Project description:Perilipin A (PeriA) exclusively locates on adipocyte lipid droplets and is essential for lipid storage and lipolysis. Adipocyte specific overexpression of PeriA caused resistance to diet-induced obesity and resulted in improved insulin sensitivity. In order to better understand the biological basis for this observed phenotype we performed DNA microarray analysis on white adipose tissue (WAT) from PeriA transgenic (Tg) and control wildtype (WT) mice. We generated transgenic mice that overexpressed human PeriA using the adipocyte specific aP2 promoter/enhancer (Miyoshi, et al. J Lipid Res 2010). All PeriA Tg mice used for the study were female, and heterozygous for the transgene. Littermates that lacked the transgene were used as controls (WT). All mice were housed at room temperature, maintained on a 12 h light/dark cycle, given free access to water, and fed a high-fat diet (HFD) until the age of 30 weeks. On the day prior to tissue harvest at 30 weeks, WAT from perigonadal were rapidly dissected out, extracted total RNA, and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Disturbances in lipid homeostasis can cause mitochondrial dysfunction and lipotoxicity requiring tight regulation of intracellular lipid metabolism and fatty acid (FA) flux. Perilipin 5 (PLIN5) decorates intracellular lipid droplets (LD) in oxidative tissues and controls triacylglycerol (TG) turnover via its interactions with Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and the ATGL co-activator Comparative gene identification-58 (CGI-58). Furthermore, PLIN5 anchors mitochondria to the LD membrane via its carboxyl-terminal domain. However, the role of this LD-mitochondria coupling (LDMC) in cellular FA flux and energy catabolism is less established. In this study, we investigated the impact of abolished LDMC on cellular FA flux, mitochondrial respiration and protein interaction. To do so, we established novel PLIN5 truncation variants lacking LDMC while maintaining normal interactions with lipolytic key players. Radiotracer studies with transgenic cell lines stably overexpressing either wild type or truncated PLIN5 revealed that LDMC has no significant impact on FA esterification upon lipid loading or TG catabolism during stimulated lipolysis. Moreover, we found that LDMC is not essential for FA shuttling into mitochondria, which was in line with only minor effects of disrupted LDMC on FA oxidation. In contrast, LDMC significantly improved the mitochondrial respiratory capacity and metabolic flexibility of lipid-challenged cardiomyocytes, which was corroborated by LDMC-dependent interactions of PLIN5 with mitochondrial proteins involved in mitochondrial respiration, dynamics and cristae organization. Taken together, this study suggests that PLIN5 preserves mitochondrial function by adjusting FA supply via the regulation of TG hydrolysis and that LDMC is a vital part of mitochondrial integrity.

Project description:This study explored the role of the growth hormone (GH) / insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) axis on the life-long caloric restriction (CR)-associated remodeling of white adipose tissue (WAT). Adipocyte size and gene expression profiles, using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays, were analyzed in WAT of six- to seven-month old wild Wistar rats fed ad libitum (AL) or subjected to a 30% caloric restriction (CR), and heterozygous transgenic dwarf rats bearing an anti-sense GH transgene fed ad libitum (Tg). While not significant in Tg rats, adipocyte size was significantly reduced in CR rats compared with AL rats. The microarray data based on the principal component analysis demonstrated that the gene expression profile of CR rats markedly differed from the AL rats, while Tg hardly differed, suggesting that CR-associated WAT remodeling was predominantly regulated in a GH/IGF-1-independent manner. The gene cluster with the largest change induced by CR included several genes involved in lipid biosynthesis and inflammation. Moreover, many of the genes transcriptionally regulated by sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) were found in the cluster related to lipid biosynthesis. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis confirmed that the expression of SREBP-1 and its down-stream targets was particularly up-regulated in CR rats compared with SREBP-2 and its down-stream targets. Our findings suggest that SREBP-1 is a major transcription factor in CR-associated remodeling of WAT, and might be one of the key regulators of the anti-aging and pro-longevity effects of CR. The three groups: GH antisense, caloric restriction, and the control were compared by using PCA.

Project description:Lipid mobilization (lipolysis) in white adipose tissue (WAT) critically controls lipid turnover and adiposity in humans. While the acute regulation of lipolysis has been studied in detail, the transcriptional determinants of WAT lipolytic activity remain still largely unexplored. Here we show that the genetic inactivation of transcriptional co-factor transducin beta-like-related (TBLR) 1 blunts the lipolytic response of white adipocytes through the impairment of cAMP-dependent signal transduction. Indeed, mice lacking TBLR1 in adipocytes are defective in fasting-induced lipid mobilization and when placed on a high fat diet show aggravated adiposity, glucose intolerance and insulin resistance. TBLR1 levels are found to increase under lipolytic conditions in WAT of both human patients and mice, correlating with serum free fatty acids (FFA). As a critical regulator of WAT cAMP signaling and lipid mobilization, proper activity of TBLR1 in adipocytes may thus represent a critical molecular checkpoint for the prevention of metabolic dysfunction in subjects with obesity-related disorders. We used microarrays to identify global gene expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes lacking TBLR1 and compared gene expression to control shRNA treated cells in both basal and isoproterenol stimulated states. We analyzed 12 RNA samples extracted from 3T3-L1 adipocytes that were treated with either control or TBLR1 specific shRNAs and with or without 10 µM isoproterenol for 3 hrs. Three replicates of each condition.

Project description:ApoL6 is a new LD-associated protein containing an apoprotein-like domain, expressed mainly in adipose tissue, specifically in adipocytes. ApoL6 expression is low in fasting but induced upon feeding. ApoL6 knockdown results in smaller LD with lower triglyceride (TAG) content in adipocytes, while ApoL6 overexpression causes larger LD with higher TAG content. We show that ApoL6 effect in adipocytes is by inhibition of lipolysis. While ApoL6, Perilipin 1 (Plin1) and HSL can form a complex on LD, C-terminal domain of ApoL6 directly interacts with Plin1, to compete with Plin1 binding to HSL through Plin1 N-terminal domain, thereby keeping HSL in a stand by status. Thus, ApoL6 ablation decreases WAT mass, protecting mice from diet-induced obesity, while adipose overexpression increases WAT mass to bring obesity and insulin resistance with hepatosteatosis, making ApoL6 a potential future target against obesity and diabetes.

Project description:Background: Many patients with idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) develop recurrence of proteinuria after kidney transplantation. Several circulating permeability factors (CPFs) responsible for recurrence have been suggested, but there is no consensus about the identity of CPFs in FSGS. We aimed to find proteins involved in the mechanism of action of the CPF(s) and/or potential biomarkers for the presence of CPF(s). Methods: Cultured human podocytes were exposed to plasma from patients with FSGS with presumed CPF(s), or from (disease) controls. Podocyte proteomes were analyzed by mass spectrometry and differentially expressed proteins were validated using flow cytometry, RT-PCR, and immunofluorescence. Changes in podocyte granularity were examined using flow cytometry, electron microscopy imaging and BODIPY staining. Results: Perilipin-2 protein expression was increased in podocytes exposed to presumed CPF-containing plasmas, which was related to disease state and capacity of plasma to induce granularity in podocytes. Elevated perilipin-2 levels were confirmed at protein and mRNA level. The granules observed in podocytes actually are lipid droplets. Importantly, increased perilipin-2 staining was also detected in glomeruli of the FSGS patients whose active disease plasmas induced lipid droplets in podocytes. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that presumably CPF-containing plasma from FSGS patients alter podocyte lipid metabolism and increase perilipin-2 protein and lipid droplet accumulation. Future research should address the mechanism underlying CPF-induced alterations in podocyte lipid metabolism in the context of the pathogenesis of (recurrent) FSGS, which ultimately may result in novel leads for treatment.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) belong to a recently discovered class of molecules proposed to regulate various cellular processes. Here, we systematically analyzed their expression in human subcutaneous white adipose tissue (WAT) and found that a limited set was differentially expressed in either obesity or the insulin resistance that usually follows obesity. Two lncRNAs herein termed adipocyte-specific metabolic related lncRNAs 1(ASMER-1) and ASMER-2 were enriched in adipocytes and regulated by both obesity and insulin resistance. Knockdown of either ASMER-1or ASMER-2 by antisense oligonucleotides using in vitro differentiated human adipocytes altered lipolysis and adiponectin secretion, respectively. The observed effects could be attributed to changes in the expression of genes controlling inflammation and lipid metabolism. Our data demonstrate that lncRNAs are modulators of the metabolic and endocrine functions in fat cells and also provide an emerging link between WAT and common metabolic conditions.

Project description:The circadian clock component REVERBα is considered a dominant regulator of lipid metabolism, with global Reverbα deletion driving dysregulation of white adipose tissue (WAT) lipogenesis and obesity. However, a similar phenotype is not observed under adipocyte-selective deletion (ReverbαFlox2-6AdipoCre), and transcriptional profiling demonstrates that, under basal conditions, direct targets of REVERBα regulation are limited, and include the circadian clock and collagen dynamics. Under high-fat diet (HFD) feeding, ReverbαFlox2-6AdipoCre mice do manifest profound obesity, yet without the accompanying WAT inflammation and fibrosis exhibited by controls. Integration of the WAT REVERBα cistrome with differential gene expression reveals broad control of metabolic processes by REVERBα which is unmasked in the obese state.
