Paracrine regulation of angiogenesis and adipocyte differentiation during in vivo adipogenesis.

ABSTRACT: With an increasing incidence of obesity worldwide, rational strategies are needed to control adipogenesis. Growth of any tissue requires the formation of a functional and mature vasculature. To gain mechanistic insight into the link between active adipogenesis and angiogenesis, we developed a model to visualize noninvasively and in real time both angiogenesis and adipogenesis using intravital microscopy. Implanted murine preadipocytes induced vigorous angiogenesis and formed fat pads in a mouse dorsal skin-fold chamber. The newly formed vessels subsequently remodeled into a mature network consisting of arterioles, capillaries, and venules, whereas the preadipocytes differentiated into adipocytes as confirmed by increased aP2 expression. Inhibition of adipocyte differentiation by transfection of preadipocytes with a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma dominant-negative construct not only abrogated fat tissue formation but also reduced angiogenesis. Surprisingly, inhibition of angiogenesis by vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2) blocking antibody not only reduced angiogenesis and tissue growth but also inhibited preadipocyte differentiation. We found that part of this inhibition stems from the paracrine interaction between endothelial cells and preadipocytes and that VEGF-VEGFR2 signaling in endothelial cells, but not preadipocytes, mediates this process. These findings reveal a reciprocal regulation of adipogenesis and angiogenesis, and suggest that blockade of VEGF signaling can inhibit in vivo adipose tissue formation.

Project description:The yak (Bos grunniens) is subjected to nutritional deficiency during the whole winter grazing season; deciphering the adipose metabolism and energy homeostasis under cold and nutrients stress conditions could be a novel way to understand the specific mechanism of energy metabolism. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have elucidated that they play a key role in many biological events, but the regulatory function of adipose development remains mostly unknown. Therefore, the expression pattern of circRNAs were identified for the first time during yak adipocyte differentiation to gain insight into their potential functional involvement in bovine adipogenesis. We detected 7203 circRNA candidates, most of them contained at least two exons, and multiple circRNA isoforms could be generated from one parental gene. Analysis of differential expression circRNAs displayed that 136 circRNAs were differentially expressed at day 12 (Ad) after adipocyte differentiation, compared with the control at day 0 (Pread 0), while 7 circRNAs were detected on day 2. Sanger sequencing validated that six circRNAs had head-to-tail junction, and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) results revealed that the expression patterns of ten circRNAs were consistent with their expression levels from RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data. We further predicted the networks of circRNA-miRNA-gene based on miRNAs sponging by circRNAs, in which genes were participated in the adipocyte differentiation-related signaling pathways. After that, we constructed several adipocyte differentiation-related ceRNAs and revealed six circRNAs (novel_circ_0009127, novel_circ_0000628, novel_circ_0011513, novel_circ_0010775, novel_circ_0006981 and novel_circ_0001494) were related to adipogenesis. Furthermore, we analyzed the homology among yak, human and mouse circRNAs and found that 3536 yak circRNAs were homologous to human and mouse circRNAs. In conclusion, these findings provide a solid basis for the investigation of yak adipocyte differentiation-related circRNAs and serve as a great reference to study the energy metabolism of high-altitude animals.
