Weight loss by ketogenic diet (KD) has gained popularity in management of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). KD rapidly reverses NAFLD and insulin resistance despite increasing circulating nonesterified acids (NEFA), the main substrate for synthesis intrahepatic triglycerides (IHTG). To explore underlying mechanism, we quantified hepatic mitochondrial fluxes their regulators humans using positional isotopomer NMR tracer analysis. Ten overweight/obese subjects received stable isotope...

The athlete’s paradox states that intramyocellular triglyceride accumulation associates with insulin resistance in sedentary but not endurance-trained humans. Underlying mechanisms and the role of muscle lipid distribution composition on glucose metabolism remain unclear. We compared highly trained athletes (ATHL) normal weight (LEAN) overweight-to-obese (OVWE) male female individuals. This observational study found ATHL show higher sensitivity, mitochondrial content, capacity, lower...

Meal ingestion increases body temperature in multiple species, an effect that is blunted by obesity. However, the mechanisms responsible for these phenomena remain incompletely understood. Here we show refeeding plasma leptin concentrations approximately 8-fold 48-hour-fasted lean rats, and this normalization of stimulates adrenomedullary catecholamine secretion. Increased adrenal medulla-derived catecholamines were necessary sufficient to increase postprandially, a process required both...

White adipose tissue (WAT) insulin action has critical anabolic function and is dysregulated in overnutrition. However, the mechanism of short-term high-fat diet-induced (HFD-induced) WAT resistance (IR) poorly understood. Based on recent evidences, we hypothesize that a HFD causes IR through plasma membrane (PM) sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (sn-1,2-DAG) accumulation, which promotes protein kinase C-ε (PKCε) activation to impair signaling by phosphorylating receptor (Insr) Thr1160. To test this...

Athletes exhibit increased muscle insulin sensitivity, despite intramuscular triacylglycerol content. This phenomenon has been coined the 'athlete's paradox' and is poorly understood. Recent findings suggest that subcellular distribution of sn-1,2-diacylglycerols (DAGs) in plasma membrane leading to activation novel protein kinase Cs (PKCs) a crucial pathway inducing resistance. Here, we hypothesised regular aerobic exercise would preserve sensitivity by preventing increases sn-1,2-DAGs PKCε...

Diacylglycerol (DAG) has been proposed to mediate lipid-induced hepatic insulin resistance. Accumulated DAG activates PKCε which phosphorylates receptor kinase (IRK) at T1160 inhibit IRK activation and cause However, the importance of in resistance remains controversial. To test physiological effect acute accumulation on sensitivity, we used antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) specifically diglyceride acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) catalyzes conversion triglyceride. Previously, chronic DGAT2...

White adipose tissue (WAT), as an energy storage organ, plays a major role in regulating peripheral insulin resistance and hepatic gluconeogenesis, but the mechanism by which lipid induces WAT is poorly understood.

The identity and subcellular localization of the bioactive lipid species that causes hepatic insulin resistance remain controversial. Though chronic diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) knockdown improves steatosis action, we hypothesized acute DGAT2 would transiently increase (DAG) content to specifically assess role DAG on action. Regular chow-fed rats were treated with a single dose antisense oligonucleotide studied days later. sn-1,2, sn-2,3 sn-1,3 DAGs assessed by LC-MS/MS in...

The mechanism by which meal ingestion causes thermogenesis remains unknown. Here we show that refeeding leads to a 10x increase in plasma leptin concentrations associated with 2.5x catecholamine 48h-fasted lean rats. This leptin/catecholamine surge was 1°C body temperature (BT) (fed 35.9±0.1°C, fasted 35.4±0.0°C, P&amp;lt;0.001; refed 36.4±0.1°C, P&amp;lt;0.001 vs. and P&amp;lt;0.05 fed). Leptin infusion rats replicated these increases epinephrine BT. However, the effect of BT abrogated...
