Survivin is essential for thermogenic program and metabolic homeostasis in mice
OBJECTIVE: Survivin is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family. Our previous study showed that survivin expression could be strongly induced by long-term, high-fat diet (HFD) exposure in vivo. It could also be induced by insulin through the PI3K/mTOR signaling pathway in vitro. Therefore, we h...

description | OBJECTIVE: Survivin is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family. Our previous study showed that survivin expression could be strongly induced by long-term, high-fat diet (HFD) exposure in vivo. It could also be induced by insulin through the PI3K/mTOR signaling pathway in vitro. Therefore, we hypothesized that under certain conditions, survivin expression might be required for adipocyte function. In the current study, we aim to further investigate the regulation of survivin expression in mature adipocytes upon various nutritional stimuli and the role of survivin using adipocyte-specific survivin knockout (SKO) mice. METHODS: SKO mice were obtained by crossing survivin(flox/flox) mice with Adiponectin-Cre(+/-) mice. The overall metabolic phenotype was observed under chow diet (CD) and HFD feeding conditions. The thermogenic program of mice was detected upon cold exposure. The inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) stromal vascular fraction cells were isolated and differentiated into mature adipocytes, and the effects of survivin deletion on mature adipocyte function were detected in vitro. RESULTS: Survivin expression in adipose tissue and adipocytes was regulated by short-term nutritional stress both in vivo and in vitro. The postnatal development of BAT was impaired in SKO mice, which resulted in drastically reduced BAT mass and decreased expression of the thermogenic protein Ucp1 in 24-week-old mice fed with CD. After HFD feeding, the iWAT and BAT mass of SKO mice were significantly decreased, causing ectopic lipid accumulation in the liver, which was associated with insulin resistance and glucose intolerance. Upon cold exposure, the expression of thermogenic genes and proteins was markedly reduced in BAT and iWAT of SKO mice, accompanied by abnormal mitochondrial structure and induced autophagy. Consistently, thermogenic program and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation were reduced in survivin-depleted brown and beige adipocytes in vitro. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings showed that survivin could be regulated by nutritional stress in adipocytes and revealed a new role of survivin in maintaining normal BAT mass and positively regulating the thermogenic program and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. |
