Summary: | The purpose of this study was to examine whether endogenous GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) could respond to exercise training in mice, as well as whether dihydromyricetin (DHM) supplementation could enhance GLP-1 levels in response to exercise training. After 2 weeks of exercise intervention, we found that GLP-1 levels were significantly elevated. A reshaped gut microbiota was identified following exercise, as evidenced by the increased abundance of Bifidobacterium, Lactococcus, and Alistipes genus, which are involved in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Antibiotic treatment negated exercise-induced GLP-1 secretion, which could be reversed with gut microbiota transplantation. Additionally, the combined intervention (DHM and exercise) was modeled in mice. Surprisingly, the combined intervention resulted in higher GLP-1 levels than the exercise intervention alone. In exercised mice supplemented with DHM, the gut microbiota composition changed as well, while the amount of SCFAs was unchanged in the stools. Additionally, DHM treatment induced intracellular cAMP in vitro and down-regulated the gene and protein expression of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) both in vivo and in vitro. Collectively, the auxo-action of exercise on GLP-1 secretion is associated with the gut-microbiota-SCFAs axis. Moreover, our findings suggest that DHM interacts synergistically with exercise to enhance GLP-1 levels by stimulating cAMP and inhibiting DPP-4. |
