Transcriptome and proteome expressions involved in insulin resistance in muscle and activated T-lymphocytes of patients with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: We analyzed the genes expressed (transcriptomes) and the proteins translated (pro- teomes) in muscle tissues and activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-lymphocytes (T-cells) of five Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) subjects using Affymetrix microarrays and mass spectrometry, and compared them with matched non-diabetic controls. Gene expressions of insulin receptor (INSR), vitamin D receptor, insulin degrading enzyme, Akt, insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), IRS-2, glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), and enzymes of the glycolytic pathway were decreased at least 50% in T2DM than in controls. However, there was greater than two-fold gene upregulation of plasma cell glycoprotein-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha, and gluconeogenic enzymes in T2DM than in controls. The gene silencing for INSR or TNFalpha resulted in the inhibition or stimulation of GLUT4, respectively. Proteome profiles corresponding to molecular weights of the above translated transcriptomes showed different patterns of changes between T2DM and controls. Meanwhile, changes in transcriptomes and proteomes between muscle and activated T-cells of T2DM were comparable. Activated T-cells, analogous to muscle cells, expressed insulin signaling and glucose metabolism genes and gene products. In conclusion, T-cells and muscle in T2DM exhibited differences in expression of certain genes and gene products relative to non-diabetic controls. These alterations in transcriptomes and proteomes in T2DM may be involved in insulin resistance.

Project description:Diabetic 'lipotoxicity' theory suggests that fat-induced skeletal muscle insulin resistance (FISMIR) in obesity induced by a high-fat diet (HFD), which leads to ectopic lipid accumulation in insulin-sensitive tissues, may play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. However, the changes in gene expression and the molecular mechanisms associated with the pathogenesis of FISMIR have not yet been fully elucidated. In the present study the changes in skeletal muscle gene expression were examined in FISMIR in obese insulin-resistant and diabetic hamster models induced by HFD with or without low-dose streptozotocin-treatment. Microarray technology and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were used to explore the potential underlying molecular mechanisms. The pathophysiological and metabolic features of obesity and type 2 diabetes in humans are closely resembled by these hamster models. The results of microarray analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes associated with metabolism were mostly related to the abnormal regulation and changes in the gene expression of liver X receptor (LXR), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) transcriptional programs in the skeletal muscle from insulin-resistant and diabetic hamsters. The microarray findings confirmed by RT-qPCR indicated that the increased expression of SREBPs and LXRβ and the decreased expression of LXRα and PPARs were involved in the molecular mechanisms of FISMIR pathogenesis in insulin-resistant and diabetic hamsters. A significant difference in the abnormal expression of skeletal muscle LXRs, PPARs and SREBPs was found between insulin-resistant and diabetic hamsters. It may be concluded that the combined abnormal expression of LXR, PPAR and SREBP transcriptional programs may contribute to the development of FISMIR mediated by skeletal muscle lipid accumulation resulting from abnormal skeletal muscle glucose and lipid metabolism in these HFD- and streptozotocin injection-induced insulin-resistant and diabetic hamsters.

Project description:Short-term muscle disuse is characterized by skeletal muscle insulin resistance, although this response is divergent across subjects. The mechanisms regulating inactivity-induced insulin resistance between populations that are more or less susceptible to disuse-induced insulin resistance are not known. RNA sequencing was conducted on vastus lateralis muscle biopsies from subjects before and after bed rest (n = 26) to describe the transcriptome of inactivity-induced insulin resistance. Subjects were separated into Low (n = 14) or High (n = 12) Susceptibility Groups based on the magnitude of change in insulin sensitivity after 5 days of bed rest. Both groups became insulin-resistant after bed rest, and there were no differences between groups in nonmetabolic characteristics (body mass, body mass index, fat mass, and lean mass). The High Susceptibility Group had more genes altered >1.5-fold (426 high versus 391 low) and more than twofold (73 high versus 55 low). Twenty-four genes were altered more than twofold in the High Susceptibility Group that did not change in the Low Susceptibility Group. 95 gene changes correlated with the changes in insulin sensitivity; 6 of these genes changed more than twofold in the High Susceptibility Group. Participants in the High Susceptibility Group were uniquely characterized with muscle gene responses described by a decrease in pathways responsible for lipid uptake and oxidation, decreased capacity for triglyceride export (APOB), increased lipogenesis (i.e., PFKFB3, FASN), and increased amino acid export (SLC43A1). These transcriptomic data provide a comprehensive examination of pathways and genes that may be useful biomarkers, or novel targets to offset muscle disuse-induced insulin resistance. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Short-term muscle disuse results in skeletal muscle insulin resistance through mechanisms that are not fully understood. Following a 5-day bed rest intervention, subjects were divided into High and Low Susceptibility Groups to inactivity-induced insulin resistance. This was followed by a genome-wide transcriptional analysis on muscle biopsy samples to gain insight on divergent insulin sensitivity responses. Our primary finding was that the skeletal muscle of subjects who experienced the most inactivity-induced insulin resistance (high susceptibility) was characterized by a decreased preference for lipid oxidation, increased lipogenesis, and increased amino acid export.

Project description:BackgroundMacrophage-derived factors contribute to whole-body insulin resistance, partly by impinging on metabolically active tissues. As proof of principle for this interaction, conditioned medium from macrophages treated with palmitate (CM-PA) reduces insulin action and glucose uptake in muscle cells. However, the mechanism whereby CM-PA confers this negative response onto muscle cells remains unknown.Methodology/principal findingsL6-GLUT4myc myoblasts were exposed for 24 h to palmitate-free conditioned medium from RAW 264.7 macrophages pre-treated with 0.5 mM palmitate for 6 h. This palmitate-free CM-PA, containing selective cytokines and chemokines, inhibited myoblast insulin-stimulated insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) tyrosine phosphorylation, AS160 phosphorylation, GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake. These effects were accompanied by a rise in c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation, degradation of Inhibitor of ?B? (I?B?), and elevated expression of proinflammatory cytokines in myoblasts. Notably, CM-PA caused IRS1 phosphorylation on Ser1101, and phosphorylation of novel PKC? and ?. Co-incubation of myoblasts with CM-PA and the novel and conventional PKC inhibitor Gö6983 (but not with the conventional PKC inhibitor Gö6976) prevented PKC? and ? activation, JNK phosphorylation, restored I?B? mass and reduced proinflammatory cytokine production. Gö6983 also restored insulin signalling and glucose uptake in myoblasts. Moreover, co-silencing both novel PKC ? and ? isoforms in myoblasts by RNA interference, but not their individual silencing, prevented the inflammatory response and restored insulin sensitivity to CM-PA-treated myoblasts.Conclusions/clinical significanceThe results suggest that the block in muscle insulin action caused by CM-PA is mediated by novel PKC? and PKC?. This study re-establishes the participation of macrophages as a relay in the action of fatty acids on muscle cells, and further identifies PKC? and PKC? as key elements in the inflammatory and insulin resistance responses of muscle cells to macrophage products. Furthermore, it portrays these PKC isoforms as potential targets for the treatment of fatty acid-induced, inflammation-linked insulin resistance.

Project description:ContextType 2 diabetes is associated with a greater risk for musculoskeletal disorders, yet its impact on joint function remains unclear.ObjectiveWe hypothesized that patients with type 2 diabetes and osteoarthritis would exhibit musculoskeletal impairment, which would associate with insulin resistance and distinct microRNA profiles.MethodsParticipants of the German Diabetes Study with type 2 diabetes (T2D, n = 39) or normal glucose tolerance (CON, n = 27), both with (+OA) or without osteoarthritis (-OA) underwent intravenous glucose tolerance and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp tests. Musculoskeletal function was assessed by isometric knee extension strength (KES), grip strength, range of motion (ROM), and balance skills, while neural function was measured by nerve conductance velocity (NCV). Arthritis-related symptoms were quantified using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire, serum arthritis-related microRNA using quantitative polymerase chain reaction.ResultsInsulin sensitivity was lower in T2D+OA vs T2D-OA (4.4 ± 2.0 vs 5.7 ± 3.0 mg* kg-1*min-1) and in CON+OA vs CON-OA (8.1 ± 2.0 vs 12.0 ± 2.6 mg*kg-1,*min-1, both P < .05). In T2D+OA, KES and ROM were 60% and 22% lower than in CON+OA, respectively (both P < .05). Insulin sensitivity correlated positively with KES (r = 0.41, P < .05) among T2D, and negatively with symptom severity in CON and T2D (r = -0.60 and r = -0.46, respectively, P < .05). CON+OA and T2D+OA had inferior balance skills than CON-OA, whereas NCV was comparable in T2D+OA and T2D-OA. Expression of arthritis-related microRNAs was upregulated in T2D compared to CON, but downregulated in CON+OA compared to CON-OA (P < .05), and did not differ between T2D+OA and T2D-OA.ConclusionMusculoskeletal impairment and osteoarthritis-related symptoms are associated with insulin resistance. Type 2 diabetes can mask changes in arthritis-related microRNA profiles.
