MicroRNA-1 Regulates Metabolic Flexibility in Skeletal Muscle via Pyruvate Metabolism

ABSTRACT: MicroRNA-1 (miR-1) is the most abundant miRNA in adult skeletal muscle. To determine the function of miR-1 in adult skeletal muscle, we generated an inducible, skeletal muscle-specific miR-1 knockout (KO) mouse. Integration of RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data from miR-1 KO muscle with Argonaute 2 enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation sequencing (AGO2 eCLIP-seq) from human skeletal muscle identified miR-1 target genes involved with glycolysis and pyruvate metabolism. The loss of miR-1 in skeletal muscle induced cancer-like metabolic reprogramming, as shown by higher pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme M2 (PKM2) protein levels, which promoted glycolysis. Comprehensive bioenergetic and metabolic phenotyping combined with skeletal muscle proteomics and metabolomics further demonstrated that miR-1 KO induced metabolic inflexibility as a result of pyruvate oxidation resistance. While the genetic loss of miR-1 reduced endurance exercise performance in mice and in C. elegans, the physiological down-regulation of miR-1 expression in response to a hypertrophic stimulus in both humans and mice may cause a similar metabolic reprogramming that supports muscle cell growth. Taken together, these data identify a novel post-translational mechanism of adult skeletal muscle metabolism regulation mediated by miR-1.

Project description:Background and aim: Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) isoforms catalyze an enzymatic reaction that removes diacylglycerol (DAG) and thereby terminates protein kinase C (PKC) signaling by converting DAG to phosphatidic acid (PA). We have reported that downregulation of DGKδ (type II isozyme) causes peripheral insulin resistance, metabolic inflexibility, and obesity. Our aim was to determine whether overexpression of DGKδ protects against the development of metabolic impairments and obesity. Methods: We generated a transgenic mouse model overexpressing the human DGKδ2 isoform under the myosin light change promoter (DGKδ TG). We performed deep metabolic phenotyping of DGKδ TG and wild-type mice fed chow or high-fat diet. Mice were also given free access to running wheels to examine the effects of DGKδ overexpression on exercise-induced metabolic outcomes. Results: DGKδ TG mice were leaner than wild-type littermates, with improved glucose tolerance, increased glycogen storage in skeletal muscle, and enhanced glucose uptake in white adipose tissue. Moreover, DGKδ TG mice were protected against high fat diet (HFD)-induced glucose intolerance and obesity. DGKδ TG mice had reduced epididymal fat pad weight, and enhanced lipolysis. Strikingly, DGKδ overexpression recapitulates the beneficial effects exercise on metabolic outcomes. DGKδ overexpression and exercise have a synergistic effect on body weight reduction. Microarray analysis of skeletal muscle confirmed an overlap between genes associated with exercise and DGKδ overexpression. Gene ontology signatures of exercise and DGKδ overexpression were related to lipid storage, extracellular matrix, and glycogen biosynthesis pathways. Conclusion: We identify a role for DGKδ in glucose and energy homeostasis. Overexpression of DGKδ induces adaptive changes in both skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, resulting in protection against high fat diet-induced obesity. DGKδ overexpression recapitulates exercise-induced adaptations on energy homeostasis and skeletal muscle gene expression profiles.
