The binding of the adaptor protein APPL1 to adiponectin receptors is necessary for adiponectin-induced AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) activation in muscle, yet underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown. Here we show that muscle cells and metformin induce AMPK by promoting APPL1-dependent LKB1 cytosolic translocation. mediates signaling directly interacting with enhances localization anchoring this cytosol. Adiponectin also activates another upstream Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent activating...

Impairments in adiponectin multimerization lead to defects secretion and function are associated with diabetes, yet the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. We have identified an adiponectin-interacting protein, previously named GST-kappa, by yeast 2-hybrid screening. The protein contains 2 thioredoxin domains has very little sequence similarity other GST isoforms. However, this shares high secondary structure homology bacterial disulfide-bond A oxidoreductase (DsbA) is thus renamed...

Resveratrol (RSV) is a naturally occurring polyphenol that has been found to exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. However, how RSV exerts its beneficial health effects remains largely unknown. Here, we show inhibits insulin- leucine-stimulated mTOR signaling in C2C12 fibroblasts via Sirt1-independent mechanism. Treating cells with dramatically inhibited insulin-stimulated Akt, S6 kinase, 4E-BP1 phosphorylation but had little effect on tyrosine of the insulin...

Binding of insulin receptor substrate proteins 1 and 2 (IRS1/2) to the (IR) is essential for regulation sensitivity energy homeostasis. However, mechanism IRS1/2 recruitment IR remains elusive. Here, we identify adaptor protein APPL1 as a critical molecule that promotes IRS1/2-IR interaction. forms complex with under basal conditions, this then recruited in response or adiponectin stimulation. The interaction between depends on insulin- adiponectin-stimulated phosphorylation, which greatly...

The electrocatalytic nitrate conversion of ammonia at ambient conditions provides not only a solution for restoring the imbalance in global nitrogen cycle but also sustainable alternative Haber-Bosch process. However, large-scale and efficient application denitrification has been limited by lack active catalysts with high selectivity reduction to N2. In this work, we present one-step processed synthetic strategy low temperature prepare carbon-nanobelts-supported uniform Cu Pd nanoclusters....

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is associated with obesity-induced insulin resistance, yet the underlying mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. Here we show that ER stress-induced receptor (IR) down-regulation may play a critical role in resistance. The expression levels of IR are negatively marker C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) target tissues <i>db</i>/<i>db</i> mice and fed high-fat diet. Significant was also observed fat tissue obese human subjects 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated...

The adaptor protein APPL1 mediates the stimulatory effect of adiponectin on p38 mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK) signaling, yet underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we show that, in C(2)C(12) cells, overexpression or suppression enhanced suppressed, respectively, adiponectin-stimulated MAPK upstream cascade, consisting transforming growth factor-β-activated 1 (TAK1) and 3 (MKK3). In vitro affinity binding coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that TAK1 MKK3 bind to different...

The antidiabetic and antiatherosclerotic effects of adiponectin make it a desirable drug target for the treatment metabolic cardiovascular diseases. However, adiponectin-based development approach turns out to be difficult due extremely high serum levels this adipokine. On other hand, significant correlation between multimerization its insulin-sensitizing has been demonstrated, suggesting promising alternative therapeutic strategy. Here we show that transgenic mice overexpressing disulfide...

We recently found that the adaptor protein containing pleckstrin homology domain, phosphotyrosine binding domain and leucine zipper motif (APPL)1 is essential for mediating adiponectin signal to induce liver kinase B (LKB)1 cytosloic translocation, an step activation of AMP-activated (AMPK) in cells. However, underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we demonstrate treating C2C12 myotubes with promoted APPL1 interaction phosphatase 2A (PP2A) Cζ (PKCζ), leading PP2A subsequent...

Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that autophagy, which is induced by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in adipocytes, may play an important role obesity-induced insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Obesity induces ER mouse adipose tissue, correlates with reduced adiponectin levels. In 3T3-L1 induction of sufficient to promote autophagy-dependent degradation. contrast, suppressing increases levels adipocytes alleviates high fat diet-induced downregulation mice.
