ABSTRACT
Recently, emerging evidence has suggested that obesity become a prevalent health threat worldwide. Reportedly, CTRP9 can ameliorate HFD induced obesity. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the role of CTRP9 in obesity remains elusive. In this study, we reported its major function in the regulation of lipolysis. First, we found that the expression of CTRP9 was decreased in mature adipocytes and white adipose tissue of obese mice. Then, we showed that overexpression adipose tissue CTRP9 alleviated diet-induced obesity and adipocytes hypertrophy, improved glucose intolerance and raised energy expenditure. Moreover, CTRP9 increased the lipolysis in vitro and vivo. Additionally, we determined that CTRP9 enhanced autophagy flux in adipocytes. Intriguingly, knock down Beclin1 by SiRNA abolished the effect of CTRP9 on lipolysis. Mechanically, CTRP9 enhanced the expression of SNX26. We demonstrated that SNX26 was a component of the ATG14L-Beclin1-VPS34 complex and enhanced the assembly of the autophagy-initiation complex. Collectively, our results suggested that CTRP9 alleviated diet induced obesity through enhancing lipolysis mediated by autophagy-initiation complex formation.
