Temporal and spatial metabolite dynamics impart control in adipogenesis

Kristin Eckel-Mahan. J Cell Biol. .

Abstract

The process of adipogenesis is critical for forming new, healthy adipocytes that are capable of storing lipids. In this issue, Sánchez-Ramírez and Ung et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202111137) reveal a novel role for the metabolite nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in controlling differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells into adipocytes.

Figure 1.
NAD+ metabolism imparts temporal regulation in the process of adipogenic differentiation. NAD+ plays an inhibitory role in the process of differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells to lipid-storing adipocytes at early stages of adipogenesis, though the NAD+-regulated enzyme SIRT1 plays a minimal effect at this stage. NAD+ both induces a proapoptotic gene signature at early-stage differentiation and inhibits the shift from glycolytic to oxidative metabolism.
