Abstract Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are type 2 cytokine-producing cells that have important roles in helminth infection and allergic inflammation. ILC2s are tissue-resident cells, and their phenotypes and roles are regulated by tissue-specific environmental factors. While the role of ILC2s in the lung, intestine and bone marrow has been elucidated in many studies, their role in adipose tissues is still unclear. Here, we report on the role of ILC2-derived bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7) in adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation. Co-culture of fat-derived ILC2s with pluripotent mesenchymal C3H10T1/2 cells and committed white preadipocyte 3T3-L1 cells resulted in their differentiation to adipocytes and induced lipid accumulation. Co-culture experiments using BMP7-deficient ILC2s revealed that BMP7, produced by ILC2s, induces differentiation into brown adipocytes. Our results demonstrate that BMP7, produced by ILC2s, affects adipocyte differentiation, particularly in brown adipocytes.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by a spectrum of liver pathologies, from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis. Recent studies have increasingly noted the aberrant expression of microRNAs closely related to NAFLD pathologies. We have previously shown the presence of increased levels of microRNA-27b (miR-27b) in patients with NAFLD. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-27b in NAFLD by examining the impact of up-regulated miR-27b on the differentiation of preadipocytes into mature adipocytes. We found that miR-27b-3p remarkably enhances the adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells associated with lipid accumulation and intracellular triglyceride contents. Furthermore, we have demonstrated not only that miR-27b-3p induces acyl-CoA thioesterase 2 (ACOT2) expression in 3T3-L1 cells, but also that the knockdown of ACOT2 suppresses lipid accumulation and adipocyte differentiation in both the presence and absence of miR-27b-3p treatment. Our data strongly suggest that the miR-27b-ACOT2 axis is an important pathway in adipocyte differentiation and may play a role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD.

BackgroundExpression of genes regulating fatty acid metabolism is reduced in tubular epithelial cells from kidneys with tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF), thus decreasing the energy produced by fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), a target for the energy-sensing AMP-activating protein kinase (AMPK), is the major controller of the rate of FAO within cells. Metformin has a well described antifibrotic effect, and increases phosphorylation of ACC by AMPK, thereby increasing FAO.MethodsWe evaluated phosphorylation of ACC in cell and mouse nephropathy models, as well as the effects of metformin administration in mice with and without mutations that reduce ACC phosphorylation.ResultsReduced phosphorylation of ACC on the AMPK site Ser79 occurred in both tubular epithelial cells treated with folate to mimic cellular injury and in wild-type (WT) mice after induction of the folic acid nephropathy model. When this effect was exaggerated in mice with knock-in (KI) Ser to Ala mutations of the phosphorylation sites in ACC, lipid accumulation and fibrosis increased significantly compared with WT. The effect of ACC phosphorylation on fibrosis was confirmed in the unilateral ureteric obstruction model, which showed significantly increased lipid accumulation and fibrosis in the KI mice. Metformin use was associated with significantly reduced fibrosis and lipid accumulation in WT mice. In contrast, in the KI mice, the drug was associated with worsened fibrosis.ConclusionsThese data indicate that reduced phosphorylation of ACC after renal injury contributes to the development of TIF, and that phosphorylation of ACC is required for metformin’s antifibrotic action in the kidney.

Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Acer tegmentosum Maxim (ATM) on adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 adipocyte-derived cells and anti-obesity properties in high fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats. Methods: 3T3-L1 adipocytes and HFD-induced obese rats were treated with ATM, and its effect on gene expression was analyzed using RT-PCR and Western blotting experiments. Results: Cellular lipid contents in DMI (dexamethasone, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, and insulin mixture)-treated cells increased, while ATM treatment caused a significant reduction in lipid accumulation in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells. ATM caused inhibition of adipogenesis via down-regulation of the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β (C/EBPβ), C/EBPα, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) expressions in 3T3-L1 cells. Moreover, treatment with ATM caused a decrease in the expressions of adipocyte-specific genes, such as adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein-2 (aP2), fatty acid synthase (FAS), and lipoprotein lipase (LPL), compared with DMI-stimulated adipocytes. In addition, phosphorylation levels of protein kinase B (Akt) and its downstream substrate, glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β), were significantly decreased by ATM treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Together, these results indicated that ATM caused inhibition of both adipocyte differentiation via suppression of the C/EBP family and PPARγ expressions and the Akt signaling pathway in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In the present study, we further investigated anti-obesity effects of ATM on HFD-induced obese rats. Rats fed with HFD demonstrated elevations in body weight gain, while the administration of ATM significantly reversed BW gains and adipose tissue weights in rats fed HFD. ATM supplementation also caused a decrease in the circulating triglyceride levels and total cholesterol levels and led to inhibition of lipid accumulation in the adipose tissues in HFD-induced obesity in rats. Furthermore, epididymal fat exhibited larger adipocytes in the HFD group, whereas the ATM-treated group was significantly smaller than that of HFD group. These results strongly demonstrate that ATM administration caused a reduction in adiposity via attenuation in adipose tissue mass and adipocyte size. Conclusion: These finding demonstrated that ATM exerted anti-obesity effects through inhibition of adipocyte differentiation and adipogenesis, leading to a decrease in BW and fat tissue mass in HFD-induced obesity in rats.
