21 What is the trigger that instigates adipose tissue dysfunction in obesity?

22 Hypoxia hypothesis Normoxia Hypoxia Relative oxygen deficit Based on Trayhurn & Wood, Br J Nutr, 2004

23 Adipose tissue hypoxia in ob/ob mice po 2 in adipose tissue Hypoxia genes in fat Hypoxia probe Western blot against pimonidazole hydrochloride Immunostaining Ye et al., Am J Physiol, 2007

24 Miniaturized optochemical measurement system for continuous AT po 2 monitoring flow-through-cell Cover O 2 sensor Flow-through-cell microdialysis probe - Measurement range: mmhg - Temperature range: C - Accuracy: ~1 mmhg - Sample media: water, gas phase Čajlaković M, Bizzarri A, Goossens GH et al. Advances in Chemical Sensors, 2012

25 Adipose tissue oxygenation is increased in human obesity, despite lower ATBF 100 P=0.005 Fasting AT po 2 (mmhg) % O 2 3.2% O 2 0 Lean Obese 44.7±5.8 vs. 67.4±3.7 mmhg Goossens GH et al., Circulation, 2011

26 What is the underlying mechanism for increased abdominal sc AT po 2 in human obesity?

27 Determinants and putative effects of AT po 2 Goossens GH, Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care, 2012

28 Acute exposure to extremely low and high oxygen tension evokes AT inflammation 1% 3% 11% 95% Adipose tissue inflammation Human physiological range? Adipose tissue oxygen tension (%) Goossens GH, Front Endocrinol, 2015

29 High physiologically O 2 tension may induce inflammation in human adipocytes 1% 3% 11% 95% Adipose tissue inflammation Human physiological range? Adipose tissue oxygen tension (%) Goossens GH, Front Endocrinol, 2015

30 AT po 2 was positively associated with inflammatory cell markers in human AT Chemoattraction Macrophage infiltration Inflammation 4 r=0.571, P= r=0.525, P= r=0.582, P=0.023 CCL5 mrna (a.u.)

32 Roel Vink What is the effect of diet-induced weight loss on adipose tissue oxygenation?

33 Diet-induced weight loss in humans 15 overweight/obese healthy subjects (18-65 yrs; kg/m 2 ) Dietary intervention 5-week VLCD (500 kcal/d) to achieve >8% weight loss (Modifast), followed by a 4-week weight-maintenance diet Body weight (-10.4%, P<0.001) Body fat % (-6.0%, P<0.001) Fat cell size (-6.2%, P=0.001) Vink R,..., Goossens GH, Int J Obes, 2017 (doi /ijo

34 Diet-induced weight loss decreased AT po 2 and improved insulin sensitivity in humans VLCD-induced weight loss decreased AT po 2 by ~20% (P=0.002), which was accompanied by improved insulin sensitivity (P<0.001) Vink RG et al., Int J Obes, 2017

35 Is adipose tissue oxygenation related to obesity and/or insulin sensitivity?

36 Adipose tissue oxygenation is higher in insulin resistant individuals Similar age, BMI (obese) and body fat percentage (obese) Goossens GH et al., submitted

37 Adipose tissue oxygenation is a major determinant of insulin sensitivity in humans Adipose tissue oxygenation is associated with insulin resistance, independent of age, sex and body fat percentage (standardized β = 0.494; p = 0.005). Goossens GH et al., submitted

38 Is there a difference in adipose tissue oxygenation between upper and lower adipose tissue depots? Max Vogel

39 Oxygen tension is higher in abdominal as compared to femoral sc adipose tissue Adipose tissue oxygen tension (mmhg) Abdominal Femoral Adipose tissue oxygen tension (mmhg) 80 * Abdominal Femoral Adipose tissue blood flow was comparable between depots Vogel M,, Goossens GH, submitted

41 Low physiological O 2 tension decreased inflammatory markers in human adipocytes abdominal femoral Vogel M,, Goossens GH, submitted

42 Mild hypoxia exposure: a novel treatment avenue to improve metabolic health? PARTICIPANTS - Obese insulin resistant men INTERVENTION - Exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (3 x 2h per day; 15% or 21% O 2 ) for 7 days Rens van Meijel Max Vogel MEASUREMENTS - Systemic oxygen saturation - Adipose tissue and skeletal muscle oxygenation - Hepatic and peripheral insulin sensitivity - Energy expenditure and substrate metabolism - Ex vivo skeletal muscle mitochondrial function - Mechanistic cell culture experiments

43 Take home messages Body fat distribution and adipose tissue dysfunction are major determinants of cardiometabolic health in humans Adipose tissue hypoxia is present in rodent models of obesity, but adipose tissue oxygenation seems to be increased in human obesity and related to insulin resistance Adipose tissue oxygenation determines adipocyte functionality Prolonged exposure to low physiological AT po 2 seems to improve human adipocyte function Adipose tissue oxygenation may be a promising target to improve cardiometabolic health in humans
