Blockade of TGF-β signalling alleviates human adipose stem cell senescence induced by native ECM in obesity visceral white adipose tissue.
Stem Cell Research & Therapy 2023 October 9
BACKGROUND: Abdominal obesity is appreciated as a major player in insulin resistance and metabolically dysfunctional adipose tissue. Inappropriate extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling and functional alterations in human adipose stromal/stem cells (hASCs) have been linked with visceral white adipose tissue (vWAT) dysfunction in obesity. Understanding the interactions between hASCs and the native ECM environment in obese vWAT is required for the development of future therapeutic approaches for obesity-associated metabolic complications.
METHODS: The phenotypes and transcriptome properties of hASCs from the vWAT of obese patients and lean donors were assessed. The hASC-derived matrix from vWAT of obese or lean patients was generated in vitro using a decellularized method. The topography and the major components of the hASC-derived matrix were determined. The effects of the obese hASC-derived matrix on cell senescence and mitochondrial function were further determined.
RESULTS: We showed that hASCs derived from the vWAT of obese patients exhibited senescence and were accompanied by the increased production of ECM. The matrix secreted by obese hASCs formed a fibrillar suprastructure with an abundance of fibronectin, type I collagen, and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), which resembles the native matrix microenvironment of hASCs in vWAT derived from obese patients. Furthermore, the obese hASC-derived matrix promoted lean hASC ageing and induced mitochondrial dysfunction compared to the lean hASC-derived matrix. Blockade of TGF-β1 signalling using an anti-TGF-β1 neutralizing antibody alleviated the lean hASC senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction induced by the obese hASC-derived matrix.
CONCLUSIONS: Native ECM in obesity vWAT initiates hASC senescence through TGF-β1-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction. These data provide a key mechanism for understanding the importance of cell-ECM interactions in hASCs senescence in obesity.
