Hormonal regulation of gluconeogenic gene transcription in the liver

Abstract: Glucose homeostasis in mammals is achieved by the actions of counterregulatory hormones, namely insulin, glucagon and glucocorticoids. Glucose levels in the circulation are regulated by the liver, the metabolic centre which produces glucose when it is scarce in the blood. This process is catalysed by two rate-limiting enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) whose gene expression is regulated by hormones. Hormone response units (HRUs) present in the two genes integr… Show more

“…Since the liver is the major contributor of blood glucose, it is reasonable to hypothesize that the decrease in HIF1A protein levels in the liver under starvation underlie a liver adaption to a gluconeogenic state. 58 Hence our findings are consistent with a model in which CMA has an important role in starvation-induced liver metabolic stress.…”

“…To further confirm FoxO1 requirement for TH action, we performed ChIP-qPCR to analyze FoxO1 binding to the IRE located on the PCK1 and G6PC promoters, which has been shown earlier to be necessary for FoxO1-mediated transcription (9,27). ChIP-qPCR analyses showed that T 3 significantly increased FoxO1 binding to the IRE regions of PCK1 (Ϫ426 to Ϫ170) and G6PC (Ϫ237 to Ϫ70) promoters (Fig.…”

“…After the activation of PI3k/Akt/mTOR pathway, the expression of G6Pase and PEPCK is reduced, thereby decreasing hepatic glucose production (Yabaluri & Bashyam, 2010). Akt and mTOR (mTORC1 and mTORC2 subtypes) are the downstream genes of PI3k, but their relation is complex.…”

“…Previous studies have shown that the glucose metabolism can be regulated by insulin through the PI3K signal transduction cascade (Saltiel & Kahn, 2001). When this pathway is activated, the expression of G6Pase and PEPCK is reduced, thereby decreasing hepatic glucose production (O'Brien et al, 2001;Yabaluri & Bashyam, 2010). Akt, as a major cellular transduction element downstream PI3K, is a member of the insulin signaling pathway (Saltiel & Kahn, 2001).…”
