摘要
Ablation of glucagon receptor signaling represents a potential treatment option for type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Additionally, activation of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor signaling also holds therapeutic promise for T2DM. Therefore, this study examined both independent and combined metabolic actions of desHis(1)Pro(4)Glu(9)(Lys(12)PAL)-glucagon (glucagon receptor antagonist) and D-Ala(2)GIP (GIP receptor agonist) in diet-induced obese mice. Glucagon receptor binding has been linked to alpha-helical structure and desHis(1)Pro(4)Glu(9)(Lys(12)PAL)-glucagon displayed enhanced alpha-helical content compared with native glucagon. In clonal pancreatic BRIN-BD11 beta-cells, desHis(1)Pro(4)Glu(9)(Lys(12)PAL)-glucagon was devoid of any insulinotropic or cAMP-generating actions, and did not impede D-Ala(2)GIP-mediated (P < 0.01 to P < 0.001) effects on insulin and cAMP production. Twice-daily injection of desHis(1)Pro(4)Glu(9)(Lys(12)PAL)-glucagon or D-Ala(2)GIP alone, and in combination, in high-fat-fed mice failed to affect body weight or energy intake. Circulating blood glucose levels were significantly (P < 0.05 to P < 0.01) decreased by all treatments regimens, with plasma and pancreatic insulin elevated (P < 0.05 to P < 0.001) in all mice receiving D-Ala(2)GIP. Interestingly, plasma glucagon concentrations were decreased (P < 0.05) by sustained glucagon inhibition (day 28), but increased (P < 0.05) by D-Ala(2)GIP therapy, with a combined treatment resulting in glucagon concentration similar to saline controls. All treatments improved (P < 0.01) intraperitoneal and oral glucose tolerance, and peripheral insulin sensitivity. D-Ala(2)GIP-treated mice showed increased glucose-induced insulin secretion in response to intraperitoneal and oral glucose. Metabolic rate and ambulatory locomotor activity were increased (P < 0.05 to P < 0.001) in all desHis(1)Pro(4)Glu(9)(Lys(12)PAL)-glucagon-treated mice. These studies highlight the potential of glucagon receptor inhibition alone, and in combination with GIP receptor activation, for T2DM treatment.
