Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Exercise is one of the most important therapies for diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, T2B. Appropriate exercise decreases blood sugar through activation of AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) in an insulin independent manner. On the other hand, increased protein O-β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) caused by high blood sugar aggravates pathogenesis of T2B. The aim of the study was to gain insight into the role of AMPK/OGT crosstalk in exercise therapy of T2B and find a way to maximize it. Achievements of the research are: 1. Establishment of in vitro assay of membrane translocation of Glut 4 using mouse myoblast cell line, C2C12 cells, by evaluating the effect of exercise with treadmill using mice on AMPK/OGT crosstalk and autophagy, then 2. Identification of autophagy in this system, 3.Induction of autophagy by appropriate exercise with treadmill using mice, which was cancelled with Thiamet G, OGA inhibitor.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
運動療法は、中心的なT2B治療である。今回、細胞の栄養センサーと呼ばれるAMPKと高血糖から引き起こされるタンパク質O-GlcNAc との関連、AMPK/O-GlcNAcクロストークの一端をin vivo運動負荷モデルにおいて観察できたことは、学術的に有意義なことである。さらなる研究が必要ではあるが、AMPK/O-GlcNAcクロストークを人工的に制御することが出来れば、現在、1000万人弱の糖尿病患者(予備群にを含めるとその倍以上いると考えられる)にとって朗報となるのみならず、社会保険的意義も非常に高いと考えられる。
