Project description:Gene expression profile from brown adipose tissues of Prdm16 knockout and wile type mice. Prdm16 is a transcription factor that regulates the thermogenic gene program in brown and beige adipocytes. However, whether Prdm16 is required for the development or physiological function of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in vivo has been unclear. By analyzing mice that selectively lacked Prdm16 in the brown adipose lineage, we found that Prdm16 was dispensable for embryonic BAT development. Brown adipose tissues were collected from Prdm16 knockout and wiletype mice with 4 biological replicates per condition. Experiment was done in two separate batch for 6-week-old and 11-month-old. Extracted RNA was hybridized to Agilent two-color arrays.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) dissipates chemical energy in the form of heat, as a defense against hypothermia and obesity. Current evidence indicates that brown adipocytes arise from Myf5+-dermotomal precursors through the action of a PRDM16-C/EBP-_ transcriptional complex; however, the underlying mechanisms that determine lineage specification and maintenance of brown adipose cells remain poorly understood. Here we study the role of euchromatic histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 1 (EHMT1), a brown fat-enriched lysine methyltransferase, as an essential enzymatic component of the PRDM16 transcriptional complex and controls brown adipose cell fate. To identify targets and function of EHMT1, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling of BAT from control mouce (Ehmt1flox/flox), Ehmt1Myf5 KO mouse (Myf5-Cre+/-; Ehmt1flox/flox) and Ehmt1adipo KO mouse (Adipo-Cre+/-; Ehmt1flox/flox). Loss of EHMT1 in Myf5+ lineage causes a near total loss of brown fat characteristics and induces muscle-selective gene program in vivo. In addition, adipose-specific deletion of EHMT1 by Adipo-Cre leads to a marked reduction of the thermogenic and fat oxidation genes.

Project description:Prdm16 is a transcription factor that drives a complete program of brown adipocyte differentiation, but the mechanism by which Prdm16 activates gene transcription remains unknown. Utilizing ChIP-seq teqhnique, we found that Prdm16 binds to chromatin at/near many brown fat-selective genes in BAT. Interestingly, Prdm16-deficiency dramatically reduced the binding of Med1 to Prdm16-target sites. Indeed, Prdm16 binds and recruits Med1 to BAT-enriched genes and the loss of Prdm16 caused a fundamental change in chromatin architecture at key BAT-selective genes and also reduced transcirptional activity. Moreover, Prdm16, through its interaction with Med1, defines and regulates the activity of super-enhancers that drive the expression of cell identity genes. Together, these data demonstrate that Prdm16 drives gene transcription by recruiting Med1 to control chromatin architecture and super-enhancers. Brown adipose tissues were collected from Prdm16 knockout and wiletype 9-month-old mice and ChIP-seq was performed for Prdm16, PolII, Med1, and H3K27ac.

Project description:Objective Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays an important role in mammalian thermogenesis through the expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). Our previous study identified cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 2 (CPEB2) as a key regulator that activates the translation of Ucp1 with a long 3′-untranslated region (Ucp1L) in response to adrenergic signaling. Mice lacking CPEB2 or Ucp1L exhibited reduced UCP1 expression and impaired thermogenesis; however, only CPEB2-null mice displayed obesogenic phenotypes. Hence, this study aims to investigate how CPEB2-controlled translation impacts body weight. Methods Body weight measurements were conducted on mice with global knockout (KO) of CPEB2, UCP1 or Ucp1L, as well as those with conditional knockout of CPEB2 in neurons or adipose tissues. RNA sequencing coupled with bioinformatics analysis was used to identify dysregulated gene expression in CPEB2-deficient BAT. The role of CPEB2 in regulating PRD1-BF1-RIZ1 homologous-domain containing 16 (PRDM16) expression was subsequently confirmed by RT-qPCR, Western blotting, polysomal profiling and luciferase reporter assays. Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) expressing CPEB2 or PRDM16 were delivered into BAT to assess their efficacy in mitigating weight gain in CPEB2-KO mice. Results We validated that defective BAT function contributed to the increased weight gain in CPEB2-KO mice. Transcriptomic profiling revealed upregulated expression of genes associated with muscle development in CPEB2-KO BAT. Given that both brown adipocytes and myocytes stem from myogenic factor 5-expressing precursors, with their cell-fate differentiation regulated by PRDM16, we identified that Prdm16 was translationally upregulated by CPEB2. Ectopic expression of PRDM16 in CPEB2-deprived BAT restored gene expression profiles and decreased weight gain in CPEB2-KO mice. Conclusions In addition to Ucp1L, activation of Prdm16 translation by CPEB2 is critical for sustaining brown adipocyte function. These findings unveil a new layer of post-transcriptional regulation governed by CPEB2, fine-tuning thermogenic and metabolic activities of brown adipocytes to control body weight.

Project description:PRDM16 is an important transcriptional regulator of brown and beige adipocyte gene programs. We discovered that PRDM16 also represses type I Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) in brown and beige adipocytes. ChIP-seq demonstrated that PRDM16 binds proximal to many of the regulated ISGs and this correlates with reduction in the amount of the activating mark, H3K27Ac. Together this data shows PRDM16 represses ISG expression through direct binding at promoter regions to block transcription.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis and the browning of white adipose tissue are important components of energy expenditure. An RNAseq-based analysis of the mouse BAT transcriptome led us to identify GPR120 as a gene induced by thermogenic activation. GPR120, a G protein-coupled receptor binding unsaturated long-chain fatty acids, is known to mediate some beneficial metabolic actions of polyunsaturated fatty acids. We show that pharmacological activation of GPR120 induces BAT activity and promotes the browning of white fat in mice, whereas GRP120-null mice show impaired browning in response to cold. n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids induce brown and beige adipocyte differentiation and thermogenic activation, and these effects require GPR120. GPR120 activation induces the release of fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21) by brown and beige adipocytes and increases blood FGF21 levels. The effects of GPR120 activation are impaired in FGF21-null mice and cells. Thus, the lipid sensor GPR120 constitutes a novel pathway of brown fat activation and involves FGF21.

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

Project description:PR (PRD1-BF1-RIZ1 homologous) domain-containing 16 (PRDM16) drives a brown fat differentiation program, but the mechanisms by which PRDM16 activates brown fat-selective genes have been unclear. Through chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) followed by deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) analyses in brown adipose tissue (BAT), we reveal that PRDM16 binding is highly enriched at a broad set of brown fat-selective genes. Importantly, we found that PRDM16 physically binds to MED1, a component of the Mediator complex, and recruits it to superenhancers at brown fat-selective genes. PRDM16 deficiency in BAT reduces MED1 binding at PRDM16 target sites and causes a fundamental change in chromatin architecture at key brown fat-selective genes. Together, these data indicate that PRDM16 controls chromatin architecture and superenhancer activity in BAT.
