Regulation of AMPA receptor acetylation and translation by SIRT2 and AMPK: the molecular mechanisms and implications in memory formationWang, Guan 07 December 2016 (has links)
The α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPARs) are ligand-gated glutamatergic ion channels that mediate most excitatory neurotransmission in the brain. Alterations in AMPAR synaptic accumulation mediate synaptic plasticity, including long-term potentiation, long-term depression and homeostatic synaptic plasticity. AMPAR abundance in neurons is determined by balanced processes of protein translation and degradation. Changes in AMPAR function and trafficking have direct impacts on synaptic transmission and cognitive functions. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating AMPAR expression and dynamics in neurons remain largely unknown. In this thesis, two molecular mechanisms that regulate AMPAR translation and protein stability through two different signaling pathways, 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), are described.
It is shown that SIRT2, a NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase, directly controls AMPAR stability by regulating AMPAR acetylation. For the first time, we discovered that AMPARs are subject to lysine acetylation, a novel form of post-translational modification for glutamate receptors. Under basal conditions, AMPARs are highly acetylated at their intracellular C termini, which protects against ubiquitination to antagonize AMPAR endocytosis and degradation, leading to prolonged receptor half-life. SIRT2 is also identified as the enzyme responsible for AMPAR deacetylation. Knockdown of SIRT2 led to elevated AMPAR acetylation and reduced ubiquitination, and consequently, increased AMPAR levels and synaptic transmission. SIRT2 knockout mice displayed weakened synaptic plasticity and impaired learning and memory.
Resveratrol is a phytoalexin that has been shown to increase AMPAR expression and synaptic accumulation in neurons. The resveratrol effect on AMPAR expression is independent of sirtuin 1, the conventional target of resveratrol, but rather is mediated by AMPK and its downstream phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway. Application of the AMPK activator, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-β-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR), to neurons mimics the effects of resveratrol on both signaling and AMPAR expression. The resveratrol-induced increase in AMPAR expression results from elevated protein synthesis through the AMPK-PI3K pathway activation. These studies describe novel regulatory mechanisms responsible for the control of AMPAR protein amount and subcellular distribution in neurons, providing insights into our understanding of synaptic plasticity, brain function and neurological disorders. / 2017-12-06T00:00:00Z

The Effects of Chromium on Skeletal Muscle Membrane/Cytoskeletal Parameters and Insulin SensitivityHoffman, Nolan John 03 July 2012 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / A recent review of randomized controlled trials found that trivalent chromium (Cr3+) supplementation significantly improved glycemia among patients with diabetes, consistent with a long-standing appreciation that this micronutrient optimizes carbohydrate metabolism. Nevertheless, a clear limitation in the current evidence is a lack of understanding of Cr3+ action. We tested if increased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity, previously observed in Cr3+-treated cells or tissues from Cr3+-supplemented animals, mediates improved glucose transport regulation under insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemic conditions. In L6 myotubes stably expressing the glucose transporter GLUT4 carrying an exofacial myc-epitope tag, acute insulin stimulation increased GLUT4myc translocation by 69% and glucose uptake by 97%. In contrast, the hyperinsulinemic state impaired insulin stimulation of these processes. Consistent with Cr3+’s beneficial effect on glycemic status, chromium picolinate (CrPic) restored insulin’s ability to fully regulate GLUT4myc translocation and glucose transport. Insulin-resistant myotubes did not display impaired insulin signaling, nor did CrPic amplify insulin signaling. However, CrPic normalized elevated membrane cholesterol that impaired cortical filamentous actin (F-actin) structure. Mechanistically, data support that CrPic lowered membrane cholesterol via AMPK. Consistent with this data, siRNA-mediated AMPK silencing blocked CrPic’s beneficial effects on GLUT4 and glucose transport regulation. Furthermore, the AMPK agonist 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-ß-D-ribonucleoside (AICAR) protected against hyperinsulinemia-induced membrane/cytoskeletal defects and GLUT4 dysregulation. To next test Cr3+ action in vivo, we utilized obesity-prone C57Bl/6J mice fed a low fat (LF) or high fat (HF) diet for eight weeks without or with CrPic supplementation administered in the drinking water (8 µg/kg/day). HF feeding increased body weight beginning four weeks after diet intervention regardless of CrPic supplementation and was independent of changes in food consumption. Early CrPic supplementation during a five week acclimation period protected against glucose intolerance induced by the subsequent eight weeks of HF feeding. As observed in other insulin-resistant animal models, skeletal muscle from HF-fed mice displayed membrane cholesterol accrual and loss of F-actin. Skeletal muscle from CrPic-supplemented HF-fed mice showed increased AMPK activity and protection against membrane cholesterol accrual and F-actin loss. Together these data suggest a mechanism by which Cr3+ may positively impact glycemic status, thereby stressing a plausible beneficial action of Cr3+ in glucose homeostasis.
