SIK2 phosphorylation in response to glucagon or insulin in murine hepatocytes

ABSTRACT: The phosphorylation state of human HA-tagged-SIK2, adenovirally introduced in murine hepatocytes (C57/BL/6 strain) was analysed in unstimulated and in response to glucagon- or insulin- treated conditions. Background:- LKB1 is a master kinase that regulates metabolism and growth through AMPK and 12 other closely-related kinases. Liver-specific ablation of LKB1 causes increased glucose production in hepatocytes in vitro and hyperglycaemia in fasting mice in vivo. The salt-inducible kinases (SIK1, 2 and 3), members of the AMPK-related kinase family, play a key role as gluconeogenic suppressor downstream of LKB1 in the liver. A selective SIK inhibitor (HG-9-91-01) promotes dephosphorylation of transcriptional co-activators CRTC2/3 resulting in enhanced gluconeogenic gene expression and glucose production in hepatocytes, an effect that is abolished when an HG-9-91-01-insensitive-mutant-SIK is introduced or LKB1 is ablated. Although SIK2 was proposed as a key regulator of insulin-mediated suppression of gluconeogenesis, we provide genetic evidence that liver-specific ablation of SIK2 alone has no effect on gluconeogenesis and insulin does not modulate SIK2 phosphorylation/activity. Collectively, we demonstrate that the LKB1-SIK pathway functions as a key gluconeogenic gatekeeper in the liver.

LKB1 is a master kinase that regulates metabolism and growth through adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and 12 other closely related kinases. Liver-specific ablation of LKB1 causes increased glucose production in hepatocytes in vitro and hyperglycaemia in fasting mice in vivo. Here we report that the salt-inducible kinases (SIK1, 2 and 3), members of the AMPK-related kinase family, play a key role as gluconeogenic suppressors downstream of LKB1 in the liver.

Project description:During fasting, increases in circulating pancreatic glucagon maintain glucose balance by up-regulating hepatic gluconeogenesis. Triggering of the cAMP pathway stimulates the gluconeogenic program through the phosphorylation of CREB and via the de-phosphorylation of the CREB coactivator CRTC2. Hormonal and nutrient signals are also thought to modulate gluconeogenic genes by promoting epigenetic changes that facilitate assembly of the transcriptional machinery, although the nature of these modifications is unclear. Here we show that histone H3 acetylation at Lys 9 (H3K9Ac) is elevated over gluconeogenic genes during fasting and in diabetes, where it contributes to increases in hepatic glucose production. Following its dephosphorylation, CRTC2 promoted increases in H3K9Ac by mediating the recruitment of the lysine acetyltransferase 2B (KAT2B) and WD repeat-containing protein 5 (WDR5), a core subunit of histone methyltransferase (HMT) complexes. In turn, KAT2B and WDR5 stimulated the gluconeogenic program through a self-reinforcing cycle whereby increases in H3K9Ac further potentiated CRTC2 occupancy at CREB binding sites. Breaking this cycle, by depletion of KAT2B or WDR5, decreased gluconeogenic gene expression. As administration of a small molecule KAT2B antagonist lowered circulating blood glucose concentrations in insulin resistance, our results demonstrate how this enzyme may be a useful target for diabetes treatment. A subset of cAMP responsive genes depend on specific recruitment of KAT2B (pcaf), which in concert with WDR5 acetylates H3K9. By selectively depleting hepatocytes for KAT2B or WDR5 prior to glucagon stimulation we explore, which genes rely on KAT2B and WDR5 activity. mKAT2B or mWDR5 were knocked down in primary mouse hepatocytes using adenoviral transduction with appropriate shRNAs. Control cells were transduced with a non-specific (NS) shRNA. 72 hours post transduction some cells were stimulated for 90 minutes with 100nM glucagon and others with PBS. Total RNA was purified and subjected to micro-RNA analysis. All samples are pools of RNA from three sepearate dishes. One replicate is included for most samples.

Project description:The liver is one of most important organs in our bodies. It performs many essential functions including metabolism, synthesis, secretion, detoxification, and storage. Hepatocytes are the principal cell type in the liver and are involved in multiple liver-specific functions. There have been several efforts to develop in vitro culture systems capable of maintaining hepatocyte-specific phenotype over long time periods. In hepatic tissue engineering, two commonly used culture systems are the collagen sandwich and monolayers of cells. ‚àö√á¬¨‚Ä†In this study, genome-wide gene expression profiles of primary hepatocytes were measured over an 8-day period for each cell culture system using Affymetrix GeneChips and analyzed via Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), which is a powerful method to elicit biologically meaningful information from microarray data at the level of gene sets. Results indicate that the gene expression in hepatocytes in collagen sandwich cultures gradually diverges from that in monolayer cultures. Gene sets up-regulated in collagen sandwich cultures include those associated with liver metabolic and synthetic functions. ‚àö√á¬¨‚Ä†These functions are associated with lipid, amino acid, carbohydrate, and alcohol metabolism and bile acid synthesis. Nuclear receptors are up-regulated in collagen sandwiches 24 hours after seeding. Signals transmitted from these receptors may cause the up-regulation of other processes in subsequent days. Cytochrome-P450 monooxygenase expression was initially down-regulated but exhibited up-regulation after 72 hours. Our results provide a baseline for further explorations into the systems biology of engineered liver mimics as well as 2D and 3D co-cultures of primary hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells. To better understand differences in quality of in vitro growth of rat hepatocytes between culture on a monolayer of collagen gel and sandwiched between two layers of gel, we measured gene expression in hepatocytes in these two culture conditions in triplicate for four time points: 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, and 8 days of culturing. Overall, we obtained Affymetrix microarray data for 24 samples, divided to 12 samples from monolayer and double layer cultures each, each of which are divided into four time points with 3 sample replicates.
