Hepatic glucokinase regulatory protein and carbohydrate response element binding protein attenuation reduce de novo lipogenesis but do not mitigate intrahepatic triglyceride accumulation in Aldob deficiency
Stable isotope studies have shown that hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of intrahepatic lipid (IHL) deposition. Furthermore, previous research has demonstrated that fructose 1-phosphate (F1P) not only serves as a substrate for DNL, but also acts as a sign...

Summary: | Stable isotope studies have shown that hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of intrahepatic lipid (IHL) deposition. Furthermore, previous research has demonstrated that fructose 1-phosphate (F1P) not only serves as a substrate for DNL, but also acts as a signalling metabolite that stimulates DNL from glucose. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mediators of F1P-stimulated DNL, with special focus on two key regulators of intrahepatic glucose metabolism, i.e., glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP) and carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP).
Aldolase B deficient mice (Aldob−/−), characterized by hepatocellular F1P accumulation, enhanced DNL, and hepatic steatosis, were either crossed with GKRP deficient mice (Gckr−/−) or treated with short hairpin RNAs directed against hepatic ChREBP.
Aldob−/− mice showed higher rates of de novo palmitate synthesis from glucose when compared to wildtype mice (p |
