    Potent Sodium/Glucose Cotransporter SGLT1/2 Dual Inhibition Improves Glycemic Control Without Marked Gastrointestinal Adaptation or Colonic Microbiota Changes in Rodents [Gastrointestinal, Hepatic, Pulmonary, and Renal] (2018)

    Description: The sodium/glucose cotransporters (SGLT1 and SGLT2) transport glucose across the intestinal brush border and kidney tubule. Dual SGLT1/2 inhibition could reduce hyperglycemia more than SGLT2-selective inhibition in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, questions remain about altered gastrointestinal (GI) luminal glucose and tolerability, and this was evaluated in slc5a1 –/– mice or with a potent dual inhibitor (compound 8; SGLT1 K i = 1.5 ± 0.5 nM 100-fold greater potency than phlorizin; SGLT2 K i = 0.4 ± 0.2 nM). 13 C 6 -glucose uptake was quantified in slc5a1 –/– mice and in isolated rat jejunum. Urinary glucose excretion (UGE), blood glucose (Sprague-Dawley rats), glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels (Zucker diabetic fatty rats) were measured. Intestinal adaptation and rRNA gene sequencing was analyzed in C57Bl/6 mice. The blood 13 C 6 -glucose area under the curve (AUC) was reduced in the absence of SGLT1 by 75% (245 ± 6 vs. 64 ± 6 mg/dl⋅h in wild-type vs. slc5a1 –/– mice) and compound 8 inhibited its transport up to 50% in isolated rat jejunum. Compound 8 reduced glucose excursion more than SGLT2-selective inhibition (e.g., AUC = 129 ± 3 vs. 249 ± 5 mg/dl⋅h for 1 mg/kg compound 8 vs. dapagliflozin) with similar UGE but a lower renal glucose excretion threshold. In Zucker diabetic fatty rats, compound 8 decreased HbA1c and increased total GLP-1 without changes in jejunum SGLT1 expression, mucosal weight, or villus length. Overall, compound 8 (1 mg/kg for 6 days) did not increase cecal glucose concentrations or bacterial diversity in C57BL/6 mice. In conclusion, potent dual SGLT1/2 inhibition lowers blood glucose by reducing intestinal glucose absorption and the renal glucose threshold but minimally impacts the intestinal mucosa or luminal microbiota in chow-fed rodents.

    Phenotype of GPR120 KO Mice and Effects of LCFA on Islets [Cell Biology] (2014)
    The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-05-31
    Description: GPR40 (FFAR1) and GPR120 (FFAR4) are G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that are activated by long chain fatty acids (LCFAs). GPR40 is expressed at high levels in islets and mediates the ability of LCFAs to potentiate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). GPR120 is expressed at high levels in colon, adipose, and pituitary, and at more modest levels in pancreatic islets. The role of GPR120 in islets has not been explored extensively. Here, we confirm that saturated (e.g. palmitic acid) and unsaturated (e.g. docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)) LCFAs engage GPR120 and demonstrate that palmitate- and DHA-potentiated glucagon secretion are greatly reduced in isolated GPR120 KO islets. Remarkably, LCFA potentiated glucagon secretion is similarly reduced in GPR40 KO islets. Compensatory changes in mRNA expression of GPR120 in GPR40 KO islets, and vice versa, do not explain that LCFA potentiated glucagon secretion seemingly involves both receptors. LCFA-potentiated GSIS remains intact in GPR120 KO islets. Consistent with previous reports, GPR120 KO mice are hyperglycemic and glucose intolerant; however, our KO mice display evidence of a hyperactive counter-regulatory response rather than insulin resistance during insulin tolerance tests. An arginine stimulation test and a glucagon challenge confirmed both increases in glucagon secretion and liver glucagon sensitivity in GPR120 KO mice relative to WT mice. Our findings demonstrate that GPR120 is a nutrient sensor that is activated endogenously by both saturated and unsaturated long chain fatty acids and that an altered glucagon axis likely contributes to the impaired glucose homeostasis observed in GPR120 KO mice.

    Author Correction: The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data (2021)
    In:  Scientific Data
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-08
    Description: The following authors were omitted from the original version of this Data Descriptor: Markus Reichstein and Nicolas Vuichard. Both contributed to the code development and N. Vuichard contributed to the processing of the ERA-Interim data downscaling. Furthermore, the contribution of the co-author Frank Tiedemann was re-evaluated relative to the colleague Corinna Rebmann, both working at the same sites, and based on this re-evaluation a substitution in the co-author list is implemented (with Rebmann replacing Tiedemann). Finally, two affiliations were listed incorrectly and are corrected here (entries 190 and 193). The author list and affiliations have been amended to address these omissions in both the HTML and PDF versions. © 2021, This is a U.S. government work and not under copyright protection in the U.S.; foreign copyright protection may apply.

    The FLUXNET2015 dataset and the ONEFlux processing pipeline for eddy covariance data (2020)
    In:  Scientific Data
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-12-14
    Description: The FLUXNET2015 dataset provides ecosystem-scale data on CO2, water, and energy exchange between the biosphere and the atmosphere, and other meteorological and biological measurements, from 212 sites around the globe (over 1500 site-years, up to and including year 2014). These sites, independently managed and operated, voluntarily contributed their data to create global datasets. Data were quality controlled and processed using uniform methods, to improve consistency and intercomparability across sites. The dataset is already being used in a number of applications, including ecophysiology studies, remote sensing studies, and development of ecosystem and Earth system models. FLUXNET2015 includes derived-data products, such as gap-filled time series, ecosystem respiration and photosynthetic uptake estimates, estimation of uncertainties, and metadata about the measurements, presented for the first time in this paper. In addition, 206 of these sites are for the first time distributed under a Creative Commons (CC-BY 4.0) license. This paper details this enhanced dataset and the processing methods, now made available as open-source codes, making the dataset more accessible, transparent, and reproducible.
