ABSTRACT
Introduction:
In prior reports, Jie-Du-Tong-Luo (JDTL) was reported to help control insulin secretion and blood glucose in patients with diabetes, while also protecting liver and pancreatic islet cells against injury caused by exposure to high glucose (HG) levels. This study was thus developed to assess the effects of JDTL on HG and palmitic acid (PA)-induced muscle injury and to explore the mechanistic basis for these effects.Methods:
A model of muscle injury was established using mouse C2C12 myotubes treated with HG + PA. A proteomics approach was used to assess changes in protein levels following JDTL treatment, after which Western immunoblotting was employed to validate significantly affected pathways.Results:
JDTL was able to protect against HG + PA-induced muscle cell injury in this experimental system, altering lipid metabolism and inflammatory activity in these injured C2C12 myotubes. Western blotting suggested that JDTL is capable of activating PI3K/Akt/PPARγ signaling to control lipid metabolism without any corresponding impact on the inflammatory NF-κB pathway.Conclusions:
These data highlight the ability of JDTL to protect against HG + PA-induced injury to muscle cells, and suggest that the underlying basis for such efficacy is related to the PI3K/Akt/PPARγ pathway-mediated modulation of lipid metabolism.
