A microRNA cluster controls fat cell differentiation and adipose tissue expansion by regulating SNCG

ABSTRACT: The H19X-encoded miR-424(322)/503 cluster regulates multiple cellular functions. Here we report for the first time that it is also a critical linchpin of fat mass expansion. Deletion of this miRNA cluster in mice results in obesity, while increasing the pool of early adipocyte progenitors and hypertrophied adipocytes. Complementary loss and gain of function experiments and RNA sequencing demonstrate that miR-424(322)/503 regulates a conserved genetic program involved in the differentiation and commitment of white adipocytes. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that miR-424(322)/503 targets γ-Synuclein (SNCG), a factor that mediates this program rearrangement by controlling metabolic functions in fat cells, allowing adipocyte differentiation and adipose tissue enlargement. Accordingly, diminished miR-424(322) in mice and obese humans co-segregates with increased SNCG in fat and peripheral blood as mutually exclusive features of obesity, being normalized upon weight loss. Our data unveil a previously unknown regulatory mechanism of fat mass expansion tightly controlled by the miR-424(322)/503 through SNCG.

Expression data from mouse primary brown preadipocytes

Project description:Brown adipocytes are specialized for heat generation and energy expenditure as a defense against cold and obesity. Recent studies demonstrate that brown adipocytes arise in vivo from a Myf5-positive, myoblastic progenitor by the action of PRDM16. Here, we identified a brown fat-enriched miRNA cluster mir-193b-365 as a key regulator of brown fat development. Blocking miR-193b and/or miR-365 in primary brown preadipocytes dramatically impaired brown adipocyte adipogenesis whereas myogenic markers were significantly induced. Forced expression of miR-193b and/or miR-365 in C2C12 myoblasts blocked the entire program of myogenesis, and miR-193b induced myoblasts to differentiate into brown adipocytes. Mir-193b-365 was upregulated by PRDM16. Our results demonstrate that mir-193b-365 serves as an essential regulator for brown fat differentiation, in part by repressing myogenesis. To study if miR-193b-365 is required for brown adipocyte adipogenesis, mRNAs from cultured primary brown adipocytes (Day 4) transfected with each locked nucleic acid (LNA) miRNA inhibitor or Control inhibitor were analyzed by microarray analysis.

The miR-424(322)/503 gene cluster regulates pro- vs anti-inflammatory skin DC subset differentiation by modulating TGF-βsignaling

Project description:TGF-β family ligands are key regulators of dendritic cell (DC) differentiation and activation. Epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs) require TGF-β family signaling for their differentiation and canonical TGF-β1 signaling secures a non-activated LC state. LCs reportedly control skin inflammation and are replenished from peripheral blood monocytes, which also give rise to pro-inflammatory monocyte-derived DCs (moDCs). By studying mechanisms in inflammation, we previously screened LCs vs moDCs for differentially expressed miRNAs. miR-424/503 was the most strongly inversely regulated (moDCs > LCs). We found that miR-424/503 is induced during moDC differentiation and promotes moDC differentiation in human and mouse. Inversely, forced repression of miR-424 during moDC differentiation facilitated TGF-β1-dependent LC differentiation. Mechanistically, miR-424/503 deficiency in monocyte/DC precursors leads to the induction of TGF-β1-response genes critical for LC differentiation. Therefore, the miR-424/503 gene cluster plays a decisive role in anti-inflammatory LC vs pro-inflammatory moDC differentiation from monocytes.

Expression data from female C57BL/6J and B6.Cg-Mir146atm1.1Bal/J mice after 10 weeks of normal or high fat diet

Project description:The pathogenesis of obesity-related metabolic diseases has been linked to the inflammation of white adipose tissue (WAT), but the molecular interconnections are still not fully understood. MiR-146a controls inflammatory processes by suppressing pro-inflammatory signaling pathways. The aim of this study was to characterize the role of miR-146a in obesity and insulin sensitivityresistance . MiR-146a-/- mice were subjected to a high fat diet followed by metabolic tests and WAT transcriptomics. Gain- and loss-of-function studies were performed using human Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS) adipocytes. Compared to controls, miR-146a-/- mice gained significantly more body weight on a high fat diet with increased fat mass and adipocyte hypertrophy. This was accompanied by exacerbated liver steatosis, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance. Likewise, adipocytes transfected with an inhibitor of miR-146a displayed a decrease in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, while transfecting miR-146a mimics caused the opposite effect. Natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3) was identified as a direct target gene of miR-146a in adipocytes and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout of NPR3 increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and enhanced de-novo lipogenesis. In summary, miR-146a regulates systemic and adipocyte insulin sensitivity via downregulation of NPR3.

Gene expresssion analysis in liver and white adipose tissues from miR-322-503-351 knock out mice.

Project description:To investigate the effect of miR-503 in aging associated type 2 diabetes, target genes of miR-503 need to be investigated. The global miR-322-503-351 deletion (KO) mouse was constructed, and RNA-seq was then performed on aged mouse liver and white adipose tissue (WAT).

MicroRNAs are required for the feature maintenance and differentiation of brown adipocytes

Project description:Brown adipose tissue is specialized to burn lipids for heat generation as a natural defense against cold and obesity. Previous studies established microRNAs as essential regulators of brown adipocyte differentiation, but it remains unknown whether microRNAs are required for the feature maintenance of mature brown adipocytes. To address this question, we ablated Dgcr8, a key regulator of the microRNA biogenesis pathway, in mature brown as well as white adipocytes. The adipose tissue -specific Dgcr8 knockout mice displayed enlarged but pale interscapular brown fat with decreased expression of genes characteristic of brown fat, and the mice were intolerant to cold exposure. In vitro primary brown adipocyte cultures confirmed that microRNAs are required for marker gene expression in mature brown adipocytes. We also demonstrated that microRNAs are essential for the browning of subcutaneous white adipocyte both in vitro and in vivo. Using this animal model, we performed microRNA expression profiling analysis and identified a set of BAT-specific microRNAs that are up-regulated during brown adipocyte differentiation and enriched in brown fat compared to other organs. We identified miR-182 and miR-203 as new regulators of brown adipocyte development. Taken together, our study demonstrates an essential role of microRNAs in the maintenance as well as the differentiation of brown adipocytes. TotalRNAs were extracted using a Qiagen kit, and 5 M-NM-<g of total RNAs for each sample were used to prepare the mRNA- Seq library according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instruction (NEB). cDNA libraries were prepared and sequenced by Hi-seq in Whitehead Genome Core. 2 replicates of each treatment were analyzed.

The effect of miR-322/-503 on myoblast differentiation in DM1 murine cell model

Project description:To study the gene expression profile difference caused by miR-322/-503 overexpression in the myoblast differentiation of DM1 group, we performed RNA-seq on the total RNA samples collected from the in vitro myoblast differentiation day 4 of control and miR-322/-503 overexpressing DM1 C2C12 cell models. The DM1 cell model was bulit by stably transfecting C2C12 cells with GFP-CUG200 plasmid. Each group contained three biological replicates. The expression matrix was obtained by Hisat2 followed by Stringtie.

RNA-Sequencing of wild type and UCP1-null beige adipose tissue

Project description:Since brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates energy through UCP1, BAT has garnered attention as a therapeutic intervention for obesity and metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes. As we better understand the roles of classical brown and beige adipocytes, increased beige fat mass in response to a variety of external/internal cues is associated with significant improvements in glucose and lipid homeostasis that may not be entirely mediated by UCP1. We aim to analyze transcriptome of wild type and UCP1-null beige adipocyte to identify the UCP1-independent function.
