Project description:Reprograming of 'white' to 'brite' adipocytes with higher oxidative capacity and improved endocrine function represents a potentially important approach to address the dysfunctional adipocyte phenotypes in obesity. We find that chronic treatment with the PPAR? agonist (rosiglitazone, 1 uM for 7days in vitro) in white human adipose tissue induced metabolic changes. Our trancriptome analysis showed that higher mitochondrial and peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation pathways and other genes involved in lipid metabolism including (re)esterification are induced by rosiglitazone treatment. To understand the biochemical basis of brite vs. white human adipocytes, we will perform comprehensive metabolomic profiling of control and rosiglitazone treated tissues using unbiased lipidomics approach.

Project description:We took a systematic approach to determine the transcriptional programs that are specifically regulated by C/EBP? in mature white adipocytes of mice on chow diet or high fat diet. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that C/EBP?, as a lipogenic transcription factor, has unique direct targets compared to PPAR?. Our inducible adipocyte specific knockout system allows us to test the direct targets of C/EBP? and PPAR? in adipocytes by short-term C/EBP? or PPAR? elimination in mature adipocytes in vivo. Results indicate that although it has been shown that C/EBP? and PPAR? cross-regulate each other, they have distinct direct responsive targets. Moreover, there are very few C/EBP? specific targets in mice on a chow diet, most of the C/EBP? targets in mature adipocytes are genes modulated by HFD feeding. Total RNA obtained from subcutaneous adipose tissue of Adn-C/EBP?-/- mice on doxycycline chow diet for 3 days, doxycycline high fat diet for 3 days or 1 month and Adn-PPAR?-/- mice on doxycycline chow diet for 3 days, compared to control littermates.

Project description:The nuclear receptor PPAR gamma is required for adipocyte differentiation, but its role in mature adipocytes is less clear. Here we report that knockdown of PPAR gamma expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes returned the expression of most adipocyte genes towards preadipocyte levels. Consistently, down regulated but not up regulated genes showed strong enrichment of PPAR gamma binding. Surprisingly, not all adipocyte genes were reversed and the adipocyte morphology was maintained for an extended period after PPAR gamma depletion. To explain this, we focused on transcriptional regulators whose adipogenic regulation was not reversed upon PPAR gamma depletion. We identified GATA2, a transcription factor whose down-regulation early in adipogenesis is required for preadipocyte differentiation, remaining low after PPAR gamma knockdown. Forced expression of GATA2 in mature adipocytes complemented PPAR gamma depletion and impaired adipocyte functionality with a more preadipocyte- like gene expression profile. Ectopic expression of GATA2 in adipose tissue in vivo had similar effect on adipogenic gene expression. These results suggest that PPAR gamma-independent down regulation of GATA2 prevents reversion of mature adipocytes after PPAR gamma depletion. Experiment Overall Design: This dataset consists of three sample groups: preadipocytes, control siRNA treated adipocytes, and PPAR gamma siRNA treated adipocytes. Each sample group consists of three replicates samples. Each sample was hybridized to a separate array for a total of nine arrays.

Project description:Here we have characterized the transcriptional processes underlying the formation of human brown in white (i.e. brite) adipocytes using a genome-wide approach. We show that the browning process is associated with reprogramming of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) binding to form brite adipocyte-selective PPARγ super-enhancers that appear to play a key role in activation of brite adipocyte-selective genes. We identify the KLF11 gene based on its association with a PPARγ super-enhancer and show that KLF11 is a novel browning factor directly induced by rosiglitazone and required for the activation of brite adipocyte-selective gene program by rosiglitazone.

Project description:Aims: Adipocytes are critical cornerstones of energy metabolism. While obesity-induced adipocyte dysfunction is associated with insulin resistance and systemic metabolic disturbances, adipogenesis, the formation of new adipocytes and healthy adipose tissue expansion are associated with metabolic benefits. Understanding the molecular mechanisms governing adipogenesis is of great clinical potential to efficiently restore metabolic health in obesity. Here we investigate the role of Heart and neural crest derivatives-expressed protein 2 (HAND2) in adipogenesis. Methods: Human white adipose tissue (WAT) were collected in a cross-sectional study of 318 individuals. In vitro, for mechanistic experiments we used primary adipocytes from human and mice as well as human multipotent adipose derived stem (hMADS) cells. Gene silencing was performed using siRNA or genetic inactivation in primary adipocytes from LoxP mouse models with Cre-encoding mRNA. Adipogenesis efficiency was measured by OilRedO staining, qPCR and microarray. A combinatorial RNASeq approach was used to identify gene clusters regulated by HAND2. In vivo, we created a conditional adipocyte Hand2 deletion mouse model using Cre under control of the Adipoq promoter (HAND2AdipoqCRE). Results: We found that HAND2 is an obesity-linked white adipocyte transcription factor regulated by glucocorticoids that was required but insufficient for adipocyte differentiation in vitro. In a large cohort of humans with obesity, WAT HAND2 expression was correlated to body-mass-index (BMI). The HAND2 gene was enriched in white adipocytes compared to brown, induced early in differentiation and responded to DEX, a typical glucocorticoid receptor (GR, encoded by NR3C1) agonist. Silencing of NR3C1 in hMADS or deletion of GR in a transgenic conditional mouse model results in diminished HAND2 expression, establishing that adipocyte HAND2 is regulated by GCs via GR in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we identified gene clusters indirectly regulated by the GR-HAND2 pathway. Interestingly, silencing of HAND2 impaired adipocyte differentiation in hMADS and primary mouse adipocytes. However, a conditional adipocyte Hand2 deletion mouse model using Cre under control of the Adipoq promoter did not mirror these effects on adipose tissue differentiation, indicating that Hand2 was required at stages prior to Adipoq expression. Conclusion: In summary, our study identifies HAND2 as a novel obesity-linked adipocyte transcription factor, highlighting new mechanisms of GR-dependent adipogenesis in human and mice.

Project description:Energy-storing white adipocytes maintain their identity by suppressing the gene program defining energy-burning thermogenic brown/beige adipocytes. Here, we reveal that the protein-protein interaction between the transcriptional co-regulator ZFP423 and brown/beige cell determination factor, EBF2, is essential for restraining the thermogenic phenotype of white adipose tissue (WAT). Disruption of the ZFP423-EBF2 protein interaction through CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing triggers widespread “browning” of WAT in adult mice. Mechanistically, adipocyte Zfp423 deficiency induces an EBF2 NuRD-to-BAF co-regulator switch and a shift in PPARgamma occupancy to thermogenic genes. This shift in PPARgamma occupancy increases the anti-diabetic efficacy of the PPARgamma agonist rosiglitazone in obesity while diminishing the unwanted weight-gaining effect of the drug. These data indicate that ZFP423 controls EBF2 co-activator recruitment and PPARgamma occupancy to determine the thermogenic plasticity of adipocytes and raise the concept of targeting transcriptional brakes in adipocyte gene expression as a therapeutic strategy to induce thermogenic adipocyte biogenesis in obesity.

Project description:Obesity is a major risk factor for the development of insulin resistance and type II diabetes. The nuclear receptors PPAR delta and PPAR gamma play a central role in regulating metabolism in adipose tissue, as well as being targets for the treatment of insulin resistance. The metabolic effects of PPAR delta and PPAR gamma activation have been examined both in vivo in white adipose tissue from ob/ob mice and in vitro in cultured 3T3-L1 adipocytes using a combined 1H NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry metabolomic methodology to understand the contrasting roles of these receptors. These steady state measurements were supplemented with 13C-stable isotope substrate labeling to assess fluxes, respirometry and transcriptomic microarray analysis. The metabolic effects of the two receptors were readily distinguished, with PPAR gamma ?activation characterised by increased fat storage and fat synthesis/elongation, while activation of PPAR delta caused increased fatty acid beta-oxidation, TCA cycle rate and oxidation of extracellular branch chain amino acids. Stimulated glycolysis and increased desaturation of fatty acids were the only common pathways. PPAR delta has a role as an anti-obesity target as well as an anti-diabetic. Total RNA obtained from cultured 3T3-L1 cells treated for 48 hours with either DMSO control, GW610742 PPARd agonist or GW347845 PPARg agonist and compared.

Project description:The nuclear receptor Peroxisome Proliferator Activator Receptor (PPAR ) is the target of antidiabetic thiazolidinedione drugs, which improve insulin resistance but have side-effects that limit widespread use. PPAR is required for adipocyte differentiation, but is also expressed in other cell types, notably macrophages, where it influences atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, and inflammation. A central question is whether PPAR binding in macrophages occurs at the same or different genomic locations compared to adipocytes. Here, utilizing chromatin immunoprecipitation and high throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq), we demonstrate that PPAR cistromes in adipocytes and macrophages are predominantly cell type specific. In macrophages, PPAR colocalizes with the hematopoietic transcription factor PU.1 in areas of open chromatin and histone acetylation, near a distinct set of immune genes in addition to a number of metabolic genes shared with adipocytes. In adipocytes, the macrophage-unique binding regions are marked with repressive histone modifications, typically associated with local chromatin compaction and gene silencing. PPAR , when introduced into cells that are neither macrophages nor adipocytes, bound only to regions depleted of repressive histone modifications, where it increased DNA accessibility, enhanced histone acetylation, and induced gene expression. Thus, the cell-specificity of PPAR function is regulated by cell-specific chromatin accessibility, histone marks, and transcription factors. Genomic occupancy profiled by high throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) from mouse macrophages for PPARgamma, PU.1, C/EBPbeta, H3K9Ace; and from 3T3-L1 adipocytes for PPARgamma and H3K9Ace Masking file used to subtract input bias areas prior to generating final peak lists is linked below.
