项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Rho-associated coiled-coil forming kinases (ROCKs) were initially identified as downstream effectors of RhoA, which mediates calcium-insensitive contraction of vascular smooth muscle. Two distinct ROCK isoforms, ROCK1 and ROCK2, have been identified, however, their role in energy metabolism and obesity are not known. In our preliminary studies, we found that despite comparable food intake, mice with hemizygous deletion of ROCK2 (ROCK2) develop insulin resistance, have 25% higher body weight, and 2 times more body fat than wild-type or ROCK1 mice. Furthermore, ROCK2 mice exhibit circadian rhythm disturbances, impaired adaptive thermogenesis, and 43% reduction in whole-body oxygen consumption; features which are similar to mice with homozygous deletion of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor 3 co-activator (PGC)-11. These findings suggest that ROCK2 may be an important regulator of PGC-11 and energy metabolism. The overall goal of this proposal, therefore, is to investigate the role of ROCK2 in energy metabolism and obesity, and to determine the mechanism by which ROCK2 regulates PGC-11 expression and function. Specific aim 1 will test the hypothesis that deletion of ROCK2 leads to altered basal metabolism, impaired energy expenditure, and obesity. Using hemizyous ROCK1 and ROCK2 KO mice that were developed in our laboratory, we will test the hypothesis that deletion of leads to decreased energy metabolism and obesity. The effects of ROCK2 deletion on insulin, glucose, and lipoprotein metabolism will also be investigated. Specific aim 2 will test the hypothesis that PGC-11 mediates the downstream effects of ROCK2 on energy metabolism. We will determine whether conditions, which are mediated by or involve with the upregulation of PGC-11 such as the fasting state, adaptive thermogenesis, and physical endurance are defective in ROCK2 mice. Specific aim 3 will test the hypothesis that ROCK2 increases energy metabolism through induction, phosphorylation, and stabilization of PGC-11. The effects of ROCK2-mediated PGC-11 phosphorylation on mitochondrial biogenesis and energy metabolism in skeletal muscle and adipose tissues will also be investigated.
PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Obesity is a main cause of morbidity and mortality in Western society. The precise mechanism that controls energy metabolism is not known. This research application proposes to investigate the role of an emerging signaling pathway, Rho kinase (ROCK), in fat tissues and skeletal muscle as a potential therapeutic target for preventing and treating diet-induced obesity.
描述(由申请人提供):Rho相关的螺旋卷曲形成的激酶(岩石)最初被鉴定为RhoA的下游效应因子,它介导血管平滑肌对钙不敏感的收缩。两种截然不同的岩石亚型ROCK1和ROCK2已被鉴定,但它们在能量代谢和肥胖中的作用尚不清楚。在我们的初步研究中,我们发现,尽管食物摄入量相同,ROCK2(ROCK2)半合子缺失小鼠出现胰岛素抵抗,体重增加25%,体脂增加2倍于野生型或ROCK1小鼠。此外,ROCK2小鼠表现出昼夜节律紊乱,适应性产热受损,全身耗氧量减少43%;这些特征类似于过氧化体增殖物激活受体3共激活物(PGC)-11纯合缺失的小鼠。这些发现提示ROCK2可能是PGC-11和能量代谢的重要调节因子。因此,这项建议的总体目标是研究ROCK2在能量代谢和肥胖中的作用,并确定ROCK2调节PGC-11表达和功能的机制。具体目标1将检验ROCK2缺失导致基础代谢改变、能量消耗受损和肥胖的假设。利用我们实验室培育的ROCK1和ROCK2KO小鼠,我们将验证缺失会导致能量代谢下降和肥胖的假设。此外,还将研究ROCK2缺失对胰岛素、葡萄糖和脂蛋白代谢的影响。特定目标2将验证PGC-11介导ROCK2对能量代谢的下游影响的假设。我们将确定由PGC-11上调介导的或与PGC-11上调有关的条件,如禁食状态、适应性产热和身体耐力是否在ROCK2小鼠中存在缺陷。具体目标3将验证这样的假设,即ROCK2通过诱导、磷酸化和稳定PGC-11来增加能量代谢。还将研究ROCK2介导的PGC-11磷酸化对骨骼肌和脂肪组织线粒体生物发生和能量代谢的影响。
公共卫生相关性:在西方社会,肥胖是导致疾病和死亡的主要原因。控制能量代谢的确切机制尚不清楚。这项研究的应用建议调查一个新的信号通路,Rho激酶(ROCK),在脂肪组织和骨骼肌中的作用,作为预防和治疗饮食诱导的肥胖的潜在治疗靶点。
