Unravelling the developmental roadmap towards human brown adipose tissue

ABSTRACT: We have developed and characterised functionally and molecularly a new chemically-defined protocol for the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) into brown adipocytes (BAs) that overcomes current limitations This protocol recapitulates step-by-step the physiological developmental path of human BAT. The BAs obtained expresses brown adipocyte and thermogenic markers, are insulin sensitive, and responsive to β-adrenergic stimuli. This new protocol is scalable, enabling the study of human BAs at early stages of development.

Human brown and white preadipocyes clonal dynamics predict themorgenic potential and function

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) holds therapeutic potential for obesity and metabolic syndrome via increasing energy expenditure. Both inter- and intra-individual differences contribute to heterogeneity in human BAT and potentially to differential thermogenic capacity in human populations. Here, we demonstrated the generation of brown and white preadipocyte clones from human neck fat and characterized their adipogenic differentiation and thermogenic function. Combining a UCP1 reporter system and gene expression profiling, we defined novel sets of gene signatures in human preadipocytes that could predict the thermogenic potential of mature adipocytes. Knocking out the positive UCP1 regulators, PREX1 and EDNRB, in brown preadipocytes by CRISPRs markedly abolished the high level of UCP1 in mature brown adipocytes. Finally, we showed the ability to prospectively isolate adipose progenitors with great thermogenic potential. These data provide new insights into the cellular heterogeneity in human fat and offer clinically relevant gene targets that mark thermogenically competent preadipocytes.

EPAC1 enhances energy expenditure by selectively inducing brown and beige adipose tissue growth

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a central thermogenic organ that enhances energy expenditure (EE) and cardiometabolic health. However, regulators that specifically increase the number of thermogenic adipocytes are still an unmet need. Here, we show by phosphoproteomics that cAMP activates distinct signaling pathways in brown progenitors, with the cAMP-EPAC1 axis enhancing proliferation and differentiation of thermogenic but not white adipocytes. Further analysis revealed that a specific subpopulation of preadipocytes that are PDGFRα-positive express EPAC1. In vivo, pharmacological activation of EPAC1 enhances BAT growth and browning of white fat, leading to increased EE and reduced diet-induced adiposity. In contrast, mice lacking EPAC1 in PDGFRα-positive preadipocytes show the opposite phenotype. Importantly, EPAC1 activation enhances proliferation and differentiation of human brown adipocytes and human brown fat organoids. Interestingly, a coding variant in EPAC1 that positively correlates with BMI abolishes norepinephrine-induced proliferation of brown adipocytes. Thus, EPAC1 might be an attractive target to enhance thermogenic adipocyte number and EE to combat metabolic diseases.

Vector and Brown fat lncRNA 1 (Blnc1) expressing differentiated brown adipocytes

Project description:Blnc1 is a novel nuclear lncRNA that promotes brown and beige adipocyte differentiation and function. Blnc1 forms a ribonucleoprotein complex with transcription factor EBF2 to stimulate the thermogenic gene program. Further, Blnc1 itself is a target of EBF2, thereby forming a feedforward regulatory loop to drive adipogenesis toward thermogenic phenotype. We used microarrays to elucidate the role of Blnc1 on brown adipocyte differentiation and the induction of the thermogenic gene program. Brown adipocytes expressing vector or brown fat lncRNA 1 (blnc1) were differentiated for 6 days and harvested for RNA isolation and microarray using Affymetrix Mouse MG-430 PM Strip arrays. Two replicated samples were included in this study.

Transcriptomic and Chromatin accessibility profiling of functional brown adipocytes derived from human pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Brown adipocytes (BAs) are a potential therapeutic cell source for the treatment of metabolic disease such as type 2 diabetes. In this report, human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are subject to directed differentiation to brown dipocytes through a paraxial mesoderm intermediate at high-efficiency. RNA-Seq and ATAC-seq was performed to characterized hPSCs derived paraxial mesoderm and brown adipocytes generated in this study.

BCL6 reinforces brown adipocyte cellular identity to preserve thermogenic fitness

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) generates heat via uncoupled respiration, providing mammals with an evolutionary defense against environmental cold. Although the molecular pathways by which cold activates brown adipocytes are well understood, little is known about how BAT maintains its thermogenic capacity during adaptation to environmental warmth. Here, we identify the transcriptional repressor BCL6 as the switch for maintaining brown adipocyte cellular identity under warm conditions. Mice lacking BCL6 in their brown adipocytes display normal thermogenic responses when housed in a cool environment, but fail to maintain thermogenic fitness when housed under warm conditions. In a temperature-dependent manner, BCL6 suppresses apoptosis, fatty acid storage, and coupled respiration to maintain thermogenic competence in brown adipocytes. Enhancer analysis revealed that BCL6 reinforces brown-specific while opposing white-specific enhancers to maintain cellular identity. Thus, unlike other regulators, BCL6 is dispensable for differentiation and activation of brown adipocytes, but specifically required for their maintenance in warmth.

LncRNAs expression profiling in adipose tissues and during brown adipocyte differentiation

Project description:Brown and beige fats generate heat via uncoupled respiration to defend against cold, mechanistically, through the action of a network of transcription factors and cofactors. Here we globally profiled long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) gene expression during thermogenic adipocyte formation and identified Brown fat lncRNA 1 (Blnc1) as a novel nuclear lncRNA that promotes brown and beige adipocyte differentiation and function by forming a feedforward regulatory loop with EBF2 to drive adipogenesis toward thermogenic phenotype. LncRNAs expression were measured in BAT and WAT from mice injected saline/CL and during brown adipocyte differentiation with two replicates using Arraystar Mouse LncRNA microarray V2.0

The snRNAseq Analysis of JunB deficient brown adipose tissue and control samples

Project description:The coexistence of brown adipocytes with low and high thermogenic activity is a fundamental feature of brown adipose tissue (BAT) heterogeneity and plasticity. However, the mechanisms that govern thermogenic adipocyte heterogeneity and its significance in obesity and metabolic disease remain poorly understood. Here we show that in male mice, a population of JunB-enriched (JunB+) adipocytes within the BAT exhibits lower thermogenic capacity compared to high-thermogenic adipocytes. To determine if JunB plays a role in the control of brown adipocyte heterogeneity in thermogenesis, we performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) of BAT from JunB FKO and control mice (3-month-old male mice (5/group)) housed at room temperature. Our study pointing to a potent inhibition by JunB in the conversion from low- to high-thermogenic adipocyte.
