AIM: Defects in hepatic glycogen synthesis contribute to post-prandial hyperglycaemia in type 2 diabetic patients. Chromogranin A (CgA) peptide Catestatin (CST: hCgA352-372 ) improves glucose tolerance in insulin-resistant mice. Here, we seek to determine whether CST induces hepatic glycogen synthesis.
METHODS: We determined liver glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG) and glycogen synthase (GYS2) activities; plasma insulin, glucagon, noradrenaline and adrenaline levels in wild-type (WT) as well as in CST knockout (CST-KO) mice; glycogen synthesis and glycogenolysis in primary hepatocytes. We also analysed phosphorylation signals of insulin receptor (IR), insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), phosphatidylinositol-dependent kinase-1 (PDK-1), GYS2, glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), AKT (a kinase in AKR mouse that produces Thymoma)/PKB (protein kinase B) and mammalian/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) by immunoblotting.
RESULTS: CST stimulated glycogen accumulation in fed and fasted liver and in primary hepatocytes. CST reduced plasma noradrenaline and adrenaline levels. CST also directly stimulated glycogenesis and inhibited noradrenaline and adrenaline-induced glycogenolysis in hepatocytes. In addition, CST elevated the levels of UDPG and increased GYS2 activity. CST-KO mice had decreased liver glycogen that was restored by treatment with CST, reinforcing the crucial role of CST in hepatic glycogenesis. CST improved insulin signals downstream of IR and IRS-1 by enhancing phospho-AKT signals through the stimulation of PDK-1 and mTORC2 (mTOR Complex 2, rapamycin-insensitive complex) activities.
CONCLUSIONS: CST directly promotes the glycogenic pathway by (a) reducing glucose production, (b) increasing glycogen synthesis from UDPG, (c) reducing glycogenolysis and (d) enhancing downstream insulin signalling.
