Functional study of amine oxidase copper-containing 1(AOC1)in lipid metabolism
Amine oxidase copper-containing 1(AOC1)is a key member of copper amine oxidase family,which is responsible for deamination oxidation of histamine and putrescine.In recent years,AOC1 has been reported to be associated with various cancers,with its expression levels significantly elevated in certain cancer cells,suggesting its potential role in cancer progression.However,its function in lipid metabolism still remains unclear.Through genetic analysis,we have discovered a potential relationship between AOC1 and lipid metabolism.To further investigate,we generated Aoc1-/-mice and characterized their metabolic phenotypes on both chow diet and high-fat diet(HFD)feeding conditions.On HFD feeding conditions,Aoc1-/-mice exhibited significantly higher fat mass and impaired glucose sensitivity,and lipid accumulation in white adipose tissue and liver was also increased.This study uncovers the potential role of AOC1 in lipid metabolism and its implications in metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes,providing new targets and research directions for treating metabolic diseases.
