Project description:Obesity and associated metabolic outcomes define the metabolic syndrome. Interestingly, an under-appreciated fact is that body fat distribution, rather than total body fat amount, is a key determinant of metabolic disease. Indeed, in contrast to upper-body obesity, lower-body fat accumulation inversely correlates with metabolic risks. Understanding processes regulating upper- vs. lower-body fat expansion is paramount to predict (and prevent) these risks. We combine functional, proteomics, transcriptomics and epigenomics analyses to identify chromatin-associated mechanisms of adipose depot-specific fat expansion. Here, we analyze by RNA-seq the transcriptome of adipose stem cells (ASCs) from gluteal (lower-body) and abdominal subcutaneous (upper-body) depots induced to differentiate in vitro towards the adipogenic lineage. We aim to identify adipose depot-specific and temporal differences in the up- or down-regulation of gene expression, and a later stage relate these differences to changes in chromatin states.

Project description:Adipose tissue is a primary regulator of energy balance and metabolism. The distribution of adipose tissue depots is of clinical interest because the accumulation of upper-body subcutaneous (ASAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is associated with cardiometabolic diseases, whereas lower-body gluteal-femoral adipose tissue (GFAT) appears to be protective. There is heterogeneity in the morphological and metabolic traits of adipocytes obtained from different regions of the body, but detailed knowledge of the constituent proteins in each depot is lacking. Here, we determined the human adipocyte proteome from ASAT, VAT and GFAT using high-resolution SWATH mass spectrometry proteomics.

Project description:Suboptimal intrauterine nutrition predisposes the fetus to central obesity and metabolic syndrome in adult life, suggesting nutritional programming of the fat distribution. However, the underlying mechanisms are not elucidated. We hypothesized that prenatal nutritional deprivation leads to stimulation of adipogenesis, as an adaptive mechanism, in a depot-dependent manner. The induction of adipogenesis is most enhanced in the subcutaneous lower-body depots, followed by the subcutaneous upper-body and visceral adipose tissue depots. Stimulation of adipogenesis may lead to an early consumption of the stem cell pool, and thus, may impair adipose tissue expandability postnatally, which may lead to differences in regional adipose tissue growth. We tested this hypothesis by analyzing global gene expression to identify expression patterns in subcutaneous abdominal, subcutaneous femoral, and omental adipose depots of baboon fetuses that have been altered by nutritional maternal deprivation. Adipose tissue was collected from baboon fetuses at 165 dG from mothers fed control or 30% nutrient-restricted diets (three females and one male in each group). 24 samples, each consisted of pooled total RNA from triplicate wells (6-well plate).

Project description:In humans, adipose tissue is distributed in subcutaneous abdominal and subcutaneous gluteal depots that comprise a variety of functional differences. Whereas energy storage in gluteal adipose tissue has been shown to mediate a protective effect, an increase of abdominal adipose tissue is associated with metabolic disorders. However, the molecular basis of depot-specific characteristics is not completely understood yet. Using array-based analyses of transcription profiles, we identified a specific set of genes that was differentially expressed between subcutaneous abdominal and gluteal adipose tissue. To investigate the role of epigenetic regulation in depot-specific gene expression, we additionally analyzed genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in abdominal and gluteal depots. By combining both data sets, we identified a highly significant set of depot-specifically expressed genes that appear to be epigenetically regulated. Interestingly, the majority of these genes form part of the homeobox gene family. Moreover, genes involved in fatty acid metabolism were also differentially expressed. Therefore we suppose that changes in gene expression profiles might account for depot-specific differences in lipid composition. Indeed, triglycerides and fatty acids of abdominal adipose tissue were more saturated compared to triglycerides and fatty acids in gluteal adipose tissue. Taken together, our results uncover clear differences between abdominal and gluteal adipose tissue on the gene expression and DNA methylation level as well as in fatty acid composition. Therefore, a detailed molecular characterization of adipose tissue depots will be essential to develop new treatment strategies for metabolic syndrome associated complications. DNA methylation profiles of abdominal adipose tissue (6 samples) and gluteal adipose tissue (6 samples) were generated using Infinium methylation 450K BeadChips from Illumina (Illumina, San Diego, USA).

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction has been reported in obesity and insulin resistance, but primary genetic mitochondrial dysfunction is generally not associated with these, arguing against a straightforward causal relationship. A rare exception, recently identified in humans, is a syndrome of lower body adipose loss, leptin-deficient severe upper body adipose overgrowth, and insulin resistance caused by the p.Arg707Trp mutation in MFN2, encoding mitofusin-2. How this selective perturbation of mitochondrial function leads to tissue- and adipose depot-specific growth abnormalities and systemic biochemical perturbation is unknown. To address this, Mfn2R707W/R707W knock-in mice were generated and phenotyped on chow and high fat diets. Electron microscopy revealed adipose-specific mitochondrial morphological abnormalities. Oxidative phosphorylation by isolated mitochondria was unperturbed, but the cellular integrated stress response was activated in adipose tissue. Fat mass and distribution, body weight, and systemic glucose and lipid metabolism were unchanged, however serum leptin and adiponectin concentrations, and their secretion from adipose explants were reduced. Pharmacological induction of the integrated stress response in wild-type adipocytes also reduced secretion of leptin and adiponectin, suggesting an explanation for the in vivo findings. These data suggest that the p.Arg707Trp MFN2 mutation perturbs mitochondrial morphology and activates the integrated stress response selectively in adipose tissue. In mice, this does not disrupt most adipocyte functions or systemic metabolism, whereas in humans it is associated with pathological adipose remodelling and metabolic disease. In both species, disproportionate effects on leptin secretion may relate to cell autonomous induction of the integrated stress response.

Project description:Visceral adipose tissue inflammation correlates with metabolic dysfunction in obesity. However, critical cell types that trigger and contribute to inflammation in this depot are not completely understood. Mesothelial cells line the omental fat depot and are thought to contribute to several intraperitoneal inflammatory conditions. Whether adipose-associated mesothelial cell inflammation is a feature of pathologic obesity is unclear. This study was performed to delineate a contribution of omental adipose mesothelial cells to visceral adipose tissue dysfunction in pathologic obesity. We performed a cross-sectional case-control study from two separate cohorts of patients undergoing abdominal surgery with varying degrees of obesity and metabolic disease. Whole-genome expression profiling was conducted on mesothelial cells isolated from lean and obese surgical patients to determine differences in relevant pathways related to obesity and metabolic disease.

Project description:Objective: Abdominal adiposity is strongly associated with diabetic and cardiovascular comorbidities. The long non-coding RNA HOTAIR (HOX Transcript Antisense Intergenic RNA) is an important epigenetic regulator, with fat depot-specific expression between abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and gluteal SAT. HOTAIR locates closely with HOXC13, known to strongly associated with human fat distribution. Here, we examined the phenotypic effects of HOTAIR overexpression on abdominal adipogenesis, and hypothesized that HOTAIR-mediated DNA methylation is correlated with transcriptome changes, leading to the regulation of specific genes and the functional pathways. Methods: The expression level of HOTAIR was compared among different fat-depots collected from six healthy, five severe obese, and five uremic subjects, and was correlated with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) defined regional adiposity. The human immortalized preadipocyte was used to assess the phenotypic effects of HOTAIR overexpression on abdominal adipogenesis. The integrative analysis of reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) and RNA-sequencing was performed to identify putative genes that are epigenetically regulated by HOTAIR, and the associated signaling pathways. HOTAIR-repressed genes were further validated using RNA/chromatin immunoprecipitation with real-time qPCR and correlated with human body fat distribution. Results: We found that the expression of HOTAIR was high in gluteal SAT, and low in arm/abdominal SAT and visceral (omental) adipose tissue. It could be aberrantly increased in uremic arm SAT. Notably, in severe obese subjects we found that HOTAIR is lowly expressed in abdominal SAT correlating with a higher abdominal adiposity, whereas in uremic patients HOTAIR is highly expressed in arm SAT correlating with lower arm adiposity. HOTAIR overexpression in human immortalized abdominal preadipocyte remarkably suppresses the in vitro adipogenesis. Overall the differentially methylated genes were functionally enriched for nervous system development. We specifically identified 10 HOTAIR-mediated genes showing strong changes of DNA methylation associated with gene expression during abdominal adipogenesis, suggesting potential epigenetic regulation. Two HOTAIR-repressed genes, SLITRK4 and PITPNC1, were further highlighted and validated; presenting an obesity-driven fat-depot specific expression pattern positively correlated with the central body fat distribution. Conclusions: Our study indicated that HOTAIR is an important regulator for abdominal adipogenesis via intricate DNA methylation likely to associate with transcriptional regulation of specific genes, such as SLITRK4 and PITPNC1.
