Menopause is associated with bone loss and enhanced visceral adiposity. We have shown previously that a polyclonal antibody (Ab) to the β-subunit of the pituitary hormone Fsh increases bone mass in mice. Here, we report that this Ab sharply reduces adipose tissue in wild type mice, phenocopying genetic Fshr haploinsufficiency. The Ab also causes profound beiging, increases cellular mitochondrial density, activates brown adipose tissue, and enhances thermogenesis. These actions result from the specific binding of Ab to Fshβ to block its action. Our studies uncover novel opportunities for co-treating obesity and osteoporosis.
