Exercise plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of chronic liver disease and associated metabolic disorders. A single bout of exercise induces tissue blood flow redistribution, which decreases splanchnic circulation and leads to physiologic hypoxia in the gastrointestinal system and liver. The transcription factor, hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), and its regulator, prolylhydroxylase 2 (PHD2), play pivotal roles in the response to oxygen flux by regulating downstream gene expression levels in the liver. We hypothesized that exercise increases the HIF-1 levels in the liver, and that the hepatic PHD2/HIF-1 axis is involved in postexercise restoration of systemic energy homeostasis. Through constant O-2 consumption, CO2 production, food and water intake, and physical activity detection with metabolic chambers, we observed that one 30-min session of swimming exercise enhances systemic energy metabolism in mice. By using the noninvasive bioluminescence imaging ROSA26 oxygen-dependent domain Luc mouse model, we reveal that exercise increases in vivo HIF levels in the liver. Intraperitoneal injections of the PHD inhibitor, dimethyloxalylglycine, mimicked exercise-induced HIF increase, whereas the HIF-1 inhibitor, PX-478, blocked this effect. We next constructed liver-specific knockout (LKO) mouse models with albumin-Cre-mediated, hepatocyte-specific Hif1a and Phd2 deletion. Compared with their controls, Hif1a-LKO and Phd2-LKO mice exhibited distinct patterns of hepatic metabolism-related gene expression profiles. Moreover, Hif1a-LKO mice failed to restore systemic energy homeostasis after exercise. In conclusion, the current study demonstrates that a single bout of exercise disrupts systemic energy homeostasis, increasing the HIF-1 levels in the liver. These findings also provide evidence that the hepatic PHD2/HIF-1 axis is involved in postexercise systemic metabolic homeostasis.Luo, B., Xiang, D., Wu, D., Liu, C., Fang, Y., Chen, P., Hu, Y.-P.
