{Abstract}: The modulation of cellular phenotypes within adipose tissue provides a potential means for therapeutic intervention for diabetes. Endogenous interleukin-10 (IL-10) protects against diet-induced insulin resistance. We examined the effects and mechanisms of action of IL-10-treated adipose-derived stromal cells on diabetes-induced insulin resistance and liver gluconeogenesis. We harvested stromal vascular fractions (SVFs) from the adipose tissue of diabetic (Leprdb/db) mice and treated them with IL-10 in vitro. SVFs treated with 10 or 100 ng of IL-10 were injected into the inguinal adipose tissue of Leprdb/db mice. IL-10 treatment suppressed the mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-33, CCL2, TNF-α, and IL-1β. Additionally, it suppressed the protein expression of IL-6, pmTOR, pJNK, and pNF-κB but enhanced Foxp3 mRNA expression in SVFs from diabetic mice. Meanwhile, IL-10 treatment repressed CCL2 and PDGFRα expression in adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) and IL-6 expression in non-ATMs but increased the Foxp3 and IL-10 mRNA expression of ATMs from diabetic mice. Injection of IL-10-treated SVFs decreased the IL-6, IL-33, CCL2, IL-1β, and CCL2 but enhanced the Foxp3 and IL-10 mRNA expression of adipose tissue from Leprdb/db mice. Furthermore, injection of IL-10-treated SVFs increased CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in SVFs and adipose IL-10 levels and suppressed plasma adiponectin levels and DPP4 activity in diabetic mice. Injection of IL-10-treated SVFs decreased hepatic G6PC and PCK1 mRNA expression and increased Akt activation, STAT3 phosphorylation in the liver, and glucose tolerance in diabetic mice. Our data suggest that IL-10 treatment decreases inflammation in adipose SVFs of diabetic mice. Injection of IL-10-treated SVFs into the adipose tissue decreased diabetes-induced gluconeogenesis gene expression, DPP4 activity, and insulin resistance by enhancing Treg cells in diabetic mice. These data suggest that IL-10-treated adipose stromal vascular cells could be a promising therapeutic strategy for diabetes mellitus.
