Local and systemic insulin resistance resulting from hepatic activation of IKK-β and NF-κB
Open accessAbstract
We show that NF-kappaB and transcriptional targets are activated in liver by obesity and high-fat diet (HFD). We have matched this state of chronic, subacute 'inflammation' by low-level activation of NF-kappaB in the liver of transgenic mice, designated LIKK, by selectively expressing constitutively active IKK-b in hepatocytes. These mice exhibit a type 2 diabetes phenotype, characterized by hyperglycemia, profound hepatic insulin resistance, and moderate systemic insulin resistance, including effects in muscle. The hepatic production of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, IL-1beta and TNF-alpha, was increased in LIKK mice to a similar extent as induced by HFD in in wild-type mice. Parallel increases were observed in cytokine signaling in liver and mucscle of LIKK mice. Insulin resistance was improved by systemic neutralization of IL-6 or salicylate inhibition of IKK-beta. Hepatic expression of the IkappaBalpha superrepressor (LISR) reversed the phenotype of both LIKK mice and wild-type mice fed an HFD. These findings indicate that lipid accumulation in the liver leads to subacute hepatic 'inflammation' through NF-kappaB activation and downstream cytokine production. This causes insulin resistance both locally in liver and systemically.

Inhibition or inactivation of JNK or IKK improves insulin sensitivity in various insulin-resistant models and reduces inhibitory IRS-1 serine phosphorylation.
“In contrast, inhibition or inactivation of JNK (18,26) or IKK (22,24,25,27) improves insulin sensitivity in various models of insulin resistance in association with reduced inhibitory serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 (18).”

Many insulin-resistant states, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and lipid/heparin infusion, are associated with increased JNK and/or IKK activation together with inhibitory IRS-1 serine phosphorylation.
“Along these lines, numerous insulin-resistant states (e.g., obesity, type 2 diabetes, and lipid/heparin infusion) are associated with increased activation of JNK (18,21) and/or IKK (21)(22)(23)(24)(25) in parallel with inhibitory serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 (18,21).”

Inhibiting NF-κB improves hepatic insulin sensitivity.
“On the other hand, inhibition of NF-κB (25) or knockout of IKKβ in the hepatocyte (24) improves hepatic insulin sensitivity, indicating that when intrahepatocyte inflammatory pathways are blocked, the ability of the paracrine effects of activated Kupffer cells to cause liver insulin resistance is attenuated.”

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.
