15-Deoxy-Delta(12,14)-prostaglandin J(2) (15d-PGJ(2)) has been identified as a natural ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma to promote adipogenesis. However, it remains elusive about the ability of PPAR gamma-expressing adipocytes to produce PGJ(2) series and the role in the life cycle of adipocytes. Here, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specific for 15d-PGJ(2). The analysis using this method revealed the increase in the endogenous synthesis of immunoreactive 15d-PGJ(2) in cultured adipocytes during the maturation phase. Further studies using cyclooxygenase inhibitors clarified the contribution of endogeous 15d-PGJ(2) produced by mature adipocytes to upregulation of fat storage in an autocrine manner.
