25-Hydroxycholesterol Inhibits Adipogenic Differentiation of C3H10T1/2 Pluripotent Stromal Cells.

ABSTRACT: Understanding of adipogenesis is important to find remedies for obesity and related disorders. In addition, it is also critical in bone disorders because there is a reciprocal relationship between adipogenesis and osteogenesis in bone micro-environment. Oxysterols are pro-osteogenic and anti-adipogenic molecules via hedgehog activation in pluripotent bone marrow stomal cells. However, no study has evaluated the role of specific oxysterols in C3H10T1/2 cells, which are a good cell model for studying osteogenesis and adipogenesis in bone-marrows. Thus, we investigated the effects of specific oxysterols on adipogenesis and expression of adipogenic transcripts in C3H10T1/2 cells. Treatment of cells with DMITro significantly induced mRNA expression of Ppar?. This induction was significantly inhibited by 25-HC. The expression of C/cep?, Fabp4 and Lpl was also inhibited by 25-HC. To determine the mechanism by which 25-HC inhibits adipogenesis, the effects of the hedgehog signalling pathway inhibitor, cyclopamine and CUR61414, were evaluated. Treatment of C3H10T1/2 cells with DMITro + cyclopamine or DMITro + CUR61414 for 96h did not modulate adipocyte differentiation; cyclopamine and CUR61414 did not reverse the inhibitory effects of 25-HC, suggesting that the canonical hedgehog signalling may not play a role in the anti-adipogenic effects of 25-HC in C3H10T1/2 cells. In addition, LXR agonist did not inhibit adipogenesis, but 25-HC strongly inhibits adipogenesis of C3H10T1/2 cells. Our observations showed that 25-HC was the most potent oxysterol in inhibiting adipogenesis and the expression of key adipogenic transcripts in C3H10T1/2 cells among the tested oxysterols, suggesting its potential application in providing an intervention in osteoporosis and obesity. We also report that the inhibitory effects of 25-HC on adipogenic differentiation in C3H10T1/2 cells are not mediated by hedgehog signaling and LXR.

Project description:Intramuscular fat (IMF) is an important trait influencing meat quality, and preadipocyte differentiation is a key factor affecting IMF deposition. Here we compared the transcriptome profiles of porcine intramuscular and subcutaneous preadipocytes during differentiation to gain insight into specific molecular and cellular events associated with intramuscular stromal vascular cell (MSVC) differentiation. RNA-Seq was used to screen for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) during the in vitro differentiation of MSVC and subcutaneous stromal vascular cell (ASVC) on days 0, 2 and 4. A total of 985 DEGs were identified during ASVC differentiation and 1469 DEGs during MSVC differentiation. Among these DEGs, 409 genes were specifically expressed during ASVC differentiation, 893 genes were specifically expressed during MSVC differentiation, and 576 DEGs were co-expressed during ASVC and MSVC differentiation. The expression profiles of DEGs during ASVC or MSVC differentiation were determined by cluster analysis based on Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM). Four significant STEM profiles (profiles 1, 4, 5, and 14) were determined during ASVC differentiation, and four significant STEM profiles (profiles 1, 4, 11, and 14) were determined during MSVC differentiation. Gene ontology (GO) analysis indicated that DEGs related to adipocyte differentiation were identified to be significantly enriched in both adipose and muscle profile 14. In addition, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of DEGs in adipose profile 14 and muscle profiles 11 and 14 (STEM clustered them into one cluster) showed that the PPAR signaling pathway was significantly enriched in these profiles and four signaling pathways were specifically enriched in muscle profiles 11 and 14. Furthermore, analysis of transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) in the gene set revealed two over-represented transcription factors (NR3C4 and NR3C1), which were specifically significantly enriched in the promoter regions of genes within muscle gene expression profiles 11 and 14.

Project description:We previously demonstrated that 25HC (25-hydroxycholesterol, a derivative of cholesterol) blocks KSHV (Kaposi Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus/ Human Herpesvirus-8) de novo infection of primary endothelial cells at a post-entry step and decreases viral gene expression. Herein we sought to determine transcriptomic changes associated with 25HC treatment of primary endothelial cells and primary B cells using RNA sequencing. To understand how 25HC inhibits KSHV infection, we examined global gene expression changes induced by 25HC in HUVECs, with or without KSHV infection. We pre-treated HUVEC with 25HC or vehicle control, then infected with KSHV (four conditions: -/+ 25HC, -/+ infection). At 2 days post-infection (dpi), we harvested RNA and performed RNA-seq to determine differentially expressed genes. We found that 25HC treatment inhibited KSHV gene expression globally and induced several inflammatory cytokines (CXCL8, IL1?), AP-1 components, and innate immunity receptors (RIG-I, TLR2) . Likewise, we also observed 25HC to block EBV de novo infection by inducing apoptosis and blocking transformation into lymphoblastoid cell lines. To determine transcriptomic changes that contributes to this, we purified B cells from healthy donors and infected them with EBV after 25HC pre-treatment with 4 similar conditions mentioned above. Samples were sent for RNA-Seq at 10-12 dpi. In contrast to KSHV infection, we found that only a subset of EBV viral transcripts are downregulated in the 25HC-treated samples. LMP1, which is the primary oncogenic factor, was suppressed and several downstream host targets that would prevent apoptosis during infection were likewise dysregulated. Additionally, several viral noncoding RNAs were also highly downregulated. Further analyses revealed that some 25HC-induced genes in our KSHV data set overlap with antiviral genes that were previously identified in various published screens involving other viruses, demonstrating the broad activity of 25HC. Together, these results answer some important questions about a widely acting antiviral (25HC), with implications for multiple viral and bacterial infections.
