BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) has an important role in mitochondria biogenesis which generated cellular metabolism. Carbohydrate metabolism in the liver is crucial to maintain plasma blood glucose. AIM: This research aimed to determine the expression of PGC-1α gene in the liver type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rat model, after treatment with a focus on exercise. METHODS: We used 25 healthy male Wistar rats as subjects. Rats were modified to T2DM models by feeding a high-fat diet and low-dose streptozotocin injection. We divided the rats into five groups, that is, sedentary group as a control and four others as treatment groups. The exercise was assigned for treatment groups by a run on the treadmill as moderate intensity continuous (MIC), highintensity continuous (HIC), slow interval (SI), and fast interval (FI). The treatment groups were exercise throughout 8 weeks with a frequency of 3 times a week. RESULTS: The results showed that expression of PGC-1α gene was lower in all treatment groups compared to controls (p < 0.05). Expression in HIC was higher than MIC (p < 0.05), so was the expression in FI more than SI (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Exercise affected PGC-1α gene expression in the liver of the T2DM rat model. The expression of PGC-1α was linear with exercise intensity.

Effective Part

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is often treated with insulin-sensitizing drugs called thiazolidinediones (TZD), which improve insulin resistance and glycemic control. Despite their effectiveness in treating diabetes, these drugs provide little protection from eminent cardiovascular disease associated with diabetes. Here we demonstrate how chiglitazar, a configuration-restricted non-TZD peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) pan agonist with moderate transcription activity, preferentially regulates ANGPTL4 and PDK4, which are involved in glucose and lipid metabolism. CDK5-mediated phosphorylation at serine 273 (S273) is a unique regulatory mechanism reserved for PPARγ, and this event is linked to insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Our data demonstrates that chiglitazar modulates gene expression differently from two TZDs, rosiglitazone and pioglitazone, via its configuration-restricted binding and phosphorylation inhibition of PPARγ. Chiglitazar induced significantly greater expression of ANGPTL4 and PDK4 than rosiglitazone and pioglitazone in different cell models. These increased expressions were dependent on the phosphorylation status of PPARγ at S273. Furthermore, ChIP and AlphaScreen assays showed that phosphorylation at S273 inhibited promoter binding and cofactor recruitment by PPARγ. Based on these results, activities from pan agonist chiglitazar can be an effective part of a long-term therapeutic strategy for treating type 2 diabetes in a more balanced action among its targeted organs.

Calorie Diet

The agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) ameliorate cardiovascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus. We tested the hypothesis that recovery from ailing to failing myocardium in diabetes by PPARγ agonist is in part due to decreased matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) activation and left ventricular (LV) tissue levels of homocysteine (Hcy). C57BL/6J mice were made diabetic (D) by feeding them a high-fat calorie diet. PPARγ was activated by adding pioglitazone (Pi) to the diet. After 6 wk, mice were grouped into: normal calorie diet (N), D, N + Pi and D + Pi ( n = 6 in each group). LV variables were measured by echocardiography, endothelial-myocyte (E-M) coupling was measured in cardiac rings, and MMP-9 activation was measured by zymography. Blood glucose levels were twofold higher in D mice compared with N mice. Pi decreased the levels of glucose in D mice to the levels in N mice. LV Hcy levels were 3.5 ± 0.5 μM in N groups compared with 12.4 ± 0.6 μM in D groups. Treatment with Pi normalized the LV levels of Hcy but had no effect on plasma levels of Hcy. In the D group, LV contraction was reduced compared with that of the N group and was ameliorated by treatment with Pi. LV wall thickness was reduced to 0.25 ± 0.02 mm in the D group compared with 0.42 ± 0.01 mm in the N group. LV diastolic diameter was 3.05 ± 0.01 mm in the D group compared with 2.20 ± 0.02 mm in the N group. LV systolic diameter was 1.19 ± 0.02 mm in the D group and 0.59 ± 0.01 mm in the N group. Pi normalized the LV variables in D mice. The responses to ACh and nitroprusside were attenuated in diabetic hearts, suggesting that there was E-M uncoupling in the D group compared with the N group, which was ameliorated by Pi. Plasma and LV levels of MMP-2 and -9 activities were higher in the D group than in the N group but normalized after Pi treatment. These results suggest that E-M uncoupling in the myocardium, in part, is due to increased MMP activities secondary to suppressing PPARγ activity in high-fat, calorie-induced Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
