Insufficient adipose lipid storage is asso- ciated with many pathological conditions including hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. In this study, we observed the overexpression of SUMO-specific protease 2 (Senp2) in adipose tissues during obesity. Adipocyte 5enp2 deficiency resulted in less adipose lipid storage accompanied by an ectopic fat accumulation and insulin resistance under high-fat diet feeding. We further found that SET domain bifurcated 1 (Setdbl) was a SUMOylated protein and that SUMOylation promoted Setdbl occupancy on the promoter locus of Pparg and Cebpa genes to suppress their expressions by H3Kgme3. Senp2 could suppress Setdbl function by de-SUMOylation. In adipocyte 5enp2-deficiency mice, accumulation of the SUMOylated Setdbl suppressed the expression of Pparg and Cebpo genes as welt as lipid metabolism-related target genes, which would decrease the ability of lipid storage in adipocytes. These results revealed the crucial role of Senp2-Setdbl axis in controlling adipose lipid storage.展开更多
