Lipotoxicity resulting from a high concentration of saturated fatty acids is closely linked to development of insulin resistance, as well as apoptosis in skeletal muscle. CTRP5, an adiponectin paralog, is known to activate AMPK and fatty acid oxidation; however, the effects of CTRP5 on palmitate-induced lipotoxicity in myocytes have not been investigated. We found that globular domain of CTRP5 (gCTRP5) prevented palmitate-induced apoptosis and insulin resistance in myocytes by inhibiting the activation of caspase-3, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and IRS-1 reduction. These beneficial effects of gCTRP5 are mainly attributed to an increase in fatty acid oxidation through phosphorylation of AMPK. These results provide a novel function of CTRP5, which may have preventive and therapeutic potential in management of obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

The current study presents that ascofuranone isolated from a phytopathogenic fungus, Ascochyta viciae, has antitumor activity against various transplantable tumors and a considerable hypolipidemic activity. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a critical role in cellular glucose and lipid homeostasis. We found that ascofuranone improves ER stress-induced insulin resistance by activating AMPK through the LKB1 pathway. In L6 myotube cells, ascofuranone treatment increased the phosphorylation of the Thr-172 residue of the AMPKα subunit and the Ser-79 subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and cellular glucose uptake. Ascofuranone-induced phosphorylation of AMPK and ACC was not increased in A549 cells lacking LKB1. Interestingly, ascofuranone treatment also improved insulin signaling impaired by ER stress in L6 myotube cells. These effects were all reversed by pretreatment with Compound C, an AMPK inhibitor or with adenoviral-mediated dominant-negative AMPKα2. Taken together, these results indicated that ascofuranone-mediated enhancement of glucose uptake and reduction of impaired insulin sensitivity in L6 cells is predominantly accomplished by activating AMPK, thereby mediating beneficial effects in type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. 相似文献

Podocyte insulin sensitivity is critical for glomerular function, and the loss of appropriate insulin signaling leads to alterations and disorders featuring diabetic nephropathy. Energy-sensing pathways, such as AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) and protein deacetylase SIRT1, have been shown to play an important role in insulin resistance. The absence of a stimulating effect of insulin on glucose uptake into podocytes after exposure to hyperglycemic conditions has been demonstrated to be related to a decreased level and activity of SIRT1 protein, leading to reduced AMPK phosphorylation.The present work was undertaken to investigate metformin's ability to restore the insulin responsiveness of podocytes by regulating SIRT1 and AMPK activities.Primary rat podocytes cultured with standard or high glucose concentrations for 5 days were transfected with siRNAs targeting SIRT1, AMPKα1, or AMPKα2. SIRT1 activity was measured by a fluorometric method. Insulin-stimulated changes in glucose uptake were used to detect insulin resistance. Podocyte permeability was measured by a transmembrane albumin flux assay to examine podocytes functioning.Our results demonstrated that metformin activated SIRT1 and AMPK, prevented hyperglycemia-induced reduction of SIRT1 protein levels, ameliorated glucose uptake into podocytes, and decreased glomerular filtration barrier permeability. Furthermore, metformin activated AMPK in a SIRT1-independent manner, as the increase in AMPK phosphorylation after metformin treatment was not affected by SIRT1 downregulation. Therefore, the potentiating effect of metformin on insulin-resistant podocytes seemed to be dependent on AMPK, as well as SIRT1 activity, establishing multilateral effects of metformin action. 相似文献

Adenosine among other factors is known to regulate the growth and function of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). Its action is mediated by cell-surface receptors linked to a variety of signaling systems. The goal of present work was to examine the effects of glucose and insulin on adenosine receptors (ARs) mRNA and protein level in primary culture of rat CFs by means of real-time PCR and Western blot. Elevated glucose level increased the expression of A(1)-AR, A(2A)-AR, decreased the expression of A(3)-AR, and had no effect on A(2B)-AR expression. On the other hand insulin suppressed the expression of A(1)-AR, and A(2B)-AR, and had no effect on A(2A)-AR and A(3)-AR expression. Our measurements showed that accumulation of cAMP in response to ARs agonists correlated well with the changes in receptors expression level. These results indicate that changes in glucose and insulin level independently and differentially regulate the ARs expression and functional state in CFs. 相似文献

Recently it was demonstrated that the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate (BOH) inhibits insulin-mediated glucose transport in isolated oxidative muscle, which was associated with decreased phosphorylation of Akt/protein kinase B. The purpose of the present study was to determine if activation of AMP-dependent protein kinase by the pharmacological activator AICAR could reverse the insulin resistance induced by BOH. Isolated mouse soleus muscle was incubated in vitro in the absence or presence of 5 mM BOH for ∼20 h. Following prolonged incubation, insulin increased 2-deoxyglucose glucose (2-DG) uptake 3-fold, but in the presence of BOH most of the insulin response was lost (only ∼30% remained). Addition of 2 mM AICAR during the last 2 h of prolonged incubation increased the insulin response in the presence of BOH to ∼80% of the normal insulin effect on 2-DG uptake. The AICAR-mediated reversal of the insulin resistance was not associated with a restoration of the insulin effect on Akt/protein kinase B phosphorylation. However, AICAR enhanced the insulin-induced phosphorylation of the Akt substrate, AS160. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that AICAR reverses the negative effect of BOH on insulin-mediated glucose uptake and this is attributed to activation of a late step in insulin signaling. 相似文献

Insulin resistance (IR) in childhood has importance to the understanding and prevention of the growing epidemic of insulin
resistance syndrome (IRS) in adults with attendant obesity, type 2 diabetes (T2DM), atherosclerotic diseases, hypertension,
gout, non-alcoholic, steato-hepatitis (NASH), gall bladder disease, nephropathy, polycystic ovarian disease (PCOS), infertility
and premature senility. The severity of IR and its’ complications in children unfortunately and usually progresses in their
pubertal transition to adulthood; affected young children are more likely than adults to have underlying causal monogenic
disorders; the sequence of natural history and events give insights into disease pathogeneses, and optimal life style choices
that last are best made during the early formative years. Some features of IR in children discussed herein are: a strong tendency
to low birth weight for gestational age, adverse effects of adrenarche and therapeutic steroid therapy, predisposition to
premature pubarche, acanthosis nigricans, tall stature despite pituitary GH suppression, allergic diathesis, hyperandrogenism
and PCOS, dyslipidemia and fatty liver disease, and diagnosis by clinical and biochemical markers of IR including insulin
regulated hepatic hormonal binding proteins such as IGFBP-1. The national preoccupation with the “metabolic syndrome” T2DM
and obesity, should be appropriately directed to an improved understanding of IR in children and their management, if the
looming health crisis in affected adults is to be seriously addressed. The nation is facing its’ first generation of children
who will be less healthy and die younger than the previous generation (Marks (2005) Presentation to the American Association
of Diabetes Educators 32nd Annual Meeting and Exhibition, August 10–13, Washington, DC). 相似文献

Ghrelin is a stomach hormone, secreted into the bloodstream, that initiates food intake by activating NPY/AgRP neurons in the hypothalamic acruate nucleus. This review focuses on recent evidence that details the mechanisms through which ghrelin activate receptors on NPY neurons and downstream signaling within NPY neurons. The downstream signaling involves a novel CaMKK-AMPK-CPT1-UCP2 pathway that enhances mitochondrial efficiency and buffers reactive oxygen species in order to maintain an appropriate firing response in NPY. Recent evidence that shows metabolic status affects ghrelin signaling in NPY is also described. In particular, ghrelin does not activate NPY neurons in diet-induced obese mice and ghrelin does not increase food intake. The potential mechanisms and implications of ghrelin resistance are discussed. 相似文献

Adrenomedullin (ADM) has been recognized as a multipotent multifunctional peptide. To explore the pathophysiological roles of ADM in insulin resistance (IR), we studied the changes in ADM mRNA level in the myocardium and vessels and the effect of ADM supplementation on rats with IR induced by fructose feeding. Rats were fed 4% fructose in drinking water for 8 weeks, and ADM was administered subcutaneously in pure water through an Alzet Mini-osmotic Pump at 300 ng/kg/h for the last 4 weeks. Compared with controls, rats with IR showed increased levels of fasting blood sugar and serum insulin, by 95% and 67%, respectively (all P < 0.01), and glycogen synthesis and glucose transport activity of the soleus decreased by 54% and 55% (all P < 0.01). mRNA level and content of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in myocardial were all increased significantly. Fructose-fed rats showed increased immunoreactive-ADM content in plasma by 110% and in myocardia by 55% and increased mRNA level in myocardia and vessels (all P < 0.01). ADM administration ameliorated the induced IR and myocardial hypertrophy. The glycogen synthesis and glucose transport activity of the soleus muscle increased by 41% (P < 0.01) and 32% (P < 0.05). ADM therapy attenuated myocardial and soleus lipid peroxidation injury and enhanced the antioxidant ability. Our results showed upregulation of endogenous ADM during fructose-induced IR and the protective effect of ADM on fructose-induced IR and concomitant cardiovascular hypertrophy probably by its antioxidant effect, which suggests that ADM could be an endogenous protective factor in IR. 相似文献

The rapid increase of obese population in the United States has made obesity into epidemic proportion. Obesity is a strong risk factor for metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and other diseases. Compelling evidence has demonstrated that increased adipose tissue mass is not only the consequence of obesity, but also plays a central role in the development of obesity-associated diseases. Recent studies have profoundly changed the concept of adipose tissue from being an energy depot to an active endocrine organ. The development of obesity alters adipocyte-derived hormones or cytokines expression, which provide a link between obesity and impaired insulin sensitivity and metabolic defects in other tissues. This review summarizes the current knowledge on how major adipose-derived hormones or adipocytokines influence insulin sensitivity. 相似文献

The accumulation of fat in tissues not suited for lipid storage has deleterious consequences on organ function, leading to cellular damage that underlies diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. To combat these lipotoxic events, several therapeutics improve insulin sensitivity and/or ameliorate features of metabolic disease by limiting the inappropriate deposition of fat in peripheral tissues (i.e. thiazolidinediones, metformin, and statins). Recent advances in genomics and lipidomics have accelerated progress towards understanding the pathogenic events associated with the excessive production, underutilization, or inefficient storage of fat. Herein we review studies applying pharmacological or genetic strategies to manipulate the expression or activity of enzymes controlling lipid deposition, in order to gain a clearer understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which fatty acids contribute to metabolic disease. 相似文献

We have examined the expression of mRNA for several P2Y nucleotide receptors by northern blot analysis in purified type 1 cerebellar astrocyte cultures. These results suggest that different P2Y subtypes could be responsible for ATP metabotropic calcium responses in single type 1 astrocytes. To identify these subtypes we have studied the pharmacological profile of ATP calcium responses using fura-2 microfluorimetry. All tested astrocytes responded to ATP and UTP stimulations evoking similar calcium transients. Most astrocytes also responded to 2-methylthioATP and ADP challenges. The agonist potency order was 2-methylthioATP > ADP > ATP = UTP. Cross-desensitization experiments carried out with ATP, UTP, and 2-methylthioATP showed that 2-methylthioATP and UTP interact with different receptors, P2Y(1) and P2Y(2) or P2Y(4). In a subpopulation of type 1 astrocytes, ATP prestimulation did not block UTP responses, and UDP elicited clear intracellular Ca(2+) concentration responses at very low concentrations. 2-MethylthioATP and UTP calcium responses exhibited different sensitivity to pertussis toxin and different inhibition patterns in response to P2 antagonists. The P2Y(1)-specific antagonist N:(6)-methyl-2'-deoxyadenosine 3', 5'-bisphosphate (MRS 2179) specifically blocked the 2-methylthio-ATP responses. We can conclude that all single astrocytes coexpressed at least two types of P2Y metabotropic receptors: P2Y(1) and either P2Y(2) or P2Y(4) receptors. Moreover, 30-40% of astrocytes also coexpressed specific pyrimidine receptors of the P2Y(6) subtype, highly selective for UDP coupled to pertussis-toxin insensitive G protein. 相似文献

Aims
The search for natural agents that minimize obesity-associated disorders is receiving special attention. In this regard, the present study aimed to evaluate the prophylactic effect of Chlorella vulgaris (CV) on body weight, lipid profile, blood glucose and insulin signaling in liver, skeletal muscle and adipose tissue of diet-induced obese mice.Main methods
Balb/C mice were fed either with standard rodent chow diet or high-fat diet (HFD) and received concomitant treatment with CV for 12 consecutive weeks. Triglyceride, free fatty acid, total cholesterol and fractions of cholesterol were measured using commercial assay. Insulin and leptin levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Insulin and glucose tolerance tests were performed. The expression and phosphorylation of IRβ, IRS-1 and Akt were determined by Western blot analyses.Key findings
Herein we demonstrate for the first time in the literature that prevention by CV of high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance in obese mice, as shown by increased glucose and insulin tolerance, is in part due to the improvement in the insulin signaling pathway at its main target tissues, by increasing the phosphorylation levels of proteins such as IR, IRS-1 and Akt. In parallel, the lower phosphorylation levels of IRS-1ser307 were observed in obese mice. We also found that CV administration prevents high-fat diet-induced dyslipidemia by reducing triglyceride, cholesterol and free fatty acid levels.Significance
We propose that the modulatory effect of CV treatment preventing the deleterious effects induced by high-fat diet is a good indicator for its use as a prophylactic–therapeutic agent against obesity-related complications. 相似文献20.
In the current study we investigated the effect of mu-opioid receptor activation on insulin sensitivity. In obese Zucker rats, an intravenous injection of loperamide (18 microg/kg, three times daily for 3 days) decreased plasma glucose levels and the glucose-insulin index. Both effects of loperamide were subsequently inhibited by the administration of 10 microg/kg of naloxone or 10 microg/kg of naloxonazine, doses sufficient to block mu-opioid receptors. Other metabolic defects characteristic of obese Zucker rats, such as defects in insulin signaling, the decreased expression of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase), and the glucose transporter subtype 4 (GLUT 4), and the reduction of phosphorylation in IRS-1 or Akt serine, were also studied. These defects were all reversed by loperamide treatment in a dose which overcame mu-opioid receptor blockade. Moreover, loss of tolbutamide-induced plasma glucose lowering action (10 mg/kg) in wild-type mice given a fructose-rich diet was markedly delayed by repeated treatment with loperamide; however, this delay induced by loperamide did not occur in mu-opioid receptor knockout mice. These results indicate an important role of peripheral mu-opioid receptors in the loperamide-induced improvement of insulin sensitivity. Our results suggest that activation of peripheral mu-opioid receptors can ameliorate insulin resistance in animals, and provide a new target for therapy of insulin resistance. 相似文献
