Structure of WNT inhibitor adenomatosis polyposis coli down-regulated 1 (APCDD1), a cell-surface lipid-binding protein.

ABSTRACT: Diverse extracellular proteins negatively regulate WNT signaling. One such regulator is adenomatosis polyposis coli down-regulated 1 (APCDD1), a conserved single-span transmembrane protein. In response to WNT signaling in a variety of tissues, APCDD1 transcripts are highly up-regulated. We have determined the three-dimensional structure of the extracellular domain of APCDD1, and this structure reveals an unusual architecture consisting of two closely apposed β-barrel domains (ABD1 and ABD2). ABD2, but not ABD1, has a large hydrophobic pocket that accommodates a bound lipid. The APCDD1 ECD can also bind to WNT7A, presumably via its covalently bound palmitoleate, a modification that is common to all WNTs and is essential for signaling. This work suggests that APCDD1 functions as a negative feedback regulator by titrating WNT ligands at the surface of responding cells.

Project description:Impaired adipogenic differentiation during diet-induced obesity (DIO) promotes adipocyte hypertrophy and inflammation, thereby contributing to metabolic disease. Adenomatosis polyposis coli down-regulated 1 (APCDD1) has recently been identified as an inhibitor of Wnt signaling, a key regulator of adipogenic differentiation. Here we report a novel role for APCDD1 in adipogenic differentiation via repression of Wnt signaling and an epigenetic linkage between miR-130 and APCDD1 in DIO. APCDD1 expression was significantly up-regulated in mature adipocytes compared with undifferentiated preadipocytes in both human and mouse subcutaneous adipose tissues. siRNA-based silencing of APCDD1 in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes markedly increased the expression of Wnt signaling proteins (Wnt3a, Wnt5a, Wnt10b, LRP5, and β-catenin) and inhibited the expression of adipocyte differentiation markers (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ)) and lipid droplet accumulation, whereas adenovirus-mediated overexpression of APCDD1 enhanced adipogenic differentiation. Notably, DIO mice exhibited reduced APCDD1 expression and increased Wnt expression in both subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues and impaired adipogenic differentiation in vitro Mechanistically, we found that miR-130, whose expression is up-regulated in adipose tissues of DIO mice, could directly target the 3'-untranslated region of the APCDD1 gene. Furthermore, transfection of an miR-130 inhibitor in preadipocytes enhanced, whereas an miR-130 mimic blunted, adipogenic differentiation, suggesting that miR-130 contributes to impaired adipogenic differentiation during DIO by repressing APCDD1 expression. Finally, human subcutaneous adipose tissues isolated from obese individuals exhibited reduced expression of APCDD1, C/EBPα, and PPARγ compared with those from non-obese subjects. Taken together, these novel findings suggest that APCDD1 positively regulates adipogenic differentiation and that its down-regulation by miR-130 during DIO may contribute to impaired adipogenic differentiation and obesity-related metabolic disease.
