BAIBA attenuates insulin resistance and inflammation induced by palmitate or a high fat diet via an AMPK–PPARδ-dependent pathway in mice
Open accessAbstract
Aims/hypothesis We explored the effects of β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) on hyperlipidaemic-condition-induced insulin resistance and inflammation as mediated through a signalling pathway involving AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ (PPARδ). Methods Mouse skeletal muscle C2C12 cells and C57BL/6J mice were treated with palmitate or a high-fat diet (HFD) and BAIBA. Inflammation and the expression of genes associated with insulin signalling were determined by western blot and quantitative real-time PCR. Selected genes from candidate pathways were evaluated by small interfering (si)RNA knockdown and specific inhibitors. Results BAIBA treatment ameliorated impairment of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1/Akt-mediated insulin signalling in palmitate-treated C2C12 myocytes and in skeletal muscle of HFD-fed mice. In addition, BAIBA treatment reversed HFD-induced increases in body weight and improved impaired glucose tolerance in mice. In vitro and in vivo, inhibitory κBα (IκBα) phosphorylation, nuclear factor κB (NFκB) nuclear translocation and downstream inflammatory cytokines were significantly suppressed by BAIBA. Furthermore, BAIBA treatment significantly induced AMPK phosphorylation and expression of PPARδ in C2C12 myocytes and in skeletal muscle of mice. Both compound C, an AMPK inhibitor, and Pparδ (also known as Ppard) siRNA abrogated the inhibitory effects of BAIBA on palmitate-induced inflammation and insulin resistance. BAIBA significantly induced the expression of genes associated with fatty acid oxidation, such as carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (Cpt1), acyl-CoA oxidase (Aco; also known as Acox1) and fatty acid binding protein 3 (Fabp3); this effect of BAIBA was significantly reduced by compound C and Pparδ siRNA. Conclusions/interpretation These results are the first to demonstrate that BAIBA attenuates insulin resistance, suppresses inflammation and induces fatty acid oxidation via the AMPK-PPARδ pathway in skeletal muscle.

BAIBA promotes increased visceral adipose tissue lipolysis, increased free fatty acid oxidation, and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle.
“BAIBA promotes increased VAT lipolysis, increased FFA oxidation, and glucose uptake in SkM [110,111,112].”
From The Role of Exercise in the Interplay between Myokines, Hepatokines, Osteokines, Adipokines, and Modulation of Inflammation for Energy Substrate Redistribution and Fat Mass Loss: A Review (2020) · cites this paper as [111]
The Results section reports that BAIBA increased fatty-acid-oxidation-associated gene expression in mouse skeletal muscle. It also reports improved insulin signalling and glucose tolerance, but not a direct measurement of skeletal-muscle glucose uptake. The passages do not report increased visceral adipose tissue lipolysis. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredβ-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) attenuates insulin resistance, improves glucose tolerance, and promotes browning of white adipose tissue and hepatic β-oxidation.
“For example, β‐aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA), a novel exercise‐induced muscle factor, attenuates insulin resistance, improves glucose tolerance, and promotes the browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) and hepatic β‐oxidation (Roberts et al, 2014; Jung et al, 2015).”

In C2C12 mouse myocytes and a wild-type mouse model, BAIBA treatment attenuated insulin resistance, reduced inflammation and increased fatty acid oxidation through AMPK and AMPK-PPARδ-dependent pathways in skeletal muscle.
“In another study using C2C12 mouse myocytes and a wild-type mouse model (palmitate or high-fat diet exposure), BAIBA treatment attenuated insulin resistance, reduced inflammation and increased fatty acid oxidation through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and a AMPK-PPARδ-dependent pathway in skeletal muscle113.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
