Administration of L-thyroxine (T4) to thyroidectomized Calotes versicolor significantly increased the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) (liver and kidney), the concentrations of blood glucose and total protein (liver and kidney), and decreased hepatic cholesterol when compared to thyroidectomized lizards. Propranolol injections in thyroidectomized lizards increased the cholesterol concentration and did not change the other parameters. The activity of G-6-Pase and blood glucose content was stimulated, whereas the total protein and cholesterol contents were decreased after alloxan treatment. Administration of T4 to thyroidectomized animals pretreated with propranolol or alloxan significantly elevated the activity of G-6-Pase, the concentrations of blood glucose, and total protein, and reduced hepatic cholesterol level when compared to drug-treated lizards. From the results, it is evident that thyroid hormone has an independent stimulatory influence on intermediary metabolism in C. versicolor irrespective of the involvement of adrenaline or insulin.  相似文献

Annona squamosa (Custard apple) seeds are generally thrown away as waste materials. The extract of these seeds was evaluated for its possible ameliorative effect in the regulation of hyperthyroidism in mouse model. Serum triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) concentrations, hepatic glucose-6-phospatase (G-6-Pase) and 5′-mono-deiodinase (5′DI) activity were considered as the end parameters of thyroid function. Simultaneously hepatic lipid peroxidation (LPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities were investigated to observe its hepatotoxic effect, if any.

L-T4 administration (0.5 mg/kg/d for 12 days, i.p.) increased the levels of serum T3 and T4, activity of hepatic G-6-Pase, 5′DI and LPO with a parallel decrease in SOD and CAT activities. However, simultaneous administration of the Annona seed extract (200 mg/kg) or quercetin (10 mg/kg) to T4-induced hyperthyroid animals for 10 days, reversed all these effects indicating their potential in the regulation of hyperthyroidism. Further, the seed extract did not increase, but decreased the hepatic LPO suggesting its safe and antiperoxidative nature. Quercetin also decreased hepatic LPO. When relative efficacy was compared with that of propyl thiouracil (PTU), a standard antithyroidic drug, experimental seed extract appeared to be more effective. Phytochemical analyses including HPLC revealed the presence of quercetin in the seed extract and the results on the effects of quercetin suggested the involvement of this phytochemical in the mediation of antithyroidal activity of Annona squamosa seed extract.  相似文献

An investigation was made to evaluate the role of Convolvulus pluricaulis root extract in the regulation of hyperthyroidism in female mice. Its possible site of action was also studied. L-Thyroxine treatment for 30 days increased serum concentrations of thyroxine (T4) and triodothyronine (T3). The activity of hepatic 5'-monodeiodinase (5'-DI) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) was also enhanced. On the other hand, administration of the plant extract either alone or with L-T4, decreased serum T3 concentration and the activity of hepatic 5'-DI and G-6-phase, without marked alteration in hepatic lipid peroxidation, indicating the possible regulation of hyperthyroidism by the plant extract. It appears that the action of the plant extract on thyroid function is primarily mediated through the inhibition of 5'-DI enzyme activity.  相似文献

This study was conducted to test the hypothesis of the activation of glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) in situations where the liver is supposed to sustain high glucose supply, such as during the counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia was induced by insulin infusion in anesthetized rats. Despite hyperinsulinemia, endogenous glucose production (EGP), assessed by [3-(3)H]glucose tracer dilution, was paradoxically not suppressed in hypoglycemic rats. G-6-Pase activity, assayed in a freeze-clamped liver lobe, was increased by 30% in hypoglycemia (P < 0.01 vs. saline-infused controls). Infusion of epinephrine (1 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1)) in normal rats induced a dramatic 80% increase in EGP and a 60% increase in G-6-Pase activity. In contrast, infusion of dexamethasone had no effect on these parameters. Similar insulin-induced hypoglycemia experiments performed in adrenalectomized rats did not induce any stimulation of G-6-Pase. Infusion of epinephrine in adrenalectomized rats restored a stimulation of G-6-Pase similar to that triggered by hypoglycemia in normal rats. These results strongly suggest that specific activatory mechanisms of G-6-Pase take place and contribute to EGP in situations where the latter is supposed to be sustained.  相似文献

The combined effects of Trigonella foenum-graecum and Allium sativum extracts were evaluated for their ameliorative potential in the L-thyroxine-induced hyperthyroidic rat model to contribute to an understanding of interaction between the two extracts. The investigation was carried out using two different doses. A comparison was made with the response of individual plant extracts at the previously studied effective dose in adult Wistar rats rendered hyperthyroidic by daily injections of L-thyroxine (300 microg/kg body wt., s.c.). Propylthiouracil (PTU), an antithyroid drug, was used as a reference compound. Alterations in serum triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), glucose, hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) and oxygen consumption were studied as end parameters. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) activities, lipid peroxidation (LPO) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were examined to reveal any toxic effects of the drugs. The combined effects of Trigonella and Allium at 200 and 500 mg/kg body wt. respectively, were equipotent as compared to the individual extracts in lowering the serum concentrations of T3 and T4 in hyperthyroidic rats. Our findings reveal that some plant extracts in combination may not always prove to be synergistic. It is therefore suggested that Trigonella foenum-graecum and Allium sativum extracts may be used individually and not together in the regulation of hyperthyroidism.  相似文献

High-fat (HFD) and high-sucrose diets (HSD) reduce insulin suppression of glucose production in vivo, increase the capacity for gluconeogenesis in vitro, and increase glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity in whole cell homogenates. The present study examined the effects of HSD and HFD on in vivo gluconeogenesis, the catalytic and glucose-6-phosphate translocase subunits of G-6-Pase, glucokinase (GK) translocation, and glucose cycling. Rats were fed a high-starch control diet (STD; 68% cornstarch), HSD (68% sucrose), or HFD (45% fat) for 7-13 days. The ratio of 3H in C6:C2 of glucose after 3H2O injection into 6- to 8-h-fasted rats was significantly increased in HSD (0.68 +/- 0.07) and HFD (0.71 +/- 0.08) vs. STD (0.40 +/- 0.10). G-6-Pase activity was significantly higher in HSD and HFD vs. STD in both intact and disrupted liver microsomes. HSD and HFD significantly increased the amount of the p36 catalytic subunit protein, whereas the p46 glucose-6-phosphate translocase protein was increased in HSD only. Despite increased nonglycerol gluconeogenesis and increased G-6-Pase, basal glucose and insulin levels as well as glucose production were not significantly different among groups. Hepatocyte cell suspensions were used to ascertain whether diet-induced adaptations in glucose phosphorylation and GK might serve to compensate for upregulation of G-6-Pase. Tracer-estimated glucose phosphorylation and glucose cycling (glucose <--> glucose 6-phosphate) were significantly higher in cells isolated from HSD only. After incubation with either 5 or 20 mM glucose and no insulin, GK activity (nmol. mg protein(-1). min(-1)) in digitonin-treated eluates (translocated GK) was significantly higher in HSD (32 +/- 4 and 146 +/- 6) vs. HFD (4 +/- 1 and 83 +/- 10) and STD (9 +/- 2 and 87 +/- 9). Thus short-term, chronic exposure to HSD and HFD increase in vivo gluconeogenesis and the G-6-Pase catalytic subunit. Exposure to HSD diet also leads to adaptations in glucose phosphorylation and GK translocation.  相似文献

The mechanisms responsible for the glycemic changes associated with endotoxic shock are not fully understood, but are known to involve the ability of the liver to produce glucose. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether endotoxin (LPS) influences the expression and activity of glucose-6-phosphatase (Glu-6-Pase) during the early hyperglycemic phase and the later hypoglycemic phase. Rats were injected with a relatively large dose of LPS (20 mg/kg) or saline (control), and sacrificed at 1 or 5 h post-injection. Both the plasma glucose concentration and glucose production were elevated 1 h post-LPS (2-fold) and both decreased at 5 h postinjection (50%). Compared to time-matched control values, hepatic glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate levels were significantly decreased at both 1 and 5 h. Hepatic Glu-6-Pase activity and mRNA levels were moderately increased, 1 h after injection of LPS. At 5 h, an 88% decrease in mRNA abundance for Glu-6-Pase was associated with a 30% decrease in activity of this enzyme. Plasma insulin concentrations were not different 1 h after LPS and were elevated 2-fold from control values at 5 h. Circulating levels of glucagon and corticosterone were elevated at both time points following LPS. Our data indicate that the LPS-induced hypoglycemia and reduction in hepatic glucose production were accompanied by a depression in Glu-6-Pase activity and gene expression.  相似文献

Previous work has established the marked potentiation of CCl4 hepatoxicity by prior exposure to chlordecone (CD). This study was conducted to determine if prior exposure to CD results in enhancement of CCl4-induced destruction of the hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxygenase (MFO) system. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received a single oral dose of CD (10 mg/kg) or corn oil vehicle alone (1 ml/kg) 24 hr prior to a single ip injection of CCl4 (0-100 microliter/kg). Mirex (M; 10 mg/kg) and phenobarbital (PB; 80 mg/kg/day for two days) were used as negative and positive controls respectively for the potentiation of CCl4 hepatotoxicity. Hepatotoxicity was evaluated 24 hrs after CCl4 administration by elevations of three serum enzymes (GPT, GOT, and ICD). The key hepatic microsomal MFO parameters measured were microsomal protein, cytochrome P-450 content, glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase), and aminopyrine demethylase (APD). As previously demonstrated using a subchronic dietary pretreatment protocol, CD potentiated CCl4 hepatotoxicity over a range of CCl4 doses to a greater extent than PB or M, as judged by elevations in serum enzymes. PB caused the greatest increase in total P-450 content and the greatest increase in CCl4-mediated destruction of microsomal protein and APD activity. M caused the least destruction of total hepatic cytochrome P-450, despite the same level of cytochrome P-450 as in the PB group. CD treatment caused the greatest decrease in G-6-Pase activity in comparison to PB or M pretreatments and a similar degree of P-450 destruction as observed with the PB group. These findings suggest that in general, CCl4-induced destruction of hepatic MFO parameters measured in this study is disproportional to the known degree of potentiated hepatotoxicity by the pretreatments and does not accurately reflect the potentiation of CCl4 hepatotoxicity by CD.  相似文献

Fetal exposure to synthetic glucocorticoids in sheep results in increased fetal hepatic 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1) and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) protein levels and insulin resistance in postnatal life. The aim was to determine whether these changes persisted to adulthood and whether alterations in mediators of hepatic glucocorticoid and glucose regulation contributed to changes in metabolism. Pregnant ewes or their fetuses received either repeated intramuscular saline (MS, FS) or betamethasone injections (0.5 mg/kg; M4, F4) at 104, 111, 118, and 124 days of gestation (dG), or a single betamethasone injection at 104 dG followed by saline at 111, 118, and 124 dG (M1, F1). Offspring were catheterized at 2 and 3 yr of age and given an intravenous glucose challenge (0.5 mg/kg). Hepatic tissue was collected at 3.5 yr. At 2 yr of age, basal plasma insulin was elevated in M4 offspring and at 3 yr of age was elevated in F4 offspring. Basal insulin-to-glucose ratio was significantly elevated in M4 offspring at 2 yr of age and elevated in M1, M4, and F4 offspring at 3 yr of age. All betamethasone treatments resulted in significant increases in hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity. Hepatic glucocorticoid receptor protein levels were not altered in M1 and M4 offspring but were increased in F1 and F4 offspring. Hepatic CBG protein levels were lower in F4 but not F1 offspring and were unchanged from control in M1 and M4 offspring. Prenatal betamethasone exposure results in elevated hepatic G-6-Pase activity in adulthood and may contribute to long-term changes in metabolism.  相似文献

The regulation of glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) catalytic subunit and glucose 6-phosphate (G-6-P) transporter gene expression by insulin in conscious dogs in vivo and in tissue culture cells in situ were compared. In pancreatic-clamped, euglycemic conscious dogs, a 5-h period of hypoinsulinemia led to a marked increase in hepatic G-6-Pase catalytic subunit mRNA; however, G-6-P transporter mRNA was unchanged. In contrast, a 5-h period of hyperinsulinemia resulted in a suppression of both G-6-Pase catalytic subunit and G-6-P transporter gene expression. Similarly, insulin suppressed G-6-Pase catalytic subunit and G-6-P transporter gene expression in H4IIE hepatoma cells. However, the magnitude of the insulin effect was much greater on G-6-Pase catalytic subunit gene expression and was manifested more rapidly. Furthermore, cAMP stimulated G-6-Pase catalytic subunit expression in H4IIE cells and in primary hepatocytes but had no effect on G-6-P transporter expression. These results suggest that the relative control strengths of the G-6-Pase catalytic subunit and G-6-P transporter in the G-6-Pase reaction are likely to vary depending on the in vivo environment.  相似文献

The prevalence of obesity is increasing globally, and obesity is a major risk factor for metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. Previously, we reported that oral administration of homobrassinolide (HB) to healthy rats triggered a selective anabolic response that was associated with lower blood glucose. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of HB administration on glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, body composition, and gluconeogenic gene expression profiles in liver of C57BL/6J high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Acute oral administration of 50-300 mg/kg HB to obese mice resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in fasting blood glucose within 3 h of treatment. Daily chronic administration of HB (50 mg/kg for 8 wk) ameliorated hyperglycemia and improved oral glucose tolerance associated with obesity without significantly affecting body weight or body composition. These changes were accompanied by lower expression of two key gluconeogenic enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase), and increased phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase in the liver and muscle tissue. In vitro, HB treatment (1-15 μM) inhibited cyclic AMP-stimulated but not dexamethasone-stimulated upregulation of PEPCK and G-6-Pase mRNA levels in H4IIE rat hepatoma cells. Among a series of brassinosteroid analogs related to HB, only homocastasterone decreased glucose production in cell culture significantly. These results indicate the antidiabetic effects of brassinosteroids and begin to elucidate their putative cellular targets both in vitro and in vivo.  相似文献

Summary

Hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) catalyses the terminal step of hepatic glucose production and it plays a key role in the maintenance of blood glucose homeostasis. Hepatic G-6-Pase is an integral resident endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protein and it is part of a multicomponent system. Its active site is situated inside the lumen of the ER and transport proteins are needed to allow its substrates, glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) (and pyrophosphate), and its products, phosphate and glucose, to cross the ER membrane. In addition, a calcium-binding protein is also associated with the G-6-Pase enzyme. Recent immunological studies have shown that G-6-Pase (which has conventionally been thought to be present only in the gluconeogenic organs) is present in minor cell types in a variety of human tissues and that its distribution changes dramatically during human development. In all the tissues, enzymatic analysis, direct transport assays and/or immunological detection of the ER glucose and phosphate transport proteins have been used to demonstrate the presence and activity of the whole G-6-Pase system. The G-6-Pase protein is very hydrophobic and has proved difficult to purify to homogeneity. Four proteins of the system have now been isolated and polyclonal antibodies have been raised against them; two have also been cloned. The available sequences, together with topologicai studies, have given some information about both the topology of the proteins in the ER and the probable mechanisms by which the proteins are retained in the ER.  相似文献

Novel concepts in insulin regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis is an important process in the adjustment of the blood glucose level, and pathological changes in the glucose production of the liver are a central characteristic in type 2 diabetes. The pharmacological intervention in signaling events that regulate the expression of the key gluconeogenic enzymes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and the catalytic subunit glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) is regarded as a potential strategy for the treatment of metabolic aberrations associated with this disease. However, such intervention requires a detailed understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of this process. Glucagon and glucocorticoids are known to increase hepatic gluconeogenesis by inducing the expression of PEPCK and G-6-Pase. The coactivator protein PGC-1 has been identified as an important mediator of this regulation. In contrast, insulin is known to suppress both PEPCK and G-6-Pase gene expression by the activation of PI 3-kinase. However, PI 3-kinase-independent pathways can also lead to the inhibition of gluconeogenic enzymes. This review focuses on signaling mechanisms and nuclear events that transduce the regulation of gluconeogenic enzymes.  相似文献

This study examines the early hepatic biochemical and ultrastructural responses to insulin replacement in streptozotocin-diabetic rats and insulin withdrawal from insulin-maintained diabetic rats. Insulin administration rapidly lowered plasma glucose and the elevated glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) specific activity of the diabetic rats. However, hepatic glycogen did not increase until after 3 hr of insulin treatment. Hepatic ultrastructure responded to insulin replacement after the decline in glucose and G-6-Pase. This was seen in periportal hepatocytes as a reduction in the close association between smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and glycogen particles in the diabetic animals. The treated rats showed hepatic SER restricted to the periphery of glycogen masses, as is characteristic of these cells from normal rats, in many cells by 6 hr and all cells by 18 hr. Insulin withdrawal from insulin-treated diabetic rats elicited nearly a total reversal of the above events. Plasma insulin declined to a value half that of the normal rats by 6 hr after withdrawal; concurrently, plasma glucose rose sharply to hyperglycemic values as hepatic glycogen content dropped. Following the rise in plasma glucose and fall in glycogen content, G-6-Pase specific activity increased and by 16 hr reached the high values characteristic of the diabetic animal. Hepatic ultrastructure was also changed as evidenced by an intrusion of elements of the SER into the dense glycogen masses; the result was dispersed glycogen closely associated with SER as seen in the diabetic animal. It is concluded that the hepatic response to insulin replacement in diabetic animals and diabetic onset in insulin-withdrawn animals is rapid and occurs through defined stages.  相似文献

Our earlier studies in vitro have shown that eugenol inhibits liver microsomal monooxygenase activities and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced lipid peroxidation (Free Rad. Res. 20,253-266,1994). The objective of the present investigation was to study the in vivo protective effect of eugenol against CCI4 toxicity. Eugenol (5 or 25 mg/kg body wt) given orally for 3 consecutive days did not alter the levels of serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (SGOTJ, microsomal enzymes such as cytochrome P450 reductase, glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes (aminopyrine-N-demethylase, N-nitrosodimethylamine-demethylase and ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase) and liver histology. Doses of eugenol (5 or 25 mg/kg) administered intragastrically to each rat on three consecutive days i.e. 48 hr, 24 hr and 30 min before a single oral dose of CCU (2.5 ml/kg body wt) prevented the rise in SGOT level without appreciable improvement in morphological changes in liver. Eugenol pretreatment also did not influence the decrease in microsomal cytochrome P450 content, G-6-Pase and xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes brought about by CCI4. Since eugenol is metabolized and cleared rapidly from the body, the dose schedule was modified in another experiment. Eugenol (0.2,1.0,5.0 or 25 mg/kg) when given thrice orally i.e. prior to (-1 hr) along with (0 hr) and after (+ 3 hr) the i.p. administration of CCI4 (0.4 ml/kg) prevented significantly the rise in SGOT activity as well as liver necrosis. The protective effect was more evident at 1 mg and 5 mg eugenol doses. However, the decrease in microsomal G-6-Pase activity by CCI4 treatment was not prevented by eugenol suggesting that the damage to endoplasmic reticulum is not protected. The protective effect of eugenol against CC14 induced hepatotoxicity is more evident when it is given concurrently or soon after rather than much before CCU treatment.  相似文献

Glucose is the main physiological stimulus for insulin biosynthesis and secretion by pancreatic beta-cells. Glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) catalyzes the dephosphorylation of glucose-6-phosphate to glucose, an opposite process to glucose utilization. G-6-Pase activity in pancreatic islets could therefore be an important factor in the control of glucose metabolism and, consequently, of glucose-dependent insulin secretion. While G-6-Pase activity has been shown to be present in pancreatic islets, the gene responsible for this activity has not been conclusively identified. A homolog of liver glucose-6-phosphatase (LG-6-Pase) specifically expressed in islets was described earlier; however, the authors could not demonstrate enzymatic activity for this protein. Here we present evidence that the previously identified islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase-related protein (IGRP) is indeed the major islet glucose-6-phosphatase. IGRP overexpressed in insect cells possesses enzymatic activity comparable to the previously described G-6-Pase activity in islets. The K(m) and V(max) values determined using glucose-6-phosphate as the substrate were 0.45 mm and 32 nmol/mg/min by malachite green assay, and 0.29 mm and 77 nmol/mg/min by glucose oxidase/peroxidase coupling assay, respectively. High-throughput screening of a small molecule library led to the identification of an active compound that specifically inhibits IGRP enzymatic activity. Interestingly, this inhibitor did not affect LG-6-Pase activity, while conversely LG-6-Pase inhibitors did not affect IGRP activity. These data demonstrate that IGRP is likely the authentic islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit, and selective inhibitors to this molecule can be obtained. IGRP inhibitors may be an attractive new approach for the treatment of insulin secretion defects in type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

The effects of chlorogenic acid (CA) on hepatic glucose output, blood glucose levels and on glucose tolerance were analysed. Hepatic uptake of CA and its effects on hepatic catabolism of L-alanine and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity were also evaluated. CA (1 mM) inhibited about 40% of G-6-Pase activity (p < 0.05) in the microsomal fraction of hepatocytes, but no effect was observed on production of glucose from gluconeogenesis or on L-alanine catabolism, at various concentrations of CA (0.33, 0.5 and 1 mM), in liver perfusion experiments. Since there were indications of a lack of uptake of CA by the liver, it is possible that this compound did not reach sufficiently high intracellular levels to inhibit the target enzyme. Accordingly, intravenous administration of CA also failed to provoke a reduction in blood glucose levels. However, CA did promote a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in the plasma glucose peak at 10 and 15 min during the oral glucose tolerance test, probably by attenuating intestinal glucose absorption, suggesting a possible role for it as a glycaemic index lowering agent and highlighting it as a compound of interest for reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

The role of endogenous glucagon and insulin on the hepatic glycogen and triglyceride storage syndrome in propylthiouracil (PTU)-induced hypothyroidism was investigated in the chick. PTU feeding in the diet resulted in a progressive increase in liver glycogen concentration associated with a concomitant decrease in hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity. Plasma glucagon level was significantly decreased and insulin significantly increased after two days of PTU administration. These enzyme and hormone changes were associated with a significant increase in hepatic glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) and a decrease in cyclic AMP levels. Although our results do not directly prove, the data does suggest that the hepatic glycogen storage syndrome observed in the PTU-induced hypothyroidism in the chick is mediated through changes in pancreatic glucagon and insulin secretion. The extent of glycogen accumulation was inversely related to G-6-Pase which is a rate limiting glycogenolytic enzyme. A significant increase in the plasma insulin/glucagon ratio, along with a significant decrease in the hepatic cyclic AMP concentration, could most likely also account for the excessive hepatic triglyceride accumulation in the PTU-treated chicks.  相似文献
