Our previous studies demonstrated that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) activation reduces weight gain and improves insulin sensitivity in obese mice. Since excess lipid accumulation in non-adipose tissues is suggested to be responsible for the development of insulin resistance, this study was undertaken to examine whether the lemon balm extract ALS-L1023 regulates hepatic lipid accumulation, obesity, and insulin resistance and to determine whether its mechanism of action involves PPARα. Administration of ALS-L1023 to high-fat-diet-induced obese mice caused reductions in body weight gain, visceral fat mass, and visceral adipocyte size without changes of food consumption profiles. ALS-L1023 improved hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, glucose and insulin tolerance, and normalized insulin-positive β-cell area in obese mice. ALS-L1023 decreased hepatic lipid accumulation and concomitantly increased the expression of PPARα target genes responsible for fatty acid β-oxidation in livers. In accordance with the in vivo data, ALS-L1023 reduced lipid accumulation and stimulated PPARα reporter gene expression in HepG2 cells. These effects of ALS-L1023 were comparable to those of the PPARα ligand fenofibrate, while the PPARα antagonist GW6471 inhibited the actions of ALS-L1023 on lipid accumulation and PPARα luciferase activity in HepG2 cells. Higher phosphorylated protein kinase B (pAkt)/Akt ratios and lower expression of gluconeogenesis genes were observed in the livers of ALS-L1023-treated mice. These results indicate that ALS-L1023 may inhibit obesity and improve insulin sensitivity in part through inhibition of hepatic lipid accumulation via hepatic PPARα activation.

Non-alcoholic steatosis and insulin resistance are critical health problems and cause metabolic complications worldwide. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. (PM) against hepatic lipid accumulation and insulin resistance by using in vitro and in vivo models. PM extract significantly attenuated the accumulation of lipid droplets and hepatic triglyceride in free fatty acid (FFA)-exposed HepG2 cells. PM extract increased the AMPK and ACC phosphorylation and GLUT4 expression, whose levels were downregulated in FFA-exposed cells. PM extract also decreased precursor and mature forms of SREBP-1 in FFA-exposed cells. C57BL/6 mice fed with normal diet (ND) or high-fat diet (HFD) were administered PM extract (100 mg/kg) or vehicle orally for 16 weeks. PM extract attenuated the increases of the epididymal and perirenal fats on HFD feeding. PM extract markedly reduced hepatic lipid accumulation and fasting glucose levels, and improved glucose and insulin sensitivity in HFD-fed mice. HFD-fed mice decreased the AMPK and ACC phosphorylation and GLUT4 expression, and increased precursor and mature forms of SREBP-1; these changes were significantly restored by PM extract. In conclusion, PM extract alleviates non-alcoholic steatosis and insulin resistance through modulating the expression of proteins on lipid metabolism and glucose transport in the liver.

Abstract BackgroundNuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is reportedly involved in hepatic lipid metabolism, but the results are contradictory and the underlying mechanism thus remains unclear. Herein we focused on elucidating the effects of Nrf2 on hepatic adipogenesis and on determining the possible underlying mechanism. We established a metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) model in high fat diet (HFD) fed Nrf2 knockout (Nrf2 KO) mice; further, a cell model of lipid accumulation was established using mouse primary hepatocytes (MPHs) treated with free fatty acids (FAs). Using these models, we investigated the relationship between Nrf2 and autophagy and its role in the development of MAFLD.ResultsWe observed that Nrf2 expression levels were up-regulated in patients with MAFLD and diet-induced obese mice. Nrf2 deficiency led to hepatic lipid accumulation in vivo and in vitro, in addition to, promoting lipogenesis mainly by increasing SREBP-1 activity. Moreover, Nrf2 deficiency attenuated autophagic flux and inhibited the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes in vivo and in vitro. Weakened autophagy caused reduced lipolysis in the liver. Importantly, Chromatin immunoprecipitation-qPCR (ChIP-qPCR) and dual-luciferase assay results proved that Nrf2 bound to LAMP1 promoter and regulated its transcriptional activity. We accordingly report that Nrf2-LAMP1 interaction has an indispensable role in Nrf2-regulated hepatosteatosis. ConclusionsThese data collectively confirm that Nrf2 deficiency promotes hepatosteatosis by enhancing SREBP-1 activity and attenuating autophagy. To conclude, our data reveal a novel multi-pathway effect of Nrf2 on lipid metabolism in the liver, and we believe that multi-target intervention of Nrf2 signaling is a promising new strategy for the prevention and treatment of MAFLD.
