A unique adipocyte progenitor population that promotes age-related adiposity

ABSTRACT: The average fat (adipose tissue) mass in adults increases dramatically with age, and older people often suffer from visceral obesity and related adverse metabolic disorders. Unfortunately, how aging leads to adipose accumulation is poorly understood. It is known that fat cell (adipocyte) turnover is very low in young mice, similar to that in young humans. Single-cell RNA sequencing analyses reveal that aging globally remodels APCs. Herein, we identify a novel, age-specific committed APC population as CP-A cells, existing both in mice and humans, with a global activation of proliferation and adipogenesis pathways. CP-A cells display high proliferation and adipogenesis activity, both in vivo and in vitro. M1 macrophages may regulate the remodeling of APCs and the generation of CP-A cells during aging.

Transcription profiling of rat Perirenal and epididymal preadipocytes isolated from old and young individuals

Project description:Inherent depot- and age-dependent preadipocyte characteristics may contribute to age-related fat redistribution. Both aging and depot origin affect preadipocyte replication and adipogenesis. To define responsible mechanisms, we analyzed genome-wide expression profiles in epididymal (E) and perirenal (P) preadipocytes cultured from young (3 month) and old (30m) rats. Differences between depots were distinct from and more dramatic than those that occur with aging. Experiment Overall Design: Preadipocytes were isolated from perirenal and epididymal fat depots of 3 young (3 month) and 3 old (30 month) Brown Norway rats for a total of 12 samples from 6 different animals.

Nck2 Regulates Adiposity and Adiposity-Related Metabolic Disorders in Mice and Human

Project description:Obesity is linked to the development of metabolic disorders. Expansion of white adipose tissue (WAT) from hypertrophy of pre-existing adipocytes and/or differentiation of precursors into new mature adipocytes contributes to obesity. We found that Nck2 expression is largely restricted to WAT, raising the hypothesis that it may play a unique function in that tissue. Using mice lacking Nck2, we found that Nck2 regulates adipocyte hypertrophy thus contributing to increased adiposity and progressive glucose intolerance, insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis. These findings were recapitulated in humans such that Nck2 expression in omental WAT was inversely correlated with the degree of obesity. Mechanistically, Nck2 deficiency promoted the induction of an adipocyte differentiation program and signaling by the PERK-eIF2Î±-ATF4 pathway in agreement with a role for the unfolded protein response in adipogenesis. These findings uncover Nck2 as a novel regulator of adipogenesis and that perturbation in its functionality contributes to adiposity-related metabolic disorders.

Aging impairs cold-induced beige adipogenesis and adipocyte metabolic reprogramming [single-cell RNA-seq]

Project description:The energy-burning capability of beige adipose tissue is a potential therapeutic tool for reducing obesity and metabolic disease, but this capacity is decreased by aging. Here, we evaluate the impact of aging on the profile and activity of adipogenic precursor cells (APCs) through single cell gene expression analysis of inguinal white adipose tissue of young and aged mice through in response to cold exposure.

BMPER: a novel adipose progenitor marker and adipogenic modulator

Project description:We used single cell sequencing to identify sex and diet-specific differences in visceral adipose progenitor cells (APCs) and to discover new APC markers and adipogenic modulators. We identified the major clusters that were previously identified by other studies both in humans and mice with the notable difference being in the mesothelial cluster, which was more abundant in humans than mice. We found that diet/obesity resulted in minor differences in the proportions of major clusters in humans but increased immune cells in male mice with high fat feeding. Most importantly, we identified BMPER as a novel marker of APCs both in humans and mice and revealed its pro-adipogenic property.

Identification of metabolically distinct adipocyte progenitor cells in human adipose tissues

Project description:Adipocyte progenitor cells (APCs) provide the reservoir of regenerative cells to produce new adipocytes, although their identity in humans remains elusive. Using FACS analysis, gene expression profiling and metabolic and proteomic analyses, we identified three APCs subtypes in human white adipose tissues. The APC subtypes are molecularly distinct but possess similar proliferative and adipogenic capacities. Adipocytes derived from APCs with high CD34 expression exhibit exceedingly high rates of lipid flux compared with APCs with low or no CD34 expression, while adipocytes produced from CD34- APCs display beige-like adipocyte properties and a unique endocrine profile. APCs were more abundant in gluteofemoral compared with abdominal subcutaneous and omental adipose tissues, and the distribution of APC subtypes varies between depots and in patients with type 2 diabetes. These findings provide a mechanistic explanation for the heterogeneity of human white adipose tissue and a potential basis for dysregulated adipocyte function in type 2 diabetes.

Transcriptome analysis of fibroblast subpopulations isolated from neonatal murine dermis.

Project description:During aging, stromal functions are thought to be impaired, yet little is known whether this stems from molecular and cellular changes of fibroblasts, a major component of stroma. Using population- and single-cell whole transcriptomics, and long-term lineage tracing, we studied alterations in murine dermal fibroblasts during physiological aging under different dietary regimes known to affect longevity. We show that the identity of aged fibroblasts becomes undefined, with the distinct fibroblast states present in young skin no longer clearly demarcated. In addition, old fibroblasts not only reduce the expression of genes involved in the formation of the extracellular matrix, but intriguingly, also gain adipogenic traits, paradoxically becoming similar to neonatal pro-adipogenic fibroblasts. These age-related alterations are sensitive to systemic changes in metabolism: long-term caloric restriction prevents them in old fibroblasts in a reversible manner, whereas a high-fat diet potentiates them in young fibroblasts. Finally, inhibition of the master regulator of adipogenesis, PPARgamma, attenuates fibroblast aging in vivo, providing potential anti-aging therapeutic alternatives to caloric restriction.
