RESUMO

This study examined whether the neighborhood built environment moderated gestational weight gain (GWG) in LIFE-Moms clinical trials. Participants were 790 pregnant women (13.9 weeks' gestation) with overweight or obesity randomized within four clinical centers to standard care or lifestyle intervention to reduce GWG. Geographic information system (GIS) was used to map the neighborhood built environment. The intervention relative to standard care significantly reduced GWG (coefficient = 0.05; p = 0.005) and this effect remained significant (p < 0.03) after adjusting for built environment variables. An interaction was observed for presence of fast food restaurants (coefficient = -0.007; p = 0.003). Post hoc tests based on a median split showed that the intervention relative to standard care reduced GWG in participants living in neighborhoods with lower fast food density 0.08 [95% CI, 0.03,0.12] kg/week (p = 0.001) but not in those living in areas with higher fast food density (0.02 [-0.04, 0.08] kg/week; p = 0.55). Interaction effects suggested less intervention efficacy among women living in neighborhoods with more grocery/convenience stores (coefficient = -0.005; p = 0.0001), more walkability (coefficient -0.012; p = 0.007) and less crime (coefficient = 0.001; p = 0.007), but post-hoc tests were not significant. No intervention x environment interaction effects were observed for total number of eating establishments or tree canopy. Lifestyle interventions during pregnancy were effective across diverse physical environments. Living in environments with easy access to fast food restaurants may limit efficacy of prenatal lifestyle interventions, but future research is needed to replicate these findings.

RESUMO

Skeletal muscle insulin resistance manifests shortly after high-fat feeding, yet mechanisms are not known. Here we set out to determine whether excess skeletal muscle membrane cholesterol and cytoskeletal derangement known to compromise glucose transporter (GLUT)4 regulation occurs early after high-fat feeding. We fed 6-wk-old male C57BL/6NJ mice either a low-fat (LF, 10% kcal) or a high-fat (HF, 45% kcal) diet for 1 wk. This HF feeding challenge was associated with an increase, albeit slight, in body mass, glucose intolerance, and hyperinsulinemia. Liver analyses did not reveal signs of hepatic insulin resistance; however, skeletal muscle immunoblots of triad-enriched regions containing transverse tubule membrane showed a marked loss of stimulated GLUT4 recruitment. An increase in cholesterol was also found in these fractions from HF-fed mice. These derangements were associated with a marked loss of cortical filamentous actin (F-actin) that is essential for GLUT4 regulation and known to be compromised by increases in membrane cholesterol. Both the withdrawal of the HF diet and two subcutaneous injections of the cholesterol-lowering agent methyl-ß-cyclodextrin at 3 and 6 days during the 1-wk HF feeding intervention completely mitigated cholesterol accumulation, cortical F-actin loss, and GLUT4 dysregulation. Moreover, these beneficial membrane/cytoskeletal changes occurred concomitant with a full restoration of metabolic responses. These results identify skeletal muscle membrane cholesterol accumulation as an early, reversible, feature of insulin resistance and suggest cortical F-actin loss as an early derangement of skeletal muscle insulin resistance.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Relationships were examined between persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and incident type 2 diabetes, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and mortality. METHODS: In a nested case-control study, 300 persons without diabetes had baseline examinations between 1969 and 1974; 149 developed diabetes (cases) and 151 remained non-diabetic (controls) during 8.0 and 23.1 years of follow-up, respectively. POPs were measured at baseline. ORs for diabetes were computed by logistic regression analysis. The cases were followed from diabetes onset to ESRD, death or 2013. HRs for ESRD and mortality were computed by cause-specific hazard models. Patterns of association were explored using principal components analysis. RESULTS: PCB151 increased the odds for incident diabetes, whereas hexachlorobenzene (HCB) was protective after adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, sample storage characteristics, glucose and lipid levels. Associations between incident diabetes and polychlorinatedbiphenyl (PCB) or persistent pesticide (PST) components were mostly positive but non-significant. Among the cases, 29 developed ESRD and 48 died without ESRD. PCB28, PCB49 and PCB44 increased the risk of ESRD after adjusting for baseline demographic and clinical characteristics. Several PCBs and PSTs increased the risk of death without ESRD. The principal components analysis identified PCBs with low-chlorine load positively associated with ESRD and death without ESRD, and several PSTs associated with death without ESRD. CONCLUSIONS: Most POPs were positively but not significantly associated with incident diabetes. PCB151 was significantly predictive and HCB was significantly protective for diabetes. Among participants with diabetes, low-chlorine PCBs increase the risk of ESRD and death without ESRD, whereas several PSTs predict death without ESRD.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: A buildup of skeletal muscle plasma membrane (PM) cholesterol content in mice occurs within 1 week of a Western-style high-fat diet and causes insulin resistance. The mechanism driving this cholesterol accumulation and insulin resistance is not known. Promising cell data implicate that the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) triggers a cholesterolgenic response via increasing the transcriptional activity of Sp1. In this study we aimed to determine whether increased HBP/Sp1 activity represented a preventable cause of insulin resistance. METHODS: C57BL/6NJ mice were fed either a low-fat (LF, 10% kcal) or high-fat (HF, 45% kcal) diet for 1 week. During this 1-week diet the mice were treated daily with either saline or mithramycin-A (MTM), a specific Sp1/DNA-binding inhibitor. A series of metabolic and tissue analyses were then performed on these mice, as well as on mice with targeted skeletal muscle overexpression of the rate-limiting HBP enzyme glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate-amidotransferase (GFAT) that were maintained on a regular chow diet. RESULTS: Saline-treated mice fed this HF diet for 1 week did not have an increase in adiposity, lean mass, or body mass while displaying early insulin resistance. Consistent with an HBP/Sp1 cholesterolgenic response, Sp1 displayed increased O-GlcNAcylation and binding to the HMGCR promoter that increased HMGCR expression in skeletal muscle from saline-treated HF-fed mice. Skeletal muscle from these saline-treated HF-fed mice also showed a resultant elevation of PM cholesterol with an accompanying loss of cortical filamentous actin (F-actin) that is essential for insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Treating these mice daily with MTM during the 1-week HF diet fully prevented the diet-induced Sp1 cholesterolgenic response, loss of cortical F-actin, and development of insulin resistance. Similarly, increases in HMGCR expression and cholesterol were measured in muscle from GFAT transgenic mice compared to age- and weight-match wildtype littermate control mice. In the GFAT Tg mice we found that these increases were alleviated by MTM. CONCLUSIONS: These data identify increased HBP/Sp1 activity as an early mechanism of diet-induced insulin resistance. Therapies targeting this mechanism may decelerate T2D development.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The use of ratios for analyzing physiologic variables often creates spurious associations. METHODS: Results of a euglycaemic clamp, a graded exercise test to measure maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and underwater weighing in 358 nondiabetic adults (166 women and 192 men) were used to compare the effects of weight standardization by division or by partial Spearman correlations on the association between VO2max and insulin sensitivity. RESULTS: VO2max and insulin sensitivity were negatively correlated when VO2max was divided by weight. When partial Spearman correlations were used to adjust VO2max for body composition, the correlation between VO2max and insulin sensitivity was greatly diminished. CONCLUSIONS: Division of VO2max by weight does not adjust for weight, but it creates spurious associations between VO2max and insulin sensitivity.
