Project description:Using, scRNA Seq transcriptomic analysis, we report that Pdgra+ fibroblasts in mouse lung have significant heterogenity in normal and fibrotic lung, and key pathways involved in lipogenic and fibrogenic pathways govern the transition of normal lipofibroblasts from a normal to a myofibroblast phenotype following lung injury

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse liver comparing control, scrambled-oligonucleotides (Cont)-treated mice with Perilipin 2-antisense oligonucleotides (Plin2-ASO)-treated mice. C57BL/6 mice on a high-fat diet were treated with oligonucleotides in vivo. The goal was to determine the effects of Plin2 down-regulation in the liver on global gene expression. Two-condition experiment, control oligonucleotides vs. Plin2-antisense oligonucleotides. Biological replicates: 4 control replicates, 4 Plin2-ASO replicates.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes is characterized by excessive lipid storage in skeletal muscle. Excessive intramyocellular lipid storage exceeds intracellular needs and induces lipotoxic events ultimately contributing to the development of insulin resistance. Lipid droplet (LD)-coating proteins may control proper lipid storage in skeletal muscle. Perilipin 2 (PLIN2/ADRP) is one of the most abundantly expressed LD-coating proteins in skeletal muscle. Here we examined the role of PLIN2 in myocellular lipid handling and insulin sensitivity by investigating the effects of in vitro PLIN2 knockdown and in vitro and in vivo overexpression. PLIN2 knockdown decreased LD formation and triacylglycerol storage, marginally increased FA oxidation, and increased incorporation of palmitate into diacylglycerols and phospholipids. PLIN2 overexpression in vitro increased intramyocellular TAG storage paralleled with improved insulin sensitivity. In vivo muscle-specific PLIN2 overexpression resulted in increased LD accumulation and blunted the high-fat diet-induced increase of OXPHOS protein content. Diacylglycerol levels were unchanged, while ceramide levels were increased. Despite the increased intramyocellular lipid accumulation, PLIN2 overexpression improved skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity. We conclude that PLIN2 is essential for lipid storage in skeletal muscle by enhancing the partitioning of excess FAs towards triacylglycerol storage in LDs thereby blunting lipotoxicity-associated insulin resistance. C2C12 cells (mouse myoblast cell line) were treated with fatty acids and effects of knockdown of Perilipin 2 by siRNA were studied by gene expression profiling.

Project description:Perilipin 2 (Plin2) binds to the surface of hepatic lipid droplets (LDs) with expression levels that correlate with triacylglyceride (TAG) content. We investigated if Plin2 is important for hepatic LD storage in fasted or high-fat diet-induced obese Plin2+/+ and Plin2-/- mice. Plin2-/- mice had comparable body weights, metabolic phenotype, glucose tolerance, and circulating TAG and total cholesterol levels compared to Plin2+/+ mice, regardless of the dietary regime. Both fasted and high-fat fed Plin2-/- mice stored reduced levels of hepatic TAG compared to Plin2+/+ mice. Fasted Plin2-/- mice stored fewer, but larger hepatic lipid droplets compared to Plin2+/+ mice. Detailed hepatic lipid analysis showed substantial reductions in accumulated TAG species in fasted Plin2-/- mice compared to Plin2+/+ mice, whereas cholesteryl esters and phosphatidylcholines were increased. RNA sequencing revealed minor differences in hepatic gene expression between fed Plin2+/+ and Plin2-/- mice, in contrast to marked differences in gene expression between fasted Plin2+/+ and Plin2-/- mice. Our findings demonstrate that Plin2 is required to regulate hepatic lipid droplet size and storage of neutral lipid species in the fasted state, while its role in obesity-induced steatosis is less clear.

Project description:Huntington’s disease (HD) is a dominantly inherited genetic disease caused by mutant huntingtin (htt) protein with expanded polyglutamine tracts. A neuropathological hallmark of HD is the presence of neuronal inclusions of mutant htt. p62 is an important regulatory protein in selective autophagy, a process by which aggregated proteins are degraded, and it is associated with several neurodegenerative disorders including HD. Here we investigated the effect of p62 depletion in three HD model mice: R6/2, HD190QG and HD120QG mice. We found that loss of p62 in these models led to longer lifespans and reduced nuclear inclusions, although cytoplasmic inclusions increased with polyglutamine length. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) with or without p62, mutant htt with a nuclear localization signal (NLS) showed no difference in nuclear inclusion between the two MEF types. In the case of mutant htt without NLS, however, p62 depletion increased cytoplasmic inclusions. Furthermore, to examine the effect of impaired autophagy in HD model mice, we crossed R6/2 mice with Atg5 conditional knockout mice. These mice also showed decreased nuclear inclusions and increased cytoplasmic inclusions, similar to HD mice lacking p62. These data suggest that the genetic ablation of p62 in HD model mice enhances cytoplasmic inclusion formation by interrupting autophagic clearance of polyQ inclusions. This reduces polyQ nuclear influx and paradoxically ameliorates disease phenotypes by decreasing toxic nuclear inclusions. Gene expression profiles were analyzed to examine the effects of p62 depletion in mouse with or without mutant huntingtin exon 1

We extracted total RNA from the striatum of these mice at 8 weeks and used for a microaaray analysis. The samples are HD transgenic mice with p62 knockout (HD_p62KO), HD mice with normal p62 (HD_p62WT), non-HD-transgenic mice with p62 knockout (NT_p62KO), and non-HD-transgenic mice with normal p62 (NT_p62WT).
