Abstract
Sympathetic innervation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) controls mammalian adaptative thermogenesis. However, the cellular and molecular underpinnings contributing to BAT innervation remain poorly defined. Here, we show that smooth muscle cells (SMCs) support BAT growth, lipid utilization, and thermogenic plasticity. Moreover, we find that BAT SMCs express and control the bioavailability of Cxcl12. SMC deletion of Cxcl12 fosters brown adipocyte lipid accumulation, reduces energy expenditure, and increases susceptibility to diet-induced metabolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, we find that Cxcl12 stimulates CD301+ macrophage recruitment and supports sympathetic neuronal maintenance. Administering recombinant Cxcl12 to obese mice or leptin-deficient (Ob/Ob) mice is sufficient to boost macrophage presence and drive sympathetic innervation to restore BAT morphology and thermogenic responses. Altogether, our data reveal an SMC chemokine-dependent pathway linking immunological infiltration and sympathetic innervation as a rheostat for BAT maintenance and thermogenesis.

Abstract
The cellular complexity of the endochondral bone underlies its essential and pleiotropic roles during organismal life. While the adult bone has received significant attention, we still lack a deep understanding of the perinatal bone cellulome. Here, we have profiled the full composition of the murine endochondral bone at the single-cell level during the transition from fetal to newborn life and in comparison with the adult tissue, with particular emphasis on the mesenchymal compartment. The perinatal bone contains different fibroblastic clusters with blastema-like characteristics in organizing and supporting skeletogenesis, angiogenesis and hematopoiesis. Our data also suggest dynamic inter- and intra-compartment interactions, as well as a bone marrow milieu that seems prone to anti-inflammation, which we hypothesize is necessary to ensure the proper program of lymphopoiesis and the establishment of central and peripheral tolerance in early life. Our study provides an integrative roadmap for the future design of genetic and cellular functional assays to validate cellular interactions and lineage relationships within the perinatal bone.
