Abstract Adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) influence obesity-associated metabolic dysfunction, but the mechanisms by which they do so are not well understood. We show that miR-6236 is a bona fide miRNA that is secreted by ATMs during obesity. Global or myeloid cell-specific deletion of miR-6236 aggravates obesity-associated adipose tissue insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperlipidemia. miR-6236 augments adipocyte insulin sensitivity by inhibiting translation of negative regulators of insulin signaling, including PTEN. The human genome harbors a miR-6236 homolog that is highly expressed in the serum and adipose tissue of obese people. hsa-MIR-6236 expression negatively correlates with hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance, and positively correlates with insulin sensitivity. Together, our findings establish miR-6236 as an ATM-secreted miRNA that potentiates adipocyte insulin signaling and protects against metabolic dysfunction during obesity. |
