Mural Cell ZFP423 Controls Adipose Tissue Macrophage Accrual in Obesity [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Chronic low-grade visceral white adipose tissue (WAT) inflammation is a hallmark of metabolic syndrome in obesity. Here, we demonstrate that a specific subpopulation of adipose tissue perivascular (PDGFRb+) stromal cells, termed “fibro-inflammatory progenitors” (FIPs), activate pro-inflammatory signaling cascades shortly after the onset of high-fat diet feeding of mice and control the accumulation of pro-inflammatory macrophages in WAT. The activation of FIPs is mediated by the downregulation of ZFP423, identified here as a transcriptional co-regulator of NFkB. Biochemical analysis of ZFP423-protein complexes and ChIP-seq analysis reveal that ZFP423 suppresses the DNA-binding capacity of the p65 subunit of NFkB by inducing a co-regulator switch. Doxycycline-inducible expression of Zfp423 in PDGFRb+ cells suppresses inflammatory signaling in FIPs and attenuates macrophage accumulation within visceral WAT of obese mice. Conversely, inducible inactivation of Zfp423 in PDGFRb+ cells increases FIP activity, exacerbates adipose macrophage accrual, and promotes WAT dysfunction in obese mice. These studies implicate mural cells as sentinels and gatekeepers of adipose tissue inflammation in obesity.

Perivascular Mesenchymal Cells Control Adipose Tissue Macrophage Accrual in Obesity

Project description:Chronic low-grade visceral white adipose tissue (WAT) inflammation is a hallmark of metabolic syndrome in obesity. Here, we demonstrate that a subpopulation of adipose tissue perivascular (PDGFRb+) cells, termed “fibro-inflammatory progenitors” (FIPs), activate pro-inflammatory signaling cascades shortly after the onset of high-fat diet feeding of mice and regulate pro-inflammatory macrophage accumulation in WAT in a TLR4-dependent manner. FIPs activation in obesity is mediated by the downregulation of ZFP423, identified here as a transcriptional co-regulator of NFkB. Biochemical analysis of ZFP423-protein complexes and ChIP-seq analysis reveal that ZFP423 suppresses the DNA-binding capacity of the p65 subunit of NFkB by inducing a p300 to NuRD co-regulator switch. Doxycycline-inducible expression of Zfp423 in PDGFRb+ cells suppresses inflammatory signaling in FIPs and attenuates metabolic inflammation of visceral WAT in obesity. Inducible inactivation of Zfp423 in PDGFRb+ cells increases FIP activity, exacerbates adipose macrophage accrual, and promotes WAT dysfunction. These studies implicate perivascular mesenchymal cells as important regulators of chronic adipose tissue inflammation in obesity and identify ZFP423 as a transcriptional break on NFkB signaling.

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.

Resveratrol improves adipose insulin signaling and reduces the inflammatory response in adipose tissue of rhesus monkeys on a high-fat, high-sugar diet.

Project description:Obesity is associated with a chronic, low-grade, systemic inflammation that may contribute to the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Resveratrol, a natural compound with anti-inflammatory properties, is shown to improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in obese mice and humans. Here we tested the effect of a 2-year resveratrol administration on the pro-inflammatory profile and insulin resistance caused by a high-fat, high-sugar (HFS) diet in white adipose tissue (WAT) from rhesus monkeys. Eighty mg/day of resveratrol for 12-month followed by 480 mg/day for the second year decreased adipocyte size, increased sirtuin 1 expression, decreased NF-kB activation and improved insulin sensitivity in visceral but not subcutaneous WAT from HFS-fed animals. These effects were reproduced in 3T3-L1 adipocytes cultured in media supplemented with serum from monkeys fed HFS +/- resveratrol diets. In conclusion, chronic administration of resveratrol exerts beneficial metabolic and inflammatory adaptations in visceral WAT from diet-induced obese monkeys.

Microarray analysis of CD9high and CD9low progenitors isolated from epididymal adipose from lean C3H/HeOuJ mice

Project description:Obesity-induced white adipose tissue (WAT) fibrosis is believed to accelerate WAT dysfunction. However, the cellular origin of WAT fibrosis remains unclear. We showed that adipocyte platelet-derived growth factor receptor-a-positive (PDGFRa+) progenitors adopt a fibrogenic phenotype in obese C3H/HeOuJ (C3H) mice prone to visceral WAT fibrosis. Two progenitor populations could be distinguished in the epididymal white adipose tissue (EpiWAT) of lean C3H mice, based on CD9 expression. In the fibrotic EpiWAT of obese C3H animals, the PDGFRa+CD9low subset is almost completely lost while the density of PDGFRa+CD9high progenitor markedly increase. To further gain insight into the functional differences between the CD9high and CD9low progenitor subsets, we performed transcriptomic profiling of FACS-sorted progenitor populations isolated from EpiWAT of lean C3H mice.

Obesity drives depot-specific vascular remodeling in white adipose tissue

Project description:Obesity-driven pathological expansion of white adipose tissue (WAT) is a key driver of endothelial dysfunction. Contrary to this paradigm, early vascular alterations associated with over nutrition also exacerbate AT dysfunction. To dissect this complex cause and consequence relationship, here we perform a single-cell transcriptomics screen to generate a detailed landscape of endothelial heterogeneity and vascular alterations in murine model of obesity. Given the differences in ontogeny and function of distinct WAT depots, we demarcate key differences in subcutaneous and visceral WAT vasculature. In addition to descriptive taxonomy, we perform in-depth validation and characterization of our in silico data. We identify a sWAT specific fenestrated endothelial cell subtype, which is drastically reduced in obese conditions. This reduction was associated with a decrease in VEGFA expressing perivascular cells. The novel endothelial subtypes provide a basis for future research and new directions for therapeutic interventions.

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.

Deep subcutaneous adipose tissue (dSAT) vs. superficial subcutaneous adipose (sSAT)

Project description:In addition to total body fat, the regional distribution and inflammatory status of enlarged adipose tissue are strongly linked to metabolic and cardiovascular complications of obesity. We recently showed that the severity of liver non-alcoholic histopathology in obese subjects increased with the amounts of macrophages in visceral adipose tissue (VAT), while no relation was found with the subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). In the abdominal region, SAT is anatomically divided into superficial (sSAT) and deep (dSAT) layers. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that these distinct compartments differentially contribute to hepatic alteration in obesity. Total RNA was isolated from two different strata of human adipose tissue of 8 subjects.
