Insulin resistance in people with obesity and NAFLD is associated with SAAT inflammation and both plasma and SAAT-derived exosomes, which may impact insulin sensitivity in these patients.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Insulin resistance is a key factor in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We evaluated the importance of subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAAT) inflammation and both plasma and SAAT-derived exosomes in regulating insulin sensitivity in people with obesity and NAFLD. METHODS: Adipose tissue inflammation (macrophage and T-cell content and expression of proinflammatory cytokines), liver and whole-body insulin sensitivity (assessed using a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and glucose tracer infusion), and 24-hour serial plasma cytokine concentrations were evaluated in 3 groups stratified by adiposity and intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content: (1) lean with normal IHTG content (LEAN; N = 14); (2) obese with normal IHTG content (OB-NL; N = 28); and (3) obese with NAFLD (OB-NAFLD; N = 28). The effect of plasma and SAAT-derived exosomes on insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation in human skeletal muscle myotubes and mouse primary hepatocytes was assessed in a subset of participants. RESULTS: Proin-flammatory macrophages, proinflammatory CD4 and CD8 T-cell populations, and gene expression of several cytokines in SAAT were greater in the OB-NAFLD than the OB-NL and LEAN groups. However, with the exception of PAI-1, which was greater in the OB-NAFLD than the LEAN and OB-NL groups, 24-hour plasma cytokine concentration areas-underthe-curve were not different between groups. The percentage of proinflammatory macrophages and plasma PAI-1 concentration areas-under-the-curve were inversely correlated with both hepatic and whole-body insulin sensitivity. Compared with exosomes from OB-NL participants, plasma and SAAT-derived exosomes from the OB-NAFLD group decreased insulin signaling in myotubes and hepatocytes. CONCLUSIONS: Systemic insulin resistance in people with obesity and NAFLD is associated with increased plasma PAI-1 concentrations and both plasma and SAAT-derived exosomes.
