RNA-seq of livers from glucagon receptor knock-out (GcgrKO) mice compared to wildtype littermates


ABSTRACT: Glucagon is a key regulator of glucose homeostasis, amino acid catabolism, and lipid metabolism. Glucagon receptor knock-out (GcgrKO) mice have slightly reduced blood glucose levels whereas plasma levels of amino acids are vastly increased reflecting disruption of hepatic amino acid catabolism. To dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying this effect, RNA sequencing of livers from male GcgrKO mice and wild-type littermates were performed. The mice were 10 weeks of age and were subjected to a short-term fast of 4 h before anesthesia with 2.5% isoflurane.

<h4>Objective</h4>Glucagon is well known to regulate blood glucose but may be equally important for amino acid metabolism. Plasma levels of amino acids are regulated by glucagon-dependent mechanism(s), while amino acids stimulate glucagon secretion from alpha cells, completing the recently described liver-alpha cell axis. The mechanisms underlying the cycle and the possible impact of hepatic steatosis are unclear.<h4>Methods</h4>We assessed amino acid clearance in vivo in mice treated with a glu  ...[more]
