RT Journal Article T1 Chaperone-mediated autophagy regulates adipocyte differentiation A1 Macho González, Adrián A1 Kaushik, Susmita A1 Juste, Yves A1 Lindenau, Kristen A1 Dong, Suxhian A1 Santiago-Fernández, Olaya A1 McCabe, Mericka A1 Singh, Rajat A1 Gavathiotis, Evris A1 Cuervo, Ana María AB Adipogenesis is a tightly orchestrated multistep process wherein preadipocytes differentiate into adipocytes. The most studied aspect of adipogenesis is its transcriptional regulation through timely expression and silencing of a vast number of genes. However, whether turnover of key regulatory proteins per se controls adipogenesis remains largely understudied. Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a selective form of lysosomal protein degradation that, in response to diverse cues, remodels the proteome for regulatory purposes. We report here the activation of CMA during adipocyte differentiation and show that CMA regulates adipogenesis at different steps through timely degradation of key regulatory signaling proteins and transcription factors that dictate proliferation, energetic adaptation, and signaling changes required for adipogenesis.
