2D and 3D cultures of 3T3-L1 cells were employed in a study of the effects of Omidenepag (OMD), interacting with a non-prostanoid EP2 receptor, on adipogenesis. Upon adipogenesis, the effects on lipid staining, the mRNA expression of adipogenesis-related genes (Pparγ, CEBPa, Ap2, and Glut4) and the extracellular matrix (ECM) including collagen type 1, 4 and 6, and fibronectin, and the size and physical property of 3D organoids were compared between groups that had been treated with EP2 agonists (butaprost and OMD) and PGF2α. Upon adipogenesis, these significantly suppressed lipid staining and the mRNA expression of related genes. EP2 agonists and PGF2α influenced the mRNA expression of ECM in different manners, and these effects were also different between 2 and 3D cultures. Examining the physical properties by a microsqueezer indicated that the solidity of the 3D organoids became significantly lowered upon adipogenesis and these effects were not affected by EP2 agonists. In contrast, 3D organoid stiffness was markedly enhanced by the presence of PGF2α. These observations indicate that EP2 agonists affect the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells in different manners, as compared to PGF2α, suggesting that OMD may not induce PGF2α related orbital fat atrophy, called the deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES).
