Transglutaminases (TGs) are crosslinking enzymes best known for their vascular remodeling in hypertension. They require calcium to form an isopeptide bond, connecting a glutamine to a protein bound lysine residue or a free amine donor such as norepinephrine (NE) or serotonin (5-HT). We discovered that perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) contains significant amounts of these amines, making PVAT an ideal model to test interactions of amines and TGs. We hypothesized that transglutaminases are active in PVAT. Real time RT-PCR determined that Sprague Dawley rat aortic, superior mesenteric artery (SMA), and mesenteric resistance vessel (MR) PVATs express TG2 and blood coagulation Factor-XIII (FXIII) mRNA. Consistent with this, immunohistochemical analyses support that these PVATs all express TG2 and FXIII protein. The activity of TG2 and FXIII was investigated in tissue sections using substrate peptides that label active TGs when in a catalyzing calcium solution. Both TG2 and FXIII were active in rat aortic PVAT, SMAPVAT, and MRPVAT. Western blot analysis determined that the known TG inhibitor cystamine reduced incorporation of experimentally added amine donor 5-(biotinamido)pentylamine (BAP) into MRPVAT. Finally, experimentally added NE competitively inhibited incorporation of BAP into MRPVAT adipocytes. Further studies to determine the identity of amidated proteins will give insight into how these enzymes contribute to functions of PVAT and, ultimately, blood pressure.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease characterized by significant vascular remodeling. The obesity epidemic has produced great interest in the relationship between small visceral adipose tissue depots producing localized inflammatory conditions, which may link metabolism, innate immunity, and vascular remodeling. This study used novel micro computed tomography (microCT) three-dimensional modeling to investigate the degree of remodeling of the lung vasculature and differential proteomics to determine small visceral adipose dysfunction in rats with severe PAH. Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to a subcutaneous injection of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor blocker (Sugen 5416) with subsequent hypoxia exposure for 3 weeks (SU/hyp). At 12 weeks after hypoxia, microCT analysis showed a decrease in the ratio of vascular to total tissue volume within the SU/hyp group (mean ± standard deviation: 0.27 ± 0.066; P = 0.02) with increased vascular separation (0.37 ± 0.062 mm; P = 0.02) when compared with the control (0.34 ± 0.084 and 0.30 ± 0.072 mm). Differential proteomics detected an up-regulation of complement protein 3 (C3; SU/hyp: control ratio = 2.86) and the adipose tissue–specific fatty acid binding protein-4 (FABP4, 2.66) in the heart adipose of the SU/hyp. Significant remodeling of the lung vasculature validates the efficacy of the SU/hyp rat for modeling human PAH. The upregulation of C3 and FABP4 within the heart adipose implicates small visceral adipose dysfunction. C3 has been associated with vascular stiffness, and FABP4 suppresses peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor, which is a major regulator of adipose function and known to be downregulated in PAH. These findings reveal that small visceral adipose tissue within the SU/hyp model provides mechanistic links for vascular remodeling and adipose dysfunction in the pathophysiology of PAH.

Chemerin is a mediator of adipose tissue involved in the regulation of many processes, including lipogenesis, and inflammatory response. The role of chemerin in the development of insulin resistance has been insufficiently studied and needs detailed understanding. The aim of the study was to investigate chemerin production in obese patients with different states of carbohydrate metabolism. The study included 155 patients with a diagnosis of obesity; 34 patients with overweight. The control group 1 consisted of 43 conditionally healthy donors who did not have obesity. For comparison of the results of a study to determine the levels of tissue-specific mRNA expression of the genes IL-6, TNF-a, RARRES2, (encoding IL-6, TNF-a and chemerin) in adipose tissue introduced a control group 2 – 30 patients without obesity. Study on the relative level of mRNA expression of the genes IL-6, TNF-a and RARRES2 (encoding IL-6, TNF-a and chemerin) was carried out using real time PCR. Concentrations of IL-6, TNF-a, and chemerin were measured in serum/plasma using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We found significant differences in the plasma level of chemerin and tissue-specific features of RARRES2 gene expression in obese patients, depending on the degree of obesity and the state of carbohydrate metabolism. Multidirectional associations of RARRES2 gene expression with TNF-a and IL-6 genes in adipose tissues of different localization are shown: in obese patients (BMI £40 kg/m2) without type 2 diabetes – negative, and type 2 diabetes – positive. Identified relationship chemerin plasma content and the expression level of its gene in biopsies with various parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, proinflammatory molecules indicate chemerin involved in metabolic and immune processes in obesity.

Morphological Studies

Obesity associated hypertension in rodent models is commonly associated with altered vascular reactivity to sympathetic neurotransmitters and inflammation-induced vascular remodeling/fibrosis. Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) rats exhibit elevated sympathetic activity and vascular remodeling. We hypothesized that diet-induced obesity in Dahl SS rats would promote hypertension, vascular dysfunction and remodeling/fibrosis. Male Dahl SS rats were placed on high fat diet (HFD, 60% kcal from fat with final concentrations of 0.33% NaCl and 1% K + , n=5) or normal-fat diet (NFD; 10% kcal from fat, 0.24% NaCl, 0.36% K + , n=5) for 24-26 weeks after weaning (3 weeks of age). Compared with NFD rats, HFD rats displayed severe hypertension (MAP, 165±4 mmHg vs 133±6 mmHg, P<0.05), higher body-weight (470±6g vs 433±7g, P<0.05), and hyperlipidemia (cholesterol, 211±22 mg/dl vs 138±23 mg/dl, P=0.05). HFD rats did not show significant changes in plasma levels of fasting glucose (85±5 mg/dl vs 75±5 mg/dl), insulin (2.6±0.8 ng/ml vs 2.2±1.1 ng/ml), leptin (0.77±0.18 ng/ml vs 0.44±0.06 ng/ml), or aldosterone (249±3 pg/ml vs 234±3 pg/ml) (all P>0.05). HFD did not affect pressurized mesenteric arterial (~300 μm inner diameter, 60 mmHg) reactivity to norepinephrine or ATP in vitro . Pressurized mesenteric arteries from HFD rats displayed thicker walls (Ca 2+ free buffer, 40±1 μm vs 36±1 μm, P<0.05), but showed slightly increased distensibility. Morphological studies did not reveal greater fibrosis in adventitia of mesenteric, intrarenal and coronary arteries from HFD rats. However, HFD induced inflammation in mesenteric perivascular adipose tissue, as shown by increased CD3 positive cell infiltration and histological evidence of fibrosis and angiogenesis. Our studies indicate that HFD in male Dahl SS rats promotes hypertension, perivascular adipose tissue inflammation and vascular remodeling, but not vascular fibrosis. Alteration of vascular contractility to sympathetic neurotransmitters, however, is not required for obesity associated hypertension in Dahl SS rats.
