Eosinophils are mediators of adipose tissue angiogenesis

ABSTRACT: Adipose eosinophils confer protection against obesity and metabolic disease, yet the mechanism by which adipose eosinophils mediate this process is incompletely understood. Here we found that transgenic elevation of adipose eosinophil number results in increased adipose tissue levels of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), with resulting elevation in adipose tissue vascularisation and production of thermogenic beige fat. We found that this process is directly regulated by Activator Protein 1 (AP-1) family member activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3), with eosinophil-specific deletion of ATF3 both in vitro and in vivo resulting in decreased adipose tissue VEGFA, reduced adipose tissue vascularisation, and decreased thermogenic beige fat. We thus propose a novel mechanism by which eosinophils promote metabolic homeostasis and highlight ATF3 as a key driver of adipose eosinophil tissue specialisation.

A Neurogenic Signature Involving Monoamine Oxidase-A Controls Human Thermogenic Adipose Tissue Development

Project description:Mechanisms that control “beige/brite” thermogenic adipose tissue development may be harnessed to improve human metabolic health. To define these mechanisms, we developed a species-hybrid model in which human mesenchymal progenitor cells were used to develop white or thermogenic/beige adipose tissue in mice. The hybrid adipose tissue developed distinctive features of human adipose tissue, such as larger adipocyte size, despite its neurovascular architecture being entirely of murine origin. Thermogenic adipose tissue recruited a denser, qualitatively distinct vascular network, differing in genes mapping to circadian rhythm pathways, and denser sympathetic innervation. The enhanced thermogenic neurovascular network was associated with human adipocyte expression of THBS4, TNC, NTRK3 and SPARCL1, which enhance neurogenesis, and decreased expression of MAOA and ACHE, which control neurotransmitter tone. Systemic inhibition of MAOA, which is present in human but absent in mouse adipocytes, induced browning of human but not mouse adipose tissue, revealing the physiological relevance of this pathway. Our results reveal species-specific cell type dependencies controlling the development of thermogenic adipose tissue and point to human adipocyte MAOA as a potential target for metabolic disease therapy.

Expression data from eosinophils isolated from subcutaneous fat of WT and KLF3 KO mice

Project description:Gene expression in eosinophils isolated by FACS from inguinal subcutaneous adipose tissue of WT and mice lacking the transcriptional repressor Kruppel-like factor 3 (KLF3). We aimed to investigate deregulation of pathways and genes in the absence of KLF3 in eosinophils that reside in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, in order to study the role of KLF3 and its target genes in adipose eosinophil function and activity.

Genome-wide expression analysis in Control and Atg5-deficient eosinophils.

Project description:Depletion of autophagy-associated protein 5 (Atg5), specifically within the eosinophil lineage in mice, resulted in increased body weight, impaired glucose metabolism, and structural alterations in adipose tissue. Our findings highlight that Atg5 influences the functional activity of eosinophils within adipose tissue rather than their quantity. To gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying ATG5's role in eosinophils, we conducted total RNA-seq analyses on control and Atg5-deficient eosinophils isolated from both bone marrow and blood of mice.

An Epigenome Atlas of Mouse Adipocytes

Project description:Despite recent advances in the characterization of the mouse adipocyte epigenome, epigenetic characterization of adipocytes in vivo has been limited, particularly across different adipose depots and of more than two epigenetic modifications. In this study, by using the state-of-the art method CUT&Tag and NuTRAP mice to generate paired single mouse datasets we conducted an integrative multimodal analysis of five histone marks – H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac and H3K9me3 – in beige, brown, and white adipocytes from three distinct mouse adipose tissue depots. Our analysis revealed that enhancers distinguished adipocytes by their tissue of origin, with H3K4me1 deposition differentiating between beige and brown adipocytes. Furthermore, diphtheria toxin-mediated ablation of beige adipocytes showed that white adipocytes in inguinal adipose tissue and beige adipocytes did not use a distinct enhancer set and both poised thermogenic genes for expression. In contrast, adipocytes from epididymal adipose tissue actively repressed thermogenic master regulators and exhibited a distinct enhancer profile compared to white adipocytes from inguinal tissue. These paired multimodal data comprise an extensive resource for the further exploration of the mouse adipocyte epigenome which may enable discovery of regulatory elements governing adipocyte identity and gene regulation.

Loss of TLE3 promotes the mitochondrial program in beige adipocytes and improves glucose metabolism

Project description:Prolonged cold exposure stimulates the recruitment of beige adipocytes within white adipose tissue. Beige adipocytes depend on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to drive thermogenesis. The transcriptional mechanisms that promote remodeling in adipose tissue during the cold are not well understood. Here we demonstrate that the transcriptional coregulator transducin-like enhancer of split 3 (TLE3) inhibits mitochondrial gene expression in beige adipocytes. Conditional deletion of TLE3 in adipocytes promotes mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and increases energy expenditure, thereby improving glucose control. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing, we found that TLE3 occupies distal enhancers in proximity to nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes and that many of these binding sites are also enriched for early B-cell factor (EBF) transcription factors. TLE3 interacts with EBF2 and blocks its ability to promote the thermogenic transcriptional program. Collectively, these studies demonstrate that TLE3 regulates thermogenic gene expression in beige adipocytes through inhibition of EBF2 transcriptional activity. Inhibition of TLE3 may provide a novel therapeutic approach for obesity and diabetes.

BAF60a deficiency uncouples chromatin accessibility and cold sensitivity from white fat browning

Project description:Brown and beige fat share a remarkably similar transcriptional program that supports fuel oxidation and thermogenesis. The chromatin-remodeling machinery that governs genome accessibility and renders adipocytes poised for thermogenic activation remains elusive. Here we found that BAF60a, a subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complexes, serves an indispensible role in cold-induced thermogenesis in brown fat. BAF60a maintains chromatin accessibility for key thermogenic genes in close proximity to PPARg and EBF2 binding sites. Surprisingly, fat-specific BAF60a inactivation triggers more pronounced browning of inguinal white adipose tissue that is linked to induction of MC2R, a receptor for the pituitary hormone ACTH. Elevated MC2R expression sensitizes adipocytes and BAF60a-deficient adipose tissue to thermogenic activation in response to ACTH stimulation. These observations reveal an unexpected dichotomous role of BAF60a-mediated chromatin remodeling in transcriptional control of brown and beige gene programs and illustrate a pituitary-adipose signaling axis in the control of thermogenesis.

Atlas of Brown Adipose Tissue

Project description:Heterogeneity in brown adipocyte populations was observed. Until recently, thermogenic adipocytes have been considered a homogeneous population. However, studies have pointed to the existence of multiple subtypes, which are distinct in developmental origin, substrate usage and transcriptome. Our current incomplete understanding of cell types in brown and beige adipose tissue and the lack of specific markers constitute a critical barrier to studying their biological functions. Our goal is to use the advances in single-cell genomics to determine subtypes that constitute adipose tissue under various thermogenic stimuli at the single cell resolution.

Facultative protein selenation controls redox sensitivity, adipose tissue thermogenesis and obesity

Project description:Oxidation of cysteines by reactive oxygen species (ROS) initiates thermogenesis in brown and beige adipose tissues. Cellular selenols, where sulfur is replaced with selenium, exhibit enhanced reactivity with ROS. Here we developed a mass spectrometric method to interrogate incorporation of selenols into proteins. Unexpectedly, this approach revealed facultative incorporation of selenium into proteins that lack canonical encoding for selenium-containing amino acids. Selenium was selectively incorporated into regulatory sites on key metabolic proteins, including as selenocysteine replacing cysteine at position 253 in UCP1. Remarkably, dietary selenium supplementation elevated facultative incorporation into UCP1, elevated energy expenditure through thermogenic adipose tissue, and protected against obesity. Together, these findings reveal the existence of facultative protein selenation, which correlates with impacts on thermogenic adipocyte function.

Cardiolipin Synthesis Governs Systemic Energy Homeostasis through Thermogenic Fat Mitochondria

Project description:Here we show that synthesis of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin is an indispensable driver of thermogenic fat function. Cardiolipin biosynthesis is robustly induced in brown and beige adipose upon cold exposure. Mimicking this response by overexpressing cardiolipin synthase (Crls1) enhances energy consumption in mouse and human adipocytes. Crls1 deficiency diminishes mitochondrial uncoupling in brown and beige adipocytes and elicits a nuclear transcriptional response through ER stress-mediated retrograde communication. Cardiolipin depletion in brown and beige fat abolishes adipose thermogenesis and glucose uptake and renders animals strikingly insulin resistant. We further identify a rare human CRLS1 variant associated with insulin resistance and show that adipose CRLS1 levels positively correlate with insulin sensitivity. Thus, adipose cardiolipin is a powerful regulator of organismal energy homeostasis through thermogenic fat bioenergetics.
