The current study evaluated both the time course of insulin resistance associated with feeding dogs a high-fat diet and the relationship between the development of insulin resistance and the increase in blood pressure that also occurs. Twelve adult mongrel dogs were chronically instrumented and randomly assigned to either a control diet group (n = 4) or a high-fat diet group (n = 8). Insulin resistance was assessed by a weekly, single-dose (2 mU.kg-1.min-1) euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp on all dogs. Feeding dogs a high-fat diet was associated with a 3.7 +/- 0.5 kg increase in body weight, a 20 +/- 4 mmHg increase in mean blood pressure, a reduction in insulin-mediated glucose uptake [(in mumol-kg-1.min-1) decreasing from 72 +/- 6 before to 49 +/- 7 at 1 wk, 29 +/- 3 at 3 wk, and 30 +/- 2 at 6 wk of the high-fat diet, P < 0.01]. and a reduced insulin-mediated increase in cardiac output. In eight dogs (4 high fat and 4 control), the dose-response relationship of insulin-induced glucose uptake also was studied. The whole body glucose uptake dose-response curve was shifted to the right, and the rate of maximal whole body glucose uptake was significantly decreased (P < 0.001). Finally, we observed a direct relationship between the high-fat diet-induced weekly increase in mean arterial pressure and the degree to which insulin resistance developed. In summary, the current study documents that feeding dogs a high-fat diet causes the rapid development of insulin resistance that is the result of both a reduced sensitivity and a reduced responsiveness to insulin.

Enhanced levels of nuclear factor (NF)-κB-inducing kinase (NIK), an upstream kinase in the NF-κB pathway, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation in diabetes. We investigated whether increased levels of NIK could induce skeletal muscle insulin resistance. Six obese subjects with metabolic syndrome underwent skeletal muscle biopsies before and six months after gastric bypass surgery to quantitate NIK protein levels. L6 skeletal myotubes, transfected with NIK wild-type or NIK kinase-dead dominant negative plasmids, were treated with insulin alone or with adiponectin and insulin. Effects of NIK overexpression on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake were estimated using tritiated 2-deoxyglucose uptake. NF-κB activation (EMSA), phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3) kinase activity, and phosphorylation of inhibitor κB kinase β and serine-threonine kinase (Akt) were measured. After weight loss, skeletal muscle NIK protein was significantly reduced in association with increased plasma adiponectin and enhanced AMP kinase phosphorylation and insulin sensitivity in obese subjects. Enhanced NIK expression in cultured L6 myotubes induced a dose-dependent decrease in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. The decrease in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was associated with a significant decrease in PI3 kinase activity and protein kinase B/Akt phosphorylation. Overexpression of NIK kinase-dead dominant negative did not affect insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. Adiponectin treatment inhibited NIK-induced NF-κB activation and restored insulin sensitivity by restoring PI3 kinase activation and subsequent Akt phosphorylation. These results indicate that NIK induces insulin resistance and further indicate that adiponectin exerts its insulin-sensitizing effect by suppressing NIK-induced skeletal muscle inflammation. These observations suggest that NIK could be an important therapeutic target for the treatment of insulin resistance associated with inflammation in obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Background: The objective of the research was to investigate the roles of miR-4458 in the regulation of insulin resistance in hepatic cells and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. Methods: The blood samples were collected from the T2D patients and the health controls, and the liver tissues were collected from the DM and control rats. The relationship between IGF1R and miR-4458 was predicted by TargetScan and verified by the dual luciferase reporter gene system. qRT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression of miR-4458, IGF1R, G6Pase and PEPCK. The protein expression of IGF1R, p-AKT and AKT were measured by Western blot analysis. The rat insulin ELISA Kit and glucose Uptake Colorimteric Assay Kit were used to determine the level of serum insulin and the glucose uptake. Results: miR-4458 was high expressed in T2D patients. We predicted and verified that IGF1R was a direct target of miR-4458, and the mRNA expression of IGF1R was reduced in type 2 diabetes patients. We established the diabetes model (DM) and IR HepG2 cell model, and found that the blood glucose and serum insulin levels were significantly elevated in the DM group. miR-4458 expression was up-regulated, while the expression of IGF1R and p-AKT, and p-AKT/AKT ratio were reduced in the DM group and IR HepG2 cell model. miR-4458 inhibitor and IGF1R-siRNA significantly decreased the expression of miR-4458 and IGF1R respectively. In comparison with IR+inhibitor control group, miR-4458 inhibitor increased 2-DG6P content, IGF1R expression, p-AKT expression and p-AKT/AKT ratio, reduced the expression of G6Pase and PEPCK, and all the effects were reversed by down-regulating IGF1R. Conclusion: miR-4458 regulated the insulin resistance in hepatic cells by regulating the IGF1R/PI3K/AKT signal pathway, which will be a potential target for the treatment of diabetes.

14-Deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (deAND), a bioactive component of Andrographis paniculata, has antidiabetic activity. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulates glucose transport and ameliorates insulin resistance. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether activation of AMPK is involved in the mechanism by which deAND ameliorates insulin resistance in muscles. deAND amounts up to 40 [Formula: see text]M dose-dependently activated phosphorylation of AMPK[Formula: see text] and TBC1D1 in C2C12 myotubes. In addition, deAND significantly activated phosphorylation of LKB1 at 6 h after treatment, and this activation was maintained up to 48 h. deAND increased glucose uptake at 18 h after treatment, and this increase was time dependent up to 72 h. Compound C, an inhibitor of AMPK, suppressed deAND-induced phosphorylation of AMPK[Formula: see text] and TBC1D1 and reversed the effect on glucose uptake. In addition, the expression of GLUT4 mRNA and protein in C2C12 myotubes was up-regulated by deAND in a time-dependent manner. Promotion of GLUT4 gene transcription was verified by a pGL3-GLUT4 (837 bp) reporter assay. deAND also increased the nuclear translocation of MEF-2A and PPAR[Formula: see text]. After 16 weeks of feeding, the high-fat diet (HFD) inhibited phosphorylation of AMPK[Formula: see text] and TBC1D1 in skeletal muscle of obese C57BL/6JNarl mice, and deactivation of AMPK[Formula: see text] and TBC1D1 by the HFD was abolished by deAND supplementation. Supplementation with deAND significantly promoted membrane translocation of GLUT4 compared with the HFD group. Supplementation also significantly increased GLUT4 mRNA and protein expression in skeletal muscle compared with the HFD group. The hypoglycemic effects of deAND are likely associated with activation of the LKB1/AMPK[Formula: see text]/TBC1D1/GLUT4 signaling pathway and stimulation of MEF-2A- and PPAR[Formula: see text]-dependent GLUT4 gene expression, which account for the glucose uptake into skeletal muscle and lower blood glucose levels.

Impaired action of insulin in skeletal muscle, termed insulin resistance, leads to increased blood glucose levels resulting in compensatory increase in insulin levels. The elevated blood glucose and insulin levels exacerbate insulin resistance and contribute to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In previous studies we found attenuation of free fatty acid-induced muscle cell insulin resistance by rosemary extract (RE). In the present study we investigated the effects of RE on high glucose (HG) and high insulin (HI)-induced muscle cell insulin resistance. Exposure of L6 myotubes to 25 mM glucose and 100 nM insulin for 24 h, to mimic hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, abolished the acute insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, increased the serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and the phosphorylation/ activation of mTOR and p70S6K. Treatment with RE significantly improved the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and increased the acute insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation while reduced the HG+HI-induced serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and phosphorylation of mTOR and p70S6K. Additionally, treatment with RE significantly increased the phosphorylation of AMPK, its downstream effector ACC and the plasma membrane GLUT4 levels. Our data indicate a potential of RE to counteract muscle cell insulin resistance and more studies are required to investigate its effectiveness in vivo. Novelty: • Rosemary extract (RE) phosphorylated muscle cell AMPK and ACC under both normal and high glucose (HG)/high insulin (HI) conditions. • The HG/HI-induced serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and activation of mTOR and p70S6K were attenuated by RE. • RE increased the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by enhancing GLUT4 glucose transporter translocation to plasma membrane.

Leukocyte Antigen

Several protein tyrosine phosphatases including leukocyte antigen-related (LAR) phosphatase have been implicated in insulin resistance, which is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. We showed previously that LAR negatively regulates insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) signaling in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) leading to increased proliferation and migration. Absence of LAR also enhanced neointima formation in response to arterial injury in mice. However, the role of LAR-modulated signaling in the development of insulin resistance has not been elucidated. Here, we investigated the function of LAR in regulating glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity. We identified snapin, a SNARE-associated protein involved in glucose transporter Glut4 vesicle fusion with plasma membrane, as a LAR-interacting protein using a yeast two-hybrid screen. IGF1-induced serine phosphorylation of snapin, its translocation to membrane and association with SNARE complex were enhanced in VSMC lacking LAR. Similarly, PI3K-PDK1-PKCζ signaling pathway was more active in LAR-/- cells after IGF1 treatment. This resulted in enhanced Glut4 activation, its membrane translocation and association with snapin. Glut4 membrane translocation and association with snapin after IGF1 treatment were impaired in snapin+/− VSMC. IGF1 treatment also increased serine phosphorylation of GSK3 β in LAR−/− VSMC leading to increased activation of glycogen synthase. Consistent with this, enhanced glucose uptake was observed in LAR−/− VSMC compared to wild-type cells after IGF1 treatment. Basal and IGF1-induced glucose uptake were significantly lower in snapin+/− VSMC than in wild-type cells. Snapin+/− mice had higher levels of blood glucose, lower quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) and impaired response to insulin in insulin tolerance test (ITT) compared to wild-type mice. Decrease of QUICKI and impairment of IIT were more pronounced in snapin+/− mice fed a high-fat diet. In addition, Doppler ultrasonography indicated increased arterial stiffness in snapin+/− mice. Together, these data indicate that LAR negatively regulates snapin phosphorylation which in turn affects glucose uptake leading to the development of insulin resistance and vascular pathology.

We set out to examine whether angiotensin-driven hypertension can alter insulin action and whether these changes are reflected as changes in interstitial insulin (the signal to which insulin-sensitive cells respond to increase glucose uptake). To this end, we measured hemodynamic parameters, glucose turnover, and insulin dynamics in both plasma and interstitial fluid (lymph) during hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamps in anesthetized dogs, with or without simultaneous infusions of angiotensin II (ANG II). Hyperinsulinemia per se failed to alter mean arterial pressure, heart rate, or femoral blood flow. ANG II infusion resulted in increased mean arterial pressure (68 ± 16 to 94 ± 14 mmHg, P < 0.001) with a compensatory decrease in heart rate (110 ± 7 vs. 86 ± 4 mmHg, P < 0.05). Peripheral resistance was significantly increased by ANG II from 0.434 to 0.507 mmHg ⋅ ml−1⋅ min ( P < 0.05). ANG II infusion increased femoral artery blood flow (176 ± 4 to 187 ± 5 ml/min, P < 0.05) and resulted in additional increases in both plasma and lymph insulin (93 ± 20 to 122 ± 13 μU/ml and 30 ± 4 to 45 ± 8 μU/ml, P < 0.05). However, glucose uptake was not significantly altered and actually had a tendency to be lower (5.9 ± 1.2 vs. 5.4 ± 0.7 mg ⋅ kg−1⋅ min−1, P > 0.10). Mimicking of the ANG II-induced hyperinsulinemia resulted in an additional increase in glucose uptake. These data imply that ANG II induces insulin resistance by an effect independent of a reduction in interstitial insulin.

Abstract Aims Angiotensin II (AngII) is a potent vasoconstrictor implicated in both hypertension and insulin resistance. Insulin dilates the vasculature in skeletal muscle to increase microvascular blood flow and enhance glucose disposal. In the present study, we investigated whether acute AngII infusion interferes with insulin’s microvascular and metabolic actions in skeletal muscle. Methods and results Adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats received a systemic infusion of either saline, AngII, insulin (hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp), or insulin (hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp) plus AngII. A final, separate group of rats received an acute local infusion of AngII into a single hindleg during systemic insulin (hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp) infusion. In all animals’ systemic metabolic effects, central haemodynamics, femoral artery blood flow, microvascular blood flow, and skeletal muscle glucose uptake (isotopic glucose) were monitored. Systemic AngII infusion increased blood pressure, decreased heart rate, and markedly increased circulating glucose and insulin concentrations. Systemic infusion of AngII during hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp inhibited insulin-mediated suppression of hepatic glucose output and insulin-stimulated microvascular blood flow in skeletal muscle but did not alter insulin’s effects on the femoral artery or muscle glucose uptake. Local AngII infusion did not alter blood pressure, heart rate, or circulating glucose and insulin. However, local AngII inhibited insulin-stimulated microvascular blood flow, and this was accompanied by reduced skeletal muscle glucose uptake. Conclusions Acute infusion of AngII significantly alters basal haemodynamic and metabolic homeostasis in rats. Both local and systemic AngII infusion attenuated insulin’s microvascular actions in skeletal muscle, but only local AngII infusion led to reduced insulin-stimulated muscle glucose uptake. While increased local, tissue production of AngII may be a factor that couples microvascular insulin resistance and hypertension, additional studies are needed to determine the molecular mechanisms responsible for these vascular defects.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with insulin resistance-induced lipid and glucose metabolism disorder. The study was aimed to explore the potential functional role of microRNA (miR)-27b-3p in T2DM, as well as underlying mechanisms. An insulin resistance cell model was induced in HepG2 cells and then expression of miR-27b-3p and receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) was analyzed. The expression of miR-27b-3p was overexpressed or silenced, and the relationship between ROR1 and miR-27b-3p was investigated. Thereafter, the effects of miR-27b-3p on percentage of glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation and cell cycle were analyzed. The expressions of miR-27b-3p were significantly increased, while the ROR1 levels were statistically decreased in the cells of the model group. Overexpression of miR-27b-3p dramatically decreased the levels of ROR1 and the percentage of glucose uptake, but had no effects on fatty acid oxidation. ROR1 was a target of miR-27b-3p. Moreover, overexpression of miR-27b-3p could remarkably highlight the percentages of cells at G0/G1 phase, but decreased the percentages of cells at S phase. In conclusion, our results suggest that miR-27b-3p regulates the function and metabolism of insulin resistance cells by inhibiting ROR1. miR-27b-3p might be a potential drug target in treating T2DM.
