Abstract:
Objective:Based on the degradation of skeletal muscle protein MuRF mediated by pFoxO1 when insulin resistance occurs, this paper explores the content change of skeletal muscle protein and the effect of Jianpi Qinghua formula when insulin resistance occurs.Methods:C57 mice were fed with high-fat food and made as the model of obesity accompanied by insulin resistance. Then they were divided into model group, Jianpi Qinghua formula group and metformin group according to random number table method with 10 mice in each group. Jianpi Qinghua formula group was orally administered with water decoction 20.961 g/kg, and the metformin group was orally administered with metformin suspension 18.498 g/kg, once a day for 12 consecutive weeks. Intraperitoneal Glucose Tolerance Tests (IPGTT) was used after the model was established and intervened respectively. The relative protein content of pFoxO1, FoxO1, MuRF, MyoD and myosin were detected by Western blot method, and the localization of MyoD and myosin was detected by immuno-histochemistry.Results:Compared with the model group, the blood glucose of IPGTT at 0 min, 60 min and 120 min of both Jianpi Qinghua formula group and Metformin group decreased ( P<0.05). Compared with model group, the ratio of pFoxO1/FoxO1 protein expression level (0.27±0.07, 0.24±0.14 vs. 0.05±0.03) of both Jianpi Qinghua formula group and Metformin group increased ( P<0.05), and the relative expression of MuRF protein (1.22±0.42, 1.15±0.32 vs. 3.21±0.35) of both Jianpi Qinghua formula group and Metformin group decreased ( P<0.05). The relative protein expression of MyoD (1.42±0.45 vs. 0.40±0.11) and myosin (0.80±0.11 vs. 0.51±0.08) relative protein expression of Jianpi Qinghua formula group was significantly higher than that of model group ( P<0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that MyoD (5.06±1.72 vs.2.28±0.83) and myosin (60.28±7.47 vs. 39.77±3.34) of Jianpi Qinghua formula group significantly increased compared with model group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Jianpi Qinghua formula could effectively increase the content of skeletal muscle protein, enhancing the phosphorylation of FoxO1 in skeletal muscle and the inhibition of MuRF degradation pathway.
