ssues to insulin, by way of the production of secretory proteins, termed hepatokines. Here, we demonstrate that selenoprotein P (SeP), a liver-derived secretory protein, causes insulin resistance. Using serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) and DNA chip methods, we found that hepatic SeP mRNA levels correlated with insulin resistance in humans. Administration of purified SeP impaired insulin signaling and dysregulated glucose metabolism in both hepatocytes and myocytes. Conversely, both genetic deletion and RNA interference-mediated knockdown of SeP improved systemic insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance in mice. The metabolic actions of SeP were mediated, at least partly, by inactivation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). In summary, these results demonstrate a role of SeP in the regulation of glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity and suggest that SeP may be a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes. © 2010 Elsevier Inc.

se fatty liver disease and hepatic insulin resistance. However, because animal models of insulin resistance induced by lipid infusion or a high fat diet are complex and may be accompanied by alterations not restricted to the liver, it is difficult to determine the contribution of FFAs to hepatic insulin resistance. Therefore, we treated H4IIEC3 cells, a rat hepatocyte cell line, with a monounsaturated fatty acid (oleate) and a saturated fatty acid (palmitate) to investigate the direct and initial effects of FFAs on hepatocytes. We show that palmitate, but not oleate, inhibited insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 2 and serine phosphorylation of Akt, through c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) activation. Among the well established stimuli for JNK activation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) played a causal role in palmitate-induced JNK activation. In addition, etomoxir, an inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1, which is the rate-limiting enzyme in mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation, as well as inhibitors of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex (thenoyltrifluoroacetone and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) decreased palmitate-induced ROS production. Together, our findings in hepatocytes indicate that palmitate inhibited insulin signal transduction through JNK activation and that accelerated β-oxidation of palmitate caused excess electron flux in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, resulting in increased ROS generation. Thus, mitochondria-derived ROS induced by palmitate may be major contributors to JNK activation and cellular insulin resistance. © 2009 by The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Inc.

is one of the most common liver diseases in the developed world. The histological findings of NASH are characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis. However, an optimal treatment for NASH has not been established. Tranilast, N-(3′,4′-dimedioxycinnamoyl)- anthranilic acid, is an antifibrogenic agent that inhibits the action of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β). This drug is used clinically for fibrogenesis-associated skin disorders including hypertrophic scars and scleroderma. TGF-β plays a central role in the development of hepatic fibrosis, and tranilast may thus ameliorate the pathogenesis of NASH. We investigated the effects of tranilast using an established dietary animal model of NASH, obese diabetic Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats and nondiabetic control Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka (LETO) rats fed a methionine-deficient and choline-deficient diet. Treatment with 2% tranilast (420 mg/kg/day) for 8 weeks prevented the development of hepatic fibrosis and the activation of stellate cells, and down-regulated the expression of genes for TGF-β and TGF-β-target molecules, including α1 procollagen and plasminogen activator-1. In addition, tranilast attenuated hepatic inflammation and Kupffer cell recruitment, and down-regulated the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha. Unexpectedly, tranilast ameliorated hepatic steatosis and up-regulated the expression of genes involved in beta-oxidation, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α and carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase-1. Most of these effects were observed in LETO rats and OLETF rats, which suggest that the action of tranilast is mediated through the insulin resistance-independent pathway. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that targeting TGF-β with tranilast represents a new mode of therapy for NASH. Copyright © 2008 by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases.

ental factors such as infections contribute to the development of Graves' disease. We report here three cases of Graves' disease which presented simultaneously with infectious mononucleosis due to primary EBV infection. Acute EBV infection might play an important role in the onset of Graves' disease. These three women complained of a sore throat or neck pain, resembling subacute thyroiditis. In the case of thyrotoxicosis accompanied by sore throat or neck pain, Graves' disease must be distinguished from subacute thyroiditis. © 2010 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.

y liver disease, with the circadian clock. However, whether such metabolic changes per se affect the circadian clock remains controversial. To address this, we investigated the daily mRNA expression profiles of clock genes in the liver of a dietary mouse model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) using a custom-made, high-precision DNA chip. C57BL/6J mice fed an atherogenic diet for 5 weeks developed hypercholesterolemia, oxidative stress, and NASH. DNA chip analyses revealed that the atherogenic diet had a great influence on the mRNA expression of a wide range of genes linked to mitochondrial energy production, redox regulation, and carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. However, the rhythmic mRNA expression of the clock genes in the liver remained intact. Most of the circadianly expressed genes also showed 24-h rhythmicity. These findings suggest that the biological clock is protected against such a metabolic derangement as NASH. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

s diagnosed with osteoporosis, and started on the selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) raloxifene 60 mg/day orally. She developed marked liver dysfunction. Her body mass index (BNU) was 26.5. Her blood chemistry indicated AST 342 IU/L, ALT 356 IU/L, and hyaluronic acid 255 ng/mL. An oral glucose tolerance test showed impaired glucose tolerance with marked insulin resistance. Histologically, we diagnosed this case as having pre-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). This is the first histologically confirmed case of NASH that was aggravated by raloxifene. © 2007 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.
