ABSTRACT
Repeated bouts of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) induce an improvement in metabolism via plasticity of melanocortin circuits and attenuated hypothalamic inflammation. HIF-1α, which plays a vital role in hypothalamus-mediated regulation of peripheral metabolism, is enhanced in the hypothalamus by HIIT. This study aimed to investigate the effects of HIIT on hypothalamic HIF-1α expression and peripheral metabolism in obese mice and the underlying molecular mechanisms. By using a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity mouse model, we determined the effect of HIIT on energy balance and the expression of the hypothalamic appetite-regulating neuropeptides, POMC and NPY. Moreover, hypothalamic HIF-1α signaling and its downstream glycolytic enzymes were explored after HIIT intervention. The state of microglia and microglial NF-κB signaling in the hypothalamus were also examined in vivo. In vitro by using an adenovirus carrying shRNA-HIF1ß, we explored the impact of HIF-1 signaling on glycolysis and NF-κB inflammatory signaling in BV2 cells. Food intake was suppressed and whole-body metabolism was improved in exercised DIO mice, accompanied by changes in the expression of POMC and NPY. Moreover, total and microglial HIF-1α signaling were obviously attenuated in the hypothalamus, consistent with the decreased levels of glycolytic enzymes. Both HFD-induced microglial activation and hypothalamic NF-κB signaling were significantly suppressed following HIIT in vivo. In BV2 cells, after HIF-1 complex knockdown, glycolysis and NF-κB inflammatory signaling were significantly attenuated. The data indicate that HIIT improves peripheral metabolism probably via attenuated HFD-induced microglial activation and microglial NF-κB signaling in the hypothalamus, which could be mediated by suppressed microglial HIF-1α signaling.
