Abstract

Hepatic gluconeogenesis is the major contributor to the hyperglycemia observed in both patients and animals with type 2 diabetes. The transcription factor FOXO1 plays a dominant role in stimulating hepatic gluconeogenesis. FOXO1 is mainly regulated by insulin under physiological conditions, but liver-specific disruption of Foxo1 transcription restores normal gluconeogenesis in mice in which insulin signaling has been blocked, suggesting that additional regulatory mechanisms exist. Understanding the transcriptional regulation of Foxo1 may be conducive to the development of insulin-independent strategies for the control of hepatic gluconeogenesis. Here, we found that elevated plasma levels of adenine nucleotide in type 2 diabetes are the major regulators of Foxo1 transcription. We treated lean mice with 5′-AMP and examined their transcriptional profiles using RNA-seq. KEGG analysis revealed that the 5′-AMP treatment led to shifted profiles that were similar to db/db mice. Many of the upregulated genes were in pathways associated with the pathology of type 2 diabetes including Foxo1 signaling. As observed in diabetic db/db mice, lean mice treated with 5′-AMP displayed enhanced Foxo1 transcription, involving an increase in cellular adenosine levels and a decrease in the S-adenosylmethionine to S-adenosylhomocysteine ratio. This reduced methylation potential resulted in declining histone H3K9 methylation in the promoters of Foxo1, G6Pc, and Pepck. In mouse livers and cultured cells, 5′-AMP induced expression of more FOXO1 protein, which was found to be localized in the nucleus, where it could promote gluconeogenesis. Our results revealed that adenine nucleotide-driven Foxo1 transcription is crucial for excessive glucose production in type 2 diabetic mice.

The liver plays a central role in whole-body homeostasis and metabolic health. Many metabolic functions, including lipid processing and distribution, amino acid synthesis, and gluconeogenesis, are performed or controlled by the liver (1Rhoads T.W. Burhans M.S. Chen V.B.

Hepatic gluconeogenesis is primarily responsible for the increase of fasting hepatic glucose production in individuals with type 2 diabetes (2Petersen M.C. Vatner D.F. Shulman G.I.

The transcription factor forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) plays a dominant role in regulating hepatic gluconeogenesis (3Haeusler R.A. Kaestner K.H. Accili D.

The FOXO1 interacts directly with DNA-binding sites in the promoter region of several genes related to gluconeogenesis (5Schmoll D. Walker K.S. Alessi D.R. Grempler R. Burchell A. Guo S. Walther R.

The phosphorylation state of FOXO1 determines its cellular localization and transcription activity of FOXO1, which is mainly regulated by the insulin signaling pathway under physiological conditions (7Kops G.J. de Ruiter N.D.

Insulin activates Akt to phosphorylate FOXO1 protein and causes a higher binding affinity of FOXO1 with chaperone protein, thus facilitating the cytoplasmic retention and nuclear export of FOXO1 (4Puigserver P.

While insulin exerts its effects on gluconeogenesis in the liver by inactivating FOXO1 proteins (4Puigserver P. Rhee J. Donovan J. Walkey C.J. Yoon J.C. Oriente F. Kitamura Y. Altomonte J. Dong H.

The mechanism of hepatic Foxo1 transcriptional regulation in type 2 diabetes mellitus is unknown. The factors that stimulate hepatic Foxo1 transcription are generally considered to be less important than FOXO1 protein phosphorylation and are almost ignored in type 2 diabetes.
