Glucocorticoids control phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene expression in a tissue specific manner.
Cytosolic Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase is a key gluconeogenic enzyme which is expressed in a tissue specific manner in the liver, kidney and adipose tissue and is under hormonal control. The effect of glucocorticoids on expression of the gene coding for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in adipose tissue has been studied in vivo in rats and in vitro in adipose tissue organ culture and mous...
متن کاملFAT/CD36 regulates PEPCK expression in adipose tissue.
Fatty acid translocase (FAT)/CD36 has been extensively studied for its role in facilitating fatty acid uptake. Recent findings have also demonstrated that this protein regulates adipocyte lipolysis and may modulate fatty acid reesterification. As FAT/CD36 has been shown to control the expression of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation in adipocytes, we reasoned that this protein might also co...
متن کاملRapid Nitration of Adipocyte Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase by Leptin Reduces Glyceroneogenesis and Induces Fatty Acid Release
Fatty acid (FA) release from white adipose tissue (WAT) is the result of the balance between triglyceride breakdown and FA re-esterification. The latter relies on the induction of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C), the key enzyme for glyceroneogenesis. We previously demonstrated that long-term (18 h) leptin treatment of rat epididymal WAT explants reduced glyceroneogenesis t...
متن کاملRegulation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) in adipose tissue in vivo by glucocorticoids and insulin.
1. The regulation of the synthesis of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) (EC 4.1.1.32) in epididymal adipose tissue, liver and kidney in vivo was studied immunochemically. 2. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) synthesis in adipose tissue is increased by starvation, diabetes and noradrenaline, and decreased by re-feeding and insulin. These changes were also seen in adrenalectomized rat...
متن کاملActivation of liver X receptor improves glucose tolerance through coordinate regulation of glucose metabolism in liver and adipose tissue.
The control of lipid and glucose metabolism is closely linked. The nuclear receptors liver X receptor (LXR)alpha and LXR beta have been implicated in gene expression linked to lipid homeostasis; however, their role in glucose metabolism is not clear. We demonstrate here that the synthetic LXR agonist GW3965 improves glucose tolerance in a murine model of diet-induced obesity and insulin resista...
