Crosstalk between corepressor NRIP1 and cAMP signaling on adipocyte thermogenic programming

OBJECTIVES: Nuclear receptor interacting protein 1 (NRIP1) suppresses energy expenditure via repression of nuclear receptors, and its depletion markedly elevates uncoupled respiration in mouse and human adipocytes. We tested whether NRIP1 deficient adipocytes implanted into obese mice would enhance whole body metabolism. Since β-adrenergic signaling through cAMP strongly promotes adipocyte thermogenesis, we tested whether the effects of NRIP1 knock-out (NRIP1KO) require the cAMP pathway. METHODS: NRIP1KO adipocytes were implanted in recipient high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice and metabolic cage studies conducted. The Nrip1 gene was disrupted by CRISPR in primary preadipocytes isolated from control vs adipose selective GsαKO (cAdGsαKO) mice prior to differentiation to adipocytes. Protein kinase A inhibitor was also used. RESULTS: Implanting NRIP1KO adipocytes into HFD fed mice enhanced whole-body glucose tolerance by increasing insulin sensitivity, reducing adiposity, and enhancing energy expenditure in the recipients. NRIP1 depletion in both control and GsαKO adipocytes was equally effective in upregulating uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and adipocyte beiging, while β-adrenergic signaling by CL 316,243 was abolished in GsαKO adipocytes. Combining NRIP1KO with CL 316,243 treatment synergistically increased Ucp1 gene expression and increased the adipocyte subpopulation responsive to beiging. Estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) was dispensable for UCP1 upregulation by NRIPKO. CONCLUSIONS: The thermogenic effect of NRIP1 depletion in adipocytes causes systemic enhancement of energy expenditure when such adipocytes are implanted into obese mice. Furthermore, NRIP1KO acts independently but cooperatively with the cAMP pathway in mediating its effect on adipocyte beiging.
