| abstractText | Hepatic insulin resistance (IR) is often said to be "pathway-selective" with preserved insulin stimulation of de novo lipogenesis (DNL) despite attenuated insulin signaling toward glucose metabolism. However, DNL has not been assessed in models of liver-specific IR. We studied mice with differential tissue-specific lipid-induced IR achieved by different durations of high-fat diet (HFD) feeding. Mice with isolated hepatic IR demonstrated markedly reduced DNL, with a rebound seen in mice with whole-body IR. Insr (T1150A) mice (protected against diacylglycerol-PKCepsilon-induced hepatic IR) maintained normal DNL with HFD feeding. During hyperinsulinemic clamps, hepatic IR reduced DNL, but hyperglycemia augmented DNL in both resistant and sensitive animals. Regulation through SREBP1c did not consistently correlate with changes in DNL. These results demonstrate that hepatic IR is not pathway-selective, highlighting the primacy of lipogenic substrate in stimulation of DNL. Future therapeutics to reduce lipogenesis should target substrate drivers of DNL rather than targeting plasma insulin levels. |
