Schisandra chinensis-derived gomisin C suppreses lipid accumulation by JAK2-STAT signaling in adipocyte.

ABSTRACT: Gomisin C is a lignan isolated from the fruit of Schisandra chinensis. The current study aimed to investigate the effect of gomisin C on lipid accumulation in adipocytes and its underlying mechanism. Gomisin C effectively inhibited lipid accumulation by downregulating adipogenic factors such as PPARγ and C/EBPα. Gomisin C-mediated suppression of lipid accumulation occurred in the early adipogenic stage; C/EBPβ was downregulated by 55%, while KLF2 was upregulated by 1.5-fold. Gomisin C significantly reduced the production of reactive oxygen species but upregulated antioxidant enzymes, including catalase, SOD1, and Gpx at the mRNA level. Gomisin C regulated NRF2-KEAP1 pathway by increasing NRF2 and decreasing KEAP1, in protein abundance. Furthermore, gomisin C suppressed the JAK2-STAT signaling pathway by decreasing phosphorylation. Taken together, gomisin C reduced early adipogenesis and ROS production by inhibiting the JAK2-STAT signaling pathway but activating the NRF2-KEAP1 signaling pathway.

Project description:Aims/introductionHigh glucose increases the accumulation of lipid droplets in hepatocytes, which eventually results in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in patients with diabetes. However, the specific mechanism or communication between adipocyte and hepatocyte lipid metabolism is still ambiguous.Materials and methodsIn this study, exosomes released from human adipocytes were isolated and identified by their morphology, size, and marker proteins by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and western blotting (WB). Gene expression was detected by qRT-PCR and WB. Lipid accumulation was determined by oil red O staining and analyses of total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) content.ResultsOur results showed that co-culture of HepG2 cells with adipocytes under high glucose conditions stimulated lipid deposition and LINC01705 expression in the HepG2 cells. Exosomes extracted from adipocytes cultured under high glucose conditions had higher levels of LINC01705 than exosomes extracted from adipocytes cultured under normal glucose conditions. Moreover, LINC01705 expression was also elevated in exosomes extracted from diabetes patients when compared with exosomes isolated from normal volunteers, and exosomes from patients who had diabetes complicated with fatty liver (DCFL) had the highest levels of LINC01705 expression. Treatment of HepG2 cells with exosomes extracted from high glucose-stimulated adipocytes promoted lipid deposition and LINC01705 expression in HepG2 cells. Further experiments showed that overexpression of LINC01705 promoted HepG2 lipid metabolism, while inhibition of LINC01705 had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, LINC01705 competitively bound to miR-552-3p, and treatment with miR-552-3p inhibitor reversed the effects induced by LINC01705 knockdown. Moreover, miR-552-3p was found to regulate the transcription activity of LXRα and thereby modulate lipid metabolism-related gene expression.ConclusionsWhen taken together, our findings showed that high glucose increased the LINC01705 levels in adipocyte exosomes, and thereby improved HepG2 lipid accumulation via an miR-552-3p/LXR axis.
