Abstract (original English)

Some adipocytes are produced from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells. In vitro studies previously indicated that these bone marrow-derived adipocytes (BMDAs) were generated from adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) that lose their hematopoietic markers and acquire mesenchymal markers prior to terminal adipogenic differentiation. Here we interrogated whether this hematopoietic-to-mesenchymal transition drives BMDA production In vitro . We generated transgenic mice in which the lysozyme gene promoter (LysM) indelibly labeled ATM with green fluorescent protein (GFP). We discovered that adipose stroma contained a population of LysM-positive myeloid cells that simultaneously expressed hematopoietic/myeloid markers (CD45 and CD11b), and mesenchymal markers (CD29, PDGFRa and Sca-1) typically found on conventional adipocyte progenitors. These cells were capable of adipogenic differentiation In vitro and In vitro , while other stromal populations deficient in PDGFRa and Sca-1 were non-adipogenic. BMDAs and conventional adipocytes expressed common fat cell markers but exhibited little or no expression of hematopoietic and mesenchymal progenitor cell markers. The data indicate that BMDAs are produced from ATM simultaneously expressing hematopoietic and mesenchymal markers rather than via a stepwise hematopoietic-to-mesenchymal transition. Because BMDA production is stimulated by high fat fee
