Project description:Adropin is a peptide hormone encoded by the Energy Homeostasis Associated (ENHO) gene whose physiological role in humans remains incompletely defined. Here we investigated the impact of dietary interventions that affect systemic glucose and lipid metabolism on plasma adropin concentrations in humans. Consumption of glucose or fructose as 25% of daily energy requirements (E) differentially affected plasma adropin concentrations (P < 0.005) irrespective of duration, sex or age. Glucose consumption reduced plasma adropin from 3.55 ± 0.26 to 3.28 ± 0.23 ng/ml (N = 42). Fructose consumption increased plasma adropin from 3.63 ± 0.29 to 3.93 ± 0.34 ng/ml (N = 45). Consumption of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) as 25% E had no effect (3.43 ± 0.32 versus 3.39 ± 0.24 ng/ml, N = 26). Overall, the effect of glucose, HFCS and fructose on circulating adropin concentrations were similar to those observed on postprandial plasma triglyceride concentrations. Furthermore, increases in plasma adropin levels with fructose intake were most robust in individuals exhibiting hypertriglyceridemia. Individuals with low plasma adropin concentrations also exhibited rapid increases in plasma levels following consumption of breakfasts supplemented with lipids. These are the first results linking plasma adropin levels with dietary sugar intake in humans, with the impact of fructose consumption linked to systemic triglyceride metabolism. In addition, dietary fat intake may also increase circulating adropin concentrations.

Project description:The stability at 42 degrees C of clearing-factor lipase in adipose tissue, and in intact fat-cells isolated from it, was investigated. That portion of the total activity of the tissue which is associated with the fat-cell is stable under such conditions. This stability is markedly diminished when the fat-cell is disrupted.

Project description:(1) Background: Clinical results on the effects of excess sugar consumption on insulin sensitivity are conflicting, possibly due to differences in sugar type and the insulin sensitivity index (ISI) assessed. Therefore, we compared the effects of consuming four different sugars on insulin sensitivity indices derived from oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT). (2) Methods: Young adults consumed fructose-, glucose-, high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS)-, sucrose-, or aspartame-sweetened beverages (SB) for 2 weeks. Participants underwent OGTT before and at the end of the intervention. Fasting glucose and insulin, Homeostatic Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), glucose and insulin area under the curve, Surrogate Hepatic Insulin Resistance Index, Matsuda ISI, Predicted M ISI, and Stumvoll Index were assessed. Outcomes were analyzed to determine: (1) effects of the five SB; (2) effects of the proportions of fructose and glucose in all SB. (3) Results: Fructose-SB and the fructose component in mixed sugars negatively affected outcomes that assess hepatic insulin sensitivity, while glucose did not. The effects of glucose-SB and the glucose component in mixed sugar on muscle insulin sensitivity were more negative than those of fructose. (4) Conclusion: the effects of consuming sugar-SB on insulin sensitivity varied depending on type of sugar and ISI index because outcomes assessing hepatic insulin sensitivity were negatively affected by fructose, and outcomes assessing muscle insulin sensitivity were more negatively affected by glucose.

Project description:1. Clearing-factor lipase was assayed in acetone-ether-dried powders of heart and adipose tissue of pigs. The enzyme activity in heart was higher than that in adipose tissue. The activity in the outer layer of subcutaneous fat was greater than that in the inner subcutaneous fat and the perirenal fat, which had similar activities. 2. Starvation for 48h, but not for 24h, decreased the activity of the heart enzyme. 3. Starvation for 24h caused a rapid decrease in the activity in all three adipose tissues, but even after 72h of starvation the activity was still highest in the outer subcutaneous fat. 4. Plasma fatty acid, glucose and insulin concentrations were determined in fed and starved pigs. Starvation decreased the plasma insulin concentration and increased the non-esterified fatty acid concentration.

Project description:The progressive increase in clearing-factor lipase activity that occurs during the incubation of adipose tissue from starved rats in an appropriate medium at 25 degrees C is shown to occur in two stages. The first of these is not inhibited by cycloheximide, whereas the second is.

Project description:The associations of glucose, fructose, and sucrose intake with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been inconsistent. Furthermore, there is a lack of studies focusing on early markers of T2DM that provide insight into the process of T2DM progression: impaired pancreatic ?-cell function (BCF) and insulin sensitivity. This study evaluated associations cross-sectionally in a population-based cohort consisting of 2818 individuals (mean ± SD age 59.7 ± 8.18, 49.5% male, n = 120 newly diagnosed T2DM). Glucose, fructose, and sucrose intake were assessed by a food frequency questionnaire. Glucose metabolism status, insulin sensitivity, and BCF were measured by a seven-points oral glucose tolerance test. Linear regression analysis revealed a positive association of glucose intake with insulin sensitivity in the fully adjusted model (standardized beta (95% CI) 0.07 (0.05, 0.14) SD for ?23 g vs. <10 g of glucose). Fructose and sucrose intake were not associated with insulin sensitivity after full adjustments. In addition, no associations of dietary glucose, fructose, and sucrose with BCF were detected. In conclusion, higher intake of glucose, not fructose and sucrose, was associated with higher insulin sensitivity, independent of dietary fibre. No convincing evidence was found for associations of dietary glucose, fructose, and sucrose with BCF in this middle-aged population.

Project description:1. When adipose tissue from starved rats is incubated in a medium containing glucose, insulin, heparin and actinomycin (5mug./ml.) the total clearing-factor lipase activity of the system increases at least tenfold over a period of 9hr. In the absence of actinomycin, enzyme activity also increases, but to a lesser extent and for only about 3hr. Some enzyme activity appears in the incubation medium in both the presence and the absence of actinomycin. 2. When the glucose and insulin of the incubation medium are replaced by pyruvate and heparin is omitted, an increase in the total clearing-factor lipase activity in the presence of actinomycin still occurs, but only after a lag of several hours. When only heparin is omitted from the medium, the rise in enzyme activity begins immediately, but there is a shoulder in the time-course curve after a few hours. In the absence of heparin, little enzyme activity appears in the incubation medium. 3. The increases in enzyme activity in the presence of actinomycin are prevented if puromycin (0.5mg./ml.) is present in the incubation medium. 4. Catecholamines and corticotrophin inhibit the increase in enzyme activity caused by actinomycin. 5. The clearing-factor lipase activity of adipose tissue from fed animals declines with a half-life of between 1 and 1.5hr. when the tissue is incubated in the presence of puromycin. The clearing-factor lipase activity of adipose tissue from starved animals is stable under similar circumstances, as is the raised activity found after such tissue has been incubated in the presence of actinomycin. 6. Clearing-factor lipase extracted from adipose tissue of fed animals is less stable in solution than that extracted from the tissue of starved animals after this has been incubated in the presence of actinomycin.

Project description:Diets rich in added sugars are associated with metabolic diseases, and studies have shown a link between these pathologies and changes in the microbiome. Given the reported associations in animal models between the microbiome and brown adipose tissue (BAT) function, and the alterations in the microbiome induced by high-glucose or high-fructose diets, we investigated the potential causal link between high-glucose or -fructose diets and BAT dysfunction in humans. Primary outcomes are changes in BAT cold-induced thermogenesis and the fecal microbiome (clinicaltrials.gov, NCT03188835). We show that BAT glucose uptake, but not thermogenesis, is impaired by a high-fructose but not high-glucose diet, in the absence of changes in the gastrointestinal microbiome. We conclude that decreased BAT glucose metabolism occurs earlier than other pathophysiological abnormalities during fructose overconsumption in humans. This is a potential confounding factor for studies relying on 18F-FDG to assess BAT thermogenesis.

Project description:A significant problem still exists with the low power output and durability of the bioelectrochemical fuel cells. We constructed a fuel cell with an enzymatic cascade at the anode for efficient energy conversion. The construction involved fabrication of the flow-through cell by three-dimensional printing. Gold nanoparticles with covalently bound naphthoquinone moieties deposited on cellulose/polypyrrole (CPPy) paper allowed us to significantly improve the catalysis rate, both at the anode and cathode of the fuel cell. The enzymatic cascade on the anode consisted of invertase, mutarotase, Flavine Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent glucose dehydrogenase and fructose dehydrogenase. The multi-substrate anode utilized glucose, fructose, sucrose, or a combination of them, as the anode fuel and molecular oxygen were the oxidant at the laccase-based cathode. Laccase was adsorbed on the same type of naphthoquinone modified gold nanoparticles. Interestingly, the naphthoquinone modified gold nanoparticles acted as the enzyme orienting units and not as mediators since the catalyzed oxygen reduction occurred at the potential where direct electron transfer takes place. Thanks to the good catalytic and capacitive properties of the modified electrodes, the power density of the sucrose/oxygen enzymatic fuel cells (EFC) reached 0.81 mW cm-2, which is beneficial for a cell composed of a single cathode and anode.

Project description:Temporal changes in circulating insulin concentrations were measured during re-feeding of 18 h-starved lactating rats. Insulin concentrations rose rapidly over the first 20 min of re-feeding with 5 g of chow diet, and then sharply declined between 20-30 min and remained low for the rest of the 90 min experimental period. Lipogenic activity in the mammary gland also exhibited a peak during re-feeding, but there was a clear time lag between the insulin response and the lipogenic response. Blood-flow measurements failed to show any major increase to the tissue during this activation of lipogenesis. Acute suppression of insulin secretion at 30 min (after the initial surge) abolished the switch-on of lipogenesis, suggesting that the insulin-sensitivity of the gland may be acutely enhanced over this period of re-feeding.
