Project Title:Uncoupling Metabolic Health from Thermogenesis via BCAA Flux in Brown Fat
Project Type:MS quantitative analysis
Project Summary:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is best known for thermogenesis. Whereas numerous studies in rodents found tight associations between the metabolic benefits of BAT and enhanced whole-body energy expenditure, emerging evidence in humans suggests that BAT is protective against Type 2 diabetes independent of body-weight. The underlying mechanism for this dissociation remained unclear. Here, we report that impaired mitochondrial flux of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) in BAT, by deleting mitochondrial BCAA carrier (MBC, encoded by Slc25a44), was sufficient to cause systemic insulin resistance without affecting whole-body energy expenditure or body-weight. We found that brown adipocytes catabolized BCAAs in the mitochondria as essential nitrogen donors for the biosynthesis of glutamate, N-acetylated amino acids, and one of the products, glutathione. BAT-selective impairment in mitochondrial BCAA flux led to elevated oxidative stress and insulin resistance in the liver, accompanied by reduced levels of BCAA-derived metabolites in the circulation. In turn, supplementation of glutathione restored insulin sensitivity of BAT-specific MBC knockout mice. Notably, a high-fat diet rapidly impaired BCAA catabolism and the synthesis of BCAA-nitrogen derived metabolites in the BAT, while cold-induced BAT activity is coupled with an active synthesis of these metabolites. Together, the present work uncovers a mechanism through which brown fat controls metabolic health independent of thermogenesis via BCAA-derived nitrogen carriers acting on the liver.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO003113
Collection Summary:Animals were sacrificed immediately by cervical dislocation and tissues were rapidly extracted and immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for metabolite profiling.
Sample Type:Adipose tissue

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR003129
Treatment Summary:All mice were housed under a 12 h – 12 h light/dark cycle. Room-temperature mice were housed at 23˚C in ventilated cages with an ACH of 25. Mice housed at thermal neutral conditions were housed in an incubator at 30˚C. Mice exposed to cold were individually housed in an incubator set to 6˚C. Mice were fed a standard diet (Lab Diet 5008) and had free access to food and water.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP003126
Sampleprep Summary:For metabolite extraction, tissues were weighed and then homogenized with extraction buffer which consisted of 80% methanol containing Phenylalanine-D₈ internal standard at a 40:1 volume to wet weight ratio. Samples were then centrifuged at 16,000 x g at 4 °C for 15 min. Finally, 50 μL supernatant was transferred to the glass insert for LC-MS detection.
