Project description:Insulin receptor (IR) signaling is central to normal metabolic control and is dysregulated in metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. We report here that IR is incorporated into dynamic clusters at the plasma membrane, in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus of human hepatocytes and adipocytes. Insulin stimulation promotes further incorporation of IR into these dynamic clusters in insulin-sensitive cells but not in insulin-resistant cells, where both IR accumulation and dynamic behavior are reduced. Treatment of insulin-resistant cells with metformin, a first-line drug used to treat type 2 diabetes, can rescue IR accumulation and the dynamic behavior of these clusters. This rescue is associated with metformin's role in reducing reactive oxygen species that interfere with normal dynamics. These results indicate that changes in the physico-mechanical features of IR clusters contribute to insulin resistance and have implications for improved therapeutic approaches.

Project description:There is evidence indicating the involvement of DNA methylation memory in maintaining gene expression patterns associated with insulin resistance. Although the exact mechanism remains unknown, it has been proved that insulin resistance is correlated to low heat shock protein (HSP) expression. We reveal that intranuclear insulin can reduce HSP DNA methylation level to up-regulate HSP protein expression and result in long term cure of hyperglycemia. Insulin resistance HepG2 cell were selected in our experiments.Two conditions were compared with three replicates each. These are:(1) Insulin resistance HepG2(R-HepG2) and (2) Biomineralized insulin treated HepG2 (BI).

Project description:Decidualization of the uterine mucosa drives the maternal adaptation to invasion by the placenta. Appropriate depth of placental invasion is needed to support a healthy pregnancy; shallow invasion is associated with the development of severe preeclampsia (sPE). Maternal contribution to sPE through failed decidualization is an important determinant of placental phenotype. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the in vivo defect linking decidualization to sPE is unknown. Global RNA sequencing was applied to obtain the transcriptomic profile of endometrial biopsies collected from nonpregnant women who suffer sPE in a previous pregnancy and women who did not develop this condition. Samples were randomized in two cohorts, the training and the test set, to identify the fingerprinting encoding defective decidualization in sPE and its subsequent validation. Gene Ontology enrichment and an interaction network were performed to deepen in pathways impaired by genetic dysregulation in sPE. Finally, the main modulators of decidualization, estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor B (PGR-B), were assessed at the level of gene expression and protein abundance. Here, we discover the footprint encoding this decidualization defect comprising 120 genes-using global gene expression profiling in decidua from women who developed sPE in a previous pregnancy. This signature allowed us to effectively segregate samples into sPE and control groups. ESR1 and PGR were highly interconnected with the dynamic network of the defective decidualization fingerprint. ESR1 and PGR-B gene expression and protein abundance were remarkably disrupted in sPE. Thus, the transcriptomic signature of impaired decidualization implicates dysregulated hormonal signaling in the decidual endometria in women who developed sPE. These findings reveal a potential footprint that could be leveraged for a preconception or early prenatal screening of sPE risk, thus improving prevention and early treatments.

Project description:ObjectiveThe present study was undertaken to assess the contribution of inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) to lipid-induced insulin resistance in vivo.Research design and methodsWild-type and iNOS(-/-) mice were infused for 6 h with a 20% intralipid emulsion, during which a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp was performed.ResultsIn wild-type mice, lipid infusion led to elevated basal hepatic glucose production and marked insulin resistance as revealed by impaired suppression of liver glucose production and reduced peripheral glucose disposal (R(d)) during insulin infusion. Liver insulin resistance was associated with a robust induction of hepatic iNOS, reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR) beta, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, and IRS-2 but elevated serine phosphorylation of IRS proteins as well as decreased Akt activation. The expression of gluconeogenic enzymes Pepck and G6Pc was also increased in the liver of wild-type mice. In contrast to their wild-type counterparts, iNOS(-/-) mice were protected from lipid-induced hepatic and peripheral insulin resistance. Moreover, neither the phosphorylation of insulin signaling intermediates nor expression of gluconeogenic enzymes were altered in the lipid-infused iNOS(-/-) mice compared with their saline-infused controls. Importantly, lipid infusion induced tyrosine nitration of IRbeta, IRS-1, IRS-2, and Akt in wild-type mice but not in iNOS(-/-) animals. Furthermore, tyrosine nitration of hepatic Akt by the NO derivative peroxynitrite blunted insulin-induced Akt tyrosine phosphorylation and kinase activity.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrate that iNOS induction is a novel mechanism by which circulating lipids inhibit hepatic insulin action. Our results further suggest that iNOS may cause hepatic insulin resistance through tyrosine nitration of key insulin signaling proteins.

Project description:Classic psychedelic drugs (serotonin 2A, or 5HT2A, receptor agonists) have notable effects on music listening. In the current report, blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal was collected during music listening in 25 healthy adults after administration of placebo, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), and LSD pretreated with the 5HT2A antagonist ketanserin, to investigate the role of 5HT2A receptor signaling in the neural response to the time-varying tonal structure of music. Tonality-tracking analysis of BOLD data revealed that 5HT2A receptor signaling alters the neural response to music in brain regions supporting basic and higher-level musical and auditory processing, and areas involved in memory, emotion, and self-referential processing. This suggests a critical role of 5HT2A receptor signaling in supporting the neural tracking of dynamic tonal structure in music, as well as in supporting the associated increases in emotionality, connectedness, and meaningfulness in response to music that are commonly observed after the administration of LSD and other psychedelics. Together, these findings inform the neuropsychopharmacology of music perception and cognition, meaningful music listening experiences, and altered perception of music during psychedelic experiences.

Project description:Insulin resistance (IR) is likely to induce metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Gluconeogenesis (GNG) is a complex metabolic process that may result in glucose generation from certain non-carbohydrate substrates. Chinese herbal medicine astragalus polysaccharides and berberine have been documented to ameliorate IR, and combined use of astragalus polysaccharide (AP) and berberine (BBR) are reported to synergistically produce an even better effect. However, what change may occur in the GNG signaling pathway of IR-HepG2 cells in this synergistic effect and whether AP-BBR attenuates IR by regulating the GNG signaling pathway remain unclear. For the first time, we discovered in this study that the optimal time of IR-HepG2 cell model formation was 48 hours after insulin intervention. AP-BBR attenuated IR in HepG2 cells and the optimal concentration was 10mg. AP-BBR reduced the intracellular H2O2 content with no significant effect on apoptosis of IR-HepG2 cells. In addition, a rapid change was observed in intracellular calcium current of the IR-HepG2 cell model, and AP-BBR intervention attenuated this change markedly. The gene sequencing results showed that the GNG signaling pathway was one of the signaling pathways of AP-BBR to attenuate IR in IR-Hepg2 cells. The expression of p-FoxO1Ser256 and PEPCK protein was increased and the expression of GLUT2 protein was decreased significantly in the IR-HepG2 cell model, and both of these effects could be reversed by AP-BBR intervention. AP-BBR attenuated IR in IR-HepG2 cells, probably by regulating the GNG signaling Pathway.

Project description:ContextSyndromes of severe insulin resistance (SIR) include insulin receptoropathy, in which all signaling downstream of the insulin receptor is lost, and lipodystrophy, in which some signaling pathways are impaired and others preserved. Women with SIR commonly have ovarian hyperandrogenemia; adrenal-derived 11-oxygenated androgens, produced by CYP11B1, have not been studied.ObjectiveWe aimed to evaluate classic pathway androgens (androstenedione, testosterone) and 11-oxygenated androgens in women with SIR and hyperandrogenemia, and to elucidate the role of insulin receptor signaling for 11-oxygenated androgen production by comparing lipodystrophy and receptoropathy.MethodsSteroid hormones were quantified using LC-MS/MS in a cross-sectional study of 18 women with hyperandrogenemia and SIR (11 lipodystrophy, 7 receptoropathy) and 23 controls. To assess ovarian vs adrenal origin, steroids were compared in receptoropathy patients with (Ovary+) vs without (Ovary-) ovarian function.ResultsCompared with controls, classic androgens were elevated in both lipodystrophy and receptoropathy, and 11-oxygenated androgens were increased in lipodystrophy (2.9-fold higher 11β-hydroxyandrostenedione (11OHA4), 2.4-fold higher 11-ketoandrostenedione (11KA4), 3.6-fold higher 11-ketotestosterone (11KT); P < 0.01), but not receptoropathy. Product-to-precursor ratios for CYP11B1 conversion of androstenedione to 11OHA4 were similar in lipodystrophy and controls but decreased in receptoropathy (6.5-fold lower than control; P = 0.001). Classic androgens were elevated in Ovary + but not Ovary- patients.Conclusions11-Oxygenated androgens are elevated in lipodystrophy but not receptoropathy. In SIR, insulin receptor signaling is necessary for adrenal hyperandrogenemia but not ovarian hyperandrogenemia; excess classic androgens are derived from the ovaries. Insulin receptor signaling increases adrenal 19-carbon steroid production, which may have implications for more common disorders of mild IR.

Project description:Monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) oleic acid (OA) has been reported to reverse saturated fatty acid palmitic acid (PA)-induced hepatic insulin resistance (IR). However, the detailed molecular mechanism remains elusive. In addition, previous research also showed that -3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), exerted opposite effects to PA in muscle IR, but whether it plays the same role in hepatic IR and the possible mechanism involved needs to be further explored. Here, we confirmed that EPA reversed PA-induced IR in HepG2 cells and compared the proteome change after different free fatty acids (FFAs) treatments. For MUFA, 234 proteins were identified as differentially expressed proteins, and their functions were mainly related to response to stress and endogenous stimuli, lipid metabolic process and protein binding. For PUFA, the PA-induced expression change of 1326 proteins could be reversed by EPA and 415 of them were mitochondrial proteins, which covered most of the functional proteins in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). Mechanism study revealed that c-Jun and ROS played a role in OA- and EPA-reversed PA-induced IR, respectively. EPA or OA alleviated PA-induced abnormal ATP production, ROS generation, and calcium content. Importantly, H2O2-activated production of ROS increased the expression of c-Jun, further resulting in IR of HepG2 cells. Besides, we provided more feasible candidates as potential c-Jun-targeted “responders” for FFAs treatments. Taken together, we demonstrated that ROS/c-Jun is a common pathway to different FFAs-regulated IR in HepG2 cells.
