115 7556621 Insulin treatment (4 days) only marginally increased ob mRNA, but restored euglycemia and overcorrected FAS, GLUT4 and PEPCK expression.

118 7685354 Our results indicate that deletion of the insulin regulatory sequence of the PEPCK promoter did not affect dietary control of PEPCK gene expression.
119 7685354 These results provide evidence for the interaction of insulin and glucocorticoid regulatory elements in the control of PEPCK gene transcription and suggest an important role of glucocorticoids as a gluconeogenic activator during diabetes.

122 7772911 Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPck) for gluconeogenesis and the malic enzyme for de novo fatty acid synthesis in the liver showed a reciprocal change, the former activity being increased, while the latter was suppressed.
123 7772911 Sustained hyperglycemia in the SP rats not only increased the changes in PEPck and malic enzyme activities but reversed the tissue-specific muscle LPL elevations.

126 7885286 Although flux through gluconeogenic/glycolytic pathways involves regulation of many enzymes, we presently report the effects of insulin on expression of two key enzymes in these metabolic pathways, ie, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucokinase (GK).
127 7885286 Although the mean level of liver mRNA transcripts encoding PEPCK was increased to nearly 300% in diabetic animals as compared with nondiabetic controls (100%), it was significantly lower in pioglitazone-treated diabetic rats (119% of control) than in diabetic rats without pioglitazone (223% of control) after insulin treatment.

130 7968588 When compared with their lean (ob/+) controls, the livers of ob/ob mice exhibited an approximately 90% reduction in the levels of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) mRNA and twofold to fivefold higher levels of the mRNAs for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), the "liver beta-cell" glucose transporter (GLUT2), and the proto-oncogene c-myc.
131 7968588 In summary, hyperglycemia in the ob/ob mouse is characterized by decreased expression of PEPCK and increased expression of GAPDH mRNA.

134 7969095 Parallel studies with insulin indicated that biotin had a regulatory effect similar to that of insulin on liver PEPCK mRNA.
135 8100835 Vanadate also counteracted the induction in tyrosine aminotransferase gene expression due to diabetes and was able to increase the expression of the glucokinase gene to levels even higher than those found in healthy animals.
136 8100835 These effects were correlated with changes on glucokinase and pyruvate kinase activities.
137 8100835 Furthermore, a similar pattern in the expression of PEPCK, GLUT-2, HMGCoAS, and the transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha genes has been observed.
138 8168695 Transgenic mice expressing the P-enolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK)/human insulin chimeric gene have been obtained as a model to study the feasibility of gene therapy for diabetes.
139 8168695 The expression of genes involved in liver glucose metabolism, such as glucokinase, pyruvate kinase, and PEPCK, which is markedly altered by diabetes, was significantly recovered in transgenic mice treated with streptozotocin.

142 8490617 The human PEPCK gene (PCK1) was isolated by hybridization using a fragment of the hPEPCK cDNA as a probe.
143 8490617 A simple tandem repeat DNA polymorphism in the 3'-untranslated region of the mRNA was characterized and used to localize PCK1 relative to the gene responsible for a form of non-insulin-dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus called maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).
144 8544847 The effects of an overexpressed, non-insulin-responsive gluconeogenic enzyme, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) (PEPCK; EC 4.1.1.32), on glucose homeostasis were investigated.
145 8547315 Glucagon (acting via cyclic AMP (cAMP)) and glucocorticoids stimulate PEPCK gene transcription, whereas insulin has the opposite effect.
146 8547315 Since these are the major regulatory hormones controlling glucose homeostasis, and because increased hepatic glucose production is one of the characteristics of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), investigators have speculated that the regulation of PEPCK gene expression may be defective in patients with NIDDM.

149 8636258 In this study, we sought to test the hypothesis that mutations in the PEPCK gene promoter may impair the ability of insulin to suppress hepatic glucose production, thereby contributing to both the insulin resistance and increased rate of gluconeogenesis characteristic of NIDDM.
150 8932991 The hepatic response to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia in rats involved a significant loss in glycogen and suppression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) activity.
151 8971075 Glucagon (via the second messenger cAMP), retinoic acid, and glucocorticoids stimulate transcription of the PEPCK gene, whereas insulin and phorbol esters have a dominant inhibitory effect.
152 8971075 Wortmannin, an inhibitor of 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), blocks the inhibition of glucocorticoid and cAMP-induced PEPCK gene transcription by insulin; however, it has no effect on the inhibition elicited by oxidative or chemical stress.
153 8971075 The reactivating kinase (RK, also known as p38 mitogen activated protein kinase) is induced by insulin, hydrogen peroxide, or sodium meta-arsenite in hepatoma cells, and these effects are blocked by SB203580, a selective inhibitor of RK.
154 8971075 Thus, although RK has a role in the regulation of lymphokine gene expression in monocytes, it is not required for the regulation of PEPCK expression by either insulin or oxidative and chemical stress in hepatoma cells.

163 9115220 A multicomponent insulin response sequence mediates a strong repression of mouse glucose-6-phosphatase gene transcription by insulin.
164 9115220 This suggests that a coordinate increase in both G6Pase and PEPCK gene transcription is likely to contribute to the increased hepatic glucose production characteristic of patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
165 9392491 Because leptin reduces food intake but inhibits insulin secretion, we examined leptin action in mice with a null mutation in the GLP-I receptor.
166 9392491 Glucose-stimulated insulin was reduced in both pair-fed and leptin-treated mice (P < 0.01-0.001); however, insulin levels were significantly lower in leptin-treated versus pair-fed GLP-IR -/- mice (P < 0.01).
167 9392491 A single leptin injection had no effect on glucose tolerance in GLP-IR -/- mice, but decreased hepatic PEPCK mRNA in both wild-type and GLP-IR -/- mice.
168 9392491 The improvement in blood glucose excursion, despite lower levels of glucose-stimulated insulin in lean leptin-treated GLP-IR -/- mice, suggests that leptin may have beneficial effects on control of blood glucose in the absence of obesity.
169 9392491 Furthermore, the greater effects of leptin on glucose and insulin in leptin-treated versus pair-fed GLP-IR -/- mice raises the possibility that disruption of GLP-I signaling modifies the sensitivity to leptin in vivo.
170 9395482 To examine the involvement of glucocorticoids and the cis-acting insulin response sequence (IRS, -416/-407) in the genetically obese db/db mouse model, we generated crosses between C57BL/KsJ-db/+ mice and transgenic mice that express -460 or -2000 base pairs of the rat PEPCK gene promoter containing an intact or mutated IRS, linked to a reporter gene.
171 9395482 Transgenic mice expressing the intact PEPCK(460)-CRP (C-reactive protein) transgene bred to near homozygosity at the db locus were obese, hyperinsulinemic, and developed fasting hyperglycemia (389 +/- 26 mg/100 ml) between 4 and 10 weeks of age.
172 9395482 Treatment of obese diabetic db/db transgenic mice with the glucocorticoid receptor blocker RU 486 decreased plasma glucose by 50% and reduced PEPCK, GLUT2, glucose-6-phosphatase, tyrosine aminotransferase, CRP, and hGx reporter gene expression to levels similar to those of non-obese normoglycemic transgenic mice.

179 9417069 Hepatic gene expression of P-enolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (Glc-6-Pase) is regulated in response to changes in the availability of substrates, in particular glucose (Glc; Massillon, D., Barzilai, N., Chen, W., Hu, M., and Rossetti, L. (1996) J.
180 9417069 Importantly, inhibition of glucokinase activity by glucosamine infusion blunted both the stimulation of Glc-6-Pase and the inhibition of PEPCK gene expression by Glc, suggesting that an intrahepatic signal (metabolite) generated by the metabolism of glucose at or beyond Glc-6-P was responsible for the regulatory effect of Glc.

185 9449378 Insulin produced by FTOInsm cells was biologically active because it blocked endogenous PEPCK gene expression and induced glucose uptake and lactate production.

189 9593773 In the adult offspring of rats exposed to dexamethasone in late pregnancy, hepatic expression of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) mRNA and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) mRNA (and activity) are increased by 25% (P = 0.01) and 60% (P < 0.01), respectively, while other liver enzymes (glucose-6-phosphatase, glucokinase, and 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type-1) are unaltered.
190 9593773 In contrast dexamethasone, when given in the first or second week of gestation, has no effect on offspring insulin/glucose responses or hepatic PEPCK and GR expression.

193 9808637 The of this study was to evaluate the chronic effects of a high (waxy corn) vs. a low (mung beans) glycemic index starch diet on the lipogenic enzymes, fatty acid synthase (FAS) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL).
194 9808637 To evaluate the implication of insulin in this regulation, two genes regulated by insulin [GLUT4 and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK)] were also studied.
195 9808637 We conclude that the total replacement of 575 g/kg low glycemic index starch by a high glycemic index starch for 3 wk caused the following in normal rats: 1) high FAS activity and mRNA in adipose tissue but not in liver and 2) high GLUT4 gene expression in adipose tissue.
196 9916132 The transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta) is enriched in liver and adipose tissue and controls the expression of a wide variety of genes coding for important metabolic pathways, including gluconeogenesis and lipid synthesis.
197 9916132 Fasting hypoglycemia was associated with normal levels of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) gene expression, however net liver glycogenolysis was impaired in C/EBPbeta-/- mice.
198 9916132 Because a deletion in the gene for C/EBPbeta reduces blood glucose and circulating FFA, it could be an important therapeutic target for the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes and possibly obesity, based on designing antagonists that decrease C/EBPbeta activity.

202 10224054 We also examined the expression of PEPCK and glucose 6-phosphatase mRNAs and regulation of blood glucose, including the contribution of gluconeogenesis to blood glucose in c/ebpbeta-/- mice.
203 10224054 C/EBPbeta was not essential to basal PEPCK mRNA levels.
204 10224054 However, C/EBPbeta deletion affected streptozotocin-diabetic response by: (a) delaying hyperglycemia, (b) preventing the increase of plasma free fatty acids, (c) limiting the full induction of PEPCK and glucose 6-phosphatase genes, and (d) preventing the increase in gluconeogenesis rate.
205 10224054 Gel supershifts of transcription factor C/EBPalpha, bound to CRE, P3I, and AF-2 sites of the PEPCK promoter, was not increased in diabetic c/ebpbeta-/- mouse liver nuclei, suggesting that C/EBPalpha does not substitute for C/EBPbeta in the diabetic response of liver gene transcription.

241 10224054 C/EBPbeta binds to several sequences of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) gene promoter with high affinity, and C/EBPbeta protein is increased 200% in the livers of streptozotocin-diabetic mice, concurrent with increased PEPCK mRNA.
242 10224054 We also examined the expression of PEPCK and glucose 6-phosphatase mRNAs and regulation of blood glucose, including the contribution of gluconeogenesis to blood glucose in c/ebpbeta-/- mice.
243 10224054 C/EBPbeta was not essential to basal PEPCK mRNA levels.
244 10224054 However, C/EBPbeta deletion affected streptozotocin-diabetic response by: (a) delaying hyperglycemia, (b) preventing the increase of plasma free fatty acids, (c) limiting the full induction of PEPCK and glucose 6-phosphatase genes, and (d) preventing the increase in gluconeogenesis rate.
245 10224054 Gel supershifts of transcription factor C/EBPalpha, bound to CRE, P3I, and AF-2 sites of the PEPCK promoter, was not increased in diabetic c/ebpbeta-/- mouse liver nuclei, suggesting that C/EBPalpha does not substitute for C/EBPbeta in the diabetic response of liver gene transcription.
246 10224054 These results link C/EBPbeta to the metabolic and gene regulatory responses to diabetes and implicate C/EBPbeta as an essential factor underlying glucocorticoid-dependent activation of PEPCK gene transcription in the intact animal.
247 10441380 In conventionally treated diabetic rats, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) protein and mRNA levels remained slightly elevated when compared to normal animals, glycogen phosphorylase (GP) protein levels were still slightly decreased, and glycogen synthase (GS) protein and mRNA levels remained at the elevated levels observed in untreated diabetics.
248 10446394 In this study, we examined the molecular basis for this property of troglitazone by exploring the effects of this compound on the expression of the two genes encoding the major regulatory enzymes of gluconeogenesis, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes.
249 10446394 This was further supported by the observation that troglitazone was able to reduce PEPCK mRNA levels in the presence of the insulin signaling pathway inhibitors wortmannin, rapamycin, and PD98059.

253 10683186 Wistar rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes (STZ-diabetic rats), which is similar to human insulin-dependent diabetic mellitus (IDDM), were employed to investigate the antihyperglycemic action of isoferulic acid.
254 10683186 However, expression of GLUT4 and PEPCK genes in nondiabetic rats were not influenced by similar treatment with isoferulic acid.
255 10726908 The aims of the present study were (1) to elucidate vanadate's action in vivo, and to assess the possibility that its glucose-reducing effect is dependent on the presence of a minimal concentration of insulin; and (2) to evaluate the effects of vanadate administration on the key hepatic gluconeogenesis enzymes, glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), as well as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH).

295 11277867 To employ hepatocytes as surrogate beta-cells for gene therapy of diabetes, a regulatory system was devised in this study by placing the human insulin cDNA under the control of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) promoter, followed by the cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter-driven enhanced-green-fluorescent-protein open reading frame.

300 11557972 Here we show that the transcriptional coactivator PGC-1 is strongly induced in liver in fasting mice and in three mouse models of insulin action deficiency: streptozotocin-induced diabetes, ob/ob genotype and liver insulin-receptor knockout.
301 11557972 Adenoviral-mediated expression of PGC-1 in hepatocytes in culture or in vivo strongly activates an entire programme of key gluconeogenic enzymes, including phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase, leading to increased glucose output.

308 11557984 CREB regulates hepatic gluconeogenesis through the coactivator PGC-1.
309 11557984 CREB was found to induce expression of the gluconeogenic programme through the nuclear receptor coactivator PGC-1, which is shown here to be a direct target for CREB regulation in vivo.

336 11964395 Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, and associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase were normal in TG mice, whereas IRS-2 protein and phosphorylation were down-regulated compared with control mice.
337 11964395 Furthermore, these results demonstrate that PEPCK overexpression results in a metabolic pattern that increases glucose-6-phosphatase mRNA and results in a selective decrease in IRS-2 protein, decreased phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity, and reduced ability of insulin to suppress gluconeogenic gene expression.

383 12453892 Here we show that RA upregulation of PEPCK promoter activity requires the cAMP response element (CRE)-1 in addition to the RA-response element and that activating transcription factor-2 (ATF-2) binds the CRE element to mediate this effect.
384 12453892 Furthermore, we show that RA treatment potentiates ATF-2-dependent transactivation by inducing specific phosphorylation of ATF-2 by p38beta kinase.
385 12453892 ATF-2 activation by RA blocked the inhibitory intramolecular interaction of ATF-2 amino and carboxyl terminal domains in a p38beta kinase-dependent manner.
386 12453892 Consistent with these results, RA treatment increased the DNA binding activity of ATF-2 on the PEPCK CRE-1 sequence.
387 12453892 Taken together, the data suggest that RA activates the p38beta kinase pathway leading to phosphorylation and activation of ATF-2, thereby enhancing PEPCK gene transcription and glucose production.

395 12598908 Bone morphogenetic protein-9 (BMP-9) gave a positive response in two independent assays: reducing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) expression in hepatocytes and activating Akt kinase in differentiated myotubes.
396 12663463 Tanis overexpression reduced glucose uptake, basal and insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis, and glycogen content and attenuated the suppression of PEPCK gene expression by insulin, but it did not affect insulin-stimulated insulin receptor phosphorylation or triglyceride synthesis.
397 12721674 Both, glucocorticoids and insulin are known to affect the expression of the two gluconeogenic key enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate-carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase).
398 12721674 While glucocorticoids are known to stimulate the expression of the PEPCK- and G6Pase gene, insulin decreases hepatic glucose production through an inhibition of PEPCK- and G6Pase gene expression.

402 12783775 The forkhead transcription factor Foxo1 has been implicated as a mediator of insulin action in regulating hepatic gluconeogenesis, and a Foxo1 mutant (Foxo1-Delta256), devoid of its carboxyl domain, has been shown to interfere with Foxo1 function and inhibit gluconeogenic gene expression in cultured cells.
403 12783775 Hepatic Foxo1-Delta256 production resulted in inhibition of gluconeogenic activity, as evidenced by reduced PEPCK and G-6-Pase expression in the liver.
404 12783775 Furthermore, we showed that hepatic Foxo1 expression was deregulated as a result of insulin resistance in diabetic mice and that Foxo1-Delta256 interfered with Foxo1 function via competitive binding to target promoters.

409 12914928 Insulin rapidly and completely inhibits expression of the hepatic insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) genes.
410 12914928 However, we recently found that the regulation of the IGFBP1 but not the PEPCK or G6Pase genes by insulin was sensitive to rapamycin, an inhibitor of mTOR.

418 14559723 From Northern blot and enzymatic studies, we report that only phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) activity is induced at 24 h of fasting, whereas glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) activity is induced only from 48 h.
419 14559723 The new findings are that 1) the SI can quantitatively account for up to one-third of glucose production in prolonged fasting; 2) the induction of PEPCK is not sufficient by itself to trigger SI gluconeogenesis; 3) G-6-Pase likely plays a crucial role in this process; and 4) glutaminase and glycerokinase may play a key potentiating role in the latest times of fasting and in diabetes.

438 15228952 The activities of glycogen phosphorylase (GP) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) were analyzed in the homogenate.
439 15254873 Hepatic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity was measured.
440 15254873 Insulin signaling response was examined after insulin injection in the fast state by analyzing tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR) and the association between insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and IRS-2 with phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3-K).
441 15254873 After insulin administration in the fast state, tyrosine phosphorylation of IR and association of IRS-2 with PI3-K were higher in the EH and CL groups than in the CH group.
442 15281017 P yoelii glycosylphosphatidylinositols (GPIs) were extracted in chloroform:methanol:water (CMW) (10:10:3), purified by high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) and tested for their insulin-mimetic activities.
443 15281017 The effects of P yoelii GPIs on blood glucose were investigated in insulin-resistant C57BL/ks-db/db diabetic mice.
444 15281017 A single intravenous injection of GPIs (9 and 30 nmol/mouse) induced a significant dose-related decrease in blood glucose (P < .001), but insignificantly increased plasma insulin concentrations.
445 15281017 P yoelii GPIs in vitro (0.062 to 1 micromol/L) significantly stimulated lipogenesis in rat adipocytes in a dose-dependent manner both in the presence and absence of 10(-8) mol/L insulin (P < .01).
446 15281017 P yoelii GPIs stimulated pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDH-Pase) and inhibited both cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase A and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase).
447 15281017 P yoelii GPIs had no effect on the activity of the gluconeogenic enzymes fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
448 15364916 Leptin and insulin share some hypothalamic signaling molecules, but their central administration induces different effects on hepatic glucose fluxes.
449 15364916 Acute insulin infusion in the third cerebral ventricle inhibits endogenous glucose production (GP), whereas acute leptin infusion stimulates gluconeogenesis but does not alter GP because of a compensatory decrease in glycogenolysis.
450 15364916 Because melanocortin agonists also stimulate hepatic gluconeogenesis, here we examined whether central melanocortin blockade modifies the acute effects of leptin on GP, on gluconeogenesis, on glycogenolysis, and/or on the hepatic expression of the gluconeogenic enzymes glucose-6-phosphatase (Glc-6-Pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
451 15364916 Systemic or central administration of leptin alone did not alter GP, despite increasing both the rate of gluconeogenesis and the expression of Glc-6-Pase and PEPCK.
452 15364916 When activation of the central melanocortin pathway was prevented, the effects of leptin on gluconeogenesis, Glc-6-Pase, and PEPCK were abolished, and a marked suppression of glycogenolysis resulted in decreased GP.

463 15543094 The elevated levels of immunoglobulins, about 20% more muscle in the pulmonary arteries, increased airway smooth muscle cells, and increased fetal hemoglobin and erythropoietin are evidence of chronic hypoxia before death.
464 15543094 These proinflammatory cytokines down-regulate gene expression of major cytochrome P-450 and/or other enzymes with the specific effects on mRNA levels, protein expression, and enzyme activity, thus affecting metabolism of several endogenous lipophilic substances, such as steroids, lipid-soluble vitamins, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes, and exogenous substances.
465 15543094 PEPCK deficit found in SIDS infants (caused also by vitamin A deficiency) and eventually enhanced by PACAP lipolysis of adipocyte triglycerides resulted in an increased FA level in blood because of their impaired reesterification to triacylglycerol in adipocytes.
466 15543094 Pulmonary edema and petechial hemorrhages often present in SIDS victims may be the result of the vascular leak syndrome caused by IL-2 and IFN-alpha.
467 15543094 Chronic hypoxia with the release of proinflammatory mediators IL-1alpha, IL-1beta and IL-6, and overloading of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems due to the narrowing airways and small pulmonary arteries of these children could also contribute to the development of these abnormalities.
468 15543094 Moreover, chronic hypoxia of SIDS infants induced also production of hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha), which stimulated synthesis and release of different growth factors by vascular endothelial cells and intensified subclinical inflammatory reactions in the central nervous system, perhaps potentiated also by PACAP and VIP gene mutations.
469 15554902 Deficiency of PDK1 in liver results in glucose intolerance, impairment of insulin-regulated gene expression and liver failure.
470 15554902 To study the function of the PDK1 (3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1) signalling pathway in mediating insulin's actions in the liver, we employed CRE recombinase/loxP technology to generate L(liver)-PDK1-/- mice, which lack expression of PDK1 in hepatocytes and in which insulin failed to induce activation of PKB in liver.
471 15554902 The glucose intolerance of the L-PDK1-/- mice may be due to an inability of glucose to suppress hepatic glucose output through the gluconeogenic pathway, since the mRNA encoding hepatic PEPCK (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase), G6Pase (glucose-6-phosphatase) and SREBP1 (sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein 1), which regulate gluconeogenesis, are no longer controlled by feeding.
472 15554902 Furthermore, three other insulin-controlled genes, namely IGFBP1 (insulin-like-growth-factor-binding protein-1), IRS2 (insulin receptor substrate 2) and glucokinase, were regulated abnormally by feeding in the liver of PDK1-deficient mice.
473 15554902 These results establish that the PDK1 signalling pathway plays an important role in regulating glucose homoeostasis and controlling expression of insulin-regulated genes.
474 15588682 Merrill and Perry (Myrtaceae) (commonly referred to as clove) extract acts like insulin in hepatocytes and hepatoma cells by reducing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) gene expression.
475 15588682 Much like insulin, clove-mediated repression is reversed by PI3K inhibitors and N-acetylcysteine (NAC).
476 15616008 Excess tissue glucocorticoid action may contribute to the hyperglycemia and insulin resistance associated with type 2 diabetes, but the associated mechanisms are poorly understood. 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1) converts inactive 11-dehydrocorticosterone into active corticosterone, thus amplifying glucocorticoid receptor-mediated tissue glucocorticoid action, particularly in the liver.
477 15616008 To examine the role of tissue glucocorticoid action in type 2 diabetes, we analyzed expression of glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 and their regulation by endogenous hormones in vivo and in vitro in hepatocytes from db/db mice (a model of type 2 diabetes).
478 15616008 We observed positive relations between expression of both glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 in liver and insulin sensitivity and expression of PEPCK mRNA in db/db mice and db/+ controls.
479 15616008 Increased expression of glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 in the liver of db/db mice was correlated with elevated circulating levels of corticosterone, insulin, and blood glu-cose.
480 15616008 Treatment of db/db mice with glucocorticoid antagonist RU486 reversed the increases in the expression of glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 within the liver and attenuated the phenotype of type 2 diabetes.
481 15616008 Addition of corticosterone to db/db mouse primary hepatocytes activated expression of glucocorticoid receptor, 11beta-HSD1, and PEPCK, and these effects were abolished by RU486.
482 15616008 Incubation of primary hepatocytes with increasing concentrations of glucose caused dose-dependent increases in glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 expression, whereas insulin did not affect the expression of 11beta-HSD1 and glucocorticoid receptor in primary hepatocytes.
483 15616008 These findings suggest that activation of glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 expression within the liver may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes in db/db mice.
484 15616008 Excess tissue glucocorticoid action may contribute to the hyperglycemia and insulin resistance associated with type 2 diabetes, but the associated mechanisms are poorly understood. 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1) converts inactive 11-dehydrocorticosterone into active corticosterone, thus amplifying glucocorticoid receptor-mediated tissue glucocorticoid action, particularly in the liver.

490 15616008 Incubation of primary hepatocytes with increasing concentrations of glucose caused dose-dependent increases in glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 expression, whereas insulin did not affect the expression of 11beta-HSD1 and glucocorticoid receptor in primary hepatocytes.
491 15616008 These findings suggest that activation of glucocorticoid receptor and 11beta-HSD1 expression within the liver may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes in db/db mice.
492 15649433 Expression of the KLF15 gene in mouse liver was also down-regulated by a euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp and was increased by inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.
493 15649433 In cultured rat hepatocytes, KLF15 gene expression was induced by dexamethasone and a non-hydrolyzing analog of cAMP, and this effect was inhibited by insulin in a manner dependent on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling.
494 15649433 Forced expression of KLF15 in cultured hepatocytes increased both the expression and the promoter activity of the gene for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
495 15649433 These results suggest that insulin and its counteracting hormones regulate the hepatic expression of KLF15, and that this transcription factor contributes to the regulation of PEPCK gene expression in the liver.
496 15649433 Expression of the KLF15 gene in mouse liver was also down-regulated by a euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp and was increased by inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.
497 15649433 In cultured rat hepatocytes, KLF15 gene expression was induced by dexamethasone and a non-hydrolyzing analog of cAMP, and this effect was inhibited by insulin in a manner dependent on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling.
498 15649433 Forced expression of KLF15 in cultured hepatocytes increased both the expression and the promoter activity of the gene for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
499 15649433 These results suggest that insulin and its counteracting hormones regulate the hepatic expression of KLF15, and that this transcription factor contributes to the regulation of PEPCK gene expression in the liver.
500 15671906 Among these mouse models, we will discuss transgenic mice overexpressing key gluconeogenic enzymes (PEPCK, G6Pase) or transcription factors (Foxo1, Pgc1-alpha) that control de novo glucose synthesis.
501 15679918 It is possible that the insulin secreting liver cells will be destroyed by the immune system because hepatocytes express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules and exhibit constitutive Fas expression; moreover the liver has antigen presenting activity.
502 15679918 METHODS: To address this question, transgenic Non-Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice which express insulin in the liver were made using the Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase (PEPCK) promoter to drive the mouse insulin I gene (Ins).
503 15729617 In conclusion, stevioside was able to regulate blood glucose levels by enhancing not only insulin secretion, but also insulin utilization in insulin-deficient rats; the latter was due to decreased PEPCK gene expression in rat liver by stevioside's action of slowing down gluconeogenesis.
504 15738637 Receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase epsilon (PTPepsilonM) is a negative regulator of insulin signaling in primary hepatocytes and liver.
505 15738637 Transgenic studies revealed that PTP1B and TCPTP are primary candidates but IR of these animals can be finally dephosphorylated, suggesting that other PTPs are also involved in the dephosphorylation of IR.
506 15738637 Wild type as well as substrate-trapping DA forms of PTPepsilonM suppressed phosphorylation of IR downstream enzymes such as Akt, extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3).
507 15738637 It was also demonstrated that PTPepsilonM suppressed insulin-induced glycogen synthesis and inhibited insulin-induced suppression of phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) expression in primary hepatocytes.
508 15793235 Although total CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta) protein levels were suppressed, 20 mmol/l glucose increased the liver activating protein (LAP; an active isoform of C/EBPbeta)/liver inhibitory protein (LIP; an inhibitory isoform of C/EBPbeta) ratio significantly.
509 15793235 Chromatin immunoprecipitation studies of the endogenous PEPCK gene demonstrated an increased association of LAP with the cAMP response element of the promoter.
510 15793235 Using transient transfection to manipulate the LAP/LIP ratio, we also demonstrate a direct relationship between this ratio and PEPCK promoter activity.
511 15793235 An increased LAP/LIP ratio not only enhanced cAMP- and dexamethasone-induced PEPCK gene expression but also impaired the repressive effect of insulin.
512 15793235 These results demonstrate that sustained hyperglycemia diminishes the inhibitory effect of glucose and insulin on PEPCK expression and enhances hormone-stimulated PEPCK gene expression and hepatocellular glucose production.
513 15793235 Because prolonged hyperglycemia increases the LAP/LIP ratio and can potentiate hormone induction of PEPCK transcription, our results suggest that a hyperglycemia-driven increased LAP/LIP ratio may be a critical molecular event in the pathogenesis of increased HGP in diabetes.
514 15793235 Although total CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta) protein levels were suppressed, 20 mmol/l glucose increased the liver activating protein (LAP; an active isoform of C/EBPbeta)/liver inhibitory protein (LIP; an inhibitory isoform of C/EBPbeta) ratio significantly.
515 15793235 Chromatin immunoprecipitation studies of the endogenous PEPCK gene demonstrated an increased association of LAP with the cAMP response element of the promoter.

517 15793235 An increased LAP/LIP ratio not only enhanced cAMP- and dexamethasone-induced PEPCK gene expression but also impaired the repressive effect of insulin.
518 15793235 These results demonstrate that sustained hyperglycemia diminishes the inhibitory effect of glucose and insulin on PEPCK expression and enhances hormone-stimulated PEPCK gene expression and hepatocellular glucose production.
519 15793235 Because prolonged hyperglycemia increases the LAP/LIP ratio and can potentiate hormone induction of PEPCK transcription, our results suggest that a hyperglycemia-driven increased LAP/LIP ratio may be a critical molecular event in the pathogenesis of increased HGP in diabetes.
520 15793235 Although total CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta) protein levels were suppressed, 20 mmol/l glucose increased the liver activating protein (LAP; an active isoform of C/EBPbeta)/liver inhibitory protein (LIP; an inhibitory isoform of C/EBPbeta) ratio significantly.

543 16034410 RBP4 levels are normalized by rosiglitazone, an insulin-sensitizing drug.
544 16034410 Transgenic overexpression of human RBP4 or injection of recombinant RBP4 in normal mice causes insulin resistance.
545 16034410 Conversely, genetic deletion of Rbp4 enhances insulin sensitivity.
546 16034410 Fenretinide, a synthetic retinoid that increases urinary excretion of RBP4, normalizes serum RBP4 levels and improves insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in mice with obesity induced by a high-fat diet.

596 16169938 Investigation for possible mechanisms responsible for PEPCK suppression indicated that phosphorylation of cAMP-responsive element transcription factor (CREB) at Ser(133) was reduced remarkably by L803-mts, which was also associated with reduced phosphorylation at Ser(129) and no change in total CREB.
597 16169938 This suggested that PEPCK was suppressed by GSK-3 inhibition-mediated inactivation of CREB.
598 16169938 Our studies show that long-term treatment with GSK-3 inhibitor improves glucose homeostasis in ob/ob mice and demonstrates a novel role of GSK-3 in regulating hepatic CREB activity and expression of muscle GLUT4.

602 16176184 Insulin inhibits GSK3 by promoting phosphorylation of a serine residue (Ser-21 in GSK3alpha, Ser-9 in GSK3beta), thereby relieving GSK3 inhibition of glycogen synthesis in muscle.
603 16176184 GSK3 inhibition in liver reduces expression of the gluconeogenic genes PEPCK (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase), G6Pase (glucose-6-phosphatase), as well as IGFBP1 (insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1).
604 16176184 Interestingly, insulin injection of wild-type mice, which activates PKB (protein kinase B) and inhibits GSK3 to a greater degree than feeding (50% versus 25%), does not repress these genes.
605 16203117 Injection of myricetin three times daily for three consecutive days resulted in increased expression of the glucose transporter subtype 4 (GLUT 4) in soleus muscle and in reduced expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) in liver; these inductions were preventable by opioid mu-receptor blockade.
606 16203117 Findings support the conclusion that the plasma glucose-lowering action of myricetin in insulin-deficient animals is mediated by activation of opioid mu-receptors of peripheral tissues in response to increased beta-endorphin secretion.
607 16203117 Opioid mu-receptor activation is held responsible for the enhancement of muscle GLUT 4 gene expression and the attenuation of hepatic PEPCK gene expression observed in these myricetin-treated diabetic animals.

611 16203173 Other studies have shown defects in insulin signaling possibly secondary to activation of Protein Kinase C resulting from the accumulation of active fatty acyl CoA's.
612 16203173 In vivo it has been shown that rats over-expressing the gluconeogenic enzyme Phosphoenol Pyruvate Carboxykinase (PEPCK) develop insulin resistance in fat and muscle tissues and some features of the metabolic syndrome including mild obesity and dyslipidemia.
613 16203173 Obesity resulting from excess nutrient intake can also cause insulin resistance by an increase in the production of agents that impair insulin action such as TNFalpha and resistin and a decrease in the production of an insulin sensitizing compound adiponectin.
614 16306366 In addition, we observed that beta-less mice have impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion and exhibit an increase in liver PEPCK gene expression in the fed state, suggesting that they have increased gluconeogenesis.

657 16394521 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), a member of the nuclear receptor of ligand-activated transcription factors, regulates the expression of key genes involved in lipid and glucose metabolism or adipocyte differentiation.
658 16394521 Using a GAL-4/PPARgamma transactivation assay, 20(S)-protopanaxatriol (PPT), one of the ginsenoside metabolites, was found to increase PPARgamma-transactivation activity dose-dependently with similar activity as troglitazone, a well-known PPARgamma agonist.
659 16394521 PPT enhanced adipogenesis by increasing the expression of PPARgamma target genes such as aP2, LPL and PEPCK.
660 16394521 These results indicate that PPT can be developed as a PPARgamma agonist for the improvement of insulin resistance associated with diabetes.
661 16443757 Transgenic mice with increased adipose tissue glyceroneogenesis, caused by overexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), show increased FFA reesterification and develop obesity but are insulin sensitive.
662 16443757 Furthermore, circulating leptin and FFA concentrations increased to similar levels in transgenic and control mice, while adiponectin levels decreased in transgenic mice compared with controls.
663 16443757 These results indicate that increased PEPCK expression in the presence of high-fat feeding may have deleterious effects and lead to severe insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

667 16458327 These results suggest that modulation of hepatic PEPCK gene expression by chronic exercise training might be related to the enhancement of insulin sensitivity.
668 16505249 In conclusion, our results provide novel mechanisms for the plasma glucose-lowering action of metformin, via an increase of beta-endorphin secretion from adrenal glands to stimulate opioid mu-receptor linkage, leading to an increase of GLUT-4 gene expression and an attenuation of hepatic PEPCK gene expression in STZ-induced diabetic rats.
669 16741579 Critical role of stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) in the onset of diet-induced hepatic insulin resistance.
670 16741579 Mice with a targeted disruption of Scd1 gene locus are lean and display increased insulin sensitivity.
671 16741579 To examine whether Scd1 activity is required for the development of diet-induced hepatic insulin resistance, we used a sequence-specific antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASO) to lower hepatic Scd1 expression in rats and mice with diet-induced insulin resistance.
672 16741579 Insulin clamp studies revealed severe hepatic insulin resistance in high-fat-fed rats and mice that was completely reversed by 5 days of treatment with Scd1 ASO.
673 16741579 Downregulation of Scd1 also led to increased Akt phosphorylation and marked decreases in the expression of glucose-6-phosphatase (Glc-6-Pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).
674 16741579 Thus, Scd1 is required for the onset of diet-induced hepatic insulin resistance.

817 19252289 These results provide possible mechanisms for the anti-diabetic effects of NHF, via a decrease of blood glucose level, an increase of insulin sensitivity, an increase of GLUT-4 gene expression and an attenuation of hepatic PEPCK gene expression.

826 19264844 The regulation of expression of gluconeogenic genes including glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) in the liver plays an important role in glucose homeostasis, because aberrant expression of these genes contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes.
827 19264844 Herein we demonstrate that phosphorylated STAT3 is required for repression of G6Pase expression by IL-6 in both HepG2 cells and mouse liver.
828 19264844 Interestingly, PEPCK expression is regulated by STAT3 independent of IL-6 activation.
829 19264844 Using in vivo chromatin immunoprecipitation, we demonstrate that STAT3 binds to the promoters of the G6Pase, PEPCK, and suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)3 genes, and its recruitment increases at the G6Pase and SOCS3 promoters with IL-6 treatment.
830 19264844 Whereas persistent recruitment of RNA polymerase II is seen on the SOCS3 promoter, consistent with its induction by IL-6, a decrease in polymerase II recruitment and histone H4 acetylation is seen at the G6Pase promoter with IL-6 treatment.

841 19549853 SirT1 knockdown in liver decreases basal hepatic glucose production and increases hepatic insulin responsiveness in diabetic rats.
842 19549853 Because Sirtuin 1 (SirT1) induces hepatic gluconeogenesis during fasting through the induction of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase kinase (PEPCK), fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase), and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) gene transcription, we hypothesized that reducing SirT1, by using an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO), would decrease fasting hyperglycemia in a rat model of T2DM.
843 19549853 Whole body insulin sensitivity was also increased in the SirT1 ASO treated rats as reflected by a 25% increase in the glucose infusion rate required to maintain euglycemia during the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and could entirely be attributed to increased suppression of hepatic glucose production by insulin.
844 19549853 The reduction in basal and clamped rates of glucose production could in turn be attributed to decreased expression of PEPCK, FBPase, and G6Pase due to increased acetylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), forkhead box O1 (FOXO1), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator 1alpha (PGC-1alpha), known substrates of SirT1.

885 19769745 Circulating tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) levels, which are elevated in obesity-associated insulin resistance and diabetes, inhibit insulin signalling at several points in the signalling cascade.
886 19769745 As the transcription factor Foxa2 has been implicated, in part, in the regulation of gluconeogenic genes, we studied the effects of TNFalpha and/or insulin on its cellular status in hepatocytes, followed by an assessment of its occupancy on the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) promoter.

927 20363216 The treatment also showed a significant improvement in altered enzyme activities of pyruvate kinase (PK) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and their mRNA expression levels.
928 20655898 Recent evidence suggests that the forkhead transcription factor Foxo1 plays an important role in the regulation of glucose and triglyceride metabolism at the gene transcription level for glucose-6 phosphatase (G6Pase), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), and apolipoprotein C-III (apoC-III).
929 20664725 Furthermore, significantly higher glucokinase (GK) activity and lower phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) activity were observed in HF-RB and HF-PA mice compared with that of the NC and HF ones.
930 20797423 Here we show that ER stress triggers a significant increase in expression of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBPβ) and phosphorylated CREB together with reduced phospho-AMP-activated protein kinase (pAMPK) in hepatoma cells.
931 20797423 Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrate that C/EBPβ is recruited to the PEPCK promoter during ER stress and is reversed by pre-treatment with a JNK inhibitor that relieves ER stress.
932 20797423 C/EBPβ but not pCREB was suppressed by the AMPK-activator AICAR or constitutively active AMPK, while dominant negative AMPK increased C/EBPβ expression.
933 20797423 These data suggest that ER stress triggers suppression of AMPK while increasing C/EBPβ and pCREB expression which activates PEPCK gene transcription.

938 20934416 Thus, it is concluded that: (1) the inhibition of NADPH oxidase might contribute to lowered rate of renal gluconeogenesis, probably due to decreasing PEPCK activity; (2) inhibition of renal gluconeogenesis is involved in apocynin hypoglycaemic action in vivo; (3) apocynin might be beneficial for diabetes treatment.
939 21088934 To investigate insulin sensitivity within the liver, serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 (Ser307) and Akt (Ser473) and expression of gluconeogenic genes, PEPCK and G6Pase, were tested.

945 21163329 Direct regulation of glucose and not insulin on hepatic hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1.
946 21163329 Abnormal hepatic gluconeogenesis contributes significantly to both fasting and non-fasting hyperglycemia of patients with type 2 diabetes. 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) regulates the key hepatic gluconeogenic enzymes including phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) through the amplification of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) - mediated tissue glucocorticoid action, and is crucially dependent on hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (H6PDH) - generating NADPH system.
947 21163329 Moreover, incubation of primary hepatocytes with increasing glucose caused dose-dependent increases in H6PDH, 11β-HSD1, GR, PEPCK and G6Pase expression.
948 21163329 In addition, primary hepatocytes treated with different doses of insulin in high glucose induced alteration of H6PDH and 11β-HSD1 while in low glucose there was no significant effect.
949 21163329 These findings suggest that glucose instead of insulin directly regulates H6PDH and 11β-HSD1 and suppression of the two enzymes could be considered as an effective target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

988 21965330 Hepatic Sirt1 deficiency in mice impairs mTorc2/Akt signaling and results in hyperglycemia, oxidative damage, and insulin resistance.
989 21965330 The protein encoded by the sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) gene, which is a mouse homolog of yeast Sir2, is implicated in the regulation of glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity; however, the underlying mechanism remains elusive.
990 21965330 Here, using mice with a liver-specific null mutation of Sirt1, we have identified a signaling pathway involving Sirt1, Rictor (a component of mTOR complex 2 [mTorc2]), Akt, and Foxo1 that regulates gluconeogenesis.
991 21965330 We found that Sirt1 positively regulates transcription of the gene encoding Rictor, triggering a cascade of phosphorylation of Akt at S473 and Foxo1 at S253 and resulting in decreased transcription of the gluconeogenic genes glucose-6-phosphatase (G6pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (Pepck).
992 21965330 This oxidative stress disrupted mTorc2 and impaired mTorc2/Akt signaling in other insulin-sensitive organs, leading to insulin resistance that could be largely reversed with antioxidant treatment.
993 21965330 These data delineate a pathway through which Sirt1 maintains insulin sensitivity and suggest that treatment with antioxidants might provide protection against progressive insulin resistance in older human populations.

1011 22688332 Taken together, these results reveal what we believe to be a novel site of action of nesfatin-1 on HGP and the PEPCK/InsR/IRS-1/AMPK/Akt/TORC2 pathway and suggest that hypothalamic nesfatin-1 action through a neural-mediated pathway can contribute to increased peripheral and hepatic insulin sensitivity by decreasing gluconeogenesis and promoting peripheral glucose uptake in vivo.
