Abstract

Background: The hallmark of obesity is the excessive accumulation of triglyceride (TG) in adipose tissue. Apolipoprotein A5 (ApoA5) has been shown to influence the prevalence and pathogenesis of obesity. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be clarified.

Methods: Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) were treated with 600 ng/ml human recombinant ApoA5 protein. The effect of ApoA5 on intracellular TG content and adipogenic related factors expression were determined. Furthermore, the effect of ApoA5 on CIDE-C expression was also observed.

Results: During the process of adipogenesis, ApoA5 treatment reduced the intracellular accumulation of lipid droplets and the TG levels; meanwhile, ApoA5 down-regulated the expression levels of adipogenic related factors, including CCAAT enhancer-binding proteins α/β (C/EBPα/β), fatty acid synthetase (FAS), and fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4). Furthermore, the suppression of adipogenesis by ApoA5 was mediated through the inhibition of CIDE-C expression, an important factor which promotes the process of adipogenesis. However, over-expressing intracellular CIDE-C could lead to the loss-of-function of ApoA5 in inhibiting AMSCs adipogenesis.

Conclusions: In conclusion, ApoA5 inhibits the adipogenic process of AMSCs through, at least partly, down-regulating CIDE-C expression. The present study provides novel mechanisms whereby ApoA5 prevents obesity via AMSCs in humans.

Keywords: Apolipoprotein A5, CIDE-C, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, adipogenesis, inhibit, AMSCs.
