Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor δ controls muscle development and oxydative capability

Abstract: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors exerting several functions in development and metabolism. The physiological functions of PPARdelta remain elusive. By using a CRE-Lox recombination approach, we generated an animal model for muscle-specific PPARdelta overexpression to investigate the role of PPARdelta in this tissue. Muscle-specific PPARdelta overexpression results in a profound change in fiber composition due to hyperplasia and/or shift to more oxidative fiber and, as a… Show more

“…In recent years PPARδ has emerged as a key protein in the regulation of energy metabolism by its ability to enhance fatty acid catabolism, energy uncoupling and insulin sensitivity in the liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle [6][7][8][9][10]36].…”

“…PPARδ acts as a regulator of fatty acid β-oxidation in both adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. In skeletal muscle, overexpression of Ppard in mice increases oxidative metabolism, changes muscle fibre type towards oxidative type I fibres and improves physical endurance thereby averting obesity induced by a high-fat diet or genetically [6,7]. Additionally, a recent study of genetically modified mice provides evidence that PPARδ regulates glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in both skeletal muscle and the liver, interestingly indicating a subtle PPARδ-controlled change in substrate utilisation [8].…”

“…As the impairment of glucose utilisation prevails independently of the muscle fibre type examined (i.e. in both red and white muscle), it is unlikely to depend on PPAR-δ-induced fibre type conversion which has been suggested to occur in mice subjected to overexpression of PPAR-δ in skeletal muscle [9,11]. Furthermore, the finding that the PPAR-α agonist WY14643 likewise inhibits glucose utilisation in isolated muscle, but to a quantitatively much smaller extent than GW501516, corroborates previous evidence that these two PPAR subtypes transduce similar effects, but that PPAR-δ is of predominant importance in native skeletal muscle of rodents [5,10].…”

“…The notion that such impairment will derange whole-body glucose homeostasis relates to studies in which increased fatty acid utilisation was triggered by the mass effect of elevated ambient lipid concentrations [20][21][22]. This clearly differs from the fuel switch induced by PPAR-δ, which occurs together with elevated glucose consumption and fatty acid synthesis in the liver [25] as well as with an increased capacity of the mitochondrial apparatus in skeletal muscle, which is therefore capable of oxidising larger amounts of lipid [5,9,11]. It is of note that these changes contrast with the fundamental derangement of insulin-resistant skeletal muscle, which is characterised by a distinctly reduced oxidative capacity and a pronounced preference for glucose over fatty acids as the oxidative substrate [26][27][28].…”
