Resveratrol Alleviates Skeletal Muscle Insulin Resistance by Downregulating Long Noncoding RNA.

ABSTRACT: Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is a crucial factor in the progression of insulin resistance (IR). Resveratrol (RSV) exhibits promising therapeutic potential for IR. However, there are few studies on whether RSV improves IR through lncRNA. This study aimed to determine whether RSV could influence the expression of lncRNA and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. Mice were divided into three groups: control group, high-fat diet (HFD) group, and HFD + RSV group. We conducted a high-throughput sequencing analysis to detect lncRNA and mRNA expression signatures and the ceRNA-network in the skeletal muscles of mice that were fed an HFD to induce IR. Hierarchical clustering, gene enrichment, and gene ceRNA-network analyses were subsequently conducted. Differentially expressed lncRNAs were selected and validated via reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The biological functions of the selected lncRNAs were investigated by silencing the target genes via lentivirus transfection of C2C12 mouse myotube cells. RSV treatment reversed the expression of 338 mRNAs and 629 lncRNAs in the skeletal muscles of mice with HFD-induced IR. The results of the Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database analyses indicated that the differentially expressed mRNAs modulated type II diabetes mellitus. After validating randomly selected lncRNAs via RT-qPCR, we identified a novel lncRNA, NONMMUT044897.2, which was upregulated in the HFD group and reversed with RSV treatment. Additionally, NONMMUT044897.2 was proven to function as a ceRNA of microRNA- (miR-) 7051-5p. Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling 1 (SOCS1) was confirmed as a target of miR-7051-5p. We further performed lentivirus transfection to knock down NONMMUT044897.2 in vitro and found that NONMMUT044897.2 silenced SOCS1 and potentiated the insulin signaling pathway. Hence, RSV mimicked the silencing effect of lentivirus transfection on NONMMUT044897.2. Our study revealed that RSV reduced IR in mouse skeletal muscles via the regulation of NONMMUT044897.2.

Project description:Metformin (MET) is the first-line therapeutic option for patients with type 2 diabetes that has garnered substantial attention over recent years. However, an insufficient number of studies have been performed to assess its effects on insulin resistance and the expression profile of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). The present study divided mice into three groups: Control group, high-fat diet (HFD) group and HFD + MET group. A high-throughput sequencing analysis was conducted to detect lncRNA and mRNA expression levels, and differentially expressed lncRNAs were selected. Subsequently, the differentially expressed lncRNAs were validated both in vivo and in vitro (mouse liver AML12 cells treated with Palmitic acid) models of insulin resistance. After validating randomly selected lncRNAs via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR a novel lncRNA, NONMMUT031874.2, was identified, which was upregulated in the HFD group and reversed with MET treatment. To investigate the downstream mechanism of NONMMUT031874.2, lncRNA-microRNA (miR/miRNA)-mRNA co-expression network was constructed and NONCODE, miRBase and TargetScan databases were used, which indicated that NONMMUT031874.2 may regulate suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 by miR-7054-5p. For the in vitro part of the present study, AML12 cells were transfected with small interfering RNA to knock down NONMMUT031874.2 expression before being treated with palmitic acid (PA) and MET. The results showed that the expression of NONMMUT031874.2 was significantly increased whereas miR-7054-5p expression was significantly decreased by PA treatment. By contrast, after knocking down NONMMUT031874.2 expression or treatment with MET, the aforementioned in vitro observations were reversed. In addition, it was also found that NONMMUT031874.2 knockdown and treatment with MET exerted similar effects in alleviating insulin resistance and whilst decreasing glucose concentration in AML12 cells. These results suggest that MET treatment can ameliorate insulin resistance by downregulating NONMMUT031874.2 expression.
