The epigenetic and transcriptional basis of a developmental transition from brown to white adipose tissue

ABSTRACT: Brown and white adipose tissues are functionally and morphologically distinct. Theformer tissue has a primary role in maintaining thermogenesis in new born mammals while the latter acts as an energy storage vehicle that enhances survival when food is limiting. Both tissues are involved in maintaining energy homeostasis in adults and are strongly implicated in chronic metabolic diseases associated with obesity in humans. The perirenal adipose depot in sheep undergoes a relatively rapid transition from brown to white adipose tissue between late gestation and a few weeks after birth. However, little is known about this developmental process in terms of mechanism, changes in gene expression and epigenetic architecture. Citation: Tony Vuocolo, Aaron Statham, Denis C.

Transcriptomics to discover splice variants involved in the browning of adipose tissue

Project description:Adipose tissue is the major depot for energy storage. Recent studies have shown that at least three types of adipocytes can be distinguished depending on their anatomical locations : 1) The classic brown adipocytes, i.e., brown adipose tissue (BAT); 2) The 'brite' (brown-in-white) adipocytes, i.e. inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT); 3) The 'true' white adipocytes, i.e., epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT). Two strains of mice (SV129 and C57BL/6J) were used in this study. SV strain is resistant to obesity and latter is prone to obesity. Pre-adipocyte cells were isolated from subcutaneous tissue (iWAT) to create four groups of cell cultures per strain of mouse.

Effect of sesaminol on C2C12 cells on myogenesis pathway

Project description:Adipocytes are key players in maintaining energy homeostasis and are classified into two different categories: white and brown adipocyte. While white adipocytes store energy as triacylglycerols in lipid droplets, brown adipocytes combust excess chemical energy and release in the form of heat through uncoupled respiration. This characteristic phenomenon of brown fat attracts researchers and pharmacological industries to view brown fat as one of the potential therapeutic targets for obesity and associated metabolic disease. In the current study, we investigated the effect of a small molecule, sesaminol (SML) on brown fat activity and found that SML induces thermogenic program in primary white adipocytes as well as chow diet fed mice. In particular, SML treatment to mice elevated mitochondrial complex proteins and the rate oxygen consumption in brown and white fat. Administration of SML to high fat diet (HFD) challenged mice decreased weight gain, adiposity and cholesterol levels along with an increase of brown fat gene program in brown and white fat. Mechanistically, SML repressed the myogenic gene program in C2C12 myoblasts and increased all mitochondrial marker genes as appeared in brown adipose cells. Together, our results demonstrate that SML stimulates brown adipose function and protects mice against diet induced weight gain.

A metabolomic study of adipose tissue in mice with a disruption of the circadian system

Project description:Adipose tissue functions in terms of energy homeostasis as a rheostat for blood triglyceride, regulating its concentration, in response to external stimuli. In addition it acts as a barometer to inform the central nervous system of energy levels which can vary dramatically between meals and according to energy demand. Here a metabolomic approach, combining both Mass Spectrometry and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy, was used to analyse both white and brown adipose tissue in mice with adipocyte-specific deletion of Arntl (also known as Bmal1), a gene encoding a core molecular clock component. The results are consistent with a peripheral circadian clock playing a central role in metabolic regulation of both brown and white adipose tissue in rodents and show that Arntl induced global changes in both tissues which were distinct for the two types. In particular, anterior subcutaneous white adipose tissue (ASWAT) tissue was effected by a reduction in the degree of unsaturation of fatty acids, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) changes were associated with a reduction in chain length. In addition the aqueous fraction of metabolites in BAT were profoundly affected by Arntl disruption, consistent with the dynamic role of this tissue in maintaining body temperature across the day/night cycle and an upregulation in fatty acid oxidation and citric acid cycle activity to generate heat during the day when rats are inactive (increases in 3-hydroxybutyrate and glutamate), and increased synthesis and storage of lipids during the night when rats feed more (increased concentrations of glycerol, choline and glycerophosphocholine). The data and protocols for NMR assay are reported in current study MTBLS382. The data and protocols for UPLC-QTOF-MS are reported in study MTBLS380.The data and protocols for GC-FID are reproted in study MTBLS390.

Comparative secretome analysis of primary murine white and brown adipocytes

Project description:The adipose organ, including white and brown adipose tissues, is an important player in systemic energy homeostasis, storing excess energy in form of lipids while releasing energy upon various energy demands. Recent studies have demonstrated that white and brown adipocytes also function as endocrine cells and regulate systemic metabolism by secreting factors that act locally and systemically. However, a comparative proteomic analysis of secreted factors from white and brown adipocytes and their responsiveness to adrenergic stimulation has not been reported yet. Therefore, we studied and compared the secretome of white and brown adipocytes, with and without norepinephrine (NE) stimulation. Our results reveal that in the absence of NE, carbohydrate metabolism-regulating proteins are preferably secreted from white adipocytes, while brown adipocytes predominantly secrete integrin signaling proteins. Upon NE stimulation, white adipocytes secrete more proteins involved in lipid metabolism, while brown adipocytes secrete more proteins with specific anti-inflammatory properties. In conclusion, our study provides a comprehensive catalogue of novel adipokine candidates secreted from white and brown adipocytes with many of them responsive to NE.

Transcription profiling of mouse brown versus white tissue adipose

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify genes expressed selectively in brown adipose tissue as compared to white adipose tissue from the same animals. This analysis provides a gene set that is brown and white adipose selective. Experiment Overall Design: Interscapular brown adipose tissue and epididymal white adipose tissue was carefully dissected from 3 male C57Bl/6 mice. These samples were profiled independently using Affymetrix mouse 430_2 gene arrays, representing 3 biological replicates for each brown and white adipose tissues.

Genome wide chromatin modification associated with the developmental transition from brown to white adipose tissue

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was used to find regions enriched for the histone modifications, H3K27me3, H3K27ac and H3K4me3 in perirenal adipose tissue in late gestation sheep fetuses, (i.e.~ 2 weeks before birth) and 12 week old lambs. This was undertaken to investigate the epigenetic changes that occur as a result of development during this key period where the perirenal adipose tissue transitions from a primarily brown adipose tissue state to a primarily white adipose tissue state. The former tissue has a primary role in maintaining thermogenesis in new-born mammals while the latter acts as an energy storage vehicle that enhances survival when food is limiting. Both tissues are involved in maintaining energy homeostasis in adults and are strongly implicated in chronic metabolic diseases associated with obesity in humans. Little is known about this developmental process in terms of mechanism and changes in gene expression. This developmental contrast revealed that this developmental transition is associated with large changes in chromatin modifications associated with the morphological change of the tissue during this brief period.
