tissues are abolished, as is the reduction in their triacylglycerol content.
