Abstract
Expression and activity of serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK1) are associated with many metabolic and inflammatory diseases. In this study, we report that SGK1 promotes alternative macrophage polarization and restrains inflammation in the infectious milieu of the gingiva. Inhibition of SGK1 expression or activity enhances characteristics of classically activated (M1) macrophages by directly activating the transcription of genes encoding iNOS, IL-12P40, TNF-α, and IL-6 and repressing IL-10 at message and protein levels. Moreover, SGK1 inhibition robustly reduces the expression of alternatively activated (M2) macrophage molecular markers, including arginase-1, Ym-1, Fizz1, and Mgl-1. These results were confirmed by multiple gain- and loss-of-function approaches, including small interfering RNA, a plasmid encoding SGK1, and LysM-Cre-mediated sgk1 gene knockout. Further mechanistic analysis showed that SGK1 deficiency decreases STAT3 but increases FoxO1 expression in macrophages under M2 or M1 macrophage-priming conditions, respectively. Combined with decreased FoxO1 phosphorylation and the subsequent suppressed cytoplasmic translocation observed, SGK1 deficiency robustly enhances FoxO1 activity and drives macrophage to preferential M1 phenotypes. Furthermore, FoxO1 inhibition abrogates M1 phenotypes, and STAT3 overexpression results in a significant increase of M2 phenotypes, indicating that both FoxO1 and STAT3 are involved in SGK1-mediated macrophage polarization. Additionally, SGK1 differentially regulates the expression of M1 and M2 molecular markers, including CD68 and F4/F80 and CD163 and CD206, respectively, and protects against Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced alveolar bone loss in a mouse model. Taken together, these results have demonstrated that SGK1 is critical for macrophage polarization and periodontal bone loss, and for the first time, to our knowledge, we elucidated a bifurcated signaling circuit by which SGK1 promotes alternative, while suppressing inflammatory, macrophage polarization.

The Mechanism by Which Amentoflavone Improves Insulin Resistance in HepG2 Cells. Molecules 2016; 21:molecules21050624. [PMID: 27187341 PMCID: PMC6274486 DOI: 10.3390/molecules21050624] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2016] [Revised: 05/05/2016] [Accepted: 05/06/2016] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism by which amentoflavone (AME) improves insulin resistance in a human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cell line (HepG2). Methods: A model of insulin resistant cells was established in HepG2 by treatment with high glucose and insulin. The glucose oxidase method was used to detect the glucose consumption in each group. To determine the mechanism by which AME improves insulin resistance in HepG2 cells, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blotting were used to detect the expression of phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3K), Akt, and pAkt; the activity of the enzymes involved in glucose metabolism; and the levels of inflammatory cytokines. Results: Insulin resistance was successfully induced in HepG2 cells. After treatment with AME, the glucose consumption increased significantly in HepG2 cells compared with the model group (MG). The expression of PI3K, Akt, and pAkt and the activity of 6-phosphofructokinas (PFK-1), glucokinase (GCK), and pyruvate kinase (PK) increased, while the activity of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase kinase (PEPCK), and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) as well as the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and C reactive protein (CRP) decreased. Conclusions: The mechanism by which treatment with AME improves insulin resistance in HepG2 cells may involve the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, the processes of glucose oxygenolysis, glycogen synthesis, gluconeogenesis and inflammatory cytokine expression.

Abstract
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) induces hepatic inflammation and insulin resistance, and therapeutic strategies to counteract the IL-6 action in liver are of high interest. In this study, we demonstrate that acute treatment with AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) agonists AICAR and metformin efficiently repressed IL-6-induced hepatic proinflammatory gene expression and activation of STAT3 in a mouse model of diet-induced type 2 diabetes, bringing it back to basal nonstimulated level. Surprisingly, the inflammatory response in liver induced by IL-6 administration in vivo was markedly blunted in the mice fed a high-fat diet, compared to lean chow-fed controls, while this difference was not replicated in vitro in primary hepatocytes derived from these two groups of mice. In summary, our work reveals that partial hepatic IL-6 resistance develops in the mouse model of type 2 diabetes, while the anti-inflammatory action of AMPK is maintained. Systemic factors, rather than differences in intracellular IL-6 receptor signaling, are likely mediating the relative impairment in IL-6 effect.

Abstract
Feeding 56 versus 0 g/d of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (SCFP; Diamond V Original XP; Diamond V, Cedar Rapids, IA) can increase feed intake and milk production in transition dairy cows. To evaluate the effects of various dosages of SCFP, Holstein cows were given individually a supplement containing 0 (n=14), 56 (n=15), or 112 g (n=13) of SCFP daily during morning lockup as a topdressing to their total mixed ration. The supplement consisted of 0, 56, or 112 g of SCFP mixed with 84 g of molasses and 168, 112, or 56 g of corn meal, respectively. Supplement feeding began 28 d before predicted calving date (no less than 14 d) and ended 28 d postpartum, and supplement intake was evaluated daily. Blood samples were collected at d -21, -14, -7, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 to measure serum concentrations of macrominerals, metabolites, acute-phase proteins, immunoglobulin, and hormones. Milk weights were measured and milk samples were collected 2 times/wk on nonconsecutive days and analyzed for milk fat, protein, lactose, and somatic cell count (SCC). During the first day after calving, feeding SCFP versus no SCFP decreased serum cortisol concentrations and at least tended to increase supplement intake and serum concentrations of calcium, glucose, urea N, and serum amyloid A. During the first 4 wk postpartum, feeding SCFP versus no SCFP decreased milk SCC and increased milk production and serum phosphorus concentrations. Feeding 112 versus 56 g of SCFP/d did not show additional effects. Feeding SCFP may have a dosage-independent beneficial effect in supporting the physiologic adaptations after parturition, resulting in higher milk production and lower milk SCC.

FOXO1 involvement in insulin resistance-related pro-inflammatory cytokine production in hepatocytes. Inflamm Res 2012; 61:349-58. [PMID: 22223069 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-011-0417-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2011] [Revised: 11/17/2011] [Accepted: 12/06/2011] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low-grade inflammation from hepatocytes plays a causal role in hepatic and systemic insulin resistance (IR). We aimed to explore whether and how FOXO1 was involved in IR-related inflammation in hepatocytes. METHODS We determined FOXO1 expression and activity, insulin and NF-κB signaling, and pro-inflammatory cytokine production in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)- or dexamethasone (DEX)-induced IR model in vitro and in high fat diet-induced obese or diabetic db/db mice in vivo with quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS We identified two different but physiologically relevant IR models characterized by attenuated insulin-induced phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 and AKT in TNF-α- or DEX-treated HepG2 cells. DEX largely increased FOXO1 expression in hepatocytes, while TNF-α did not. Notably, FOXO1 phosphorylation was attenuated in both models. TNF-α-stimulated nuclear translocation of NF-κB (p65) and mRNA levels of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6 and monocyte attractant protein-1 were partly blocked, while the anti-inflammatory role of DEX was largely potentiated by insulin. FOXO1 knockdown by human-specific FOXO1 small interfering RNA exerted an identical role to insulin. Furthermore, augmented hepatic FOXO1 expression and decreased phosphorylation were found to be associated with elevated pro-inflammatory cytokine production in high fat diet-induced obese and db/db mice. CONCLUSION FOXO1 potentiates pro-inflammatory cytokine production in insulin-resistant hepatocytes.
