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.

Project description:Beige adipocytes in mammalian white adipose tissue (WAT) can reinforce fat catabolism and energy expenditure. Promoting beige adipocyte biogenesis is a tantalizing tactic for combating obesity and its associated metabolic disorders. Here, we report that a previously unidentified phosphorylation pattern (Thr166) in the DNA-binding domain of PPARg regulates the inducibility of beige adipocytes. This unique posttranslational modification (PTM) pattern influences allosteric communication between PPARg and DNA or coactivators, which impedes the PPARg-mediated transactivation of beige cell-related gene expression in WAT. The genetic mutation mimicking T166 phosphorylation (p-T166) hinders the inducibility of beige adipocytes. In contrast, genetic or chemical intervention in this PTM pattern favors beige cell formation. Moreover, inhibition of p-T166 attenuates metabolic dysfunction in obese mice. Our results uncover a mechanism involved in beige cell fate determination. Moreover, our discoveries provide a promising strategy for guiding the development of novel PPARg agonists for the treatment of obesity and related metabolic disorders.

Project description:Adipose tissue is central to regulation of systemic energy homeostasis. Adaptive thermogenesis in brown and beige adipocytes, which relies on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, dissipates energy to counteract obesity. On the other hand, chronic inflammation in adipose tissue is linked to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and obesity. Here we show that nuclear factor I-A (NFIA), a transcriptional regulator of brown and beige adipocytes, improves systemic glucose homeostasis via up-regulation of oxidative phosphorylation and reciprocal down-regulation of inflammation. Mice with transgenic expression of NFIA in adipocytes exhibited improved glucose tolerance, increased energy expenditure and limited weight gain on high fat diet. NFIA coordinately up-regulate genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation as well as a battery of brown-fat-specific genes through enhancer activation that involves facilitated genomic binding of PPARγ. In contrast, NFIA in adipocytes, but not in macrophages, down-regulate pro-inflammatory cytokine genes to ameliorate adipose tissue inflammation in vivo. NFIA binds to enhancer/promoter region of Ccl2 gene that encodes pro-inflammatory cytokine MCP-1, to down-regulate its transcription. NFIA expression and CCL2 expression was negatively correlated in human adipose tissue. These results indicate that NFIA in adipocytes reciprocally regulate mitochondrial and inflammatory gene program to improve systemic glucose homeostasis.

Project description:Adipose tissue provides a defense against starvation and environmental cold. These dichotomous functions are performed by three distinct cell types: energy-storing white adipocytes, and thermogenic beige and brown adipocytes. Previous studies have demonstrated that exposure to environmental cold stimulates the recruitment of beige adipocytes in the white adipose tissue (WAT) of mice and humans, a process that has been extensively investigated. However, beige adipose tissue also develops during the peri-weaning period in mice, a developmental program that remains poorly understood. Here, we address this gap in our knowledge using genetic, imaging, physiologic, and genomic approaches. We find that, unlike cold-induced recruitment in adult animals, peri-weaning development of beige adipocytes occurs in a temperature- and sympathetic nerve-independent manner. Instead, the transcription factor B cell leukemia/lymphoma 6 (BCL6) acts in a cell autonomous manner to regulate the commitment but not the maintenance phase of beige adipogenesis. Genome-wide RNA-seq studies reveal that BCL6 regulates a core set of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial uncoupling, which are necessary for development of functional beige adipocytes. Together, our findings demonstrate that distinct transcriptional and signaling mechanisms control peri-weaning development and cold-induced recruitment of beige adipocytes in mammals.
