Selective molecular responses of rat white adipose tissue according to the fasting stage

ABSTRACT: Prolonged fasting-induced changes in rat white adipose tissue (epidydimal) transcriptome White adipose tissue is a central place to energy storage and a major endocrine organ. However, adipose molecular mechanisms have been poorly studied during prolonged fasting. To fill this gap, the aim of this study was to decipher transcriptomic regulations in rat adipose tissue during phase 2 (lipid mobilization) and phase 3 (protein catabolism) of prolonged fasting compared to the fed state. We describe a regulatory transcriptional program in epididymal adipose tissue in line with lipogenesis repression during both phases, and that would favor lipolysis during phase 2 and repress it during phase 3. Such regulations notably involve selective (i.e. phase-dependent) changes in gene expression levels of lipases, lipid droplet-associated factors, and the proteins involved in cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent regulation of lipolysis. The mRNA levels of adipose-secreted factors were globally consistent with the repression of insulin signalling during prolonged fasting. Regulations of leptin and adiponectin levels could be related to their respective role in triggering refeeding during late fasting and controlling lipid metabolism. Specific responses reflecting adipose tissue inflammation, increased fibrinolysis and a possible protein catabolism-related energy saving mechanism were also recorded during phase 3. These data thus provide a comprehensive molecular basis of adipose tissue responses according to the fasting stage.

Rat white adipose tissue DIGE-LC-MSMS

Project description:White adipose tissue is a central place to energy storage and a major endocrine organ. However, adipose molecular mechanisms have been poorly studied during prolonged fasting. To fill this gap, the aim of this study was to decipher proteomic regulations in rat adipose tissue during phase 2 (lipid mobilization) and phase 3 (protein catabolism) of prolonged fasting compared to the fed state. Specific responses reflecting adipose tissue inflammation, increased fibrinolysis and a possible protein catabolism-related energy saving mechanism were recorded during phase 3. Differences between internal and subcutaneous adipose tissues were essentially related to lipid metabolism, the response to oxidative stress and energy production. These data thus provide a molecular basis of adipose tissue responses according to the fasting stage.

Activin E controls body fat distribution via suppression of adipose lipolysis in mice

Project description:Body fat distribution is a heritable risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic disease. In humans, rare Inhibin beta E (INHBE, activin E) loss-of-function variants are associated with lower waist-to-hip ratio and protection from type 2 diabetes. Hepatic fatty acid sensing promotes INHBE expression during fasting and in obese individuals, yet it is unclear how the hepatokine activin E governs body shape and energy metabolism. Here, we uncover activin E as a negative feedback regulator of adipose lipolysis that restrains excessive fat breakdown during fasting. By suppressing β-agonist-induced lipolysis, activin E promotes visceral fat accumulation, adipocyte hypertrophy and contributes to adipose dysfunction in mice. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that activin E elicits its effect on adipose tissue through ACVR1C, activating SMAD2/3 signaling and suppressing PPARG target genes. Conversely, loss of activin E or ACVR1C increases fat utilization, lowers adiposity and drives gene signatures indicative of healthy adipose function. Our studies identify activin E-ACVR1C as metabolic rheostat promoting liver-adipose crosstalk to preserve fat mass during prolonged fasting, a mechanism that is maladaptive in obese individuals.

Effects of short-term starvation on the transcriptome and lipid metabolism of epididymal white adipose tissue in mice

Project description:Beneficial effects have been reported in individuals undergoing fasting to treat excessive weight gain and obesity. To better understand the effects of starvation on the transcriptome and lipid metabolism of white adipose tissue, we established a mouse model of 24-hour fasting using wild type C57BL/6J mice, and performed RNA-seq analysis of the white adipose tissue from the epididymis of fasted mice and control mice. Compared with the control fed mice, these fasted mice showed suppressed lipid synthesis and inhibited insulin signaling, while the lipolysis and gluconeogenesis were enhanced to maintain blood sugar stability. Specifically, the fasted mice had reduced volume of adipose tissues, increased levels of serum NEFA and ANP. In epididymal white adipose tissue, starvation increased the NEFA content, up-regulated the mRNA levels of Atgl, Adrb2, Anp, and Npr1, and promoted the phosphorylation of Hsl. Notably, bioinformatics analysis of the RNA-seq data showed that 24-hour fasting-induced alterations in lipid metabolism was associated with suppressed AMPK signaling and enhanced PPAR signaling in white adipose tissue, which was verified by quantitative PCR. Collectively, these findings supported that starvation promoted the conversion of energy-supplying substrates from glucose to fat. Our work sheds new light on harnessing the plasticity of adipose tissues and the AMPK/PPAR signaling pathways to develop potential strategies to combat obesity and other glucose/lipid metabolisms-associated human diseases.

Altered adipose lipid mobilization predicts long-term weight gain and impaired glucose metabolism

Project description:Factors predicting body weight gain and associated disturbed glucose metabolism remain to be established. Here we assessed the role of subcutaneous adipocyte lipid mobilization (lipolysis) in spontaneous long-term (>10 years) body weight changes. In two independent clinical cohorts we found that low stimulated lipolysis at baseline correlated inversely with body mass index changes over time. Disturbed lipolysis gave odds ratios of ≥4.6 for weight gain and ≥3.2 for development of insulin resistance and impaired fasting glucose/type 2 diabetes. Baseline adipose mRNA expression of a set of established lipolysis-regulating genes was lower in weight gainers.

Transcription profiling by array of human adipose tissue from hypopituitary men before and after growth hormon (GH) treatment.

Project description:Adipose tissue is a major target of GH action. GH stimulates lipolysis and reduces fat mass. The molecular mechanism underlying cellular and metabolic effects of GH in adipose tissue is not well understood. The aim of this study is to identify GH-responsive genes that regulate lipid metabolism in adipose tissue. Eight men with GH deficiency underwent measurement of plasma free fatty acid (FFA), whole body lipid oxidation and fat biopsies before and after one month of GH treatment (0.5mg/day). Gene expression profiling was performed using Agilent 44K G4112F arrays utilising a two-colour design. Differentially expressed genes were identified using an empirical Bayes, moderate t-test, with a false discovery rate of < 5%. Genes involved in GH receptor signalling, lipolysis, triglyceride biosynthesis, adipocyte differentiation and function were analysed. Target genes were validated by quantitative RT-PCR. GH increased circulating IGF-I and FFA and stimulated fat oxidation. A total of 246 genes were differentially expressed, of which 135 were up-regulated and 111 down-regulated. GH enhanced adipose tissue expression of IGF-I and SOCS3. It did not change expression of key enzymes governing lipolysis, but differentially regulated genes promoting diacylglycerol syntheses. GH repressed hydroxysteroid (11-beta) dehydrogenase 1, which activates local cortisol production, and genes encoding components of extracellular matrix that regulate inflammation. GH induced concordant change in circulating IGF-I and expression in adipose tissue. GH stimulation of lipolysis is mediated at a translational and/or post-translational level. GH suppressed genes encoding local factors regulating adipocyte differentiation, function and inflammation.

Transcriptomic signature of fasting in murine adipose tissue

Project description:Little is known about the impact of fasting on gene regulation in human adipose tissue. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of fasting on adipose tissue gene expression in humans. To that end, subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsies were collected from volunteers 2h and 26h after consumption of a standardized meal. For comparison, epididymal adipose tissue was collected from C57Bl/6J mice after a 16h fast and in the ab-libitum fed state. Transcriptome analysis was carried out using Affymetrix microarrays. We found that, 1) fasting downregulated numerous metabolic pathways in human adipose tissue, including triglyceride and fatty acid synthesis, glycolysis and glycogen synthesis, TCA cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial translation, and insulin signaling; 2) fasting downregulated genes involved in proteasomal degradation in human adipose tissue; 3) fasting had much less pronounced effects on the adipose tissue transcriptome in humans than mi ce; 4) although major overlap in fasting-induced gene regulation was observed between human and mouse adipose tissue, many genes were differentially regulated in the two species, including genes involved in insulin signaling (PRKAG2, PFKFB3), PPAR signaling (PPARG, ACSL1, HMGCS2, SLC22A5, ACOT1), glycogen metabolism (PCK1, PYGB), and lipid droplets (PLIN1, PNPLA2, CIDEA, CIDEC). In conclusion, although numerous genes and pathways are regulated similarly by fasting in human and mouse adipose tissue, many genes show very distinct responses to fasting in humans and mice. Our data provide a useful resource to study adipose tissue function during fasting.

Proteomic analysis of adipose depots after intermittent fasting reveals visceral fat preservation mechanisms

Project description:Objectives Intermittent fasting is an effective dietary intervention to combat metabolic disease. Here, we explore the adipose depot specific response to every-other-day fasting (EODF) in mice to identify mechanisms that underly the beneficial effects. Methods Male C57BL/6J mice were placed on a 12-day EODF or ad libitum diet, after which tissues were harvested including visceral (vWAT) and subcutaneous (scWAT) white adipose tissue, as well as brown adipose tissue (BAT), which was then analysed by unbiased mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Results After EODF treatment, pathway enrichment analysis of our dataset showed that both WAT depots showed increased mitochondrial protein content, with scWAT also showing increased UCP1, but mitochondrial protein content was decreased in BAT. This effect on mitochondria is correlated to the increased abundance of proteins involved in glycolysis, pyruvate metabolism, the TCA cycle and fatty acid synthesis in both WAT depots. Furthermore, EODF-treated mice downregulated the lipolysis pathway in vWAT including a 5-fold decrease in the abundance of the beta3 adrenergic receptor (ADRB3). Enrichment analysis lso revealed that vWAT of EODF treated mice had significantly reduced ECM proteins, which lowers the inflammatory potential of this organ. Our adipose depot proteomic survey also allowed us to identify depot-enriched protein expression, such as the vWAT enrichment for the AKAP12 protein related to PKA signalling that was down-regulated by EODF treatment. Conclusions These findings show how the adipose depots have adapted to the EODF regime to preserve the lipid store, with the most striking changes occurring in the vWAT depot to downregulate the lipolysis pathway and induce expression of pathways needed for fatty acid synthesis. This substrate cycling and reduced inflammatory potential of the adipose tissue may contribute to the improved insulin sensitivity observed in these animals.

Adipose METTL14-elicited N6-methyladenosine promotes obesity, insulin resistance, and NAFLD by suppressing β adrenergic signaling and lipolysis

Project description:Obesity is associated with impaired β-adrenergic receptor (Adrb1-3) signaling and lipolysis, leading to aberrant white adipose tissue (WAT) growth. WAT research has been centered on transcriptional and posttranslational regulations, but posttranscriptional regulation and mRNA modifications are poorly understood. Here, we unveil a METTL14/N6-methyladenosine (m6A) paradigm guiding β-adrenergic signaling and lipolysis. METTL14 complex installs m6A on RNA, regulating mRNA fate and translation. We found that feeding and insulin increased adipose Mettl14 and m6A levels. Adipose Mettl14 and m6A were upregulated in high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. Ablation of adipose Mettl14 decreased Adrb2, Adrb3, Atgl (encoding lipase), and Cig-58 (Atgl activator) transcript m6A contents while increasing their translation and protein levels, thereby enhancing adipose β-adrenergic signaling and lipolysis. Consequently, adipocyte-specific Mettl14 knockout mice were resistant to HFD-induced obesity, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, and NAFLD. These results unravel a METTL14/m6A-based epitranscriptomic mechanism governing β-adrenergic signaling, lipolysis, and adipose growth in health and disease.
