Background

Adipose tissue is a source of multiple factors that modulate systemic insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular risk. Taurine is obtained from the diet but it is less known that it is endogenously synthesized by cysteine dioxygenase type 1 (CDO1). CDO1 exerts a role in adipose tissue from rodent models, but the potential translational value in humans is not available in the literature.

Methods

CDO1 gene expression was analysed in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue samples in association with metabolic traits in participants with different degrees of obesity in four independent cohorts. CDO1 was also evaluated in isolated human adipocytes in vitro. Mechanistically, CDO1gene knockdown (KD) of human preadipocytes and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC52telo) (using lentiviral particles) was also evaluated. Mitochondrial respiratory function of adipocytes was evaluated using Seahorse.

Findings

Both visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) CDO1 mRNA was associated with gene expression markers of adipose tissue function in the four cohorts. Higher CDO1 expression was linked to decreased fasting triglycerides and blood HbA1c even after adjusting by age, BMI and sex. In addition, CDO1 mRNA positively correlated with the expression of genes involved in adipogenesis and negatively with different inflammatory markers. Both VAT and SAT CDO1 mRNA was mainly expressed in adipocytes and significantly increased during adipocyte differentiation, but attenuated under inflammatory conditions. Mechanistically, CDO1 gene KD reduced taurine biosynthesis, evidencing lower CDO1 activity. In both human preadipocytes and ASC52telo cells, CDO1 gene KD resulted in decreased gene expression markers of adipogenesis (ADIPOQ, FABP4, FASN, SLC2A4, CEBPA) and increased inflammatory genes (TNF and IL6) during adipocyte differentiation. Of note, CDO1 gene KD led to decreased mitochondrial respiratory function in parallel to decreased expression of mitochondrial function-, but not biogenesis-related genes.

Interpretation

Current findings show the relevance of CDO1 in adipose tissue physiology, suggesting its contribution to an improved systemic metabolic profile.
