Thy1 (CD90) expression is regulated by DNA methylation during adipogenesis

Abstract: The obesity epidemic is developing into the most costly health problem facing the world. Obesity, characterized by excessive adipogenesis and enlarged adipocytes, promotes morbidities, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Regulation of adipogenesis is critical to our understanding of how fat cell formation causes obesity and associated health problems. Thy1 (also called CD90), a widely used stem cell marker, blocks adipogenesis and reduces lipid accumulation. Thy1‐knockout mice are prone to di… Show more

“…The expression of CD90 gradually decreases during adipogenesis, and mature adipocytes express almost no CD90. The reduction of CD90 expression by siRNA treatment in MSCs has been shown to enhance MSC adipogenic differentiation [47], whereas methylation inhibitor treatment to maintain CD90 expression during adipogenic differentiation reduces adipocyte formation [48]. This finding is consistent with the characteristics presented by our NRLM-MSCs from both clinical patients and commercial MSCs.…”

“…However, different from the inhibitory effect of ectopic CD90 on the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells, which influenced the whole process of adipogenic differentiation [69], we revealed an unrecognized role of CD90 in promoting mitotic clonal expansion, which influenced the early phase of adipogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Notably, although CD90 on S-ADSCs contributed to their proliferation and mitotic clonal expansion, a gradual loss of CD90 was observed during the process of adipogenic differentiation, which was consistent with the change of CD90 expression in differentiating 3T3-L1 cells [69, 70]. These data indicate that CD90 may play essential roles in maintaining the stemness of ADSCs, which determines their capacities for self-renewal and initiation of adipogenic differentiation in response to metabolic demands.…”

“…A different study which used shRNAs to silence Thy-1 expression in MSCs showed increased adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, indicating that Thy-1 functions as a differentiation obstacle ( Moraes, Sibov et al, 2016 ). Thy-1 expression is itself decreased during adipogenesis via epigenetic silencing ( Flores, Woeller et al, 2019 ). Thy-1 inhibits adipogenesis in preadipocytes via inhibition of Fyn and PPARγ ( Woeller, O'Loughlin et al, 2015 ).…”
