dc.description.abstract | Part I. Angiopoietin-2–integrin $\alpha5\beta1$ signaling enhances vascular fatty acid transport and prevents obesity-induced metabolic syndrome Metabolically healthy obese individuals show efficient fat storage in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) than unhealthy counterparts, yet the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Here, I identify angiopoietin-2 (Angpt2)–integrin $\alpha5\beta1$ signaling as a marker of healthy obesity and inducer of fat uptake specifically in SAT. Adipocyte-specific deletion of Angpt2 markedly reduces fatty acid uptake and storage in SAT, leading to ectopic lipid accumulation in glucose-consuming organs including skeletal muscle and liver and to systemic glucose intolerance. Mechanistically, Angpt2 activates integrin $\alpha5\beta1$ signaling at the endothelium and triggers fatty acid transport via CD36 and FATP3 in SAT. Genetic or pharmacological inhibition of the endothelial integrin $\alpha5\beta1$ recapitulates adipocyte-specific Angpt2 knockout phenotypes. The findings demonstrate critical roles for Angpt2–integrin $\alpha5\beta1$ signaling at SAT endothelium in regulating whole-body fat distribution for metabolic health and highlight adipocyte–endothelial crosstalk as a potential target for prevention of lipotoxicity and glucose intolerance. Part II. YAP/TAZ direct commitment and reprogramming of lymph node fibroblastic reticular cells Fibroblastic Reticular Cells (FRCs) are immunologically specialized myofibroblasts of mesen-chymal origin that forms the basic infrastructure of the lymph node (LN). Although lymphotox-in-$\beta$ receptor ($LT\betaR$) signaling is known to be critical in FRC maturation, $LT\betaR$ expression on mesenchymal FRC precursors was dispensable in LN development, indicating that other major components are critical for the developmental steps of FRC. Here, we present that YAP/TAZ directs mesenchymal cell commitment of FRC lineage through regulation of the non-canonical $NF-\kappa$ endogenous p52 and RelB to direct mesenchymal cells residing in the adipose tissue upon reaching to the lymph node site. Upon engagement to $LT\betaR$ signaling in the lymph node site, YAP/TAZ was inactivated by the increase in LATS1, 2 for proper maturation. Otherwise, YAP/TAZ activation after $LT\betaR$ engagement caused maturation defects during FRC differentiation. Moreover, hyper-activation of YAP/TAZ in mature FRC leads to myofibroblastic reprogramming of FRC. Thus, I propose that spatiotemporal regulation of YAP/TAZ is critical in regulating the lymph node stroma by directing the fate and reprogramming of FRCs. | - |
