Effects of Quantity and Quality of Dietary Protein and Variation in Certain Enzyme Activities on Glucose Metabolism in the Rat

Abstract: This study attempted to determine whether the quantity and the quality of protein intake could influence the activity of some enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism. Thus, adult rats were fed for 23 days a diet containing different levels (10 to 70%) and qualities (casein, wheat gluten, and egg yolk) of protein. Variations in liver enzyme activities of pyruvate kinase (PK), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), malic enzyme (ME), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (… Show more

“…This effect is observed with diet containing protein or not carbohydrates suggesting that the level of protein per se in the diet is able to stimulate hepatic gluconeogenesis. 42,43 Interestingly, when increasing the protein content of the diet, PEPCK (which controls the initial conversion of oxaloacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate) is upregulated either in the fasted and in the fed state, whereas glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) (which controls the last step of gluconeogenesis) is upregulated in the fasted state and downregulated in the fed state. 43,44 These observations strongly suggest that liver gluconeogenesis is stimulated by a high-protein diet but that in the fed state the newly synthesized glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is directed toward glycogen synthesis whereas in the fasted state it is converted to glucose and released from hepatocyte.…”

The control of PEPCK and G6Pase activity in the liver by nutrients has a profound impact on hepatic metabolism and glucose homeostasis 45,46 and the satiating effect of high-protein feeding could be related to the improvement of glucose homeostasis through the modulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis and subsequent glucose metabolism.…”

“…The nutritional status preceding the fasting period can also modify the metabolic response of the entire organism or of liver gluconeogenesis or ketogenesis (Belo, Romsos and Leveille, 1976 ;Bouchat, Doiz6 and Paquay, 1980 ;Brady et al, 1977 ;Cowan, Vranic and Wrenshall, 1969 ;Mc Donald and Johnson, 1965 ;P6gorier et al, 1982 ;Peret et al, 1975). Few Glycemia and insulinemia were shown to increase in the fed state in rats given a high-fat diet (Portha, Giroix and Picon, 1982).…”

“…De nombreux travaux montrent les effets des régimes riches en protéines sur l'activité des enzymes impliquées dans différentes voies métaboliques (Harper, 1965 ; Szepesi, 1971 (Munro, 1964;Peret et al, 1975 Bucolo, 1974). En outre, elles dépendent de la concentration en glucose ou en glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) des cellules hépatiques, l'ensemble du système étant contrôlé par différentes hormones (insuline, glucagon, catécholamines, etc.)…”

“…2 phosphoglycérate -G6P -glucose) et l'activité de la PK est progressivement inhibée (Weber, 1969 ;Hers, 1976). Lorsque la consommation de nourriture approche le niveau initial, ces phénomènes se stabilisent; l'activité de la PK devient constante et est d'autant plus basse que le régime est plus riche en protéines (Krebs et Eggleston, 1965 ;Peret et al, 1975). …”
