Abstract
Metabolically healthy obesity refers to obese individuals who do not develop metabolic disorders. These people store fat in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) rather than in visceral adipose tissue (VAT). However, the molecules participating in this specific scenario remain elusive. Rab18, a lipid droplet (LD)-associated protein, mediates the contact between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and LDs to facilitate LD growth and maturation. In the present study, we show that the protein level of Rab18 is specifically upregulated in the SAT of obese people and mice. Rab18 adipocyte-specific knockout (Rab18 AKO) mice had a decreased volume ratio of SAT to VAT compared with wildtype mice. When subjected to high-fat diet (HFD), Rab18 AKO mice had increased ER stress and inflammation, reduced adiponectin, and decreased triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation in SAT. In contrast, TAG accumulation in VAT, brown adipose tissue (BAT) or liver of Rab18 AKO mice had a moderate increase without ER stress stimulation. Rab18 AKO mice developed insulin resistance and systematic inflammation. Rab18 AKO mice maintained body temperature in response to acute and chronic cold induction with a thermogenic SAT, similar to the counterpart mice. Furthermore, Rab18-deficient 3T3-L1 adipocytes were more prone to palmitate-induced ER stress, indicating the involvement of Rab18 in alleviating lipid toxicity. Rab18 AKO mice provide a good animal model to investigate metabolic disorders such as impaired SAT. In conclusion, our studies reveal that Rab18 is a key and specific regulator that maintains the proper functions of SAT by alleviating lipid-induced ER stress.

Abstract
The Ningxiang pig, a distinguished local breed in China, is recognized for its good meat quality traits. This study examines the proteomics of Ningxiang pigs at three developmental stages and delves into the upstream transcriptomics of these proteomics. Such an analysis facilitates a deeper understanding of the molecular interplay between proteins and transcriptomes in the Ningxiang pig muscle, influencing muscle growth and development. In this research, we analyzed the muscles of Ningxiang pigs at three developmental stages: 30 days in weaned piglets, 90 days in nursery pigs, and 210 days in late fattening pigs. There a total of 16 differentially co-expressed miRNAs (ssc-miRNA-1, ssc-miRNA-378, ssc-miRNA-143, ssc-miRNA-30e, etc.), 74 differentially co-expressed mRNA (PLIN3, CPT2, IGF2 and HSP90AB1, etc.) have been identified in the three stages. 572 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) (APOC3, NDUFA2, HSPD1, ATP5E, PDHA1, etc.) were readily identified by comparing different time periods. According to the KEGG enrich pathway results that DAPs most enriched in growth and development pathways, immune mechanism pathways and maintaining functions of physical. Through short time-series expression miner (STEM) association analysis, a total of 571 negative miRNA-mRNA interaction pairs and 2 negative miRNA-mRNA-protein (Chr05_11955-Pig.17268.1-ATP5F1B, ssc-miR-194a-3p-Pig.15802.1-ACY1) interaction pairs were found. Our study provides a theoretical basis on molecular mechanism for the study of IMF deposition, muscle growth and immunity in Ningxiang pig breed.

Abstract
Intramuscular fat (IMF) plays an important role in the tenderness, water-holding capacity, and flavor of chicken meat, which directly affect meat quality. In recent years, regulatory mechanisms underlying IMF deposition and the development of effective molecular markers have been hot topics in poultry genetic breeding. Therefore, this review focuses on the current understanding of regulatory mechanisms underlying IMF deposition in chickens, which were identified by multiple genomic approaches, including genome-wide association studies, whole transcriptome sequencing, proteome sequencing, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (HiC), DNA methylation sequencing, and m6A methylation sequencing. This review comprehensively and systematically describes genetic and epigenetic factors associated with IMF deposition, which provides a fundamental resource for biomarkers of IMF deposition and provides promising applications for genetic improvement of meat quality in chicken.

Abstract
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis confers beneficial effects on metabolic diseases such as obesity and type-2 diabetes. Nevertheless, the mechanism and lipid driving the process that evokes this response have not been investigated yet. Here, a multiomics approach of integrative transcriptomics and lipidomics is used to explore the mechanism of regulating thermogenesis in BAT and providing promising lipid biomarkers and biomarker genes for thermogenic activators as antiobesity drugs. Lipidomics analysis demonstrated that a high abundance of glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids was more significant in BAT than in WAT. Enrichment analysis of upregulated DEGs between WAT and BAT screened suggested that the differences were mainly involved in lipid metabolism. Besides, β3-adrenergic agonist stimulation reduced the levels of TAG and DAG and increased the content of PC, PE, CL, and LPC and expression of genes involved in thermogenesis, fatty acid elongation, and glycerophospholipid metabolism in BAT. In this study, based on interpreting the inherent characterization of BAT as thermogenic tissue through comparison with WAT as fat storage tissue, adrenergic stimulation-induced BAT thermogenesis further identified specific lipid biomarkers (7 TAG species, 10 PC species, 1 LPC species, and 1 CL species) and Elovl3 and Crat gene biomarkers, which may provide targets for combating obesity by boosting BAT thermogenesis.

Integrated LC/MS-based lipidomics and transcriptomics analyses revealed lipid composition heterogeneity between pectoralis intramuscular fat and abdominal fat and its regulatory mechanism in chicken. Food Res Int 2023; 172:113083. [PMID: 37689861 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2022] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023]
Abstract
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is conducive to multiple meat quality properties, while abdominal fat (AF) is treated as waste product in chicken industry. However, the heterogeneity and distinct regulatory mechanisms of lipid composition between the IMF and AF are still unclear. In this study, we carried out non-targeted lipidomics analyses of pectoralis IMF and AF, and detected a total of 423 differential lipid molecules (DLMs) between chicken IMF and AF, including 307 up-regulated and 116 down-regulated DLMs in pectoral IMF. These DLMs exhibited the definite alteration of lipid composition. The up-reglated DLMs in IMF were mainly glycerophospholipids (GPs), including the bulk of phosphatidylcholines (PC, PC (P) and PC (O)), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE, PE (P) and PE (O)), phosphatidylglycerols (PG) and phosphatidylinositol (PI), while the up-reglated DLMs in AF were mainly glycerolipids (GLs), including most of triacylglycerols (TG) and diacylglycerols (DG). We further identified 28 main DLMs contributing to the heterogeneous deposition of IMF and AF, including 11 TGs common to IMF and AF, 12 PCs/PC (P)s specific to IMF and 5 DGs specific to AF. Further integration of transcriptome with the main DLMs by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), we found five key gene sets that included 386 unique genes promoting IMF deposition in pectoralis, 213 unique genes promoting AF deposition, 6 unique genes detrimental to AF deposition, 7 common genes that promote IMF deposition in pectoralis while adversely affect AF deposition, and 28 genes that only promoted IMF deposition in pectoralis but had no effect on AF deposition. In addition, we also observed the expression characteristics of key genes in vivo and in vitro, and found that transmembrane protein family gene TMEM164 might be mainly involved in the positive regulation of intramuscular fat deposition in pectoralis and zinc finger protein family gene ZNF488 had a potential unique positive regulatory function on abdominal fat deposition. These findings provide new perspectives for understanding IMF and AF heterodeposition and will serve as a valuable information resource for improving meat quality via breeding selection in chicken.

Abstract
Lipids are crucial components for the maintenance oof normal structure and function in the nervous system. Elucidating the diversity of lipids in spinal cords may contribute to our understanding of neurodevelopment. This study comprehensively analyzed the fatty acid (FA) compositions and lipidomes of the spinal cords of eight domesticated animal species: pig, cattle, yak, goat, horse, donkey, camel, and sika deer. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed that saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) were the primary FAs in the spinal cords of these domesticated animals, accounting for 72.54-94.23% of total FAs. Notably, oleic acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid emerged as the most abundant FA species. Moreover, untargeted lipidomics by UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS demonstrated that five lipid classes, including glycerophospholipids (GPs), sphingolipids (SPs), glycerolipids (GLs), FAs and saccharolipids (SLs), were identified in the investigated spinal cords, with phosphatidylcholine (PC) being the most abundant among all identified lipid classes. Furthermore, canonical correlation analysis showed that PC, PE, TAG, HexCer-NS and SM were significantly associated with genome sequence data. These informative data provide insight into the structure and function of mammalian nervous tissues and represent a novel contribution to lipidomics.

Molecules 2023; 28:5595. [PMID: 37513467 PMCID: PMC10384603 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28145595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2023] [Revised: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Chitooligosaccharide (COS) is a natural product from the ocean, and while many studies have reported its important role in metabolic diseases, no study has systematically elaborated the anti-obesity effect and mechanism of COS. Herein, COSM (MW ≤ 3000 Da) was administered to diet-induced obese mice by oral gavage once daily for eight weeks. The results show that COSM administration reduced body weight; slowed weight gain; reduced serum Glu, insulin, NEFA, TC, TG, and LDL-C levels; increased serum HSL and HDL-C levels; improved inflammation; and reduced lipid droplet size in adipose tissue. Further lipidomic analysis of adipose tissue revealed that 31 lipid species are considered to be underlying lipid biomarkers in COS therapy. These lipids are mainly enriched in pathways involving insulin resistance, thermogenesis, cholesterol metabolism, glyceride metabolism and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), which sheds light on the weight loss mechanism of COS. The Western blot assay demonstrated that COSM intervention can improve insulin resistance, inhibit de novo synthesis, and promote thermogenesis and β-oxidation in mitochondria by the AMPK pathway, thereby alleviating high-fat diet-induced obesity. In short, our study can provide a more comprehensive direction for the application of COS in obesity based on molecular markers.

Abstract
The storage of lipids as energy in adipose tissue (AT) has been conserved over the course of evolution. However, substantial differences in ATs physiological activities were reported among species. Hence, establishing the mechanisms shaping evolutionarily divergence in ATs transcriptomes could provide a deeper understanding of AT regulation and its roles in obesity-related diseases. While previous studies performed anatomical, physiological and morphological comparisons between ATs across different species, little is currently understood at the molecular phenotypic levels. Here, we characterized transcriptional and lipidomic profiles of available subcutaneous and visceral ATs samples across 15 vertebrate species, spanning more than 300 million years of evolution, including placental mammals, birds and reptiles. We provide detailed descriptions of the datasets produced in this study and report gene expression and lipid profiles across samples. We demonstrate these data are robust and reveal the AT transcriptome and lipidome vary greater among species than within the same species. These datasets may serve as a resource for future studies on the functional differences among ATs in vertebrate species.

Abstract
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) called tsRNAs (tRNA-derived short RNAs) have the ability to regulate gene expression. The information on tsRNAs in fat tissue is, however, limited. By sequencing, identifying, and analyzing tsRNAs using pigs as animal models, this research reports for the first time the characteristics of tsRNAs in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT). A total of 474 tsRNAs, 20 and 21 of which were particularly expressed in VAT and SAT, respectively, were found in WAT. According to the analysis of the tsRNA/miRNA/mRNA co-expression network, the tsRNAs with differential expression were primarily engaged in the endocrine and immune systems, which fall under the classification of organic systems, as well as the global and overview maps and lipid metropolis, which fall under the category of metabolism. This research also discovered a connection between the activity of the host tRNA engaged in translation and the production of tsRNAs. This research also discovered that tRF-Gly-GCC-037/tRF-Gly-GCC-042/tRF-Gly-CCC-016 and miR-218a/miR281b may be involved in the regulation of fatty acid metabolism in adipose tissue through SCD based on the tsRNA/miRNA/mRNA/fatty acid network. In conclusion, our findings enrich the understanding of ncRNAs in WAT metabolism and health regulation, as well as reveal the differences between SAT and VAT at the level of tsRNAs.

Impaired white adipose tissue fatty acid metabolism in mice fed a high-fat diet worsened by arsenic exposure, primarily affecting retroperitoneal adipose tissue.

Abstract
Fatty acid (FA) metabolism dysfunction of white adipose tissue (WAT) underlies obesity and insulin resistance in response to high calorie intake and/or endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), among other factors. Arsenic is an EDC that has been associated with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. However, the combined effect of a high-fat diet (HFD) and arsenic exposure on WAT FA metabolism has been little studied. FA metabolism was evaluated in visceral (epididymal and retroperitoneal) and subcutaneous WAT of C57BL/6 male mice fed control or HFD (12 and 40% kcal fat, respectively) for 16 weeks together with an environmentally relevant chronic arsenic exposure through drinking water (100 μg/l) during the second half of the study. In mice fed HFD, arsenic potentiated the increase of serum markers of selective insulin resistance in WAT and fatty acid re-esterification and the decrease in the lipolysis index. Retroperitoneal was the WAT most affected, where the combination of arsenic and HFD in contrast to HFD, generated higher weight, larger adipocytes, increased triglyceride content, and decreased fasting stimulated lipolysis evidenced by lower phosphorylation of HSL and perilipin. At the transcriptional level, arsenic in mice fed either diet downregulated genes involved in fatty acid uptake (LPL, CD36), oxidation (PPARα, CPT1), lipolysis (ADRß3) and glycerol transport (AQP7 and AQP9). Additionally, arsenic potentiated hyperinsulinemia induced by HFD, despite a slight increase in weight gain and food efficiency. Thus, the second hit of arsenic in sensitized mice by HFD worsens fatty acid metabolism impairment in WAT, mainly retroperitoneal, along with an exacerbated insulin resistance phenotype.

Abstract
CONTEXT Existing studies focusing on the effects of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) combined with normal prepregnant weight on pregnancy outcomes are limited. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the relationship between maternal NAFLD and adverse pregnancy outcomes in different body mass index (BMI) groups. METHODS Using an antenatal care and delivery database, we retrospectively analyzed women who delivered in Minhang Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, Shanghai, China from January 1, 2013, to June 30, 2020. NAFLD was confirmed by ultrasound in early pregnancy. A logistic regression model with adjustment for confounders was used to examine potential associations between NAFLD and pregnancy outcomes. RESULTS A total of 14 708 pregnant women (mean prepregnant BMI 21.0 [SD, 2.8] kg/m2) were included in our final study, of whom 554 (3.8%) had NAFLD. After fully adjusting for potential confounders, NAFLD significantly increased the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (adjusted odds ratio 2.477; 95% CI, 1.885-3.254), gestational hypertension (3.054; 2.191-4.257), preeclampsia/eclampsia (3.994; 2.591-6.005), cesarean section (1.569; 1.315-1.872), preterm births (1.831; 1.229-2.727), and macrosomia (1.691; 1.300-2.198). It is notable that 83.9% (12 338) of women were of normal weight at the start of pregnancy (prepregnant 18.5 ≤ BMI < 24 kg/m2), and they still had higher odds of adverse pregnancy outcomes. CONCLUSION Women with NAFLD and a normal weight have a higher risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes. Pregnant women with NAFLD, regardless of obesity status, should be offered a more qualified surveillance to optimize pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) refers to a reduction in the ability of insulin to exert its metabolic effects in organs such as adipose tissue (AT) and skeletal muscle (SM), leading to chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hepatic steatosis, and cardiovascular diseases. Obesity is the main cause of IR, however not all subjects with obesity develop clinical insulin resistance, and not all clinically insulin-resistant people have obesity. Recent evidence implies that IR onset is tissue-dependent (AT or SM) and/or substrate-specific (glucometabolic or lipometabolic). Therefore, the aims of the present review are 1) to describe the glucometabolic and lipometabolic activities of insulin in AT and SM in the maintenance of whole-body metabolic homeostasis, 2) to discuss the pathophysiology of substrate-specific IR in AT and SM, and 3) to highlight novel validated tests to assess tissue and substrate-specific IR that are easy to perform in clinical practice. In AT, glucometabolic IR reduces glucose availability for glycerol and fatty acid synthesis, thus decreasing the esterification and synthesis of signaling bioactive lipids. Lipometabolic IR in AT impairs the antilipolytic effect of insulin and lipogenesis, leading to an increase in circulating FFAs and generating lipotoxicity in peripheral tissues. In SM, glucometabolic IR reduces glucose uptake, whereas lipometabolic IR impairs mitochondrial lipid oxidation, increasing oxidative stress and inflammation, all of which lead to metabolic inflexibility. Understanding tissue-dependent and substrate-specific IR is of paramount importance for early detection before clinical manifestations and for the development of more specific treatments or direct interventions to prevent chronic life-threatening diseases.

Abstract
Insulin dysregulation (ID) is a determinant of equine metabolic syndrome. Among the sphingolipids, ceramides contribute to the development of ID; however, the crosstalk between the liver and adipose tissue (AT) depots and the variation among AT depots in terms of ceramide metabolism are not well-understood. We aimed to characterize the sphingolipidome of plasma, liver, and AT (nuchal, NUAT; subcutaneous, SCAT; omental, OMAT; retroperitoneal, RPAT) and their associations with insulin response to oral glucose testing (OGT) in normoinsulinemic and hyperinsulinemic horses. Plasma, liver, and AT samples were collected from 12 Icelandic horses upon euthanasia and analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Eighty-four targeted compounds were effectively quantified. Comparing the AT depots, greater (FDR < 0.05) ceramide, dihydroceramide, and sphingomyelin concentrations and lower glucosyl- and galactosyl-ceramides were found in RPAT and OMAT than in NUAT and SCAT. Hyperinsulinemic response to OGT was associated with sphingolipidome alterations primarily in the RPAT and OMAT, while the NUAT sphingolipidome did not show signs of ceramide accumulation, which was inconsistent with the previously proposed role of nuchal adiposity in ID. The plasma sphingolipidome was not significantly associated with the liver or AT sphingolipidomes, indicating that plasma profiles are determined by an interplay of various organs. Further, hepatic sphingolipid profiles were not correlated with the profiles of AT depots. Finally, statistically valid partial least square regression models predicting insulin response were found in the plasma (Q2= 0.58, R2= 0.98), liver (Q2= 0.64, R2= 0.74), and RPAT (Q2= 0.68, R2= 0.79) sphingolipidome, but not in the other adipose tissues.

Abstract
Obesity has become a global epidemic, and it is a major risk factor for other metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes and cardiometabolic disease. Accumulating evidence indicates that there is sex-specific metabolic protection and disease susceptibility. For instance, in both clinical and experimental studies, males are more likely to develop obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. In line with this, males tend to have more visceral white adipose tissue (WAT) and less brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenic activity, both leading to an increased incidence of metabolic disorders. This female-specific fat distribution is partially mediated by sex hormone estrogens. Specifically, hypothalamic estrogen signaling plays a vital role in regulating WAT distribution, WAT beiging, and BAT thermogenesis. These regulatory effects on adipose tissue metabolism are primarily mediated by the activation of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) in neurons, which interacts with hormones and adipokines such as leptin, ghrelin, and insulin. This review discusses the contribution of adipose tissue dysfunction to obesity and the role of hypothalamic estrogen signaling in preventing metabolic diseases with a particular focus on the VMH, the central regulator of energy expenditure and glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
GLP-1 analogs are a class of glucose-lowering agents with multiple benefits in diabetes, but its role in adipose tissues remains to be elucidated. The aim of this study was to determine the action of recombinant human GLP-1 (rhGLP-1) Beinaglutide (BN) in the insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism of adipose tissues. We have shown that, after BN injection, obese mice displayed lower body weight, fat mass, and plasma lipid levels. In addition, BN promoted the insulin sensitivity in the white adipose tissues. Furthermore, we have found that the BN treatment caused significant changes in content and composition of different lipid classes, including glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, and sphingolipids, as well as expression of genes in lipid metabolic pathways in the adipose tissues. Taken together, our data demonstrate that BN could resist HFD-induced obesity by targeting the composition of major lipid classes and the expression of genes in lipid metabolism of adipose tissues. Recombinant human GLP-1 Beinaglutide (BN) reduces high-fat-diet-induced obesity BN increases insulin sensitivity of adipocytes in vivo and in vitro BN alters lipidomic and transcriptomic profiles in adipose tissues of obese mice BN promotes thermogenic gene expression in adipose tissues

Abstract
Intramuscular fat (IMF) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) are both lipids, but have significantly different deposition processes. Furthermore, the heterogeneity of lipid molecular characteristics and mechanisms is unclear. Accordingly, this study used non-targeted lipidomics and transcriptomics to analyze the lipid profiles and metabolism of longissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) and VAT from donkeys. A total of 1,146 and 1,134 lipids belonging to 18 subclasses were identified in LDM and VAT, respectively, with LDM having higher glycerophospholipid (GP) and lower glycerolipid (GL) contents. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were distributed preferentially at the sn-1 positions in triglycerides (TGs), and sn-2 positions in phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The percentage PUFA content in TGs was significantly lower in LDM than in VAT, while the opposite trend was observed for PUFAs in PC and PE. A total of 110 different lipid molecules (72 downregulated and 38 upregulated) were identified in LDM compared with VAT, of which 11 were considered potential lipid markers. These different lipids were involved in 17 metabolic pathways, including GL and GP metabolisms. Of the 578 differentially expressed genes screened, 311 were downregulated and 267 were upregulated in LDM compared with VAT. Enriched ontology analysis of the differentially expressed genes mainly involved sphingolipid signaling pathways, and GP, GL, and sphingolipid metabolisms. Overall, lipidomics and transcriptomics indicated differences in lipid profiles and metabolism in LDM and VAT, providing new perspectives for the study of heterogeneity in IMF and VAT.

Abstract
Recent studies have predominantly focused on the role of B cells in metabolic diseases, yet the function of B cells in adipose homeostasis remains unclear. Pax transactivation domain-interacting protein (PTIP), a licensing factor for humoral immunity, is necessary for B cell development and activation. Here, using mice that lack PTIP in B cells (PTIP-/- mice), we explored the role of B cells in adipose homeostasis under physiological conditions. Fat deposition in 8-week-old mice was measured by micro-CT, and PTIP-/- mice presented a marked decrease in the deposition of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). Untargeted lipidomics revealed that the triglyceride composition in SAT was altered in PTIP-/- mice. In addition, there was no difference in the number of adipocyte progenitor cells in the SAT of wild-type (WT) and PTIP-/- mice as measured by flow cytometry. To study the effects of steady-state IgM and IgG antibody levels on fat deposition, PTIP-/- mice were injected intraperitoneally with serum from WT mice once every 3-4 days for 4 weeks. The iSAT mass of the recipient mice showed no significant increase in comparison to the controls after 4 weeks of injections. Our findings reveal that PTIP plays an essential role in regulating subcutaneous adipocyte size, triglyceride composition, and fat deposition under physiological conditions by controlling B cells. The decreased subcutaneous fat deposition in PTIP-/- mice does not appear to be related to the number of adipocyte progenitor cells. The steady-state levels of IgM and IgG antibodies in vivo are not associated with the subcutaneous fat deposition.

Proteomic and lipidomic analyses reveal saturated fatty acids, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, and associated proteins contributing to intramuscular fat deposition. J Proteomics 2021; 241:104235. [PMID: 33894376 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2021.104235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Revised: 04/05/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important factor in porcine meat quality. Previous studies have screened multiple candidate genes related to IMF deposition, but the lipids that affect IMF deposition and their lipid-protein network remain unknown. In this study, we performed proteomic and lipidomic analyses of the longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle from high-IMF (IMFH) and low-IMF (IMF-L) groups of Xidu black pigs. Eighty-eight proteins and 143 lipids were differentially abundant between the groups. The differentially abundant proteins were found to be involved in cholesterol metabolism, the PPAR signaling pathway, and ferroptosis. The triacylglycerols (TAGs) upregulated in the IMF-H group were mainly shown to be synthesized by saturated fatty acids (SFAs), while the downregulated TAGs were mainly synthesized by polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). All differentially abundant phosphatidylinositols (PIs) and phosphatidylserines (PSs) were found to be upregulated in the IMF-H group. A correlation analysis of the proteomic and lipidomic revealed candidate proteins (APOA4, VDAC3, PRNP, CTSB, GSPT1) related to TAG, PI, and PS lipids. These results revealed differences in proteins and lipids between the IMF-H and IMF-L groups, which represent new candidate proteins and lipids that should be investigated to determine the molecular mechanisms controlling IMF deposition in pigs. SIGNIFICANCE: Intramuscular fat (IMF) is a key factor affecting meat quality, and meat with a higher IMF content can have a better flavor. In this study, proteomic results show that the ferroptosis pathway, including the PRNP, VDAC3 and CP proteins, affects IMF deposition. Lipid composition is the key factor affecting IMF deposition, but there are few reports on this. In this study, through lipidomic analysis, we suggest that saturated fatty acid (SFA), phosphatidylinositol (PI), and phosphatidylserine (PS) may contribute to IMF deposition. A correlation analysis reveals the potential regulatory network between lipids and proteins. This study clarifies the difference in protein and lipid compositions in longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle with high and low IMF contents. This information suggests that it would be beneficial to increase the intramuscular fat content of pork not only from a genetic perspective but also from a nutritional perspective.

Abstract
Since the first isolation of mesenchymal stem cells from lipoaspirate in the early 2000s, adipose tissue has been a darling of regenerative medicine. It is abundant, easy to access, and contains high concentrations of stem cells (ADSCs) exhibiting multipotency, proregenerative paracrine signaling, and immunomodulation—a winning combination for stem cell-based therapeutics. While basic science, preclinical and clinical findings back up the translational potential of ADSCs, the vast majority of these used cells from a single location—subcutaneous abdominal fat. New data highlight incredible diversity in the adipose morphology and function in different anatomical locations or depots. Even in isolation, ADSCs retain a memory of this diversity, suggesting that the optimal adipose source material for ADSC isolation may be application specific. This review discusses our current understanding of the heterogeneity in the adipose organ, how that heterogeneity translates into depot-specific ADSC characteristics, and how atypical ADSC populations might be harnessed for regenerative medicine applications. While our understanding of the breadth of ADSC heterogeneity is still in its infancy, clear trends are emerging for application-specific sourcing to improve regenerative outcomes.

Abstract
Lipids are highly diverse in their composition, properties and distribution in different biological entities. We aim to establish the lipidomes of several insulin-sensitive tissues and to test their plasticity when divergent feeding regimens and lifestyles are imposed. Here, we report a proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) study of lipid abundance across 4 tissues of C57Bl6J male mice that includes the changes in the lipid profile after every lifestyle intervention. Every tissue analysed presented a specific lipid profile irrespective of interventions. Glycerolipids and fatty acids were most abundant in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) followed by liver, whereas sterol lipids and phosphoglycerolipids were highly enriched in hypothalamus, and gastrocnemius had the lowest content in all lipid species compared to the other tissues. Both when subjected to a high-fat diet (HFD) and after a subsequent lifestyle intervention (INT), the lipidome of hypothalamus showed no changes. Gastrocnemius and liver revealed a pattern of increase in content in many lipid species after HFD followed by a regression to basal levels after INT, while eWAT lipidome was affected mainly by the fat composition of the administered diets and not their caloric density. Thus, the present study demonstrates a unique lipidome for each tissue modulated by caloric intake and dietary composition.

Abstract
Adipose tissue has been the subject of research for a very long time. Many studies perform a comprehensive analysis of different types of adipose tissue with an emphasis on brown adipose tissue. Mass spectrometry-based approaches are particularly useful in the exploration not only of the metabolic composition of adipose tissue but also its function. In the presented review, a complex and critical overview of publications devoted to the analysis of adipose tissue by means of mass spectrometry was performed. Detailed investigation of analytical aspects related to either untargeted or targeted analysis of adipose tissue was performed, leading to the formation of a collection of hints at the available analytical methods. Moreover, a profound analysis of the metabolic composition of brown adipose tissue was performed. Brown adipose tissue metabolome was characterized on structural and functional levels, providing information about its exact metabolic composition but also connecting these molecules and placing them into biochemical pathways. All our work resulted in a very broad picture of the analysis of adipose tissue, starting from the analytical aspects and finishing on the current knowledge about its composition.
