项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Ghrelin is a gut-derived acylated peptide hormone that stimulates secretion of growth hormone and ACTH, as well as orexigenesis. Our central thesis is that ghrelin protects mammals against starvation by: increasing appetite and food intake; increasing secretion of GH to protect lean body mass; decreasing locomotor activity to preserve calories; and regulating partitioning, including glucose homeostasis. The overall hypothesis of this application is that (1) cortisol and insulin are the dominant negative regulators of ghrelin release during normal daily patterns of feeding and fasting, and (2) this specific control mechanism is altered by obesity, such that the lack of adequate ghrelin suppression contributes to overeating. Our laboratory has developed sensitive and specific sandwich assays for intact active acyl-ghrelin and des-acyl ghrelin. Using these assays, we will address the following specific aims: 1: Determine the temporal relationships between pulsatile acyl- and des-acyl ghrelin secretion and plasma concentrations of insulin, cortisol and growth hormone in healthy lean and obese adults. This will provide the preliminary data for predicting the outcomes of the direct interventions in Specific Aims 2 and 3. In addition, the data will allow for the direct comparison of the same relationships in lean versus obese. The hypotheses will be tested using a minimal mathematical model of ghrelin release (Specific Aim 4). 2: Determine the effect of cortisol on ghrelin secretion to determine its role in diurnal variation in ghrelin secretion. The results of these experiments will translate the hypothesis of ghrelin regulation by cortisol into a minimal mathematical model. 3: Determine whether insulin inhibits ghrelin secretion and whether glucose-related ghrelin suppression is mediated by insulin. It is proposed that suppression of ghrelin by insulin will depend on insulin sensitivity/resistance in a similar fashion to glucose disposal as measured using a euglycemic insulin clamp. The results of these experiments will assist the translation of the hypothesis of ghrelin regulation by insulin into a minimal mathematical model. 4: Identify differences in ghrelin regulation between lean and obese subjects and determine the mechanism(s) for dysregulation of ghrelin in obesity using a minimal model of ghrelin regulation (MMGR). To unify the relationships between ghrelin, insulin and cortisol from Specific Aims 2 and 3, we will reconstruct the system interactions and verify the consistency of the physiological hypotheses that cortisol and insulin comprise the dominant controls of the secretion of ghrelin and determine the manner in which the ensemble that regulates the secretion of ghrelin is altered in obesity. Our studies are expected to illuminate underlying mechanisms involving ghrelin in the development of obesity; this may lead to new approaches to the treatment for obesity and related conditions, such as diabetes mellitus and Metabolic Syndrome.PROJECT NARRATIVE: Our studies are expected to illuminate underlying mechanisms involving ghrelin in the development of obesity; this may lead to new approaches to the treatment for obesity and related conditions, such as diabetes mellitus and Metabolic Syndrome.
描述(申请人提供):Ghrelin是一种肠道来源的酰化肽激素,可刺激生长激素和促肾上腺皮质激素的分泌以及食欲。我们的中心论点是ghrelin保护哺乳动物免受饥饿:增加食欲和食物摄入;增加GH分泌以保护瘦体重;减少运动活动以保存卡路里;调节分配,包括葡萄糖稳态。本申请的总体假设是(1)皮质醇和胰岛素是正常日常进食和禁食模式期间生长素释放的主要负调节剂,和(2)这种特定的控制机制被肥胖改变,使得缺乏足够的生长素释放抑制导致暴饮暴食。我们的实验室已经开发了灵敏和特异性的夹心检测完整的活性酰基-ghrelin和去酰基ghrelin。使用这些检测,我们将解决以下具体目标:1:确定脉冲式酰基和去酰基生长激素释放肽分泌和胰岛素,皮质醇和生长激素的血浆浓度在健康的瘦和肥胖的成年人之间的时间关系。这将为预测具体目标2和3的直接干预措施的结果提供初步数据。此外,这些数据将允许直接比较瘦与肥胖的相同关系。将使用胃饥饿素释放的最小数学模型(具体目标4)检验假设。2:确定皮质醇对生长激素释放肽分泌的影响,以确定其在生长激素释放肽分泌的昼夜变化中的作用。这些实验的结果将把皮质醇调节ghrelin的假设转化为一个最小的数学模型。3:确定胰岛素是否抑制ghrelin分泌,以及葡萄糖相关的ghrelin抑制是否由胰岛素介导。有人提出,通过胰岛素抑制生长激素释放肽将取决于胰岛素敏感性/抗性,其方式类似于使用正常血糖胰岛素钳夹测量的葡萄糖处置。这些实验的结果将有助于翻译成一个最小的数学模型的假设的饥饿素调节胰岛素。第四章:确定瘦和肥胖受试者之间生长激素释放肽调节的差异,并使用生长激素释放肽调节的最小模型(MMGR)确定肥胖中生长激素释放肽调节异常的机制。为了统一特定目标2和3中生长激素释放肽、胰岛素和皮质醇之间的关系,我们将重建系统相互作用,并验证皮质醇和胰岛素构成生长激素释放肽分泌的主导控制的生理假设的一致性,并确定调节生长激素释放肽分泌的整体在肥胖中改变的方式。我们的研究有望阐明Ghrelin在肥胖症发生发展中的潜在机制,这可能会导致肥胖症和相关疾病(如糖尿病和代谢综合征)治疗的新方法。这可能导致治疗肥胖症和相关疾病如糖尿病和代谢综合征的新方法。
