1 Regulation of Muscle lucose Uptake David Wasserman Light Hall Rm. 823

2 Regulation and Assessment of Muscle lucose Uptake Processes and Reactions Involved Methods of Measurement Physiological Regulation by Exercise and Insulin Metabolic Control Analysis

3 To Understand lucose Metabolism In Vivo, One must Understand Regulation by Muscle Muscle is ~90% of insulin sensitive tissue Muscle metabolism can increase ~10x in response to exercise Muscle is a major site of insulin resistance in diabetes

4 Muscle lucose Uptake in Three Easy Steps Extracellular Membrane Intracellular glucose glucose 6-phosphate blood flow capillary recruitment spatial barriers transporter # transporter activity hexokinase # hexokinase compartmentation spatial barriers

5 Outside Inside (-) lycogen Synthesis lc LUT4 LUT1 lc HK II lc 6-P lycolysis lucose is not officially taken up by muscle until it is phosphorylated. lucose phosphorylation traps carbons in the muscle and primes it for metabolism.

6 Feedback Inhibition of HK II by lc 6-P distributes Control of Muscle lucose Uptake to lycogen Synthesis/Breakdown and lycolytic Pathways d[lc 6-P]/dt = Flux HK + Flux Phos - Flux S - Flux ly

7 Regulation and Assessment of Muscle lucose Uptake Processes and Reactions Involved Methods of Measurement Physiological Regulation by Exercise and Insulin Metabolic Control Analysis

8 Tools for Studying Muscle lucose Uptake in vivo Why in vivo? Why conscious?

9 Methods to Assess Muscle lucose Uptake in vivo Arteriovenous differences Isotope dilution ([3-3 H]glucose) [ 3 H]2-deoxyglucose Positron emission tomography ([ 18 F]deoxyglucose)

10 Arteriovenous Differences Multiple measurements over time Invasive, but applicable to human subjects Requires accurate blood flow measure Not applicable to small animals Sensitive analytical methods are needed to measure small arteriovenous difference

11 Isotope dilution ([3-3 H]glucose) Minimal invasiveness Applicable to human subjects Applicable with 6,6[ 2 H]glucose also Whole body measure; not muscle specific

12 [ 3 H]2-deoxyglucose Sensitive Tissue specific 2-deoxyglucose metabolism may differ from that for glucose Usually single endpoint measure enerally not applied to people. Extracellular Water 2D 2D Intracellular Water 2D-P

13 Positron emission tomography Minimal invasiveness ([ 18 F]deoxyglucose) Applicable to human subjects 2-deoxyglucose metabolism may differ from that for glucose Single point derived from curve fitting/compartmental analysis Requires expensive equipment ROI must be stationary (i.e. cannot study during exercise)

14 Regulation and Assessment of Muscle lucose Uptake Processes and Reactions Involved Methods of Measurement Physiological Regulation by Exercise and Insulin Metabolic Control Analysis

15 You can t Study Muscle lucose Metabolism in vivo without a Sensitizing Test Reason: In the fasted, non-exercising state muscle glucose metabolism is too low. Sensitizing Tests: Insulin clamp, Exercise

16 Fasted Insulin or Exercise 1 1 LUT4 2 2 HK II 3 HK II 3 P P P P P ptf 2002

17 Relationship of Muscle Cell Surface LUT4 to Uptake of a lucose Analog 12 Soleus 3-O-methylglucose Uptake µmol/(ml hr) Soleus Cell Surface LUT4 Content pmol/(g wet wt) Basal Insulin Contractions Insulin + Contractions From Lund et al. PNAS 92: 5817, 1995

18 Insulin signals the translocation of LUT4 to the cell membrane by a series of protein phosphorylation rxns

20 Exercise and Insulin act through Different Mechanisms

21 lucose Working Muscle AMPKK AMPK P [AMP] CaMKII P CaMKK LUT4 Translocation NOS apkc p38 ERK? FAT Acetyl-CoA Carboylase (ACC) [Ca ++ ] Fat Metabolism

22 Contraction- and Insulin-stimulated Muscle lucose Uptake use Separate Cell Signaling Pathways Contraction does not phosphorylate proteins involved in early insulin signaling steps. Wortmannin eliminates insulin- but not contractionstimulated increases in glucose transport. Insulin and contraction recruit LUT4 from different pools. Effects of insulin and exercise on glucose transport are additive. Insulin resistant states are not always contraction resistant.

23 Insulin Stimulation lycogen Synthesis lucose 6-Phosphate lycolysis Exercise lycogen Synthesis lucose 6-Phosphate lycolysis

25 Exercise stimulates glucose utilization independent of insulin action in vivo lucose Disappearance (mg kg -1 min -1 ) Insulin - Insulin Exercise Time (min)

26 What is the stimulus/stimuli that signal the working muscle to take up more glucose? Shift in muscle Ca ++ stores Increase in muscle adenine nucleotide levels Increase in muscle blood flow

27 Insulin-stimulated glucose utilization is increased during exercise 18 lucose Disappearance (mg kg -1 min -1 ) 12 6 Exercise Rest Insulin (µu/ml)

28 Proposed mechanisms by which acute exercise enhances insulin sensitivity Increased muscle blood flow Increased capillary surface area Direct effect on working muscles Indirect effect mediated by insulin-induced suppression of FFA levels
