Abstract

Fasting hyperglycemia, a prominent finding in diabetes, is primarily due to increased gluconeogenesis. The transcription factor Foxo1 links insulin signaling to decreased transcription of PEPCK and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) and provides a possible therapeutic target in insulin-resistant states. Synthetic, optimized antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) specifically inhibit Foxo1 expression. Here we show the effect of such therapy on insulin resistance in mice with diet-induced obesity (DIO). Reducing Foxo1 mRNA expression with ASO therapy in mouse hepatocytes decreased levels of Foxo1 protein and mRNA expression of PEPCK by 48 ± 4% and G6Pase by 64 ± 3%. In mice with DIO and insulin resistance, Foxo1 ASO therapy lowered plasma glucose concentration and the rate of basal endogenous glucose production. In addition, Foxo1 ASO therapy lowered both hepatic triglyceride and diacylglycerol content and improved hepatic insulin sensitivity. Foxo1 ASO also improved adipocyte insulin action. At a tissue-specific level, this manifested as improved insulin-mediated 2-deoxyglucose uptake and suppression of lipolysis. On a whole-body level, the result was improved glucose tolerance after an intraperitoneal glucose load and increased insulin-stimulated whole-body glucose disposal during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. In conclusion, Foxo1 ASO therapy improved both hepatic insulin and peripheral insulin action. Foxo1 is a potential therapeutic target for improving insulin resistance.

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.
