Increased expression and activity of the transcription factor FOXO1 in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
OBJECTIVE Nonalcoholic fatty liver, affecting 34% of the U.S. population, is characterized by hepatic insulin resistance, which is more marked in the presence of steatohepatitis, and frequently precedes hyperglycemia. The molecular mechanisms underlying the relationship between fatty liver and insulin resistance are still undergoing definition and have not been evaluated in humans. Our aim was ...
Decreased glucocorticoid binding has been observed at a time after endotoxin (3 to 6 h) when imparied liver enzyme induction is known to occur. This study was undertaken to characterize the early time course of hypoglycemia and decreased liver phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) activity in intact and adrenalectomized mice given endotoxin. In addition, altered steroid induction of hepatic...
The effect of Mn2+/Mg2+ concentration on the activity of intact, homogeneous phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) from leaves of the C4 grass, Guinea grass (Panicum maximum), have been investigated. Assay conditions were optimized so that PEPCK activity could be measured at concentrations of Mn2+/Mg2+ similar to those found in the cytosol (low micromolar Mn2+ and millimolar Mg2+). PEPCK ac...
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Tecsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459-468). In the present study, we investigated the role of PEPCK in C4 photosynthesis in maize. PEPCK activity and protein were enriched in extracts from bundle-sheath (BS) strands compare...
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is often associated with type 2 diabetes. However, the precise mechanism underlying this association is still unclear. Here, using Huh-7.5 cells either harboring HCV-1b RNA replicons or infected with HCV-2a, we showed that HCV transcriptionally upregulated the genes for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase), the ra...
Increased maternal androgen exposure during pregnancy programmes a polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-like condition, with metabolic dysfunction, in adult female offspring. Other in utero exposures associated with the development of insulin resistance, such as intrauterine growth restriction and exposure to prenatal glucocorticoids, are associated with altered fetal gluconeogenesis. We therefore ...
A cytosolic cell-free system prepared from rat liver was used to study the effect of bivalent cations on the activity of the gluconeogenic enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK). Steady-state concentrations of oxaloacetate in the range 5-50 microM were generated from increasing concentrations of malate+fumarate (10:1); 2 mM ITP and 3 mM Mg2+ were added as cofactors. Micromolar concent...
Udotea flabellum is a marine, macroscopic green alga with C4-like photosynthetic characteristics, including little O2 inhibition of photosynthesis, a low CO2 compensation point, and minimal photorespiration; but it lacks anatomical features analogous to the Kranz compartmentation of C4 plants, and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [PEPC; orthophosphate:oxaloacetate carboxy-lyase (phosphorylating)...
The transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta) is enriched in liver and adipose tissue and controls the expression of a wide variety of genes coding for important metabolic pathways, including gluconeogenesis and lipid synthesis. To investigate the role of C/EBPbeta on glucose homeostasis, we studied mice with a targeted deletion of the gene for C/EBPbeta-/- mice. Adul...
