Pathological roles of bone marrow adipocyte-derived monocyte chemotactic protein-1 in type 2 diabetic mice.

ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has become a prevalent public health concern, with beta-cell dysfunction involved in its pathogenesis. Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) increases in both the quantity and area in individuals with T2DM along with heightened monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) secretion. This study aims to investigate the influence and underlying mechanisms of MCP-1 originating from bone marrow adipocytes (BMAs) on systemic glucose homeostasis in T2DM. Initially, a substantial decrease in the proliferation and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) of islet cells was observed. Moreover, a comparative analysis between the control (Ctrl) group and db/db mice revealed significant alterations in the gene expression profiles of whole bone marrow cells, with a noteworthy upregulation of Mcp-1. And the primary enriched pathways included chemokine signaling pathway and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications. In addition, the level of MCP-1 was distinctly elevated in BMA-derived conditional media (CM), leading to a substantial inhibition of proliferation, GSIS and the protein level of phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) in Min6 cells. After blocking MCP-1 pathway, we observed a restoration of p-Akt and the proliferation of islet cells, resulting in a marked improvement in disordered glucose homeostasis. In summary, there is an accumulation of BMAs in T2DM, which secrete excessive MCP-1, exacerbating the abnormal accumulation of BMAs in the bone marrow cavity through paracrine signaling. The upregulated MCP-1, in turn, worsens glucose metabolism disorder by inhibiting the proliferation and insulin secretion of islet cells through an endocrine pathway. Inhibiting MCP-1 signaling can partially restore the proliferation and insulin secretion of islet cells, ultimately ameliorating glucose metabolism disorder. It's worth noting that to delve deeper into the impact of MCP-1 derived from BMAs on islet cells and its potential mechanisms, it is imperative to develop genetically engineered mice with conditional Mcp-1 knockout from BMAs.

Project description:RationaleHyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) accelerates atherosclerosis and increases inflammatory monocytes (MC) in peripheral tissues. However, its causative role in atherosclerosis is not well established and its effect on vascular inflammation has not been studied. The underlying mechanism is unknown.ObjectiveThis study examined the causative role of HHcy in atherogenesis and its effect on inflammatory MC differentiation.Methods and resultsWe generated a novel HHcy and hyperlipidemia mouse model, in which cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLr) genes were deficient (Ldlr(-/-) Cbs(-/+)). Severe HHcy (plasma homocysteine (Hcy)=275 μmol/L) was induced by a high methionine diet containing sufficient basal levels of B vitamins. Plasma Hcy levels were lowered to 46 μmol/L from 244 μmol/L by vitamin supplementation, which elevated plasma folate levels. Bone marrow (BM)-derived cells were traced by the transplantation of BM cells from enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transgenic mice after sublethal irradiation of the recipient. HHcy accelerated atherosclerosis and promoted Ly6C(high) inflammatory MC differentiation of both BM and tissue origins in the aortas and peripheral tissues. It also elevated plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and MCP-1; increased vessel wall MC accumulation; and increased macrophage maturation. Hcy-lowering therapy reversed HHcy-induced lesion formation, plasma cytokine increase, and blood and vessel inflammatory MC (Ly6C(high+middle)) accumulation. Plasma Hcy levels were positively correlated with plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines. In primary mouse splenocytes, L-Hcy promoted rIFNγ-induced inflammatory MC differentiation, as well as increased TNF-α, IL-6, and superoxide anion production in inflammatory MC subsets. Antioxidants and folic acid reversed L-Hcy-induced inflammatory MC differentiation and oxidative stress in inflammatory MC subsets.ConclusionsHHcy causes vessel wall inflammatory MC differentiation and macrophage maturation of both BM and tissue origins, leading to atherosclerosis via an oxidative stress-related mechanism.

Project description:Diabetes mellitus is a group of chronic diseases characterized by high blood glucose levels. Diabetic patients have a higher risk of sustaining osteoporotic fractures than non-diabetic people. The fracture healing is usually impaired in diabetics, and our understanding of the detrimental effects of hyperglycemia on fracture healing is still inadequate. Metformin is the first-line medicine for type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, its effects on bone in T2D patients remain to be studied. To assess the impacts of metformin on fracture healing, we compared the healing process of closed-wound fixed fracture, non-fixed radial fracture, and femoral drill-hole injury models in the T2D mice with and without metformin treatment. Our results demonstrated that metformin rescued the delayed bone healing and remolding in the T2D mice in all injury models. In vitro analysis indicated that compromised proliferation, osteogenesis, chondrogenesis of the bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) derived from the T2D mice were rescued by metformin treatment when compared to WT controls. Furthermore, metformin could effectively rescue the impaired detrimental lineage commitment of BMSCs isolated from the T2D mice in vivo as assessed by subcutaneous ossicle formation of the BMSC implants in recipient T2D mice. Moreover, the Safranin O staining of cartilage formation in the endochondral ossification under hyperglycemic condition significantly increased at day 14 post-fracture in the T2D mice receiving metformin treatment. The chondrocyte transcript factors SOX9 and PGC1α, important to maintain chondrocyte homeostasis, were both significantly upregulated in callus tissue isolated at the fracture site of metformin-treated MKR mice on day 12 post-fracture. Metformin also rescued the chondrocyte disc formation of BMSCs isolated from the T2D mice. Taken together, our study demonstrated that metformin facilitated bone healing, more specifically bone formation and chondrogenesis in T2D mouse models.
