The transcription factor carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein (ChREBP) has emerged as a central regulator of lipid synthesis in liver because it is required for glucose-induced expression of the glycolytic enzyme liver-pyruvate kinase (L-PK) and acts in synergy with SREBP to induce lipogenic genes such as acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and fatty acid synthase (FAS).

The CRF group consuming a regular diet exhibited growth retardation; azotemia; proteinuria; glomerulosclerosis; tubulointerstitial injury; heavy lipid accumulation in the remnant kidney; up-regulation of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1), ATP-binding cassette transporter-1 (ABCA1), liver X receptor (LXR) alpha/beta, carbohydrate-responsive element binding protein (ChREBP) and acyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC); and down-regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha), carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT1) and liver-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP).

RESULTS: CRF resulted in hypertension, proteinuria, renal tissue lipid accumulation, up-regulation of scavenger receptor A1 (SR-A1), acyl-CoA cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT1), carbohydrate-responsive element binding protein (ChREBP), fatty acid synthase (FAS), acyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), liver X receptor (LXR), ATP binding cassette (ABC) A-1, ABCG-1, and SR-B1 and down-regulation of sterol responsive element binding protein-1 (SREBP-1), SREBP-2, HMG-CoA reductase, PPAR-alpha, fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP), and CPT1A.

We also examined the roles of the insulin and/or glucose-regulated transcriptional factor (s) such as SREBP1c, LXRalpha/beta, and ChREBP on each promoter of the ACC genes.

Our investigation provided evidence that the development of insulin resistance/diabetic state in P. obesus is accompanied by (i) body weight gain and hyperlipidaemia; (ii) elevations of hepatic ACC-Ser79 phosphorylation and ACC protein levels; (iii) a rise in the gene expression of cytosolic ACC1 concomitant with invariable mitochondrial ACC2; (iv) an increase in hepatic AMPKalpha-Thr172 phosphorylation and protein expression without any modification in the calculated ratio of phospho-AMPKalpha to total AMPKalpha; (v) a stimulation in ACC activity despite increased AMPKalpha phosphorylation and protein expression; and (vi) a trend of increase in mRNA levels of key lipogenic enzymes [SCD-1 (stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1), mGPAT (mitochondrial isoform of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase) and FAS (FA synthase)] and transcription factors [SREBP-1 (sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein-1) and ChREBP (carbohydrate responsive element-binding protein)].

Granulosa and cumulus cells were analyzed for mRNA expression of insulin signaling components (IRS-2 and Glut4), glucose-regulated genes (ChREBP, ACC, and FAS) and insulin-regulated genes (SREBP-1, CD36, and SR-BI) associated with obesity/insulin resistance.

Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2008 Sep;20(9):843-54.


Hepatic expression of sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c, carbohydrate response element-binding protein, liver X receptor-alpha, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and fatty acid synthase (FAS) decreased during fasting in SF and HF mice; however, FAS expression and protein content were higher in the liver of fasted HF mice than of fasted SF mice.
