SENP2 is an important regulator of energy metabolism in adipocytes and knockdown increases markers of browning

ABSTRACT: Adipose tissue is one of the main regulative sites for energy metabolism. Excess lipid storage and expansion of white adipose tissue (WAT) is the primary contributor to obesity, a strong predisposing factor for development of insulin resistance. Sentrin-specific protease (SENP) 2 has been shown to play a role in metabolism in murine fat and skeletal muscle cells, and we have previously demonstrated its role in energy metabolism of human skeletal muscle cells. In the present work, we have investigated the impact of SENP2 on fatty acid and glucose metabolism in primary human fat cells by using cultured primary human adipocytes to knock down the SENP2 gene. Glucose uptake and oxidation, as well as accumulation and distribution of oleic acid into complex lipids were decreased while oleic acid oxidation was increased in SENP2-knockdown cells compared to control cells. Furthermore, de novo lipogenesis was reduced by SENP2-knockdown in the adipocytes and expression of several metabolically important regulators and markers of browning of WAT were upregulated both on gene and protein level. In conclusion, SENP2 is an important regulator of energy metabolism in primary human adipocytes, and the results indicates a potential role in browning of the cells as well.

Adipose tissue from β-3 agonist-treated mice

Project description:We previously established the transcription factor Zfp423 is critical for maintaining white adipocyte identity through suppression of the thermogenic gene program. The loss of Zfp423 in mature adipocytes triggers the rapid conversion of energy-storing white adipocytes into thermogenic beige adipocytes in subcutaneous WAT. In contrast to subcutaneous WAT, visceral WAT is relatively resistant to browning. However, visceral adipocytes lacing Zfp423 are capable of inducing the thermogenic gene program upon β-3 adrenergic stimulus. Here, we generated mice lacking Zfp423 in visceral adipose by breeding transgenic mice expressing Cre recombinase under the control of the Wilms Tumor 1 locus (Wt1-Cre) to animals carrying the floxed Zfp423 alleles (Zfp423loxP/loxP) (“Vis-KO” mice). Inactivation of Zfp423 in visceral WAT gives rise to thermogenic adipocytes that share properties of subcutaneous beige adipocytes and classic brown adipocytes.

SENP2 suppresses browning of white adipose tissues by de-conjugating SUMO from C/EBPβ

Project description:The adipose tissue is a key site regulating energy metabolism. One of the contributing factors behind this is browning of white adipose tissue (WAT), however, knowledge of the intracellular determinants of browning process remains incomplete. By generating adipocyte-specific Senp2 knockout (Senp2-aKO) mice, here we showed that SENP2 negatively regulates browning by de-conjugating SUMO from C/EBPβ. Senp2-aKO mice were resistant to diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance due to increased energy expenditure and heat production. Senp2 knockout promoted beige adipocyte accumulation in inguinal WAT by upregulation of thermogenic gene expression. In addition, SENP2 knockdown promoted thermogenic adipocyte differentiation of precursor cells isolated from inguinal and epididymal WATs. Mechanistically, sumoylated C/EBPβ, a target of SENP2, suppressed expression of HOXC10, a browning inhibitor, by recruiting a transcriptional repressor DAXX. These findings indicate that a SENP2-C/EBPβ-HOXC10 axis operates for the control of beige adipogenesis in inguinal WAT.

Cold-Induced Adaptations to the Proteome of Mouse Subcutaneous White Adipose Tissue (scWAT) Reveal Proteins Relevant for Tissue Remodeling and Plasticity

Project description:White adipose tissue (WAT) is one of the most dynamic and plastic organs or tissues in the body, capable of expanding its mass in response to positive energy balance (either by proliferation of adipocytes - hyperphasia, or by increasing adipoycyte size - hypertrophy), developing inducible brown adipocytes through a process termed "browning", and changing its mitochondrial mass in response to stimuli such as cold exposure. Most notably, cold stimulation and release of norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals is able to drive lipolysis in WAT (and thus smaller lipid droplet size and adipocyte size), as well as promote sympathetic nerve branching and increased neurite density, as well as development of pockets of browning around these neurite-dense regions of tissue. While several RNA-sequencing (including newer single cell RNAseq studies) have been done in WAT across situations of positive energy balance (such as high fat diet, obesity) or negative energy balance (such as cold stimulation of energy expenditure), very little work has been done to investigate changes to the adipose proteome while the tissue is actively remodeling. Here, we have carried out proteomics analysis on inguinal subcutaneous (sc)WAT of C57BL/6 mice after 24 or 72hrs of cold stimulation, a period during which UCP1 is actively turned on during the browning process. Through these data, we have found that numerous protein pathways changed by cold stimulation relate to tissue remodeling and plasticity, including changes to mitochondrial dynamics, tissue immune cells, and peripheral nerves.

Ctnnb1/β-catenin inactivation in UCP1-positive adipocytes augments the browning of white adipose tissue

Project description:Canonical WNT pathway in mature adipocytes exacerbates obesity. In this study, we constructed UCP1-positive adipocytes-specific Ctnnb1 knockout mice (UBKO) and observed increased “browning” of white adipose tissue (WAT) following cold exposure or CL-316,243 administration compared to controls. UBKO mice also displayed increased energy expenditure. Furthermore, β-catenin (encoded by Ctnnb1) inhibited thermogenic genes expression in differentiated beige adipocytes and repressed Ucp1 expression at transcription level. Transcriptome analysis revealed UBKO mice treated with CL-316,243 had enhanced mitochondrial function and downregulated immunerelated genes in WAT. Improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity were observed in 50-week-old UBKO mice. Public datasets indicated CTNNB1 expression inversely correlated with several thermogenic genes expression in human adipose/adipocytes, and positively correlated with body mass index (BMI) or waist-hip ratio (WHR). We proposed that intervention of β-catenin in adipocytes could be an effective strategy to enhance energy expenditure and improve age-related metabolic performance.

Genome-wide maps of Dnmt1-dependent DNA methylome in adipocytes

Project description:White adipose tissue (WAT) is a key regulator of systemic energy metabolism, and impaired WAT plasticity characterized by enlargement of preexisting adipocytes associates with WAT dysfunction, obesity and metabolic complications. However, the mechanisms that retain proper adipose tissue plasticity required for metabolic fitness are unclear. Here, we comprehensively showed that adipocyte-specific DNA methylation, manifested in enhancers and CTCF sites, directs distal enhancer-mediated transcriptomic features required to conserve metabolic functions of white adipocytes. Particularly, genetic ablation of adipocyte Dnmt1, the major methylation writer, led to increased adiposity characterized by increased adipocyte hypertrophy along with reduced expansion of adipocyte precursors (APs). These effects of Dnmt1 deficiency provoked systemic hyperlipidemia and impaired energy metabolism both in lean and obese mice. Mechanistically, Dnmt1 deficiency abrogated mitochondrial bioenergetics by inhibiting mitochondrial fission and promoted aberrant lipid metabolism in adipocytes, rendering adipocyte hypertrophy and WAT dysfunction. Dnmt1-dependent DNA methylation prevented aberrant CTCF binding and, in turn, sustained the proper chromosome architecture to permit interactions between enhancer and dynamin-related protein gene Drp1 in adipocytes. Also, adipose DNMT1 expression inversely correlated with adiposity and markers of metabolic health, but positively correlated with AP-specific markers in obese human subjects. Thus, these findings support strategies utilizing Dnmt1 action on mitochondrial bioenergetics in adipocytes to combat obesity and related metabolic pathology.

RNA-seq comparison of CD81 positive and negative cells in subcutaneous and visceral white fat and brown fat tissues in mouse

Project description:Subcutaneous white adipose tissue (scWAT) is known to undergo browning in response to cold exposure. The goal of this study is to identify elusive precursors found within scWAT that possess the ability to differentiate into beige adipocytes. A single cell transcriptomics experiment conducted by us identified the tetraspanin CD81 as a marker of adipose precursor cells (APC) that can convert to beige upon cold exposure. However, what distinguishes a CD81 positive APC from its CD81 negative counterpart in the same tissue, or in a different tissue remains unknown. Therefore, we applied bulk RNA-seq to sorted populations of Lineage negative Sca1+, CD81+/ CD81- cells from subcutaneous and visceral WAT, and brown adipose tissue to decipher the molecular underpinnings that render a CD81+ APC residing in scWAT, beige in response to browning.

ZFP423 Controls EBF2 Co-activator Recruitment and PPARgamma Occupancy to Determine the Thermogenic Plasticity of Adipocytes_ChIP-seq

Project description:Energy-storing white adipocytes maintain their identity by suppressing the gene program defining energy-burning thermogenic brown/beige adipocytes. Here, we reveal that the protein-protein interaction between the transcriptional co-regulator ZFP423 and brown/beige cell determination factor, EBF2, is essential for restraining the thermogenic phenotype of white adipose tissue (WAT). Disruption of the ZFP423-EBF2 protein interaction through CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing triggers widespread “browning” of WAT in adult mice. Mechanistically, adipocyte Zfp423 deficiency induces an EBF2 NuRD-to-BAF co-regulator switch and a shift in PPARgamma occupancy to thermogenic genes. This shift in PPARgamma occupancy increases the anti-diabetic efficacy of the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone in obesity while diminishing the unwanted weight-gaining effect of the drug. These data indicate that ZFP423 controls EBF2 co-activator recruitment and PPARgamma occupancy to determine the thermogenic plasticity of adipocytes and raise the concept of targeting transcriptional brakes in adipocyte gene expression as a therapeutic strategy to induce thermogenic adipocyte biogenesis in obesity.

Brown and beige adipose tissue regulate systemic metabolism through a metabolite interorgan signaling axis

Project description:Brown and beige adipose tissue are emerging as distinct endocrine organs. These tissues are functionally associated with skeletal muscle, adipose tissue metabolism and systemic energy expenditure, suggesting an interorgan signaling network. Using metabolomics, we identify 3-methyl-2-oxovaleric acid, 5-oxoproline, and β-hydroxyisobutyric acid as small molecule metabokines synthesized in browning adipocytes and secreted via monocarboxylate transporters. 3-methyl-2-oxovaleric acid, 5-oxoproline and β-hydroxyisobutyric acid induce a brown adipocyte-specific phenotype in white adipocytes and mitochondrial oxidative energy metabolism in skeletal myocytes both in vitro and in vivo. 3-methyl-2-oxovaleric acid and 5-oxoproline signal through cAMP-PKA-p38 MAPK and β-hydroxyisobutyric acid via mTOR. In humans, plasma and adipose tissue 3-methyl-2-oxovaleric acid, 5-oxoproline and β-hydroxyisobutyric acid concentrations correlate with markers of adipose browning and inversely associate with body mass index. These metabolites reduce adiposity, increase energy expenditure and improve glucose and insulin homeostasis in mouse models of obesity and diabetes. Our findings identify beige adipose-brown adipose-muscle physiological metabokine crosstalk.
