Novel Grb14-Mediated Cross Talk between Insulin and p62/Nrf2 Pathways Regulates Liver Lipogenesis and Selective Insulin Resistance.

ABSTRACT: A long-standing paradox in the pathophysiology of metabolic diseases is the selective insulin resistance of the liver. It is characterized by a blunted action of insulin to reduce glucose production, contributing to hyperglycemia, while de novo lipogenesis remains insulin sensitive, participating in turn to hepatic steatosis onset. The underlying molecular bases of this conundrum are not yet fully understood. Here, we established a model of selective insulin resistance in mice by silencing an inhibitor of insulin receptor catalytic activity, the growth factor receptor binding protein 14 (Grb14) in liver. Indeed, Grb14 knockdown enhanced hepatic insulin signaling but also dramatically inhibited de novo fatty acid synthesis. In the liver of obese and insulin-resistant mice, downregulation of Grb14 markedly decreased blood glucose and improved liver steatosis. Mechanistic analyses showed that upon Grb14 knockdown, the release of p62/sqstm1, a partner of Grb14, activated the transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), which in turn repressed the lipogenic nuclear liver X receptor (LXR). Our study reveals that Grb14 acts as a new signaling node that regulates lipogenesis and modulates insulin sensitivity in the liver by acting at a crossroad between the insulin receptor and the p62-Nrf2-LXR signaling pathways.

Project description:BACKGROUNDAn increase in intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) is the hallmark feature of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and is decreased by weight loss. Hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) contributes to steatosis in individuals with NAFLD. The physiological factors that stimulate hepatic DNL and the effect of weight loss on hepatic DNL are not clear.METHODSHepatic DNL, 24-hour integrated plasma insulin and glucose concentrations, and both liver and whole-body insulin sensitivity were determined in individuals who were lean (n = 14), obese with normal IHTG content (n = 26), or obese with NAFLD (n = 27). Hepatic DNL was assessed using the deuterated water method corrected for the potential confounding contribution of adipose tissue DNL. Liver and whole-body insulin sensitivity was assessed using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp procedure in conjunction with glucose tracer infusion. Six subjects in the obese-NAFLD group were also evaluated before and after a diet-induced weight loss of 10%.RESULTSThe contribution of hepatic DNL to IHTG-palmitate was 11%, 19%, and 38% in the lean, obese, and obese-NAFLD groups, respectively. Hepatic DNL was inversely correlated with hepatic and whole-body insulin sensitivity, but directly correlated with 24-hour plasma glucose and insulin concentrations. Weight loss decreased IHTG content, in conjunction with a decrease in hepatic DNL and 24-hour plasma glucose and insulin concentrations.CONCLUSIONSThese data suggest hepatic DNL is an important regulator of IHTG content and that increases in circulating glucose and insulin stimulate hepatic DNL in individuals with NAFLD. Weight loss decreased IHTG content, at least in part, by decreasing hepatic DNL.TRIAL REGISTRATIONClinicalTrials.gov NCT02706262.FUNDINGThis study was supported by NIH grants DK56341 (Nutrition Obesity Research Center), DK20579 (Diabetes Research Center), DK52574 (Digestive Disease Research Center), and RR024992 (Clinical and Translational Science Award), and by grants from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Foundation, the College of Natural Resources of UCB, and the Pershing Square Foundation.
