Central NPFF signalling is critical in the regulation of glucose homeostasis

Molecular metabolism

2022 Jun 09

Zhang, L;Koller, J;Gopalasingam, G;Qi, Y;Herzog, H;
PMID: 35691527 | DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2022.101525

Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) group peptides belong to the evolutionary conserved RF-amide peptide family. While they have been assigned a role as pain modulators, their roles in other aspects of physiology have received much less attention. NPFF peptides and their receptor NPFFR2 have strong and localized expression within the dorsal vagal complex that has emerged as the key centre for regulating glucose homeostasis. Therefore, we investigated the role of the NPFF system in the control of glucose metabolism and the histochemical and molecular identities of NPFF and NPFFR2 neurons.We examined glucose metabolism in Npff-/- and wild type (WT) mice using intraperitoneal (i.p.) glucose tolerance and insulin tolerance tests. Body composition and glucose tolerance was further examined in mice after 1-week and 3-week of high-fat diet (HFD). Using RNAScope double ISH, we investigated the neurochemical identity of NPFF and NPFFR2 neurons in the caudal brainstem, and the expression of receptors for peripheral factors in NPFF neurons.Lack of NPFF signalling in mice leads to improved glucose tolerance without significant impact on insulin excursion after the i.p. glucose challenge. In response to an i.p. bolus of insulin, Npff-/- mice have lower glucose excursions than WT mice, indicating an enhanced insulin action. Moreover, while HFD has rapid and potent detrimental effects on glucose tolerance, this diet-induced glucose intolerance is ameliorated in mice lacking NPFF signalling. This occurs in the absence of any significant impact of NPFF deletion on lean or fat masses, suggesting a direct effect of NPFF signalling on glucose metabolism. We further reveal that NPFF neurons in the subpostrema area (SubP) co-express receptors for peripheral factors involved in glucose homeostasis regulation such as insulin and GLP1. Furthermore, Npffr2 is expressed in the glutamatergic NPFF neurons in the SubP, and in cholinergic neurons of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV), indicating that central NPFF signalling is likely modulating vagal output to innervated peripheral tissues including those important for glucose metabolic control.NPFF signalling plays an important role in the regulation of glucose metabolism. NPFF neurons in the SubP are likely to receive peripheral signals and mediate the control of whole-body glucose homeostasis via centrally vagal pathways. Targeting NPFF and NPFFR2 signalling may provide a new avenue for treating type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Lipid microdomain modification sustains neuronal viability in models of Alzheimer's disease.

Acta Neuropathol Commun.

2016 Sep 17

Herzer S, Meldner S, Rehder K, Gröne HJ, Nordström V.
PMID: 27639375 | DOI: 10.1186/s40478-016-0354-z.

Decreased neuronal insulin receptor (IR) signaling in Alzheimer's disease is suggested to contribute to synaptic loss and neurodegeneration. This work shows that alteration of membrane microdomains increases IR levels and signaling, as well as neuronal viability in AD models in vitro and in vivo. Neuronal membrane microdomains are highly enriched in gangliosides. We found that inhibition of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS), the key enzyme of ganglioside biosynthesis, increases viability of cortical neurons in 5xFAD mice, as well as in cultured neurons exposed to oligomeric amyloid-β-derived diffusible ligands (ADDLs). We furthermore demonstrate a molecular mechanism explaining how gangliosides mediate ADDL-related toxic effects on IR of murine neurons. GCS inhibition increases the levels of functional dendritic IR on the neuronal surface by decreasing caveolin-1-mediated IR internalization. Consequently, IR signaling is increased in neurons exposed to ADDL stress. Thus, we propose that GCS inhibition constitutes a potential target for protecting neurons from ADDL-mediated neurotoxicity and insulin resistance in Alzheimer's disease.

Ganglioside deficiency in hypothalamic POMC neurons promotes body weight gain

Int J Obes (Lond)

2019 Jun 05

Dieterle V, Herzer S, Gröne HJ, Jennemann R, Nordström V.
PMID: 31168055 | DOI: 10.1038/s41366-019-0388-y

BACKGROUND:

Glucosylceramide synthase (GCS; gene: UDP-glucose:ceramide glucosyltransferase (Ugcg))-derived gangliosides comprise a specific class of lipids in the plasma membrane that modulate the activity of transmembrane receptors. GCS deletion in hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (Arc) neurons leads to prominent obesity. However, it has not yet been studied how ganglioside depletion affects individual Arc neuronal subpopulations. The current study investigates the effects of GCS deletion specifically in anorexigenic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons. Additionally, we investigate insulin receptor (IR) signaling and phosphatidylinositol-(3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PIP3) binding to ATP-dependent K+ (KATP) channels of GCS-deficient POMC neurons.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

We generated Ugcgf/f-Pomc-Cre mice with ganglioside deficiency in POMC neurons. Moreover, the CRISPR (clustered regulatory interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 technology was used to inhibit GCS-dependent ganglioside biosynthesis in cultured mouse POMC neurons, yielding UgcgΔ-mHypoA-POMC cells that were used to study mechanistic aspects in further detail. Proximity ligation assays (PLAs) visualized interactions between gangliosides, IR, and KATP channel subunit sulfonylurea receptor-1 (SUR-1), as well as intracellular IR substrate 2 (IRS-2) phosphorylation and PIP3.

RESULTS:

Chow-fed Ugcgf/f-Pomc-Cre mice showed a moderate but significant increase in body weight gain and they failed to display an increase of anorexigenic neuropeptide expression during the fasting-to-re-feeding transition. IR, IRS-2, p85, and overall insulin-evoked IR and IRS-2 phosphorylation were elevated in ganglioside-depleted UgcgΔ-mHypoA-POMC neurons. A PLA demonstrated that more insulin-evoked complex formation occurred between PIP3 and SUR-1 in ganglioside-deficient POMC neurons in vitro and in vivo.

CONCLUSION:

Our work suggests that GCS deletion in POMC neurons promotes body weight gain. Gangliosides are required for an appropriate adaptation of anorexigenic neuropeptide expression in the Arc during the fasting-to-re-feeding transition. Moreover, gangliosides might modulate KATP channel activity by restraining PIP3 binding to the KATP channel subunit SUR-1. Increased PIP3/SUR-1 interactions in ganglioside-deficient neurons could in turn potentially lead to electrical silencing. This work highlights that gangliosides in POMC neurons of the hypothalamic Arc are important regulators of body weight.
