Learn MoreAutophagy is a homeostatic cellular process involved in the degradation of long-lived/damaged cellular components. The role of autophagy in adipogenesis is well recognized, but its role in mature adipocyte function is largely unknown. We show that the autophagy proteins Atg3 and Atg16L1 are required for proper mitochondrial function in mature adipocytes. In contrast to previous studies, we found that post-developmental ablation of autophagy causes peripheral insulin resistance independently of diet or adiposity. Finally, lack of adipocyte autophagy reveals a - cross talk between fat and liver mediated by lipid peroxide-induced Nrf2 signaling. Our data reveal a - role for autophagy in preventing lipid peroxide formation and their transfer in insulin-sensitive peripheral tissues SOURCE: Sihem Boudina (sihem.boudina@u2m2.utah.edu) - University of Utah
