Obesity-induced elevated palmitic acid promotes inflammation and glucose metabolism disorders through GPRs/NF-κB/KLF7 pathway
Abstract Objective Our previous results have shown that obesity-induced excessive palmitic acid (PA) can promote the expression of KLF7, which plays a vital role in regulation of inflammation, glucose metabolism. But the exact mechanism of PA up-regulating the expression of KLF7 is not clear yet. Th...

description | Abstract Objective Our previous results have shown that obesity-induced excessive palmitic acid (PA) can promote the expression of KLF7, which plays a vital role in regulation of inflammation, glucose metabolism. But the exact mechanism of PA up-regulating the expression of KLF7 is not clear yet. This study is intend to explore whether PA promoting KLF7 expression through GPRs/NF-κB signaling pathway, causing inflammation and glucose metabolism disorders. Methods Cells were blocked GPRs/NF-κB under PA stimulation in vitro to demonstrate the molecular mechanism of PA up-regulates KLF7 expression. The regulatory effect of p65 on KLF7 was detected by luciferase reporter gene assay. Blocking GPRs/NF-κB in diet-induced obesity mice to detect the expression of KLF7, inflammatory cytokines and glucose metabolism related factors, clarifying the effects of GPRs/NF-κB on KLF7 in vivo. Results In 3T3-L1 adipocytes and HepG2 cells, PA could up-regulate the expression of KLF7 by promoting the GPR40/120-NF-κB signaling pathway, leading to inflammation and reduced glucose consumption (p < 0.05 for both). Luciferase reporter gene assay and ChIP assay showed that p65 could transcriptionally up-regulates the expression of KLF7. In high-fat diet (HFD) mice, after intraperitoneal injection of GPR40 or GPR120 blocker, the levels of p-p65 and KLF7 in epididymal white adipose tissue and liver were significantly decreased (p < 0.05 for both). Pharmacological inhibition of p-p65 significantly attenuated KLF7 expression and improved glucose tolerant and insulin sensitive (p < 0.05 for both). Conclusions Our results indicate that obesity-induced elevated palmitic acid promotes inflammation and glucose metabolism disorders through GPRs/NF-κB/KLF7 signaling pathway. |
