Adipocyte long noncoding RNA transcriptome analysis of obese mice identified Lnc-leptin which regulates Leptin

ABSTRACT: Obesity induces profound transcriptome changes in adipocytes; recent evidence suggests that lncRNAs play key roles in this process. Here, we performed a comprehensive transcriptome study by RNA-Seq in adipocytes isolated from interscapular brown, inguinal and epididymal white adipose tissues in diet-induced obese mice. Our analysis reveals a set of obesity-dysregulated lncRNAs, many of which exhibit dynamic changes in fed vs. fasted state, potentially serving as novel molecular markers reflecting adipose energy status. Among the most prominent ones is Lnc-leptin, an lncRNA transcribed from an enhancer region upstream of Leptin. Expression of Lnc-leptin is sensitive to insulin and closely correlates to Leptin expression across diverse pathophysiological conditions. Functionally, induction of Lnc-leptin is essential for adipogenesis, and its presence is required for a loop formation between exon2 of Lnc-leptin and promoter of Leptin in mature adipocytes and the maintenance of Leptin expression in vitro and in vivo. Our study establishes Lnc-leptin as a new regulator of Leptin.

A Negative Feedback Loop Between TET2 and Leptin in Adipocyte Regulates Body Weight

Project description:Ten-eleven translocation (TET) 2 is an enzyme that catalyzes DNA demethylation to regulate gene expression by oxidizing 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, functioning as an essential epigenetic regulator in various biological processes. However, the regulation and function of TET2 in adipocytes during obesity are poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate that leptin, a key adipokine in mammalian energy homeostasis regulation, suppresses adipocyte TET2 levels via JAK2-STAT3 signaling. Adipocyte Tet2 deficiency protects against high-fat diet-induced weight gain by reducing leptin levels and further improving leptin sensitivity. By interacting with C/EBPα, adipocyte TET2 increases the hydroxymethylcytosine levels of the leptin gene promoter, thereby promoting leptin gene expression. A decrease in adipose TET2 is associated with obesity-related hyperleptinemia in humans. Inhibition of TET2 suppresses the production of leptin in mature human adipocytes.Our findings support the existence of a negative feedback loop between TET2 and leptin in adipocytes and reveal a novel compensatory mechanism for the body to counteract the metabolic dysfunction caused by obesity.

Expression data of bone marrow and peripheral adipocytes from leptin deficient mice and obese mice fed with a high fat diet

Project description:The aim of this study was to characterize the obesity-related gene expression profiles between bone marrow adipocytes and peripheral white adipocytes from obese mice fed with high fat diet and leptin deficient mice Alterations of gene expression with high fat diet and in mice lacking leptin were analyzed in bone marrow and peripheral white adipocytes isolated from C57BL/6J male mice using Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays. Bone marrow adipocytes and peripheral white adipocytes (n=6-10 animals per group) were isolated from male C57BL/6J mice (6-months, 14-months ) fed with either standard chow or a high fat diet containg 60% calories from fat. Samples were grouped into diet (standard chow vs. high fat diet) and age (6-month (6M), 14-month (14M) and 18-month (18M)).

De novo Reconstruction of Adipose Tissue Transcriptomes Reveals Novel Long Non-coding RNAs that Regulate Brown Adipocyte Development

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) protects against obesity by promoting energy expenditure via uncoupled respiration. To uncover BAT-specific long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), we used RNA-seq to reconstruct de novo transcriptomes of mouse brown, inguinal white, and epididymal white fat and identified ~1500 lncRNAs, including 127 BAT-restricted loci induced during differentiation and often targeted by key regulators PPARγ, C/EBPα and C/EBPβ. One of them, lnc-BATE1, is required for establishment and maintenance of BAT identity and thermogenic capacity. lnc-BATE1 inhibition impairs concurrent activation of brown fat and repression of white fat genes, and is partially rescued by exogenous lnc-BATE1 with mutated siRNA-targeting sites, demonstrating a function in trans. We show that lnc-BATE1 binds heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U and that both are required for brown adipogenesis. Our work provides an annotated catalog for the study of fat depot-selective lncRNAs, available online, and establishes lnc-BATE1 as a novel regulator of BAT development and physiology. Total RNA profiles of BAT, iWAT and eWAT samples were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform

Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling coordinates adipose plasticity and energy balance by uncoupling leptin expression from fat mass

Project description:Adipose tissues serve as an energy reservoir and endocrine organ, yet the mechanisms that coordinate these functions remain elusive. Here, we show that transcriptional coregulators YAP and TAZ mediate the crosstalk between fat mass and leptin levels to maintain metabolic homeostasis. Activating YAP/TAZ in adipocytes by Lats1 and Lats2 deletion results in a profound reduction in fat mass by converting mature adipocytes into delipidated progenitor-like cells. Surprisingly, Lats1/2 knockout mice did not exhibit lipodystrophy-related metabolic dysfunction, attributed to a paradoxical increase in circulating leptin levels. Mechanistically, YAP/TAZ-TEAD signaling upregulates leptin expression by directly binding an upstream enhancer site of the leptin gene. We further show that YAP/TAZ activity is linked to, and functionally required for, leptin regulation during fasting and refeeding. These results suggest that adipocyte Hippo-YAP/TAZ plays an essential role in coordinating adipose storage capacity and systemic energy balance through dual control of adipocyte plasticity and leptin gene transcription.

Leptin responsive neurons

Project description:Genome wide association studies (GWAS) in obesity have identified a large number of noncoding loci located near genes expressed in the central nervous system. However, due to the difficulties in isolating and characterizing specific neuronal subpopulations, very few obesity-associated SNPs have been functionally characterized. Leptin responsive neurons in the hypothalamus are essential in controlling energy homeostasis and body weight. Here, we show that by combining FACS-sorting of leptin-responsive hypothalamic neuron nuclei with genomic approaches (RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq), we can provide a comprehensive map of leptin-response specific regulatory elements, several of which overlap obesity-associated GWAS variants. Further demonstrating the robustness of our leptin-response neuron regulome, we functionally characterize a novel enhancer near Socs3, a leptin response-associated transcription factor. Combined, our results provide a comprehensive map of active genomic regions in leptin-responsive neurons and present a blueprint for functionally characterizing obesity-associated SNPs in the hypothalamus.

A non-canonical-PPARg/RXRa-binding sequence regulates leptin expression in response to changes in adipose tissue mass

Project description:Leptin expression decreases after fat loss and is increased when obesity develops and its proper quantitative regulation is essential for the homeostatic control of fat mass. We previously reported that a distant leptin enhancer (LE1), 16kb upstream from the transcription start site (TSS), confers fat-specific expression in a BAC transgenic reporter mouse (BACTG). However this and the other elements that we identified do not account for the quantitative changes in leptin expression that accompany alterations of adipose mass. In this report, we used ATAC-seq to identify a 17bp non-canonical-PPARγ/RXRα-binding site leptin regulatory element 1 (LepRE1) within LE1, and show that it is necessary for the fat-regulated quantitative control of reporter (luciferase) expression. While BACTG reporter mice with mutations in this sequence still show fat-specific expression, luciferase is no longer decreased after food restriction and weight loss. Similarly the increased expression of leptin reporter associated with obesity in ob/ob mice is impaired. A functionally analogous LepRE1 site is also found in a second, redundant DNA regulatory element 13kb downstream of the TSS. These data uncouple the mechanisms conferring qualitative and quantitative expression of the leptin gene and further suggest that factor(s) that bind to LepRE1 quantitatively control leptin expression and might be components of a lipid sensing system in adipocytes.

De novo reconstruction of human adipose reveals conserved lncRNAs as regulators of brown adipogenesis

Project description:Obesity has emerged as a formidable health crisis due to its association with metabolic risk factors such as diabetes, dyslipidaemia and hypertension. Recent work has demonstrated the multifaceted roles of lncRNAs in regulating mouse adipose development, but its implication in human adipocytes remain largely unknown at least partially due to the lack of a comprehensive lncRNA catalog, particularly those specifically expressed in brown adipose tissue (BAT). In this study, we performed deep RNA-seq on adult subcutaneous, omental and fetal brown adipose tissues to de novo construct a catalog of 3,149 adipose active lncRNAs of which 1,351 are specifically detected in BAT. We further identified 318 lncRNAs conserved between human and mouse which, compared with non-conserved ones, are more broadly expressed in multiple cell types. One of these, lnc-dPRDM16, is transcribed divergently from Prdm16, tightly correlated with Prdm16 (R ≥ 0.7) in both mouse and human, and co-expressed (R ≥ 0.7) with protein-coding genes enriched in lipid and fatty acid catabolic processes. Loss of function of lnc-dPRDM16 led to a down-regulation of Prdm16 and an obvious reduction of adipogenesis in brown adipocyte culture. Together, our work has provided a comprehensive human adipose catalog built from diverse fat types, which when applied to our roadmap, identifies lnc-dPRDM16 as a promising modulator of adipose development for future clinical research.

Gene expression profile of developing adipose tissue in vivo

Project description:Obesity is characterized by an increase in the size and the number of adipocytes. However, the mechanisms responsible for the formation of adipocytes during development and the molecular mechanisms regulating their increase and maintenance in adulthood are poorly understood. Here, we report the use of leptin-luciferase BAC transgenic mice to track white adipose tissue (WAT) development and guide the isolation and molecular characterization of adipocytes during development using DNA microarrays. These data reveal distinct transcriptional programs that are regulated during murine WAT development in vivo. Developing mouse adipose tissue from at least 3 embryos were pooled for embryonic and postnatal time points.
