Elevated concentration of plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) is now recognized as a key factor in the onset of insulin-resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. During fasting, circulating NEFAs arise from white adipose tissue (WAT) as a consequence of lipolysis from stored triacylglycerols. However, a significant part of these FAs (30-70%) is re-esterified within the adipocyte, so that a recycling occurs and net FA output is much less than < true > lipolysis. Indeed, a balance between two antagonistic processes, lipolysis and FA re-esterification, controls the rate of net FA release from WAT. During fasting, re-esterification requires glyceroneogenesis defined as the de novo synthesis of glycerol-3-P from pyruvate, lactate or certain amino acids. The key enzyme in this process is the cytosolic isoform of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C; EC 4.1.1.32). Recent advance has stressed the role of glyceroneogenesis and of PEPCK-C in FA release from WAT. Results indicate that glyceroneogenesis is indeed important to lipid homeostasis and that a disregulation in this pathway may have profound pathophysiological effects. The present review focuses on the regulation of glyceroneogenesis and of PEPCK-C gene expression and activity by FAs, retinoic acids, glucocorticoids and the hypolipidemic class of drugs, thiazolidinediones. 相似文献

PCK1 and PCK2 as candidate diabetes and obesity genes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The PCK1 gene (Pck1 in rodents) encodes the cytosolic isozyme of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C), which is well-known for its function
as a gluconeogenic enzyme in the liver and kidney. Mouse studies involving whole body and tissue-specific Pck1 knockouts as well as tissue-specific over-expression of PEPCK-C have resulted in type 2 diabetes as well as several surprising
phenotypes including obesity, lipodystrophy, fatty liver, and death. These phenotypes arise from perturbations not only in
gluconeogenesis but in two additional metabolic functions of PEPCK-C: (1) cataplerosis which maintains metabolic flux through
the Krebs cycle by removing excess oxaloacetate, and (2) glyceroneogenesis which produces glycerol-3-phosphate as a precursor
for fatty acid esterification into triglycerides. PEPCK-C catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate + GTP to phosphoenolpyruvate + GDP + CO2. It is in part the tissue-specificity of this simple reaction that results in the variety of phenotypes listed above. Briefly:
(1) A 7-fold over-expression of PEPCK-C in the livers of mice causes excessive glucose production. (2) Mice with a whole-body
knockout of Pck1 die within 2–3 days of birth, not from hypoglycemia, but probably because the Krebs cycle slows to approximately 10% of normal
in the absence of cataplerosis. (3) Mice with a liver-specific knockout have an inability to remove oxaloacetate from the
Krebs cycle, which leads to a fatty liver following a fast. (4) An adipose-specific knockout of Pck1 results in a fraction of the mice developing lipodystrophy due to lost glyceroneogenesis and a consequent decrease in fatty
acid re-esterification. (5) Finally, disregulated over-expression of PEPCK-C in adipose tissue increases fatty acid re-esterification
leading to obesity. These varied experimental phenotypes in mice have led us to postulate that abnormal production of PEPCK
isozymes encoded by two PEPCK genes, PCK1 and PCK2, in humans could have similar consequences (Beale, E. G. et al. (2004). Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 15, 129–135). The purpose of this review is to further explore these possibilities. 相似文献

The acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) is a 10-kDa intracellular protein that specifically binds acyl-CoA esters with high affinity and is structurally and functionally conserved from yeast to mammals. In vitro studies indicate that ACBP may regulate the availability of acyl-CoA esters for various metabolic and regulatory purposes. The protein is particularly abundant in cells with a high level of lipogenesis and de novo fatty acid synthesis and is significantly induced during adipocyte differentiation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of ACBP expression in mammalian cells have remained largely unknown. Here we report that ACBP is a novel peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma target gene. The rat ACBP gene is directly activated by PPARgamma/retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRalpha) and PPARalpha/RXRalpha, but not by PPARdelta/RXRalpha, through a PPAR-response element in intron 1, which is functionally conserved in the human ACBP gene. The intronic PPAR-response element (PPRE) mediates induction by endogenous PPARgamma in murine adipocytes and confers responsiveness to the PPARgamma-selective ligand BRL49653. Finally, we have used chromatin immunoprecipitation to demonstrate that the intronic PPRE efficiently binds PPARgamma/RXR in its natural chromatin context in adipocytes. Thus, the PPRE in intron 1 of the ACBP gene is a bona fide PPARgamma-response element. 相似文献

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (soluble) (PCK1) is a key gene in gluconeogenesis and glyceroneogenesis. Although its functions have been extensively studied in mice, bats and humans, little is known in ducks. Here, PCK1 functions were studied using a duck domestication model and a 48‐h fasting experiment. We found PCK1 expression significantly decreased in two breeds of domestic ducks (Jinyun Pockmark ducks and Cherry Valley ducks) as compared with wild ducks (Anas platyrhynchos). Simultaneously, plasma levels of glucose, triglycerides and free fatty acid in domestic ducks were lower than in wild ducks. When compared with fed ducks, the plasma triglyceride level was observed to be significantly decreased, while the glucose and free fatty acid levels remained constant in 48‐h fasting ducks. The expression analysis of gluconeogenic genes revealed that fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphatase genes (FBP1 and FBP2) and the glucose‐6‐phosphatase gene (G6PC2) were not changed, whereas PCK1 was significantly upregulated. In addition, the reported regulators of PCK1, including forkhead box A2 (FOXA2) gene and orphan nuclear receptor NR4A family genes (NR4A1, NR4A2 and NR4A3), exhibited similar expression levels between 48‐h fasting ducks and fed ducks, suggesting that PCK1 is not regulated by these genes in the duck under fasting conditions. In conclusion, PCK1 expression may affect plasma levels of glucose, triglycerides and free fatty acid during the duck domestication process. This work demonstrates for the first time in duck that PCK1 is a key gene in maintaining plasma glucose homeostasis during fasting and that the upregulated expression of PCK1 may be responsible for constant plasma free fatty acid level by the glyceroneogenesis process. 相似文献

Thiazolidinediones block fatty acid release by inducing glyceroneogenesis in fat cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Thiazolidinediones are used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus because they decrease plasma glucose, insulin, triglyceride, and fatty acid levels. Thiazolidinediones are agonists for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, a nuclear receptor that is highly expressed in fat tissue. We identify glyceroneogenesis as a target of thiazolidinediones in cultured adipocytes and fat tissues of Wistar rats. The activation of glyceroneogenesis by thiazolidinediones occurs mainly in visceral fat, the same fat depot that is specifically implicated in the progression of obesity to type 2 diabetes. The increase in glyceroneogenesis is a result of the induction of its key enzyme, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, whose gene expression is peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma-dependent in adipocytes. The main role of this metabolic pathway is to allow the re-esterification of fatty acids via a futile cycle in adipocytes, thus lowering fatty acid release into the plasma. The importance of such a fatty acid re-esterification process in the control of lipid homeostasis is highlighted by the existence of a second thiazolidinedione-induced pathway involving glycerol kinase. We show that glyceroneogenesis accounts for at least 75% of the whole thiazolidinedione effect. Because elevated plasma fatty acids promote insulin resistance, these results suggest that the glyceroneogenesis-dependent fatty acid-lowering effect of thiazolidinediones could be an essential aspect of the antidiabetic action of these drugs. 相似文献

We determined if fatty acids can regulate the murine Cyp7a1 and human CYP7A1 gene promoters via peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha)/9-cis-retinoic acid receptor alpha (RXRalpha). In transfected cells, the murine Cyp7a1 gene promoter displayed markedly lower basal activity, but greater sensitivity to fatty acid- or WY 14,643-activated PPARalpha/RXRalpha when compared with the human CYP7A1 gene promoter. PPARalpha/RXRalpha can bind to a site (Site II) located within the region at nucleotides -158 to -132 of both promoters. Mutagenesis of the human CYP7A1 Site II element abolished the response to activated PPARalpha/RXRalpha. The murine Cyp7a1 gene promoter contains an additional PPARalpha/RXRalpha-binding site (Site I) located within nucleotides -72 to -57. Replacement of a single residue in human CYP7A1 Site I with that found in the murine Cyp7a1 Site I sequence enabled PPARalpha/RXRalpha binding, and this mutation resulted in reduced basal activity, but substantially improved the response to activated PPARalpha/RXRalpha in transfected cells. We conclude that fatty acids can regulate the cyp7a gene promoter via PPARalpha/RXRalpha. The differential response of the murine Cyp7a1 and human CYP7A1 gene promoters to PPARalpha activators is attributable to the additional PPARalpha/RXRalpha-binding site in the murine Cyp7a1 gene promoter. 相似文献

Variants of the human intestinal fatty acid binding protein 2 gene (FABP2) are associated with traits of the metabolic syndrome. Relevant FABP2 promoter polymorphisms c.-80_-79insT, c.-136_-132delAGTAG, c.-168_-166delAAGinsT, c.-260G>A, c.-471G>A, and c.-778G>T result in two haplotypes A and B. Activation of haplotypes by rosiglitazone stimulated PPARgamma/RXRalpha leads to 2-fold higher activity of haplotype B than A. As shown by chimeric FABP2 promoter constructs, the higher responsiveness of FABP2 haplotype B is mainly but not solely determined by polymorphism c.-471G>A. As shown by EMSA and promoter-reporter assays, Oct-1 interacts with the -471 region of FABP2 promoters, induces the activities of both FABP2 promoter haplotypes and abolishes the different activities of haplotypes induced by rosiglitazone activated PPARgamma/RXRalpha. In conclusion, our findings suggest a functional role of PPARgamma/RXRalpha and Oct-1 in the regulation of the FABP2 gene. 相似文献
