Identification of Adipose Tissue Dendritic Cells Correlated With Obesity-Associated Insulin-Resistance and Inducing Th17 Responses in Mice and Patients

Abstract: T-cell regulation in adipose tissue provides a link between inflammation and insulin resistance. Because of alterations in adipose tissue T-cell composition in obesity, we aimed to identify the antigen-presenting cells in adipose tissue of obese mice and patients with insulin resistance. Dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells were studied in mice and in two cohorts of obese patients. In lean mice, only CD11c+ DCs were detected in adipose tissue. Adoptive transfer of naive CD4+ T cells in Rag1−/− mice led to a predo… Show more

“…These human data are consistent with work showing obesity-associated AT macrophages support inflammatory T-cell function in mice (36), although this study did not directly test the ability of macrophages from lean mice to support inflammatory T cells as did our work. Importantly, our human monocyte data significantly extend published data showing that dendritic cells promote Th17 function in obese mice (37). Although the monocyte-T-cell coculture data highlight disease-independent effects of monocytes on T cells, it remains possible that elevated monocyte cytokines in T2D (11) influence disease-associated T-cell function.…”

“…T cells infiltrate the AT in the early phase of DIO through chemokines, such as SDF1, which attract them to the AT (31 (33). The number of DCs positively correlates with BMI in men (33).…”

“…A notable exception is the hormone adiponectin, with its anti-inflammatory and insulin sensitising actions (Ouchi et al, 1999;Yokota et al, 2000;Berg et al, 2001;Yamauchi et al, 2001), the production and secretion of which falls as fat mass expands (Arita et al, 1999;Hotta et al, 2000). The establishment of an inflammatory state in adipose tissue in obesity, which includes the recruitment of activated macrophages and other immune cells (Weisberg et al, 2003;Xu et al, 2003;Pond, 2005;Bertola et al, 2012;Brestoff et al, 2015), is widely considered to underpin the development of the diseases associated with the obese state.…”
