Project description:Thermogenesis is a promising approach to limit weight gain in response to excess nutrition. In contrast to cold-induced thermogenesis, the molecular and cellular mechanisms of diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) have not been fully characterized. Here, we explored the response of brown adipose tissue (BAT) and beige adipose tissue to high fat diet (HFD) using proteome and phosphoproteome analysis. We observed that after HFD, DIT was only activated in BAT. Furthermore, fatty acid oxidation, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation were also activated in BAT. Nevertheless, most metabolic pathways downregulated in beige adipose tissue. Strikingly, we found that these metabolic changes accompanied with different variation of mitochondria between BAT and beige adipose tissue as well. HFD treatment impaired mitochondrial functions and mitochondrial protein synthesis in beige adipose tissue while it stimulated mitochondrial autophagy in BAT. Together, in BAT, HFD caused increased mitochondrial activity,

Project description:Obesity results from a caloric imbalance between energy intake, absorption and expenditure. In both rodents and humans, diet-induced thermogenesis contributes to energy expenditure and involves the activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT). We hypothesized that environmental toxicants commonly used as food additives or pesticides might reduce BAT thermogenesis through suppression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and this may contribute to the development of obesity. Using a step-wise screening approach, we discovered that the organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos suppresses UCP1 and mitochondrial respiration in BAT at concentrations as low as 1 pM. In mice housed at thermoneutrality and fed a high-fat diet, chlorpyrifos impaired BAT mitochondrial function and diet-induced thermogenesis, promoting greater obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and insulin resistance. This was associated with reductions in cAMP; activation of p38MAPK and AMPK; protein kinases critical for maintaining UCP1 and mitophagy, respectively in BAT. These data indicate that the commonly used pesticide chlorpyrifos, suppresses diet-induced thermogenesis and the activation of BAT, suggesting its use may contribute to the obesity epidemic.

Project description:Study designed to identify genes that are induced in both BAT and skeletal muscle during acute adaptive thermogenesis in mouse using gene expression microarray. Animal studies were performed under approved UCLA animal research protocols and according to guidelines established in the Guide for Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. C57BL/6J mice were maintained in 12-h light/dark conditions and fed a regular chow diet (Purina 50010, Lab Diet, USA). Cold exposure was performed as described. After euthanasia, tissues were collected and frozen until use. Total RNA was isolated from mouse tissues by extraction with TRIzol from either brown adipose tissue (BAT) or skeletal muscle (quadriceps) after exposure to cold (4 degrees C for 4 hours). The mice were of the C57BL/6J strain and were maintained in 12-h light/dark conditions and fed a laboratory chow diet that consisted of 4.5% fat, 50% carbohydrate by weight (Lab Diet, Purina 50010).

Project description:Adaptive thermogenesis of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is critical for thermoregulation and contributes to total energy expenditure. However, whether BAT has non-thermogenic functions is largely unknown. Here, we describe that mice with a BAT-specific Liver kinase b1 deletion (Lkb1BKO mice) exhibited impaired mitochondrial respiration and thermogenesis in BAT, but reduced adiposity and liver triglyceride accumulation under high-fat-diet feeding at room temperature. Importantly, these metabolic benefits were also present in Lkb1BKO mice at thermoneutrality, where BAT thermogenesis was not required. Mechanistically, decreased mRNA levels of mtDNA-encoded electron transport chain (ETC) subunits and ETC proteome imbalance led to impaired mitochondrial respiration in BAT of Lkb1BKO mice. Furthermore, reducing mtDNA gene expression directly in BAT by removing mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) in BAT also showed ETC proteome imbalance and the tradeoff between BAT thermogenesis and systemic metabolism at both room temperature and thermoneutrality. Collectively, our data demonstrates that ETC proteome imbalance in BAT regulates systemic metabolism independently of BAT thermogenic capacity.

Project description:Activated brown adipose tissue contributes to control of energy and glucose homeostasis in rodents and humans. Defining cell-autonomous processes underlying BAT differentiation and activation may thus reveal novel therapeutic targets for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus intervention. Here we show that ageing- and obesity-associated demises in BAT function coincide with down-regulation of mature microRNAs in BAT in the presence of reduced expression of the critical microRNA processing enzyme Dicer1. To mimic this partial down-regulation of microRNA processing in obesity and ageing, we inactivated one allele of Dicer1 selectively in BAT of mice. BAT- restricted heterozygosity of Dicer1 caused glucose intolerance in lean mice and aggravated diet-induced-obesity (DIO)-evoked deterioration of glucose homeostasis. Using combinatorial analyses of altered microRNA-expression in BAT during in vitro preadipocyte commitment and mouse models of progeria, longevity and DIO, we identified 23 microRNAs dysregulated among these conditions. Of these, we identified miR-328 as a novel regulator of BAT differentiation. miR-328 over-expression promotes BAT-differentiation and impairs muscle progenitor commitment, while reducing miR-328 expression blocks BAT specification. We validated the ß-Secretase Bace1 as a target of miR-328, which is consequently over-expressed in BAT of obese and premature ageing mice. Reducing Bace1 expression enhances brown adipocyte, while impairing myogenic differentiation in vitro. In vivo small-molecule Bace1 inhibition in obese mice delayed DIO-induced weight gain, ameliorated obesity-associated deterioration of glucose metabolism and improved insulin sensitivity. Collectively, these experiments reveal reduced Dicer1-miR-328-Bace1 axis in presence of generalized impairment of microRNA processing in ageing and obesity as a novel determinant of ageing- and obesity-associated decline in BAT function. This may define in vivo Bace1-inhibition as an innovative therapeutic approach to not only target age-related neurodegenerative diseases but at the same time improving age-related impairment of BAT-function and metabolism. C57BL/6 mice ( 4 weeks of age) were treated with a calory-rich, high-sugar high-fat diet (HFD) for a course of 4 weeks. Then groups were stratified and one group continued to receive HFD (BAT13-15) or HFD supplemented with an experimental small-molecule Bace 1 inhibitor (BAT17, 33, 35).

Project description:Family with sequence similarity 172 member A (FAM172A) protein acts as a key physiological repressor of brown adipose tissue (BAT) activity that plays a key role in energy metabolism. Its expression in BAT is suppressed by cold and other adrenergic stimulators. Mechanistically, FAM172A inhibits BAT activity and thermogenesis, in part, by binding to 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase 1 (BDH1), which subsequently affects the levels of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), a ketone body metabolite closely involved in adipose mitochondrial biogenesis.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT), a crucial heat-generating organ, regulate whole-body energy metabolism by mediating thermogenesis. BAT inflammation is implicated in the pathogenesis of mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired thermogenesis. However, the link between BAT inflammation and systematic metabolism remains unclear. Herein, we sought whether BAT inflammation regulates systematic metabolism and thermogenesis. By using mice with BAT deficiency of thioredoxin-2 (TRX2), a protein that scavenges mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), we evaluated the impact of BAT inflammation on metabolism and thermogenesis and its underlying mechanism. Our results describe that BAT-specific TRX2 ablation improves systematic metabolic performance via enhancing lipid uptake, which protects mice from diet-induced obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance. TRX2 deficiency impairs adaptive thermogenesis by suppressing fatty acid oxidation. Mechanistically, loss of TRX2 induces excessive mitochondrial ROS, mitochondrial integrity disruption, and cytosolic release of mitochondrial DNA, which in turn activate aberrant innate immune responses in BAT, including the cGAS-STING and the NLRP3 inflammasome pathways. We identify NLRP3 as a key converging point, as its inhibition reverses both the thermogenesis defect and the metabolic benefits seen under nutrient overload in BAT-specific Trx2-deficient mice. In conclusion, we identify TRX2 as a critical hub integrating oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid metabolism in BAT; uncovering an adaptive mechanism underlying the link between BAT inflammation and systematic metabolism.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays a central role in energy homeostasis through non-shivering thermogenesis. Besides, recent human studies using 18FDG-PET/CT imaging demonstrated that BAT acts as a significant metabolic-sink for glucose. Notably, these functions in BAT decrease with age: however what regulates this process remains poorly understood. To this end, we employed RNA-seq to identify the transcriptional changes in BAT of young and old mice.

Project description:We performed a genome-wide deep sequencing analysis of the microRNAs abundant in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from murine brown adipose tissue and in in vitro differentiated mature brown adipocytes. Several microRNAs were identified as differentially regulated when comparing datasets from MSCs vs. mature fat cells. These microRNAs may have an implication in the regulation of adipogenesis as well as thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT).
