Brown/beige adipocytes, which are derived from skeletal muscle/smooth muscle-lineage cells, consume excess energy as heat through the expression of mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). Previous studies have shown that forced expression of PR/SET domain (PRDM)-16 or early B-cell factor (EBF)-2 induced UCP1-positive adipocytes in C2C12 myogenic cells. Here, we explored the culture conditions to induceUcp1expression in C2C12 cells without introducing exogenous genes. Treatment with rosiglitazone (a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ agonist), GW501516 (a PPARδ agonist), and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-7 for 8 days efficiently increasedUcp1expression in response to treatment with forskolin, an activator of the protein kinase A pathway. BMP7 dose-dependently increased forskolin-inducedUcp1expression in the presence of rosiglitazone and GW501516; however, GW501516 was not required forUcp1induction. Additionally, the structurally related proteins, BMP6 and BMP9, efficiently increased forskolin-inducedUcp1expression in rosiglitazone-treated cells. UCP1 protein was localized in cells with lipid droplets, but adipocytes were not always positive for UCP1. Continuous treatment with BMP7 was needed for the efficient induction ofUcp1by forskolin treatment. Significant expression ofPrdm16was not detected, irrespective of the treatment, and treatment with rosiglitazone, GW501516, and BMP7 did not affect the expression levels ofEbf2. Fibroblast growth factor receptor (Fgfr)-3expression levels were increased by BMP9 in rosiglitazone-treated cells, and molecules that upregulateFgfr3transcription partly overlapped with those that stimulateUcp1transcription. The present results provide basic information on the practical differentiation of myogenic cells to brown adipocytes.
