Abstract

The worldwide prevalence of obesity‐associated pathologies, including type 2 diabetes, requires thorough investigation of mechanisms and interventions. Recent studies have highlighted thyroid hormone analogs and derivatives as potential agents able to counteract such pathologies. In this study, in rats receiving a high‐fat diet (HFD), we analyzed the effects of a 4‐wk daily administration of a naturally occurring iodothyronine, 3,5‐diiodo‐L‐thyronine (T2), on the gastrocnemius muscle metabolic/structural phenotype and insulin signaling. The HFD‐induced increases in muscle levels of fatty acid translocase (3‐fold; P <0.05) and TGs (2‐fold, P <0.05) were prevented by T2 (each; P <0.05 vs. HFD). T2 increased insulin‐stimulated Akt phosphorylation levels (~2.5‐fold; P <0.05 vs. HFD). T2 induced these effects while sparing muscle mass and without cardiac hypertrophy. T2 increased the muscle contents of fast/glycolytic fibers (2‐fold; P <0.05 vs. HFD) and sarcolemmal glucose transporter 4 (3‐fold; P <0.05 vs. HFD). Adipocyte differentiation‐related protein was predominantly present within the slow/oxidative fibers in HFD‐T2. In T2‐treated rats ( vs. HFD), glycolytic enzymes and associated components were up‐regulated (proteomic analysis, significance limit: 2‐fold; P <0.05), as was phosphofructokinase activity (by 1.3‐fold; P <0.05), supporting the metabolic shift toward a more glycolytic phenotype. These results highlight T2 as a potential therapeutic approach to the treatment of diet‐induced metabolic dysfunctions.—Moreno, M., Silvestri, E., De Matteis, R., de Lange, P., Lombardi, A., Glinni, D., Senese, R., Cioffi, F., Salzano, A.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • 3,5-T2 prevents insulin resistance in skeletal muscle of rats fed a high-fat diet and increases GLUT4 protein expression and insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation.

    “These results are in accordance with the finding that 3,5-T2 prevents insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of rats fed on a high-fat diet and increases GLUT4 (SLC2A4) protein expression and insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation (Moreno et al. 2011).”
  • Prolonged high-fat diet exposure gradually decreases the early oxidative adaptation, ultimately resulting in fiber type shift toward glycolytic fibers and eventual development of insulin resistance.

    “This adaptation, however, gradually decreases with prolonged high-fat diet exposure, ultimately resulting in fiber type shift towards glycolytic fibers and the eventual development of insulin resistance [8, 9].”

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.
