Project description:Deficiency of the epigenome modulator histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) in brown adipose tissue (BAT) impairs the ability of mice to survive in near-freezing temperatures. Here, we report that short-term exposure to mild cold temperature (STEMCT: 15°C for 24 hours) averted lethal hypothermia of mice lacking HDAC3 in BAT (HDAC3 BAT KO) exposed to 4°C. STEMCT restored the induction of the thermogenic coactivator PGC-1a along with UCP1 at 22°C, which is greatly impaired in HDAC3-deficient BAT, and deletion of either UCP1 or PGC-1a prevented the protective effect of STEMCT. Remarkably, the protection of HDAC3 BAT KO mice from cold intolerance following STEMCT lasted for up to 7 days. Transcriptional activator C/EBPb was induced by short-term cold exposure in mouse and human BAT and, uniquely, remained high for 7 days following STEMCT. Furthermore, analysis of C/EBPb activity revealed increased binding following STEMCT at genes, including the enhancers/promotors of UCP1 and PGC-1a. These results reveal the existence of a cold-adaptive epigenomic memory mediated by C/EBPb that is persistent and HDAC3-independent.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic organ that requires Uncoupling Protein 1 (UCP1) to dissipate chemical energy as heat, to defend core body temperature against hypothermia, and counteract obesity and metabolic diseases1. However, the transcriptional mechanism ensuring BAT thermogenic capacity for survival prior to environmental cold is unknown. Here we show histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is a required transcriptional regulator of BAT enhancers to ensure thermogenic aptitude and survival. Mice with genetic ablation of HDAC3 become severely hypothermic and fail to survive acute cold exposure. UCP1 is nearly absent in BAT lacking HDAC3 and there is marked down-regulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) genes. Remarkably, although HDAC3 canonically functions as a transcriptional corepressor2, HDAC3 functions as a coactivator of the estrogen-related receptor _ (ERR_) in BAT, and loss of HDAC3 leads to robust global down-regulation of ERR±-driven enhancers. HDAC3 coactivation of ERR_ is mediated through deacetylation of PGC-1_ and is required for basal transcription of Ucp1, OXPHOS, and Pgc-1_. Thus, HDAC3 uniquely primes Ucp1 and thermogenic gene transcription to ensure immediate BAT-driven thermogenesis upon acute exposure to dangerously cold temperatures.

Project description:Activation of thermogenic brown adipose tissue (BAT) and inducible beige adipose tissue (BeAT) is triggered by environmental or metabolic stimuli, including cold ambient temperatures and nutrient stress. Thioesterase superfamily member 1 (Them1), a long chain fatty acyl-CoA thioesterase that is enriched in BAT, suppresses acute cold-induced thermogenesis. Here, we demonstrate that Them1 expression was induced in BAT and BeAT by the carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP) in response to chronic cold exposure or to the activation of the integrated stress response (ISR). Under either condition, Them1 suppressed energy expenditure. Consequently, mice lacking Them1 in BAT and BeAT exhibited resistance to obesity and glucose intolerance induced by feeding with a high-fat diet. During chronic cold exposure or ISR activation, Them1 accumulated in the nucleus, where it interacted with ChREBP and reduced the expression of its target genes, including those encoding enzymes that mediate glycolysis and de novo lipogenesis. These findings demonstrate that in response to chronic cold- or nutrient-induced stress, the induction of Them1 by ChREBP limits thermogenesis while coordinately reducing glucose utilization and lipid biosynthesis through its distinct activities in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Targeted inhibition of Them1 may represent a potential therapeutic approach to increase the activity of BAT and BeAT to enhance energy expenditure in the management of obesity-associated metabolic disorders.

Project description:Objective: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is important for thermoregulation in many mammals. Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is the critical regulator of thermogenesis in BAT. Here we aimed to investigate the deacetylation control of BAT and to investigate a possible functional connection between UCP1 and sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), the master mitochondrial deacetylase.
Methods: We carried out physiological, molecular and proteomic analyses of BAT from wild-type and Sirt3KO mice when BAT is activated. Mice were either cold exposed for 2 days or were injected with the β3-adrenergic agonist, CL316,243 (1mg/kg; i.p.). Mutagenesis studies were conducted in a cellular model to assess the impact of acetyaltion lysine sites on UCP1 function. Cardiac punctures were collected for Proteomic analysis of Acylcarnitines. Isolated mitochondria were used for functional analysis of OXPHOS.
Results: Our findings showed that SIRT3 absence in mice resulted in impaired BAT lipid use, whole body thermoregulation, and respiration in BAT mitochondria, without affecting UCP1 expression. Acetylome profiling of BAT mitochondria revealed that SIRT3 regulates acetylation status of many BAT mitochondrial proteins including UCP1 and crucial upstream proteins. Mutagenesis work in cells suggested that UCP1 activity was independent of direct SIRT3-regulated lysine acetylation. However, SIRT3 impacted BAT mitochondrial activities of acylcarnitine metabolism and specific electron transport chain complexes, CI and CII.

Project description:In acute cold stress in mammals, JMJD1A, an H3K9 demethylase, up-regulates thermogenic gene expressions through β-adrenergic signaling in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Aside BAT-driven thermogenesis, mammals also have another mechanism to cope with long-term cold stress by inducing the browning of subcutaneous white adipose tissue (scWAT). Here, we show that this occurs through a two-step process that requires both β-adrenergic dependent phosphorylation of S265 and demethylation of H3K9me2 by JMJD1A. The histone demethylation independent acute Ucp1 induction in BAT and demethylation dependent chronic Ucp1 expression in beige-scWAT provide complementary molecular mechanisms to ensure an ordered transition between acute and chronic adaptation to cold stress. JMJD1A mediates two major signaling pathways, namlely β-adrenergic receptor and PPARγ activation, via PRDM16-PPARγ-P-JMJD1A complex for beige adipogenesis.
