Absence of ANGPTL4 in adipose tissue improves glucose tolerance and attenuates atherogenesis
Abstract
Alterations in ectopic lipid deposition and circulating lipids are major risk factors for developing cardiometabolic diseases. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4), a protein that inhibits lipoprotein lipase (LPL), controls fatty acid (FA) uptake in adipose and oxidative tissues and regulates circulating triacylglycerol-rich (TAG-rich) lipoproteins. Unfortunately, global depletion of ANGPTL4 results in severe metabolic abnormalities, inflammation, and fibrosis when mice are fed a high-fat diet (HFD), limiting our understanding of the contribution of ANGPTL4 in metabolic disorders. Here, we demonstrate that genetic ablation of ANGPTL4 in adipose tissue (AT) results in enhanced LPL activity, rapid clearance of circulating TAGs, increased AT lipolysis and FA oxidation, and decreased FA synthesis in AT. Most importantly, we found that absence of ANGPTL4 in AT prevents excessive ectopic lipid deposition in the liver and muscle, reducing novel PKC (nPKC) membrane translocation and enhancing insulin signaling. As a result, we observed a remarkable improvement in glucose tolerance in short-term HFD-fed AT-specific Angptl4 -KO mice. Finally, lack of ANGPTL4 in AT enhances the clearance of proatherogenic lipoproteins, attenuates inflammation, and reduces atherosclerosis. Together, these findings uncovered an essential role of AT ANGPTL4 in regulating peripheral lipid deposition, influencing whole-body lipid and glucose metabolism and the progression of atherosclerosis.

Mice without adipose ANGPTL4 had increased adipose triglyceride deposition and improved glucose tolerance compared with wild-type mice.
“Two independent studies found that when high-fat diet was fed to mice without adipose ANGPTL4, these mice had increased adipose triglyceride deposition and improved glucose tolerance compared with wild-type mice (31, 32).”

Targeting ANGPTL4 could potentially increase adiposity and increase glucose tolerance, as it does in mice.
“For example, targeting ANGPTL4 could potentially increase adiposity and increase glucose tolerance, as it does in mice (31–33, 84)”

The effect of increased adipose triglyceride deposition and improved glucose tolerance in mice without adipose ANGPTL4 was lost with chronic (5+ months) high-fat feeding.
“Interestingly, both studies found that this effect was lost with chronic (5+ mo) of high-fat feeding (31, 32).”

In the absence of ANGPTL4, LPL activity and TG uptake in adipose increases under fasting conditions.
“Studies with knockout mice confirm that in the absence of ANGPTL4, LPL activity and TG uptake in adipose increases under fasting conditions (31, 32, 63).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
