Elevated plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 observed during insulin resistance has been connected with an excessive PAI-1 adipose tissue secretion mainly by visceral fat. Our aim was to compare the localization of PAI-1 in human visceral and subcutaneous fats. PAI-1 secretion was also investigated in vitro during human adipocyte differentiation. PAI-1 antigen and mRNA were localized in the stromal area of the tissue and were also present in a few CD14-positive monocytes, in direct contact with adipocytes. In addition, in subcutaneous tissue, PAI-1 mRNA contents, determined by using real-time polymerase chain reaction, were higher in the stromal fraction than in the adipocyte fraction. PAI-1 mRNA-positive cells were 5-fold more frequent in the visceral area than in the subcutaneous stromal area (P=0.004). Such a difference was also observed for PAI-1 mRNA content between both whole adipose tissues. In contrast to leptin, during adipocyte differentiation, PAI-1 secretion did not follow adipocyte maturation. In situ hybridization in culture did not reveal PAI-1 mRNA in lipid-filled cells. Our results demonstrate that PAI-1 production is mainly due to stromal cells, which were more numerous in the visceral than in the subcutaneous depot. These results could explain the strong relationship observed between circulating PAI-1 levels and the accumulation of visceral fat.
