Gene expression profiles in epididymal white adipose tissue of lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4-KO mice

ABSTRACT: White adipose tissue (WAT) is a highly active metabolic and endocrine organ, and its dysfunction links obesity to a variety of diseases, ranging from type 2 diabetes to cancer. The function of WAT is under the control of multiple cell signaling systems, including that of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Gαs- and Gαi-coupled receptors have been reported to regulate lipolysis, and Gαq-coupled receptors stimulate glucose uptake in adipocytes. However, the roles of Gα12/13-coupled receptors in WAT are totally unknown. Here we show that lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4 (LPA4), an adipose cluster GPCR, selectively activates Gα12/13 proteins in adipocytes, and limits continuous remodeling and healthy expansion of WAT in mice. Under standard diet conditions, LPA4-knockout mice showed higher expression levels of mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes in WAT, along with higher production of adiponectin than control mice. In vitro studies have consistently demonstrated that the LPA4/Rho/Rho-kinase signaling pathway suppresses mRNA expression of mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes in adipocytes. In a diet-induced obesity model, LPA4-deficient mice showed “metabolically healthy obese” phenotypes, with continuous WAT expansion, and protection from WAT inflammation, hepatosteatosis, and insulin resistance. Given that GPCRs comprise the most successful class of drug targets, LPA4 would be a promising therapeutic target for obesity-related metabolic disorders.

Gene expression profiles in inguinal white adipose tissue of lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4-KO mice

Lipolysis drives expression of the constitutively active receptor GPR3 to induce adipose thermogenesis [hBA-OE]

Project description:Thermogenic adipocytes possess a therapeutically appealing, energy-expending capacity, which is canonically cold-induced by ligand-dependent activation of b-adrenergic G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Here we uncover an alternate paradigm of GPCR-mediated adipose thermogenesis through the constitutively active receptor, GPR3. We show that the N-terminus of GPR3 confers intrinsic signaling activity, resulting in continuous Gs-coupling and cAMP production without an exogenous ligand. Thus, transcriptional induction of Gpr3 represents the regulatory parallel to ligand-binding of conventional GPCRs. Consequently, increasing Gpr3 expression in thermogenic adipocytes is alone sufficient to drive energy expenditure and counteract metabolic disease in mice. Gpr3 transcription is cold-stimulated by a lipolytic signal and dietary fat potentiates GPR3-dependent thermogenesis to amplify the response to caloric excess. Moreover, we find GPR3 to be an essential, adrenergic-independent regulator of human brown adipocytes. Taken together, our findings reveal a noncanonical mechanism of GPCR control and thermogenic activation through the lipolysis-induced expression of constitutively active GPR3.

STAT1 Dissociates Adipose Tissue Inflammation from Insulin Sensitivity in Obesity

Project description:Purpose: To determine how STAT1 activity in white adipocytes affects insulin sensitivity. Methods: Adipocyte specific (ADIPOQ-Cre) STAT1 fl/fl mice (STAT1 fKO) and littermate controls (STAT1 fl/fl) were placed on 60% HFD for 18 weeks, followed by metabolic phenoptying and tissue harvest for RNA-seq Results: STAT1 expression in WAT inversely correlated with fasting plasma glucose in both obese mice and humans. Metabolomic and gene expression profiling established STAT1 deletion in adipocytes (STAT1 fKO) enhanced mitochondrial function and accelerated TCA cycle flux coupled with subcutaneous WAT hyperplasia. STAT1 fKO reduced WAT inflammation, but insulin resistance persisted in obese mice. Rather, elimination of type I cytokine interferon gamma (IFNg) activity enhanced insulin sensitivity in diet-induced obesity. Conclusions: Our findings reveal a permissive mechanism that bridges WAT inflammation to whole-body insulin sensitivity.

BAFF neutralization impairs the clearance of dead adipocytes and promotes insulin resistance in obese mice

Project description:B cell-activating factor (BAFF) is critical for the survival and maturation of B2 cells. However, excess BAFF breaks the peripheral tolerance of B2-cells leading to the production of autoantibodies that cause autoimmune diseases. During obesity, BAFF is predominantly produced by white adipose tissue (WAT), and IgG autoantibodies against adipocytes are identified in the WAT of obese humans. However, it remains to be determined if the autoantibodies formed during obesity affect WAT remodeling and systemic insulin resistance. Here, we show that IgGs from high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice bind to apoptotic adipocytes and promote their clearance by macrophages. Next, using murine models of obesity in which the gonadal WAT undergoes remodeling, unexpectedly we found that BAFF neutralization increased the number of dead adipocytes and exacerbated WAT inflammation and insulin resistance despite depletion of IgG autoantibodies. RNA sequencing of the stromal vascular fraction from the WAT revealed impaired B cell activation and phagocytosis pathways. In-vitro, the clearance of apoptotic adipocytes by macrophages was attenuated in the presence of IgGs from BAFF-neutralized mice compared to the control mice. Altogether, our study suggests a beneficial role of BAFF and IgG autoantibodies in WAT remodeling in obesity and the regulation of systemic insulin resistance.

A new LD protein, ApoL6 disrupts the Perilipin 1-HSL interaction to inhibit lipolysis

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.

Comprehensive transcriptomic characterization of hepatic expression signatures affected by guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein) alpha 12 knockout

Project description:Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) transmit extracellular signals from cell surface G protein-coupled receptors to intracellular effector molecules. Of the G proteins, Gα12 has attracted particular interest as the gep oncogene in cancer research because it promotes the growth and oncogenic transformation of fibroblasts and is invoked in tumorigenesis. In our findings, Gα12 expression was higher in HCC than surrounding non-tumorous tissue. Results provide information on the role of Gα12 in HCC progression. cDNA microarrays analyses using liver samples obtained from WT and Gα12-knockout mice enabled us to extract the predominant processes affected by a deficiency of Gα12, which include cellular response to stress, cell proliferation, actin cytoskeleton organization, and cellular component biogenesis.

Nck2 Regulates Adiposity and Adiposity-Related Metabolic Disorders in Mice and Human

Project description:Obesity is linked to the development of metabolic disorders. Expansion of white adipose tissue (WAT) from hypertrophy of pre-existing adipocytes and/or differentiation of precursors into new mature adipocytes contributes to obesity. We found that Nck2 expression is largely restricted to WAT, raising the hypothesis that it may play a unique function in that tissue. Using mice lacking Nck2, we found that Nck2 regulates adipocyte hypertrophy thus contributing to increased adiposity and progressive glucose intolerance, insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis. These findings were recapitulated in humans such that Nck2 expression in omental WAT was inversely correlated with the degree of obesity. Mechanistically, Nck2 deficiency promoted the induction of an adipocyte differentiation program and signaling by the PERK-eIF2Î±-ATF4 pathway in agreement with a role for the unfolded protein response in adipogenesis. These findings uncover Nck2 as a novel regulator of adipogenesis and that perturbation in its functionality contributes to adiposity-related metabolic disorders.
