Insulin resistance: is there a common molecular denominator?

Infection/sepsis Burn injury Starvation

Also:

Many molecular mediators have been proposed:

–  Cortisol –  TNF-α –  IL-6 –  Growth hormone –  Insulin –  Glucose –  Free Fatty Acids –  Glucosamine

TNF Dex

–  Both GCs and TNF are elevated in multiple insulin resistant states

–  Exogenous GCs/TNF induce insulin resistance in vivo –  TNF-/- mice are protected from diet-induced insulin

resistance –  Glucocorticoid antagonists block diet-induced insulin

resistance in mice

Why Dex and TNF?

Dex and TNF are very different

-  Dex is the prototypical anti-inflammatory agent; acts through a nuclear receptor

-  TNF is the prototypical pro-inflammatory agent;

acts through a cell-surface receptor

Cellular models of insulin resistance: TNF and Dex

Virtually all mechanisms proposed for insulin resistance involve signal transduction or mitochondrial pathways Yet…. -Thiazolidinedione class of insulin-sensitizing drugs work by binding and activating the transcription factor PPARγ -Cellular models of insulin resistance develop slowly over the course of many days -There is a wealth of data linking chromatin state to obesity and its complications

1.  Dex and TNF causes discrete changes in epigenome of L1 cells that associate with IR.

2.  Motif finding in differentially regulated regions can identify novel pathways leading to IR.

3.  TNF causes IR, in part, through ligand-independent activation of the GR. 4.  The VDR is a GR target that further induces downstream IR genes.

5.  Tmem176a, Colq, Lcn2 and Serpina3n are part of an IR-inducing gene network downstream of GR and VDR.

6.  Human studies are underway to confirm and extend these results.
