Effects of Long-Term Caloric Restriction on Early Steps of the Insulin-Signaling System in Mouse Skeletal Muscle

Abstract: In this study, we analyzed the effects of long-term (14 months) caloric restriction (CR) on the first steps of the insulin signaling system in skeletal muscle of normal mice. CR induced a significant decrease in serum insulin and glucose levels, indicating an enhancement of insulin sensitivity. CR reduced the in vivo insulin-induced phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 by 27%, but this difference was not significant (p =.298). CR reduced insulin receptor (IR) abundance by 34% from the ad l… Show more

“…GLUT4 abundance was not significantly altered in the muscles after prolonged incubation with reduced glucose and insulin. These results are consistent with most earlier research on in vivo CR, which indicates no effect of CR on skeletal muscle GLUT4 total abundance (2,4,12,22,39), although one previous study reported an increase in mouse muscle GLUT4 with CR (3). GLUT1 abundance was unaffected in the present study, consistent with the lack of an effect of in vivo CR on GLUT1 from rat soleus or white gastrocnemius muscles, although a CR-associated increase in GLUT1 was found in a mixed sample of whole gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscles (40).…”

“…Previous research that quantified insulin receptors in skeletal muscle using various methods, including Western blotting (2)(3)(4)42) and insulin receptor binding (7,14), has usually found no effect of CR, consistent with the present results, although Wang et al (39) reported increased insulin receptor binding in rat skeletal muscle after CR. Two studies have indicated that insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation can be increased by CR in muscle (3,18), whereas an equal number of studies have not found this effect of CR (2,4).…”

“…Indeed, studies using the PI3K inhibitor, wortmannin (6), and mice with KO of Akt2 (3), reveal that PI3K and Akt2 are essential for the ability of brief CR to enhance skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity. In contrast, CR does not appear to augment insulin action upstream of PI3K at the level of the IR or Irs1 in response to submaximal insulin (9) but has been shown to enhance IR-Irs1 activation in response to supraphysiological insulin stimulation (8,9,11,23), although this is not a universal finding (24,25). In addition, mice with KO of Irs1 exhibit the expected increase in skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity after CR (26).…”

“…IR function of skeletal muscle after CR has been reported to be unaltered in some (3,4,6,7,15,52), but not all (4,19,48,53), studies. Enhanced insulin-stimulated glucose transport in rat skeletal muscle in response to CR has been found in the absence of significantly elevated IRS1-PI3K activity (17)(18)(19).…”
