Adiponectin regulates expression of hepatic genes critical for glucose and lipid metabolism.


ABSTRACT: The effects of adiponectin on hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism at transcriptional level are largely unknown. We profiled hepatic gene expression in adiponectin knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice by RNA-Seq. Comparing to WT mice, adiponectin KO mice exhibited decreased mRNA expression of rate-limiting enzymes in several important glucose and lipid metabolic pathways including glycolysis, TCA cycle, fatty-acid activation and synthesis, triglyceride synthesis and cholesterol synthesis. In addition, binding of the transcription factor Hnf4a to DNAs encoding several key metabolic enzymes was reduced in KO mice, suggesting that adiponectin might regulate hepatic gene expression via Hnf4a. Phenotypically, adiponectin KO mice possessed smaller epididymal fat pads and showed reduced body weights comparing to WT mice. When fed a high fat diet, adiponectin KO mice showed significantly reduced lipid accumulation in the livers. These lipogenic defects are consistent with the downregulation of lipogenic genes in the KO mice.
