Induction of heat shock protein (HSP)72 protects against obesity-induced insulin resistance, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we show that HSP72 plays a pivotal role in increasing skeletal muscle mitochondrial number and oxidative metabolism. Mice overexpressing HSP72 in skeletal muscle (HSP72Tg) and control wild-type (WT) mice were fed either a chow or high-fat diet (HFD). Despite a similar energy intake when HSP72Tg mice were compared with WT mice, the HFD increased body weight, intramuscular lipid accumulation (triacylglycerol and diacylglycerol but not ceramide), and severe glucose intolerance in WT mice alone. Whole-body VO2, fatty acid oxidation, and endurance running capacity were markedly increased in HSP72Tg mice. Moreover, HSP72Tg mice exhibited an increase in mitochondrial number. In addition, the HSP72 coinducer BGP-15, currently in human clinical trials for type 2 diabetes, also increased mitochondrial number and insulin sensitivity in a rat model of type 2 diabetes. Together, these data identify a novel role for activation of HSP72 in skeletal muscle. Thus, the increased oxidative metabolism associated with activation of HSP72 has potential clinical implications not only for type 2 diabetes but also for other disorders where mitochondrial function is compromised. 相似文献

Omega-3 fatty acids (i.e., docosahexaenoic acid; DHA) regulate signal transduction and gene expression, and protect neurons from death. In this study we examined the capacity of dietary omega3 fatty acids supplementation to help the brain to cope with the effects of traumatic injury. Rats were fed a regular diet or an experimental diet supplemented with omega-3 fatty acids, for 4 weeks before a mild fluid percussion injury (FPI) was performed. FPI increased oxidative stress, and impaired learning ability in the Morris water maze. This type of lesion also reduced levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), synapsin I, and cAMP responsive element-binding protein (CREB). It is known that BDNF facilitates synaptic transmission and learning ability by modulating synapsin I and CREB. Supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet counteracted all of the studied effects of FPI, that is, normalized levels of BDNF and associated synapsin I and CREB, reduced oxidative damage, and counteracted learning disability. The reduction of oxidative stress indicates a benevolent effect of this diet on mechanisms that maintain neuronal function and plasticity. These results imply that omega-3 enriched dietary supplements can provide protection against reduced plasticity and impaired learning ability after traumatic brain injury. 相似文献

Recent studies using magnetic resonance spectroscopy have shown that decreased insulin-stimulated muscle glycogen synthesis due to a defect in insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity is a major factor in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. The molecular mechanism underlying defective insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity can be attributed to increases in intramyocellular lipid metabolites such as fatty acyl CoAs and diacylglycerol, which in turn activate a serine/threonine kinase cascade, thus leading to defects in insulin signaling through Ser/Thr phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1. A similar mechanism is also observed in hepatic insulin resistance associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver, which is a common feature of type 2 diabetes, where increases in hepatocellular diacylglycerol content activate protein kinase C-epsilon, leading to reduced insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-2. More recently, magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies in healthy lean elderly subjects and healthy lean insulin-resistant offspring of parents with type 2 diabetes have demonstrated that reduced mitochondrial function may predispose these individuals to intramyocellular lipid accumulation and insulin resistance. Further analysis has found that the reduction in mitochondrial function in the insulin-resistant offspring can be mostly attributed to reductions in mitochondrial density. By elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for insulin resistance, these studies provide potential new targets for the treatment and prevention of type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

Are oxidative stress-activated signaling pathways mediators of insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction? 总被引:37,自引:0,他引:37
In both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, diabetic complications in target organs arise from chronic elevations of glucose. The pathogenic effect of high glucose, possibly in concert with fatty acids, is mediated to a significant extent via increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and subsequent oxidative stress. ROS and RNS directly oxidize and damage DNA, proteins, and lipids. In addition to their ability to directly inflict damage on macromolecules, ROS and RNS indirectly induce damage to tissues by activating a number of cellular stress-sensitive pathways. These pathways include nuclear factor-kappaB, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, NH(2)-terminal Jun kinases/stress-activated protein kinases, hexosamines, and others. In addition, there is evidence that in type 2 diabetes, the activation of these same pathways by elevations in glucose and free fatty acid (FFA) levels leads to both insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Therefore, we propose here that the hyperglycemia-induced, and possibly FFA-induced, activation of stress pathways plays a key role in the development of not only the late complications in type 1 and type 2 diabetes, but also the insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion seen in type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

A reduced capacity for mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle has been proposed as a major factor leading to the accumulation of intramuscular lipids and their subsequent deleterious effects on insulin action. Here, we examine markers of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidative capacity in rodent models of insulin resistance associated with an oversupply of lipids. C57BL/6J mice were fed a high-fat diet for either 5 or 20 weeks. Several markers of muscle mitochondrial fatty acid oxidative capacity were measured, including (14)C-palmitate oxidation, palmitoyl-CoA oxidation in isolated mitochondria, oxidative enzyme activity (citrate synthase, beta-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase, medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, and carnitine palmitoyl-transferase 1), and expression of proteins involved in mitochondrial metabolism. Enzyme activity and mitochondrial protein expression were also examined in muscle from other rodent models of insulin resistance. Compared with standard diet-fed controls, muscle from fat-fed mice displayed elevated palmitate oxidation rate (5 weeks +23%, P < 0.05, and 20 weeks +29%, P < 0.05) and increased palmitoyl-CoA oxidation in isolated mitochondria (20 weeks +49%, P < 0.01). Furthermore, oxidative enzyme activity and protein expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator (PGC)-1alpha, uncoupling protein (UCP) 3, and mitochondrial respiratory chain subunits were significantly elevated in fat-fed animals. A similar pattern was present in muscle of fat-fed rats, obese Zucker rats, and db/db mice, with increases observed for oxidative enzyme activity and expression of PGC-1alpha, UCP3, and subunits of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. These findings suggest that high lipid availability does not lead to intramuscular lipid accumulation and insulin resistance in rodents by decreasing muscle mitochondrial fatty acid oxidative capacity. 相似文献

In healthy people,balance between glucose production and its utilization is precisely controlled.When circulating glucose reaches a critical threshold level,pancreaticβcells secrete insulin that has two major actions:to lower circulating glucose levels by facilitating its uptake mainly into skeletal muscle while inhibiting its production by the liver.Interestingly,dietary triglycerides are the main source of fatty acids to fulfill energy needs of oxidative tissues.Normally,the unconsumed fraction of excess of fatty acids is stored in lipid droplets that are localized in adipocytes to provide energy during fasting periods.Thus,adipose tissue acts as a trap for fatty acid excess liberated from plasma triglycerides.When the buffering action of adipose tissue to store fatty acids is impaired,fatty acids that build up in othertissues are metabolized as sphingolipid derivatives such as ceramides.Several studies suggest that ceramides are among the most active lipid second messengers to inhibit the insulin signaling pathway and this review describes the major role played by ceramide accumulation in the development of insulin resistance of peripherals tissues through the targeting of specific proteins of the insulin signaling pathway. 相似文献

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), known modulators of the immune response, are the source of essential fatty acids in total parenteral nutrition-dependent patients. Critically ill infants on TPN have an increased incidence of sepsis, and lipid emulsions depress various immune functions. Recent studies have demonstrated that PUFAs induce apoptosis in various tissue cells in vitro and ex vivo. The susceptibility of neonatal monocytes, as major early effector cells in the host response to sepsis, to PUFA-mediated apoptosis and the mechanisms associated with PUFA-induced apoptosis were investigated. Both n-3 and n-6 PUFAs induced rapid, dose-dependent cell death in purified monocytes. Polyunsaturated fatty acids induced significant activation of upstream caspases 8 and 9 as well as caspase 3. The PUFA treatment resulted in a 4-fold increase in oxidative stress and a loss of monocyte mitochondrial potential compared with carrier controls (P < .05). The addition of cyclosporin, which blocks the development of mitochondrial transition pores, completely abolished the proapoptotic effects of PUFAs. Although Trolox (Sigma Aldrich) reduced PUFA-induced intracellular oxidative stress in neonatal monocytes, apoptosis was not blocked by this potent antioxidant. The data identify PUFAs as potent inducers of monocyte apoptosis, which can occur independently of the induction of oxidative stress, by using a mitochondrial dependent pathway. The TPN-dependent infant may be particularly sensitive to such PUFA effects, having a relatively poor capacity to both use and clear PUFAs. 相似文献

Lipid droplet proteins of the PAT (perilipin, adipophilin, and TIP47) family regulate cellular neutral lipid stores. We have studied a new member of this family, PAT-1, and found that it is expressed in highly oxidative tissues. We refer to this protein as "OXPAT." Physiologic lipid loading of mouse liver by fasting enriches OXPAT in the lipid droplet tissue fraction. OXPAT resides on lipid droplets with the PAT protein adipophilin in primary cardiomyocytes. Ectopic expression of OXPAT promotes fatty acid-induced triacylglycerol accumulation, long-chain fatty acid oxidation, and mRNAs associated with oxidative metabolism. Consistent with these observations, OXPAT is induced in mouse adipose tissue, striated muscle, and liver by physiological (fasting), pathophysiological (insulin deficiency), pharmacological (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor [PPAR] agonists), and genetic (muscle-specific PPARalpha overexpression) perturbations that increase fatty acid utilization. In humans with impaired glucose tolerance, PPARgamma agonist treatment induces adipose OXPAT mRNA. Further, adipose OXPAT mRNA negatively correlates with BMI in nondiabetic humans. Our collective data in cells, mice, and humans suggest that OXPAT is a marker for PPAR activation and fatty acid oxidation. OXPAT likely contributes to adaptive responses to the fatty acid burden that accompanies fasting, insulin deficiency, and overnutrition, responses that are defective in obesity and type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

Insulin plays pivotal role in cellular fuel metabolism in skeletal muscle. Despite being the primary site of energy metabolism, the underlying mechanism on how insulin deficiency deranges skeletal muscle mitochondrial physiology remains to be fully understood. Here we report an important link between altered skeletal muscle proteome homeostasis and mitochondrial physiology during insulin deficiency. Deprivation of insulin in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice decreased mitochondrial ATP production, reduced coupling and phosphorylation efficiency, and increased oxidant emission in skeletal muscle. Proteomic survey revealed that the mitochondrial derangements during insulin deficiency were related to increased mitochondrial protein degradation and decreased protein synthesis, resulting in reduced abundance of proteins involved in mitochondrial respiration and β-oxidation. However, a paradoxical upregulation of proteins involved in cellular uptake of fatty acids triggered an accumulation of incomplete fatty acid oxidation products in skeletal muscle. These data implicate a mismatch of β-oxidation and fatty acid uptake as a mechanism leading to increased oxidative stress in diabetes. This notion was supported by elevated oxidative stress in cultured myotubes exposed to palmitate in the presence of a β-oxidation inhibitor. Together, these results indicate that insulin deficiency alters the balance of proteins involved in fatty acid transport and oxidation in skeletal muscle, leading to impaired mitochondrial function and increased oxidative stress. 相似文献

Lipid oversupply plays a role in developing insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, decreasing expression of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes, and increasing extracellular matrix remodeling. To determine if a decrease in plasma lipid content reverses these abnormalities, insulin-resistant subjects with a family history of type 2 diabetes had euglycemic clamps and muscle biopsies before and after acipimox treatment to suppress free fatty acids. Free fatty acids fell from 0.584 +/- 0.041 to 0.252 +/- 0.053 mmol/l (P < 0.001) and glucose disposal increased from 5.28 +/- 0.46 to 6.31 +/- 0.55 mg . kg(-1) . min(-1) (P < 0.05) after acipimox; intramuscular fatty acyl CoA decreased from 10.3 +/- 1.9 to 4.54 +/- 0.82 pmol/mg muscle (P < 0.01). Paradoxically, expression of PGC-1-and nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes decreased after acipimox, and expression of collagens I and III alpha-subunits (82- and 21-fold increase, respectively, P < 0.05), connective tissue growth factor (2.5-fold increase, P < 0.001), and transforming growth factor-beta1 increased (2.95-fold increase, P < 0.05). Therefore, a reduction in lipid supply does not completely reverse the molecular changes associated with lipid oversupply in muscle. Changes in expression of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes do not always correlate with changes in insulin sensitivity. 相似文献

Obesity is often regarded as the primary cause of metabolic syndrome. However, many lines of evidence suggest that obesity may develop as a protective mechanism against tissue damage during caloric surplus and that it is only when the maximum fat accumulation capacity is reached and fatty acid spillover occurs into to peripheral tissues that metabolic diseases develop. In this regard, identifying the molecular mechanisms that modulate adipocyte fat accumulation and fatty acid spillover is imperative. Here we identify the deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1) protein as a key regulator of fat storage capacity of adipocytes. We found that knockout (KO) of DBC1 facilitated fat cell differentiation and lipid accumulation and increased fat storage capacity of adipocytes in vitro and in vivo. This effect resulted in a “healthy obesity” phenotype. DBC1 KO mice fed a high-fat diet, although obese, remained insulin sensitive, had lower free fatty acid in plasma, were protected against atherosclerosis and liver steatosis, and lived longer. We propose that DBC1 is part of the molecular machinery that regulates fat storage capacity in adipocytes and participates in the “turn-off” switch that limits adipocyte fat accumulation and leads to fat spillover into peripheral tissues, leading to the deleterious effects of caloric surplus. 相似文献

Lipotoxicity 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Excess fatty acids accompanied by triglyceride accumulation in parenchymal cells of multiple tissues including skeletal and cardiac myocytes, hepatocytes, and pancreatic beta cells results in chronic cellular dysfunction and injury. The process, now termed lipotoxicity, can account for many manifestations of the 'metabolic syndrome'. Most data suggest that the triglycerides serve primarily a storage function with toxicity deriving mainly from long-chain nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) and their products such as ceramides and diacylglycerols. In the kidney, filtered NEFA carried on albumin can aggravate the chronic tubule damage and inflammatory phenotype that develop during proteinuric states and lipid loading of both glomerular and tubular cells is a common response to renal injury that contributes to progression of nephropathy. NEFA-induced mitochondrial dysfunction is the primary mechanism for energetic failure of proximal tubules during hypoxia/reoxygenation and persistent increases of tubule cell NEFA and triglycerides occur during acute renal failure in vivo in association with downregulation of mitochondrial and peroxisomal enzymes of beta oxidation. In acute renal failure models, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha ligand treatment can ameliorate the NEFA and triglyceride accumulation and limits tissue injury likely via both direct tubule actions and anti-inflammatory effects. Both acute and chronic kidney disease are associated with systemic manifestations of the metabolic syndrome. 相似文献

Recent preclinical studies showed the potential of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) precursors to increase oxidative phosphorylation and improve metabolic health, but human data are lacking. We hypothesize that the nicotinic acid derivative acipimox, an NAD+ precursor, would directly affect mitochondrial function independent of reductions in nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations. In a multicenter randomized crossover trial, 21 patients with type 2 diabetes (age 57.7 ± 1.1 years, BMI 33.4 ± 0.8 kg/m2) received either placebo or acipimox 250 mg three times daily dosage for 2 weeks. Acipimox treatment increased plasma NEFA levels (759 ± 44 vs. 1,135 ± 97 μmol/L for placebo vs. acipimox, P < 0.01) owing to a previously described rebound effect. As a result, skeletal muscle lipid content increased and insulin sensitivity decreased. Despite the elevated plasma NEFA levels, ex vivo mitochondrial respiration in skeletal muscle increased. Subsequently, we showed that acipimox treatment resulted in a robust elevation in expression of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial gene sets and a mitonuclear protein imbalance, which may indicate activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response. Further studies in C2C12 myotubes confirmed a direct effect of acipimox on NAD+ levels, mitonuclear protein imbalance, and mitochondrial oxidative capacity. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to demonstrate that NAD+ boosters can also directly affect skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in humans. 相似文献

Insulin resistance is the best predictor for the development of diabetes in offspring of type 2 diabetic patients, but the mechanism responsible for it remains unknown. Recent studies have demonstrated increased intramyocellular lipid, decreased mitochondrial ATP synthesis, and decreased mitochondrial density in the muscle of lean, insulin-resistant offspring of type 2 diabetic patients. These data suggest an important role for mitochondrial dysfunction in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. To further explore this hypothesis, we assessed rates of substrate oxidation in the muscle of these same individuals using (13)C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Young, lean, insulin-resistant offspring of type 2 diabetic patients and insulin-sensitive control subjects underwent (13)C MRS studies to noninvasively assess rates of substrate oxidation in muscle by monitoring the incorporation of (13)C label into C(4) glutamate during a [2-(13)C]acetate infusion. Using this approach, we found that rates of muscle mitochondrial substrate oxidation were decreased by 30% in lean, insulin-resistant offspring (59.8 +/- 5.1 nmol x g(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.02) compared with insulin-sensitive control subjects (96.1 +/- 16.3 nmol x g(-1) x min(-1)). These data support the hypothesis that insulin resistance in skeletal muscle of insulin-resistant offspring is associated with dysregulation of intramyocellular fatty acid metabolism, possibly because of an inherited defect in the activity of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. 相似文献

Thiazolidinediones upregulate fatty acid uptake and oxidation in adipose tissue of diabetic patients 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are a new class of insulin-sensitizing drugs. To explore how and in which tissues they improve insulin action, we obtained fat and muscle biopsies from eight patients with type 2 diabetes before and 2 months after treatment with rosiglitazone (n = 5) or troglitazone (n = 3). TZD treatment was associated with a coordinated upregulation in the expression of genes and synthesis of proteins involved in fatty acid uptake, binding, beta-oxidation and electron transport, and oxidative phosphorylation in subcutaneous fat but not in skeletal muscle. These changes were accompanied by a 13% increase in total body fat oxidation, a 20% decrease in plasma free fatty acid levels, and a 46% increase in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. We conclude that TZDs induced a coordinated stimulation of fatty acid uptake, oxidation, and oxidative phosphorylation in fat of diabetic patients and thus may have corrected, at least partially, a recently recognized defect in patients with type 2 diabetes consisting of reduced expression of genes related to oxidative metabolism and mitochondrial function. 相似文献

Hyperglycemia causes many of the pathological consequences of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Much of this damage is suggested to be a consequence of elevated production of reactive oxygen species by the mitochondrial respiratory chain during hyperglycemia. Mitochondrial radical production associated with hyperglycemia will also disrupt glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by pancreatic beta-cells, because pancreatic beta-cells are particularly susceptible to oxidative damage. Therefore, mitochondrial radical production in response to hyperglycemia contributes to both the progression and pathological complications of diabetes. Consequently, strategies to decrease mitochondrial radical production and oxidative damage may have therapeutic potential. This could be achieved by the use of antioxidants or by decreasing the mitochondrial membrane potential. Here, we outline the background to these strategies and discuss how antioxidants targeted to mitochondria, or selective mitochondrial uncoupling, may be potential therapies for diabetes. 相似文献

To test whether long-chain fatty acyl-CoA esters link obesity with type 2 diabetes through inhibition of the mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocator, we applied a system-biology approach, dual modular kinetic analysis, with mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi) and the fraction of matrix ATP as intermediates. We found that 5 mumol/l palmitoyl-CoA inhibited adenine nucleotide translocator, without direct effect on other components of oxidative phosphorylation. Indirect effects depended on how oxidative phosphorylation was regulated. When the electron donor and phosphate acceptor were in excess, and the mitochondrial "work" flux was allowed to vary, palmitoyl-CoA decreased phosphorylation flux by 38% and the fraction of ATP in the medium by 39%. Deltapsi increased by 15 mV, and the fraction of matrix ATP increased by 46%. Palmitoyl-CoA had a stronger effect when the flux through the mitochondrial electron transfer chain was maintained constant: Deltapsi increased by 27 mV, and the fraction of matrix ATP increased 2.6 times. When oxidative phosphorylation flux was kept constant by adjusting the rate using hexokinase, Deltapsi and the fraction of ATP were not affected. Palmitoyl-CoA increased the extramitochondrial AMP concentration significantly. The effects of palmitoyl-CoA in our model system support the proposed mechanism linking obesity and type 2 diabetes through an effect on adenine nucleotide translocator. 相似文献

Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause kidney damage in diabetes. We investigated the source and site of ROS production by kidney cortical tubule mitochondria in streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes in rats. In diabetic mitochondria, the increased amounts and activities of selective fatty acid oxidation enzymes is associated with increased oxidative phosphorylation and net ROS production with fatty acid substrates (by 40% and 30%, respectively), whereas pyruvate oxidation is decreased and pyruvate-supported ROS production is unchanged. Oxidation of substrates that donate electrons at specific sites in the electron transport chain (ETC) is unchanged. The increased maximal production of ROS with fatty acid oxidation is not affected by limiting the electron flow from complex I into complex III. The maximal capacity of the ubiquinol oxidation site in complex III in generating ROS does not differ between the control and diabetic mitochondria. In conclusion, the mitochondrial ETC is neither the target nor the site of ROS production in kidney tubule mitochondria in short-term diabetes. Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation is the source of the increased net ROS production, and the site of electron leakage is located proximal to coenzyme Q at the electron transfer flavoprotein that shuttles electrons from acyl-CoA dehydrogenases to coenzyme Q. 相似文献

Mitochondrial DNA damage associated with lipid peroxidation of the mitochondrial membrane induced by Fe2+-citrate 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Iron imbalance/accumulation has been implicated in oxidative injury associated with many degenerative diseases such as hereditary hemochromatosis, beta-thalassemia, and Friedreich's ataxia. Mitochondria are particularly sensitive to iron-induced oxidative stress - high loads of iron cause extensive lipid peroxidation and membrane permeabilization in isolated mitochondria. Here we detected and characterized mitochondrial DNA damage in isolated rat liver mitochondria exposed to a Fe2+-citrate complex, a small molecular weight complex. Intense DNA fragmentation was induced after the incubation of mitochondria with the iron complex. The detection of 3' phosphoglycolate ends at the mtDNA strand breaks by a 32P-postlabeling assay, suggested the involvement of hydroxyl radical in the DNA fragmentation induced by Fe2+-citrate. Increased levels of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine also suggested that Fe2+-citrate-induced oxidative stress causes mitochondrial DNA damage. In conclusion, our results show that iron-mediated lipid peroxidation was associated with intense mtDNA damage derived from the direct attack of reactive oxygen species. 相似文献
