Activation of intestinal olfactory receptor stimulates glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion in enteroendocrine cells and attenuates hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetic mice.

ABSTRACT: Odorants are non-nutrients. However, they exist abundantly in foods, wines, and teas, and thus can be ingested along with the other nutrients during a meal. Here, we have focused on the chemical-recognition ability of these ORs and hypothesized that the odorants ingested during a meal may play a physiological role by activating the gut-expressed ORs. Using a human-derived enteroendocrine L cell line, we discovered the geraniol- and citronellal-mediated stimulation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion and elucidated the corresponding cellular downstream signaling pathways. The geraniol-stimulated GLP-1 secretion event in the enteroendocrine cell line was mediated by the olfactory-type G protein, the activation of adenylyl cyclase, increased intracellular cAMP levels, and extracellular calcium influx. TaqMan qPCR demonstrated that two ORs corresponding to geraniol and citronellal were expressed in the human enteroendocrine cell line and in mouse intestinal specimen. In a type 2 diabetes mellitus mouse model (db/db), oral administration of geraniol improved glucose homeostasis by increasing plasma GLP-1 and insulin levels. This insulinotropic action of geraniol was GLP-1 receptor-mediated, and also was glucose-dependent. This study demonstrates that odor compounds can be recognized by gut-expressed ORs during meal ingestion and therefore, participate in the glucose homeostasis by inducing the secretion of gut-peptides.

Project description:ObjectiveGlucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is co-secreted with GLP-1 from gut endocrine cells, and both peptides act as growth factors to expand the surface area of the mucosal epithelium. Notably, GLP-2 also enhances glucose and lipid transport in enterocytes; however, its actions on control of amino acid (AA) transport remain unclear. Here we examined the mechanisms linking gain and loss of GLP-2 receptor (GLP-2R) signaling to control of intestinal amino acid absorption in mice.MethodsAbsorption, transport, and clearance of essential AAs, specifically lysine, were measured in vivo by Liquid Chromatography triple quadrupole Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and ex vivo with Ussing chambers using intestinal preparations from Glp2r+/+ and Glp2r-/- mice. Immunoblotting determined jejunal levels of protein components of signaling pathways (PI3K-AKT, and mTORC1-pS6-p4E-BP1) following administration of GLP-2, protein gavage, and rapamycin to fasted Glp2r+/+ and Glp2r-/- mice. Expression of AA transporters from full thickness jejunum and 4F2hc from brush border membrane vesicles (BBMVs) was measured by real-time PCR and immunoblotting, respectively.ResultsAcute administration of GLP-2 increased basal AA absorption in vivo and augmented basal lysine transport ex vivo. GLP-2-stimulated lysine transport was attenuated by co-incubation with wortmannin, rapamycin, or tetrodotoxin ex vivo. Phosphorylation of mTORC1 effector proteins S6 and 4E-BP1 was significantly increased in wild-type mice in response to GLP-2 alone, or when co-administered with protein gavage, and abolished following oral gavage of rapamycin. In contrast, activation of GLP-1R signaling did not enhance S6 phosphorylation. Disruption of GLP-2 action in Glp2r-/- mice reduced lysine transport ex vivo and attenuated the phosphorylation of S6 and 4E-BP1 in response to oral protein. Moreover, the expression of cationic AA transporter slc7a9 in response to refeeding, and the abundance of 4F2hc in BBMVs following protein gavage, was significantly attenuated in Glp2r-/- mice.ConclusionsThese findings reveal an important role for GLP-2R signaling in the physiological and pharmacological control of enteral amino acid sensing and assimilation, defining an enteroendocrine cell-enterocyte axis for optimal energy absorption.
