Several problems limit quantification of gluconeogenesis. We applied in vitro 2H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to simultaneously measure 2H in all glucose carbons for direct assessment of gluconeogenesis. This method was compared with 2H measurement in carbons 5 and 2 using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (hexamethylenetetramine [HMT]) and with in vivo 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). After 14 h of fasting, and following 2H2O ingestion, blood was obtained from nine healthy and seven type 2 diabetic subjects. Glucose was purified, acetylated, and analyzed for 2H in carbons 1-6 with 2H-NMR. Using 5:2 ratios, gluconeogenesis increased (P , 0.05) over time and mean gluconeogenesis was lower in control subjects than in type 2 diabetic patients (63 ± 3 vs. 75 ± 2%, P , 0.01). 13C-MRS revealed higher hepatic glycogenolysis in control subjects (3.9 ± 0.4 vs. 2.3 ± 0.2 μmol · kg−1 · min−1) yielding mean contribution of gluconeogenesis of 65 ± 3 and 77 ± 2% (P , ...
1. Rat kidney-cortex slices incubated with d-malate alone formed very little glucose. d-Malate, however, augmented gluconeogenesis from l-lactate and inhibited gluconeogenesis from pyruvate and l-malate. 2. d-Malate had little effect on the rate of the tricarboxylic acid cycle with or without other substrates added. 3. d-Malate inhibited the activity of the l-malate dehydrogenase in a high-speed-supernatant fraction from kidney cortex. 4. It was concluded that d-malate inhibited either the operation of the cytoplasmic l-malate dehydrogenase or malate outflow from the mitochondria in the intact kidney-cortex cell. This supports the hypothesis of Lardy, Paetkau & Walter (1965) and Krebs, Gascoyne & Notton (1967) on the role of malate as carrier for carbon and reducing equivalents in gluconeogenesis. 5. Gluconeogenesis from l-lactate in kidney-cortex slices was strongly inhibited by a low concentration (0.1mm) of amino-oxyacetate, whereas glucose formation from pyruvate, malate, aspartate and ...
X. campestris pv. campestris propagates and spreads in the apoplast of the host plant after infection (14, 29). Thus, the ability to acquire nutrients from the apoplast is critically important for it to cause disease. However, the nutritional requirements of X. campestris pv. campestris during infection and the molecular mechanism by which it acquires nutrients from the apoplast are still unclear. The observation that disruption of the gluconeogenic pathway resulted in significant reductions both in multiplication in planta and virulence of X. campestris pv. campestris suggested that the apoplast is lacking hexose but rich in gluconeogenic substrates (C2 or C3 compounds or the intermediates of the TCA cycle), and the gluconeogenic pathway is the only route to utilize these carbon sources to maintain the carbon and energy supplies for normal growth of X. campestris pv. campestris during infection. Furthermore, disruption of the glyoxylate cycle (mutation in aceA or mls) of X. campestris pv. ...
Abstract: Phase alterations in the intensity of gluconeogenesis were observed in 92 rats subjected to hypokinesia within 1-30 days. At early periods of fixation of the animals gluconeogenesis was increased in all the tissues studied; the activation was especially distinct within the first 7 days of the experiment. Intensity of gluconeogenesis was similar to control values within 15 days of hypokinesia and a slight activation was detected within 30 days. Content of glucose was maximal in liver tissue within 3 days but the glycogen level was distinctly decreased in all the periods of experiments except of the 7th day. The pattern of gluconeogenesis in liver tissue as well as content of carbohydrates should be taken into consideration in the course of prophylaxis and treatment of the unfavourable after-effects of hypokinesia ...

Increased hepatic gluconeogenesis and decreased glucose uptake, and increased hepatic de novo lipogenesis in rat model of maternal diabetes., Premila Abraham, Suganthy Rabi, Deepak
The contribution of gluconeogenesis (GNG) to endogenous glucose output (EGO) in type 2 diabetes is controversial. Little information is available on the separate influence of obesity on GNG. We measured percent GNG (by the 2H2O technique) and EGO (by 6,6-[2H]glucose) in 37 type 2 diabetic subjects (9 lean and 28 obese, mean fasting plasma glucose [FPG] 8.3 +/- 0.3 mmol/l) and 18 control subjects (6 lean and 12 obese) after a 15-h fast. Percent GNG averaged 47 +/- 5% in lean control subjects and was significantly increased in association with both obesity (P , 0.01) and diabetes (P = 0.004). By multivariate analysis, percent GNG was independently associated with BMI (partial r = 0.27, P , 0.05, with a predicted increase of 0.9% per BMI unit) and FPG (partial r = 0.44, P = 0.0009, with a predicted increase of 2.7% per mmol/l of FPG). In contrast, EGO was increased in both lean and obese diabetic subjects (15.6 +/- 0.5 micromol x min(-1) x kg(-1) of fat-free mass, n = 37, P = 0.002) but not in ...

Insulin resistance is the cornerstone for the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Free fatty acids (FFAs) cause insulin resistance in muscle and liver and increase hepatic gluconeogenesis and lipoprotein production and perhaps decrease hepatic clearance of insulin. It is suggested that the depressing effect of insulin on circulating FFA concentration is dependent on the fraction derived from visceral adipocytes, which have a low responsiveness to the antilipolytic effect of insulin. Elevated secretion of cortisol and/or testosterone induces insulin resistance in muscle. This also seems to be the case for low testosterone concentrations in men. In addition, cortisol increases hepatic gluconeogenesis. Cortisol and testosterone have permissive effect on adipose lipolysis and therefore amplify lipolytic stimulation; FFA, cortisol, and testosterone thus have powerful combined effects, resulting in insulin resistance and increased hepatic gluconeogenesis. All these ...

Glycolysis is the process of converting glucose into pyruvate and generating small amounts of ATP (energy) and NADH (reducing power). It is a central pathway that produces important precursor metabolites: six-carbon compounds of glucose-6P and fructose-6P and three-carbon compounds of glycerone-P, glyceraldehyde-3P, glycerate-3P, phosphoenolpyruvate, and pyruvate [MD:M00001]. Acetyl-CoA, another important precursor metabolite, is produced by oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate [MD:M00307]. When the enzyme genes of this pathway are examined in completely sequenced genomes, the reaction steps of three-carbon compounds from glycerone-P to pyruvate form a conserved core module [MD:M00002], which is found in almost all organisms and which sometimes contains operon structures in bacterial genomes. Gluconeogenesis is a synthesis pathway of glucose from noncarbohydrate precursors. It is essentially a reversal of glycolysis with minor variations of alternative paths [MD:M00003 ...

Our last post described the evidence that the rate of gluconeogenesis (GNG) is stable under a variety of metabolic conditions. We also described several experiments in which large amounts of protein were ingested or infused and did not increase the rate. We concluded that eating more protein than your body needs probably doesnt increase GNG. Many of our readers expressed confusion about the implications of this finding, and our purpose in posting it. The reason we investigated this was to address the following concern. One of the reasons keto dieters want to minimize the amount of carbohydrate they eat is so that their bodies dont have to deal with excess glucose in the blood. Whenever we ingest carbohydrate, it becomes sugar in the blood ¹. Since blood sugar must be kept within a narrow range for safety ², eating carbs then causes the body to release insulin in order to draw sugar quickly and safely out of the blood and into storage (as fat tissue) ³. In our opinion, the ideal situation is ...
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and disturbed metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins that occurs due damaged insulin secretion or disorder in insulin signal pathways. Liver has the essential role in maintenance adequate glucose concentration in blood. Glucose metabolism in liver is regulated by hormones which effect enzyme activity or enzyme synthesis. Depending on the metabolic needs, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are exchanged. Regulating the essential enzymes of these processes is important to maintain glucose concentration within reference range. In diabetes mellitus, gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis in liver cells are increased. On the other hand, activity of glycolytic and glycogenesis enzymes is decreased. The aim of this study was to examine the rate of glycolysis in tumor HepG2 cells in hyperglycemic conditions. HepG2 cells were treated with four different glucose concentrations (5 mM, 20 mM, 30 mM and 50 mM) and such treated ...
Different conditions are catabolic of prolonged fasting after 12-16 hours, in which the reserves of hepatic glycogen are exhausted: the process of gluconeogenesis becomes dominant, for which the glucose must be derived from the conversion of other molecules that are not glucidiche, which, as mentioned, are lactate, glycerol and amino acids arising from breakdown of skeletal muscle (muscle catabolism). It is at this stage that the slow acting counter-regulators such as GH and cortisol intervene. cortisol stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis as well as lipolysis, resulting in increased levels of free fatty acids and glycerol, and also causes muscle catabolism GH has similar effects on lipolysis and gluconeogenesis, while simultaneously suppresses peripheral glucose utilisation.. Now that we have a general picture of the physiology, it seems clear that practicing aerobic activity, fasting is an extremely effective method for losing fat mass; however, is missing an essential element!. The physiology ...
Author Summary Previous genome-wide association studies revealed that TCF7L2 is a strong candidate for a type 2 diabetes gene. However, the direct involvement of TCF7L2 on hepatic glucose metabolism has been elusive to date. Here we show that TCF7L2 is critical in mediating transcriptional control of hepatic glucose production. We found that hepatic expression of nuclear isoforms of TCF7L2 was reduced in mouse models of insulin resistance. Acute depletion of TCF7L2 in the liver promoted glucose intolerance and up-regulation of gluconeogenic genes, while ectopic expression of TCF7L2 in DIO mice improved glucose tolerance. TCF7L2 was shown to bind to the gluconeogenic promoters, thereby interfering with the promoter occupancies of both CREB/CRTC2 and FoxO1 on their cognate sites. Furthermore, TCF7L2 haploinsufficiency promoted higher glucose levels with impaired glucose tolerance and increased hepatic glucose production in mice, and adenovirus-mediated TCF7L2 expression in the liver reversed the phenotype
glucose concentrations are normally maintained within a relatively narrow range, roughly 70-110 mg/dL (3.9-6.1 mmol/L) in the fasting state with transient higher excursions after a meal, despite wide variations in exogenous glucose delivery from meals and in endogenous glucose utilization by, for example, exercising muscle. Between meals and during fasting, plasma glucose levels are maintained by endogenous glucose production, hepatic glycogenolysis, and hepatic (and renal) gluconeogenesis (Fig. 345-1). Although hepatic glycogen stores are usually sufficient to maintain plasma glucose levels for approximately 8 h, this time period can be shorter if glucose demand is increased by exercise or if glycogen stores are depleted by illness or starvation. ...
CTRP3 (C1qTNF-related protein 3) plays an important role in regulating both embryonic cartilage development and postnatal longitudinal bone growth. CTRP3 stimulation leads to ERK1/2-dependent cell proliferation in human osteosarcoma cell lines. Circulating CTRP3 levels correlate inversely with circulating leptin levels in mice. Administration of sufficient recombinant CTRP3 suppressed hepatic glucose output via inhibition of gluconeogenesis and lowered blood glucose levels in both normal and ob/ob mice. Visceral adipocytes or monocytes secrete CTRP3 that antagonizes lipopolysaccharide (LPS) via a physical interaction with the TLR4/MD-2 receptor complex. These CTRP3 associated metabolically beneficial or anti-inflammatory features make CTRP3 to an interesting biomarker. ...
Livers role in glucose production. The liver plays an important role in gluconeogenesis the production of glucose (from non-sugar source) in response to need, as when you fast. It keeps glucose levels in balance increasing the levels when needed and turning off that spigot when you eat and the levels of glucose increase.. Ninety percent of endogenous (within the body) glucose production is in the liver, said Louet. He and his colleagues showed that mice that lack SRC-1 have hypoglycemia (too little sugar in their blood) when they have just eaten and when they are fasting.. Without SRC-1, glucose production is impaired in the animals, he said. When he and his colleagues restored the SRC-1 to the liver tissues in the animal, glucose levels in the blood became normal.. In collaboration with members of the laboratory of Dr. Christopher B. Newgard (another senior author of the report) at Duke, the team used metabolomics to see what was happening in the tissue and blood from the mice that ...
Hepatic glucose release into the circulation is vital for brain function and survival during periods of fasting and is modulated by an array of hormones that precisely regulate plasma glucose levels. We have identified a fasting-induced protein hormone that modulates hepatic glucose release. It is the C-terminal cleavage product of profibrillin, and we name it Asprosin. Asprosin is secreted by white adipose, circulates at nanomolar levels, and is recruited to the liver, where it activates the G protein-cAMP-PKA pathway, resulting in rapid glucose release into the circulation. Humans and mice with insulin resistance show pathologically elevated plasma asprosin, and its loss of function via immunologic or genetic means has a profound glucose- and insulin-lowering effect secondary to reduced hepatic glucose release. Asprosin represents a glucogenic protein hormone, and therapeutically targeting it may be beneficial in type II diabetes and metabolic syndrome. ...
Instead of accumulating inside the muscle cells, lactate produced by anaerobic fermentation is taken up by the liver. This initiates the other half of the Cori cycle. In the liver, gluconeogenesis occurs. From an intuitive perspective, gluconeogenesis reverses both glycolysis and fermentation by converting lactate first into pyruvate, and finally back to glucose. The glucose is then supplied to the muscles through the bloodstream; it is ready to be fed into further glycolysis reactions. If muscle activity has stopped, the glucose is used to replenish the supplies of glycogen through glycogenesis.[2 ...
Background: Bariatric surgeries are the most effective treatments for successful and sustained weight loss but individuals vary in treatment response. Understanding the neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms accounting for this variation could lead to the development of personalized therapeutic approaches and improve treatment outcomes. The primary objectives were to investigate changes in taste preferences and taste-induced brain responses after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) and to identify potential taste-related predictors of weight loss. Methods: Women, ages 18 to 55, with a body mass index ≥ 35 kg/m2 and approved for bariatric surgery at the Johns Hopkins Center for Bariatric Surgery were recruited for participation. Demographics, anthropometrics, liking ratings, and neural responses to varying concentrations of sucrose+fat mixtures were assessed pre- and post-surgery via visual analogue scales and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Results: ...
Although various research studies propose different ways how it works, the mechanism of action of metformin is still not well understood. Following are the best-known mechanisms to date. Metformin acts on the liver to improve blood glucose levels. Several studies provide evidence that metformin plays a role in reducing hepatic gluconeogenesis (synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources) and increasing insulin sensitivity. Gluconeogenesis is an energy-requiring process, consuming six ATPs per molecule of the glucose synthesized. Hepatocytes (liver cells) need to balance the demand for ATP which is primarily provided by the mitochondria (the powerhouse of the cell). Metformin accumulates within mitochondria up to 1000-fold higher than in the extracellular medium. It is because metformin carries a positive charge which drives metformin into the cell and subsequently into the mitochondria. Within the mitochondria, metformin inhibits the Complex I of the respiratory chain which suppresses ATP ...
Glucagon secretion by pancreatic α-cells is triggered by hypoglycemia and suppressed by high glucose levels; impaired suppression of glucagon secretion is a hallmark of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Here, we show that α-cell glucokinase (Gck) plays a role in the control of glucagon secretion. Using mice with α-cell-specific inactivation of Gck (αGckKO mice), we find that glucokinase is required for the glucose-dependent increase in intracellular ATP/ADP ratio and the closure of KATP channels in α-cells and the suppression of glucagon secretion at euglycemic and hyperglycemic levels. αGckKO mice display hyperglucagonemia in the fed state, which is associated with increased hepatic gluconeogenic gene expression and hepatic glucose output capacity. In adult mice, fed hyperglucagonemia is further increased and glucose intolerance develops. Thus, glucokinase governs an α-cell metabolic pathway that suppresses secretion at or above normoglycemic levels; abnormal suppression of glucagon secretion
Dibutyryl cyclic AMP stimulated the activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in perfused livers of rats, fed on a low-protein diet, linearly over a 6h period. The enzyme activity was also significantly elevated by dexamethasone, the effect being considerably lower than that of the cyclic nucleotide. Since the time-course of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase activity in response to dibutyryl cyclic AMP resembled that observed after dibutyryl cyclic AMP injection into intact animals, it is suggested that induction of the enzyme in vivo is due to a direct action of the cyclic nucleotide on the liver. Combined administration of dibutyryl cyclic AMP and glucocorticoids did not lead to an additive increase of liver phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase activity, either in vivo or in the perfused organ.. ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Degradation of the gluconeogenic enzyme fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase is dependent on the vacuolar ATPase.. AU - Liu, Jingjing. AU - Brown, C. Randell. AU - Chiang, Hui-ling. PY - 2005/1/1. Y1 - 2005/1/1. N2 - The key gluconeogenic enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) is induced during glucose starvation. After the addition of glucose, inactivated FBPase is selectively targeted to Vid (vacuolar import and degradation) vesicles and then to the vacuole for degradation. To identify proteins involved in this pathway, we screened various libraries for mutants that failed to degrade FBPase. Via these approaches, subunits of the vacuolar- H+ -ATPase (V-ATPase) have been identified repeatedly. The V-ATPase has established roles in endocytosis, sorting of carboxypeptidase Y and homotypic vacuole fusion. Here, we show that mutants lacking Stv1p, Vph1p, and other subunits of the V-ATPase are defective for FBPase degradation. FBPase was detected in Vid vesicles. However, most FBPase ...
Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase is important in regulation of gluconeogenesis & glycolysis as it catalyzes the dephosphorylation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. Because fructose-2,6-bisphosphate activates phosphofructokinase-1 (a critical enzyme in glycolysis) and inhibits fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (a critical enzyme in gluconeogenesis), the activity of fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase decreases glycolysis and increases gluconeogenesis. Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase is subject to product inhibition by fructose-6-phosphate. Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase also undergoes addition of a phosphate group to a single serine residue by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (known as covalent modification), which activates (increases catalytic activity) of Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase. ...

Gluconeogenesis plays an integral role in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis in humans, contributing about one-third of glucose produced in the postabsorptive state and all glucose produced when hepatic glycogen is depleted by starvation (6, 23-25). Because the results of in vivo experiments in humans and animals (12-15, 20) and in vitro perfused rat liver studies (11, 27) have demonstrated a close correlation between the rate of glucose production and the flux of gluconeogenic substrates, it is believed that gluconeogenic precursor supply plays a major role in the regulation of glucose production (12,13,20). Several studies in vivo support this concept. For example, we and others have demonstrated that the hyperglycemic response to severe burn injury and sepsis is a direct result of an increased rate of glucose production, which is associated with a concomitant increase in the fluxes of alanine and lactate, major gluconeogenic substrates (15, 39). The proposed regulatory role of precursor ...
Koide, S., Oshima, M., Takubo, K. et al.. Setdb1, also known as Eset, is a methyltransferase that catalyzes trimethylation of H3K9 (H3K9me3) and plays an essential role in the silencing of endogenous retroviral elements (ERVs) in the developing embryo and embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Its role in somatic stem cells, however, remains unclear due to the early death of Setdb1-deficient embryos. We herein demonstrate that Setdb1 is the first H3K9 methyltransferase shown to be essential for the maintenance of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in mice. The deletion of Setdb1 caused the rapid depletion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) as well as leukemic stem cells. In contrast to ESCs, ERVs were largely repressed in Setdb1-deficient HSPCs. A list of non-hematopoietic genes was instead ectopically activated in HSPCs following reductions in H3K9me3 levels, including key gluconeogenic enzyme genes, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase 1 (Fbp1) and Fbp2. The ectopic activation of ...

FynKO mice also display fasting hypoglycaemia despite decreased insulin levels, which suggested that hepatic glucose production was unable to compensate for the increased basal glucose utilization. The present study investigates the basis for the reduction in plasma glucose levels and the reduced ability for the liver to produce glucose in response to gluconeogenic substrates. FynKO mice had a 5-fold reduction in phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene and protein expression and a marked reduction in ...

Neural top-down control of physiology concerns the direct regulation by the brain of physiological functions (in addition to smooth muscle and glandular ones). Cellular functions include the immune systems production of T-lymphocytes and antibodies, and nonimmune related homeostatic functions such as liver gluconeogenesis, sodium reabsorption, osmoregulation, and brown adipose tissue nonshivering thermogenesis. This regulation occurs through the sympathetic and parasympathetic system (the autonomic nervous system), and their direct innervation of body organs and tissues that starts in the brainstem. There is also a noninnervation hormonal control through the hypothalamus and pituitary (HPA). These lower brain areas are under control of cerebral cortex ones. Such cortical regulation differs between its left and right sides. Pavlovian conditioning shows that brain control over basic cell level physiological function can be learnt. Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and the ...
Glycine N-methyltransferase deficiency in female mice impairs insulin signaling and promotes gluconeogenesis by modulating the PI3K/Akt pathway in the liver
Learn what gluconeogenesis is, its negative effects on the body while in ketosis and what to do to avoid them to maintain a healthy ketogenic diet.
Normal fasting adaptation involves 5 major systems: 4 metabolic systems (hepatic gluconeogenesis, hepatic glycogenolysis, adipose tissue lipolysis, and oxidation of fatty acids for hepatic ketogenesis), as well as the hormonal system that regulates these metabolic systems. Within 2 to 3 hours of a meal, when intestinal absorption of glucose ceases, hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis produce glucose to meet the requirement for brain glucose oxidation and to prevent a decline in blood glucose concentrations. Prolonged fasting of 8 to 12 hours or more depletes glucose and glycogen stores, and adipose tissue lipolysis is activated to provide fatty acids used by muscle and for ketogenesis by the liver. In young children fatty acids become the main fuel source for most of the body after 12 to 24 hours of fasting. Glucose is spared for use by the brain. Ketones become a major fuel for the brain to further spare glucose utilization. The changing serum levels of these fuels obtained during ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Dual role of the coactivator TORC2 in modulating hepatic glucose output and insulin signaling. AU - Canettieri, Gianluca. AU - Koo, Seung-Hoi. AU - Berdeaux, Rebecca. AU - Heredia, Jose. AU - Hedrick, Susan. AU - Zhang, Xinmin. AU - Montminy, Marc. PY - 2005/11/1. Y1 - 2005/11/1. N2 - Under fasting conditions, the cAMP-responsive CREB coactivator TORC2 promotes glucose homeostasis by stimulating the gluconeogenic program in liver. Following its nuclear translocation in response to elevations in circulating glucagon, TORC2 regulates hepatic gene expression via an association with CREB on relevant promoters. Here, we show that, in parallel with their effects on glucose output, CREB and TORC2 also enhance insulin signaling in liver by stimulating expression of the insulin receptor substrate 2 (IRS2) gene. The induction of hepatic IRS2 during fasting appears critical for glucose homeostasis; knockdown of hepatic IRS2 expression leads to glucose intolerance, whereas hepatic IRS2 ...
Defective hepatic glucose metabolism contributes to the pathogenesis of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). However, the precise mechanism(s) responsible have not been fully elucidated. We aimed to combine stable isotope methodology and metabolomic approaches to define the biochemical events underlying aberrant hepatic glucose metabolism under fasting and post-prandial conditions in high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice. Mice fed a HFD fed displayed fasting hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia, yet endogenous glucose production (EGP) was normal. However, using 2H2O labelling, we detected that the sources of EGP were altered in HFD mice such that rates of gluconeogenesis were reduced while glycogenolysis was increased. To characterise the defects responsible for hyperglycaemia under post-prandial conditions, stable isotope labelled oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) were performed. During the OGTT EGP was modestly and transiently suppressed (↓15% at 30 min). Interestingly, the pattern of EGP suppression ...
The action of glucose and of insulin on hepatic glucose production and metabolism has been studied in fed anaesthetized rats during hyperinsulinaemic clamp combined with various steady state levels of glycaemia (6.8 +/- 0.1, 9.3 +/- 0.1, 11.8 +/- 0.1
Improving the control of energy homeostasis can lower cardiovascular risk in metabolically compromised individuals. To identify new regulators of whole-body energy control, we conducted a high-throughput screen in transgenic reporter zebrafish for small molecules that modulate the expression of the fasting-inducible gluconeogenic gene pck1. We show that this in vivo strategy identified several drugs that affect gluconeogenesis in humans as well as metabolically uncharacterized compounds. Most notably, we find that the translocator protein ligands PK 11195 and Ro5-4864 are glucose-lowering agents despite a strong inductive effect on pck1 expression. We show that these drugs are activators of a fasting-like energy state and, notably, that they protect high-fat diet-induced obese mice from hepatosteatosis and glucose intolerance, two pathological manifestations of metabolic dysregulation. Thus, using a whole-organism screening strategy, this study has identified new small-molecule activators of ...

Metabolism is a highly integrated process that is coordinately regulated between tissues and within individual cells. FoxO proteins are major targets of insulin action and contribute to the regulation of gluconeogenesis, glycolysis, and lipogenesis in the liver. However, the mechanisms by which FoxO proteins exert these diverse effects in an integrated fashion remain poorly understood. We report that FoxO proteins also exert important effects on intrahepatic lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation via the regulation of adipose triacylglycerol lipase (ATGL), which mediates the first step in lipolysis, and its inhibitor, the G0/S1 switch 2 gene (G0S2). We also find that ATGL-dependent lipolysis plays a critical role in mediating diverse effects of FoxO proteins in the liver, including effects on gluconeogenic, glycolytic, and lipogenic gene expression and metabolism. These results indicate that intrahepatic lipolysis plays a critical role in mediating and integrating the regulation of glucose and lipid ...
Introduction/rationale: Current anti-diabetic drug treatments have a variety of adverse side effects. Identifying functional foods with anti-diabetic properties may be the key to preventing and managing T2DM while minimizing side effects. Studies found that Pck-1 gene is often down-regulated by anti-diabetic drugs, as its enzyme is responsible for catalyzing the rate-limiting step of gluconeogenesis. In our study, we screened for functional foods that can down-regulate the expression of the Pck-1 gene. The newly emerged zebrafish (Danio rerio) is aptly suited for in vivo nutrigenomic screening due to its large clutch size and conservation of molecular pathways with humans, including those involved in glucose regulation.. Methods: We exposed zebrafish larve (Tg(Pck-1:luc), a luminescent reporter line for Pck-1), at 4 days post fertilization (dpf) to extracts from forty functional fruits and vegetables. The level of Pck-1 expression was quantified by luminescence at 6 dpf. Extracts which resulted ...
Treatment with the 34 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist, 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazinium iodide (DMPP), improves glucose tolerance in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice, but the physiological and molecular mechanisms are unknown.DMPP (10mg/kg body weight, s.c.) was administered either in a single injection (acute) or daily for up to 14days (chronic) in DIO wild-type (WT) and Chrnb4 knockout (KO) mice and glucose tolerance, tissue-specific tracer-based glucose metabolism, and insulin signalling were assessed.In WT mice, but not in Chrnb4 KO mice, single acute treatment with DMPP induced transient hyperglycaemia, which was accompanied by high plasma adrenaline (epinephrine) levels, upregulated hepatic gluconeogenic genes, and decreased hepatic glycogen content. In contrast to these acute effects, chronic DMPP treatment in WT mice elicited improvements in glucose tolerance already evident after three consecutive days of DMPP treatment. After seven days of DMPP treatment, glucose ...
In starvation, glycerol is released from adipose tissue and serves as an important precursor for hepatic gluconeogenesis. By unknown gender-specific mechanisms, women suppress the endogenous glucose production better than men and respond to metabolic stress with higher plasma glycerol levels. Hepatic glycerol uptake is facilitated by aquaporin-9 (AQP9), a broad-selectivity neutral solute channel, and represents an insulin-regulated step in supplying gluconeogenesis with glycerol. In the current study, hepatic AQP9 abundance was increased 2.6-fold in starved male rats as assessed by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. By contrast, starvation had no significant effect on hepatic AQP9 expression in female rats. Coordinately, plasma glycerol levels remained unchanged upon starvation in male rats whereas it was increased in female rats. The different responses to starvation were paralleled by higher glycerol permeability in basolateral hepatocyte membranes from starved male rats as compared to ...
WHAT DOES BIOTIN DO FOR US ?. 1. Carboxyle enzymes:. - The first one, Acetyl-CoA carboxylase, starts the process for creating fatty acids. Most of us want beautiful shiny hair and strong healthy fingernails. Biotin is involved in the creation of fatty acids. One group of fatty acids called phospholipids is a necessary part of the structure of cell membranes including those which make up our hair and nails.. - The second one, Pyruvate carboxylase is critical for the process called gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis is the process which creates glucose out of fats and amino acids to use for energy when the body cant get it from carbohydrates. Those low or no carb diets weve all heard about or perhaps have tried, start the process of gluconeogenesis. The fat stores in our bodies and unfortunately some of the proteins we eat are used for energy instead of the carbohydrates we would ordinarily consume.. - The third one, Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase is used in the creation of energy from the ...
Glucagon is conventionally regarded as a counterregulatory hormone for insulin and plays a critical anti-hypoglycemic role by maintaining glucose homeostasis in both animals and humans. To increase blood glucose, glucagon promotes hepatic glucose output by increasing glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis and by decreasing glycogenesis and glycolysis in a concerted fashion via multiple mechanisms. Glucagon also stimulates hepatic mitochondrial beta-oxidation to supply energy for glucose production. Glucagon performs its main effect via activation of adenylate cyclase. The adenylate-cyclase-derived cAMP activates protein kinase A (PKA), which then phosphorylates downstream targets, such as cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and the bifunctional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/ fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (one of the isoforms being PFK/FBPase 1, encoded by PFKFB1 ...
Glycemia in type 2 diabetes is characterized by a nonsteady but stable diurnal cycle. This leads to morning fasting hyperglycemia. It arises from an underlying circadian pattern in endogenous glucose production because the metabolic clearance rate of glucose is decreased but constant. Therefore, it is important to use appropriate nonsteady tracer methods to measure this rate even under basal conditions. Postprandially, in diabetes, the endogenous glucose production continues to decrease, with only minor deviations from the slope of the basal curve. This suggests a decoupling of endogenous glucose production from the regulatory factors (insulin, glucose) that prevail under normal circumstances. As the duration of diabetes increases, metabolic clearance of glucose continues to deteriorate. This may be partially compensated by a decrease in glucose production. This rate remains, however, inappropriate because its impact on glycemia does not decline. ...
In Jason Fungs The Complete Guide to Fasting, he outlines what happens to our bodies as we begin an extended fast.. Stage 1: Feeding - We eat, and our blood sugar level goes up. The pancreas releases insulin to move glucose into cells to maintain blood sugar levels; Excess glucose is stored in the liver as glycogen or converted to fat.. Stage 2: Postabsorptive Phase - Six to 24 hours after your fast begins, your blood sugar and insulin start falling. At this point the liver taps into our glycogen stores to release glucose. We have enough glycogen to last 24-36 hours.. Stage 3: Gluconeogenesis - 24-48 hours after fasting starts, our bodies have run out of glycogen. Your liver begins gluconeogenesis, the process of creating new glucose from amino acids. This is the time where I find myself getting irritable, hungry and feel like Im freezing.. Stage 4: Ketosis - 24-72 hours after fasting starts, your body switches to its secondary energy source (ketones, baby!). Lipolysis, the breakdown of fat ...
Wool and hair follicles have high requirements for energy and amino acids to maintain their very high rate of cell division and protein synthesis and yet skin (and therefore the follicles) receives a highly variable supply of blood and oxygen. The skin and follicles have therefore developed some interesting features of energy metabolism to cope with this variation. The major energy substrates are glucose and glutamine. Glucose is metabolised by aerobic and anaerobic pathways, whereas glutamine is metabolised by glutaminolysis. There is also a store of glycogen in the outer root sheath. Glycogen is synthesised in the skin via two pathways; traditionally with glucose-6-phosphate as a precursor and de novo from lactate in a process called gluconeogenesis. Investigations of gluconeogenesis have been restricted to the demonstration of the enzymes and functional pathway. Glycogen is degraded in the skin to glucose-6-phosphate, a substrate available to the glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways. The ...
Transcriptional repressor which binds to the consensus sequence 5-GGTGTG-3. Plays a role in the regulation of the circadian clock; binds to the GC box sequence in the promoter of the core clock component ARTNL/BMAL1 and represses its transcriptional activity. Regulates the circadian expression of genes involved in lipogenesis, gluconeogenesis, and glycolysis in the liver. Represses the expression of PCK2, a rate-limiting step enzyme of gluconeogenesis (By similarity). May play a role in the cell cycle regulation.

In the current study, we showed that in patients with AMI, low plasma adiponectin was associated independently with increased risk of developing T2DM in a linear dose-response relationship. Even in patients with low glucose, adiponectin still added significantly to the prognostic value, as the risk of developing T2DM was higher in patients with low adiponectin/low glucose compared with patients with high adiponectin/low glucose. However, the risk increased by ∼10-fold in patients who were characterized by the combination of low adiponectin and high blood glucose.. Low plasma adiponectin has been suggested to be causally involved in pathways leading to T2DM. The binding of adiponectin to its receptors (adiR1/R2) directly suppresses hepatic gluconeogenesis and stimulates fatty acid oxidation in liver and muscle, glucose uptake in skeletal muscle, and insulin secretion (1,10).. In a study of 335 cases of incident T2DM from the Whitehall II study, adiponectin was measured three times per ...

PhosphoEnol Pyruvate Carboxy Kinase (PEPCK) catalyzes the GTP dependent conversion of oxaloacetate to CO2 and phospo enol pyruvate, which is subsequently converted to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, which then serves as precursor for both gluconeogenesis and/or glyceroneogenesis. Using the mouse gene for the cytoplasmic form of PEPCK-Cmus linked to the skeletal muscle actin promoter, PEPCK-Cmus transgenic mice (TG) were engineered on an SJL/B6 background. The PEPCK-Cmus transgenic mice bear 4 allelic copies of PEPCK; they show a nine-fold overexpression of PEPCK in skeletal muscle associated with an increase in muscle glyceroneogenesis and a 4 fold greater concentration of triglycerides per gram muscle compared with controls. The PEPCK-Cmus TG mice have a remarkable behavioral phenotype of significantly increased and spontaneous exercise, evident from 10 days of age and continuing throughout their extended lifespan. In their home cages, the TG mice show more spontaneous activity, including rearing ...
Phosphoenolpyruvate (2-phosphoenolpyruvate, PEP) is the ester derived from the enol of pyruvate and phosphate. It exists as an anion. PEP is an important intermediate in biochemistry. It has the highest-energy phosphate bond found (−61.9 kJ/mol) in organisms, and is involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. In plants, it is also involved in the biosynthesis of various aromatic compounds, and in carbon fixation; in bacteria, it is also used as the source of energy for the phosphotransferase system.[1][2] ...

Although it has high therapeutic efficacy, some proportion of the tumor cells that survive after radiotherapy may cause side effects. In this study, we found that fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase 1 (FBP1), a rate-limiting enzyme in gluconeogenesis, was downregulated upon treatment with ionizing radiation (IR). Ets1, which was found to be overexpressed in IR-induced infiltrating GBM, was suggested to be a transcriptional repressor of FBP1. Furthermore, glucose uptake and extracellular acidification rates were increased upon FBP1 downregulation, which indicated an elevated glycolysis ...
Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by increase levels of glucose in the blood, termed as (hyperglycemia) which means hyper (elevated) glyco or glucose (sugar) and emia (blood) elevated sugar in the blood. It results from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. Normally a certain amount of sugar circulates in the blood, around 70-120 mg/dl. The major sources of this glucose are absorption of ingested food in the gastrointestinal tract and formation glucose by the liver from the food substances termed as (gluconeogenesis) gluco (sugar) neo (new) and genesis (formation ...
When you eat fat, you are eating another animals fat (or a plants fat) this doesnt become your fat. You digest the fat by the action of lipase enzymes, that becomes tryglycerol and fatty acids, which becomes glycerol, which becomes pyruvate and then gluconeogenesis causes it to become glucose. This enters the blood, your blood sugar spikes.. These products are broken down by various chemical reactions in the stomach/intestines, enter the blood, when blood sugar spikes after a meal insulin release tells the body to start taking glucose from the blood - the muscles, liver and fat cells then take this from the blood and store it.. When your body uses energy during exercise, it uses the energy already in the muscles first and when the energy in the muscles depletes then that comes from the blood. Which causes the energy in the blood to drop, which then causes the release of glucagon, which has the opposite effect of insulin and pulls energy from the stores of energy in other parts of the ...
The liver collects excess sugars from the blood and safely stores the sugars as starches, until needed. If the blood sugar drops, the stored sugars are allowed out of storage and back into the bloodstream (glycogenesis). This often happens at night when signaling from the pancreas may tell the liver that energy (sugars) is too low. The cells of the body and brain rely on food being broken down into specific sugars to be burned as energy. If there isnt enough fuel to burn, then the brain is sluggish (low blood sugar) and the body is forced into extreme measures to get enough energy for functioning. If metabolic functioning becomes deranged then too much of these sugars can be released which causes blood sugar resistance and then high blood sugar.. The liver breaks down fats and protein into glucose (sugars) and fat and protein digestion are how we maintain the most constant fuel for cells. This process is called gluconeogenesis. Some of these proteins help with blood clotting, and help with ...

Diets like this put your body into a ketogenic state. Ketogenic is just fancy-talk for tricking your body into thinking you are starving to death so it eats up every available energy source you have stored away. Once the carbs are all gone, all thats left are fats and when they are all gone, protein. A process called gluconeogenesis converts fats and protein into keytone bodies that are carbohydrate-like and can be used as energy. But, you might think, if you are using protein for energy, how can you build muscle like all those d-bags say they do on the P90x commercial? You cant. Everybody has abs. Some people have more fat blocking the view than others. If you are starving, and your body eats all your fat as a means of simply surviving in a fasted state, you will magically have abs. You will also magically be closer to death. If the claims are true, and these high intensity workouts are burning 1,000 calories, which they very well could be, then that would only leave 800 calories to get ...
