Abstract The current study aimed to investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1), a novel hepatokine, in whole-body glucose metabolism. Here, we found that hepatic ERAP1 levels were increased in insulin-resistant leptin-receptor-mutated (db/db) and high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice. Consistently, hepatic ERAP1 overexpression attenuated skeletal muscle (SM) insulin sensitivity, whereas knockdown ameliorated SM insulin resistance. Furthermore, serum and hepatic ERAP1 levels were positively correlated, and recombinant mouse ERAP1 or conditioned medium with high ERAP1 content (CM-ERAP1) attenuated insulin signaling in C2C12 myotubes, and CM-ERAP1 or HFD-induced insulin resistance was blocked by ERAP1 neutralizing antibodies. Mechanistically, ERAP1 reduced ADRB2 expression and interrupted ADRB2-dependent signaling in C2C12 myotubes. Finally, ERAP1 inhibition via global knockout or the inhibitor thimerosal improved insulin sensitivity. Together, ERAP1 is a hepatokine that impairs SM and whole-body insulin sensitivity, and its inhibition might provide a therapeutic strategy for diabetes, particularly for those with SM insulin resistance.

Skeletal Muscle Insulin Sensitivity

Intramuscular lipid accumulation has been associated with insulin resistance (IR), aging, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and obesity. A substantial body of evidence has implicated ceramides, a sphingolipid intermediate, as potent antagonists of insulin action that drive insulin resistance. Indeed, genetic mouse studies that lower ceramides are potently insulin sensitizing. Surprisingly less is known about how physical activity (skeletal muscle contraction) regulates ceramides, especially in light that muscle contraction regulates insulin sensitivity. The purpose of this review is to critically evaluate studies (rodent and human) concerning the relationship between skeletal muscle ceramides and IR in response to increased physical activity. Our review of the literature indicates that chronic exercise reduces ceramide levels in individuals with obesity, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia. However, metabolically healthy individuals engaged in increased physical activity can improve insulin sensitivity independent of changes in skeletal muscle ceramide content. Herein we discuss these studies and provide context regarding the technical limitations (e.g., difficulty assessing the myriad ceramide species, the challenge of obtaining information on subcellular compartmentalization, and the paucity of flux measurements) and a lack of mechanistic studies that prevent a more sophisticated assessment of the ceramide pathway during increased contractile activity that lead to divergences in skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity.

—Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in skeletal muscle may play a role in potentiating the beneficial responses to exercise; however, the effects of exercise-induced ROS on insulin action and protein signaling in humans has not been fully elucidated. Seven healthy, recreationally active participants volunteered for this double-blind, randomized, repeated-measures crossover study. Exercise was undertaken with infusion of saline (CON) or the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to attenuate ROS. Participants performed two 1-h cycling exercise sessions 7–14 days apart, 55 min at 65% V̇o2peak plus 5 min at 85%V̇o2peak, followed 3 h later by a 2-h hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (40 mIU·min−1·m2) to determine insulin sensitivity. Four muscle biopsies were taken on each trial day, at baseline before NAC infusion (BASE), after exercise (EX), after 3-h recovery (REC), and post-insulin clamp (PI). Exercise, ROS, and insulin action on protein phosphorylation were evaluated with immunoblotting. NAC tended to decrease postexercise markers of the ROS/protein carbonylation ratio by −13.5% ( P = 0.08) and increase the GSH/GSSG ratio twofold vs. CON ( P < 0.05). Insulin sensitivity was reduced (−5.9%, P < 0.05) by NAC compared with CON without decreased phosphorylation of Akt or AS160. Whereas p-mTOR was not significantly decreased by NAC after EX or REC, phosphorylation of the downstream protein synthesis target kinase p70S6K was blunted by 48% at PI with NAC compared with CON ( P < 0.05). We conclude that NAC infusion attenuated muscle ROS and postexercise insulin sensitivity independent of Akt signaling. ROS also played a role in normal p70S6K phosphorylation in response to insulin stimulation in human skeletal muscle.
