Methionine restriction improves glucose metabolism by promoting insulin secretion and enhancing glucose uptake and utilization in skeletal muscle. The key regulator H19 plays a crucial role in these processes.
Methionine restriction (MR) improves glucose metabolism. In skeletal muscle, H19 is a key regulator of insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the underlying mechanism of H19 upon MR on glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle. Middle-aged mice were fed MR diet for 25 weeks. Mouse islets ,g cell line ,g-TC6 cells and mouse myoblast cell line C2C12 cells were used to establish the apoptosis or insulin resistance model. Our findings showed that MR increased B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) expression, deceased Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), cleaved cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3) expression in pancreas, and promoted insulin secretion of ,g-TC6 cells. Meanwhile, MR increased H19 expression, insulin Receptor Substrate-1/insulin Receptor Substrate-2 (IRS-1/IRS-2) value, protein Kinase B (Akt) phosphorylation, glycogen synthase kinase-3,g (GSK3,g) phosphorylation, and hexokinase 2 (HK2) expression in gastrocnemius muscle and promoted glucose uptake in C2C12 cells. But these results were reversed after H19 knockdown in C2C12 cells. In conclusion, MR alleviates pancreatic apoptosis and promotes insulin secretion. And MR enhances gastrocnemius muscle insulin-dependent glucose uptake and utilization via the H19/IRS-1/Akt pathway, thereby ameliorating blood glucose disorders and insulin resistance in high-fat-diet (HFD) mice.
