Iron exerts significant influences on glucose metabolism. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying disordered glucose response remains largely unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of dietary iron on hepatic gluconeogenesis in mice and in rat liver-derived cells. High iron models of C57BL/6J mice were fed with 1.25 g Fe/kg diets for 9 weeks, and high-iron BRL-3A cell models were treated with 250 μmol/L FeSO 4 for 12 h and 24 h. Our data showed that higher iron intake resulted in higher hepatic iron without iron toxicity, and reduced body weight gain with no difference of food intakes. High dietary iron significantly increased 61% of hepatic glycogen deposition, but exhibited impairment in glucose responses in mice. Moreover, high dietary iron suppressed hepatic gluconeogenesis by repressing the expression of key gluconeogenic enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and glucose-6-phosphatase. Meanwhile, mice fed with higher iron diets exhibited both decreased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) protein levels. Furthermore, in BRL-3A cells, iron treatment increased cellular glucose uptake, and altered gluconeogenesis rhythmically by regulating the activation of AMPK and expression of PGC-1α successively. This study demonstrated that dietary high iron was able to increase hepatic glycogen deposition by enhancement of glucose uptake, and suppress hepatic gluconeogenesis by regulation of AMPK and PGC-1α.
