Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13101803. [PMID: 37238286 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13101803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD1b) is due to a defect in the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT) of the endoplasmic reticulum, which is encoded by the SLC37A4 gene. This transporter allows the glucose-6-phosphate that is made in the cytosol to cross the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and be hydrolyzed by glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PC1), a membrane enzyme whose catalytic site faces the lumen of the ER. Logically, G6PT deficiency causes the same metabolic symptoms (hepatorenal glycogenosis, lactic acidosis, hypoglycemia) as deficiency in G6PC1 (GSD1a). Unlike GSD1a, GSD1b is accompanied by low neutrophil counts and impaired neutrophil function, which is also observed, independently of any metabolic problem, in G6PC3 deficiency. Neutrophil dysfunction is, in both diseases, due to the accumulation of 1,5-anhydroglucitol-6-phosphate (1,5-AG6P), a potent inhibitor of hexokinases, which is slowly formed in the cells from 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG), a glucose analog that is normally present in blood. Healthy neutrophils prevent the accumulation of 1,5-AG6P due to its hydrolysis by G6PC3 following transport into the ER by G6PT. An understanding of this mechanism has led to a treatment aimed at lowering the concentration of 1,5-AG in blood by treating patients with inhibitors of SGLT2, which inhibits renal glucose reabsorption. The enhanced urinary excretion of glucose inhibits the 1,5-AG transporter, SGLT5, causing a substantial decrease in the concentration of this polyol in blood, an increase in neutrophil counts and function and a remarkable improvement in neutropenia-associated clinical signs and symptoms.

Abstract
Although epidemiological studies indicate a strong correlation between high sugar intake and metabolic diseases, the biological mechanisms underlying this link are still controversial. To further examine the modification and crosstalk occurring in enterocyte metabolism during sugar absorption, in this study we evaluate the diffusion and intestinal metabolism of glucose, fructose and sucrose, which were supplemented in equimolar concentration to Caco-2 cells grown on polyester membrane inserts. At different time points after supplementation, changes in metabolite concentration were evaluated in the apical and basolateral chambers by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gas-chromatography (GC). Sucrose was only minimally hydrolyzed by Caco-2 cells. Upon supplementation, we observed a faster uptake of fructose than glucose, the pentose sugar being also faster catabolized. Monosaccharide absorption was concomitant to the synthesis/transport of other metabolites, which occurred differently in glucose and fructose supplemented cells. Our results confirm the prominent role of intestinal cells in fructose metabolism and clearance after absorption, representing a further step forward in the understanding of the role of dietary sugars. Future research, including targeted analysis on specific transporters/enzymes and the use of labeled substrates, will be helpful to confirm the present results and their interpretation.

Abstract
Despite the publication of several of meta-analyses in recent years, the effects of fructose on human health remains a topic of debate. We previously undertook two meta-analyses on post-prandial and chronic responses to isoenergetic replacement of fructose for sucrose or glucose in food or beverages (Evans et al. 2017, AJCN 106:506–518 & 519–529). Here we report on the results of an updated search with a complete re-extraction of previously identified studies and a new and more detailed subgroup-analysis and meta-regression. We identified two studies that were published after our previous analyses, which slightly altered effect sizes and conclusions. Overall, the isoenergetic substitution of fructose for glucose resulted in a statistically significant but clinically irrelevant reduction in fasting blood glucose, insulin, and triglyceride concentrations. A subgroup analysis by diabetes status revealed much larger reductions in fasting blood glucose in people with impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes. However, each of these subgroups contained only a single study. In people with a healthy body mass index, fructose consumption was associated with statistically significant, but clinically irrelevant reductions in fasting blood glucose and fasting blood insulin. Meta-regression of the outcomes by a number of pre-identified and post-hoc covariates revealed some sources of heterogeneity, such as year of publication, age of the participants at baseline, and participants' sex. However, the small number of studies and the large number of potential covariates precluded detailed investigations of effect sizes in different subpopulations. For example, well-controlled, high quality studies in people with impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes are still lacking. Taken together, the available data suggest that chronic consumption of fructose is neither more beneficial, nor more harmful than equivalent doses of sucrose or glucose for glycemic and other metabolic outcomes.

Abstract
High-protein meals and foods are promoted for their beneficial effects on satiety, weight loss and glucose homeostasis. However, the mechanisms involved and the long-term benefits of such diets are still debated. We here review how the characterisation of intestinal gluconeogenesis (IGN) sheds new light on the mechanisms by which protein diets exert their beneficial effects on health. The small intestine is the third organ (in addition to the liver and kidney) contributing to endogenous glucose production via gluconeogenesis. The particularity of glucose produced by the intestine is that it is detected in the portal vein and initiates a nervous signal to the hypothalamic nuclei regulating energy homeostasis. In this context, we demonstrated that protein diets initiate their satiety effects indirectly via IGN and portal glucose sensing. This induction results in the activation of brain areas involved in the regulation of food intake. The μ-opioid-antagonistic properties of protein digests, exerted in the portal vein, are a key link between IGN induction and protein-enriched diet in the control of satiety. From our results, IGN can be proposed as a mandatory link between nutrient sensing and the regulation of whole-body homeostasis. The use of specific mouse models targeting IGN should allow us to identify several metabolic functions that could be controlled by protein diets. This will lead to the characterisation of the mechanisms by which protein diets improve whole-body homeostasis. These data could be the basis of novel nutritional strategies targeting the serious metabolic consequences of both obesity and diabetes.

Abstract
The worldwide epidemics of obesity and diabetes have been linked to increased sugar consumption in humans. Here, we review fructose and glucose metabolism, as well as potential molecular mechanisms by which excessive sugar consumption is associated to metabolic diseases and insulin resistance in humans. To this end, we focus on understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms of fructose and glucose transport and sensing in the intestine, the intracellular signaling effects of dietary sugar metabolism, and its impact on glucose homeostasis in health and disease. Finally, the peripheral and central effects of dietary sugars on the gut–brain axis will be reviewed.

Abstract
Excessive consumption of sweets is a risk factor for metabolic syndrome. A major chemical feature of sweets is fructose. Despite strong ties between fructose and disease, the metabolic fate of fructose in mammals remains incompletely understood. Here we use isotope tracing and mass spectrometry to track the fate of glucose and fructose carbons in vivo, finding that dietary fructose is cleared by the small intestine. Clearance requires the fructose-phosphorylating enzyme ketohexokinase. Low doses of fructose are ∼90% cleared by the intestine, with only trace fructose but extensive fructose-derived glucose, lactate, and glycerate found in the portal blood. High doses of fructose (≥1 g/kg) overwhelm intestinal fructose absorption and clearance, resulting in fructose reaching both the liver and colonic microbiota. Intestinal fructose clearance is augmented both by prior exposure to fructose and by feeding. We propose that the small intestine shields the liver from otherwise toxic fructose exposure.

Abstract
Intestinal gluconeogenesis is a recently identified function influencing energy homeostasis. Intestinal gluconeogenesis induced by specific nutrients releases glucose, which is sensed by the nervous system surrounding the portal vein. This initiates a signal positively influencing parameters involved in glucose control and energy management controlled by the brain. This knowledge has extended our vision of the gut-brain axis, classically ascribed to gastrointestinal hormones. Our work raises several questions relating to the conditions under which intestinal gluconeogenesis proceeds and may provide its metabolic benefits. It also leads to questions on the advantage conferred by its conservation through a process of natural selection.

Abstract
1. Diets containing various sugar mixtures together with polyethylene glycol of high molecular weight as a marker were fed to pigs 1, 2 and 3 weeks old. The piglets were slaughtered 2.5 h later, and the ratio of sugar to marker was determined in the contents of the alimentary tract as far as the caecum.2. The greatest fall was found in the first part of the small intestine.3. Glucose had always disappeared by the third quarter of the small intestine.4. Xylose and fructose disappeared more slowly, especially in the younger pigs, but were usually absent from the contents of the last quarter of the small intestine.5. Sucrose was removed far less completely, and the ratio of sucrose to marker frequently did not decrease along the second half of the small intestine. Sucrose was removed much less efficiently when it formed 15% of the diet than when it formed only 5%, and much less efficiently by the younger than by the older pigs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Glucose-6 phosphatase (Glc6Pase) is the last enzyme of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis, previously assumed to be expressed in the liver and kidney only, conferring on both tissues the capacity to produce endogenous glucose in blood. METHODS Using Northern blotting and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and a highly specific Glc6Pase assay, we studied expression of the Glc6Pase gene in human and in rat tissues (fasted and diabetic). RESULTS The Glc6Pase gene is expressed in the duodenum and jejunum in normal fed rats and in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum in humans. The Glc6Pase messenger RNA (mRNA) abundance was increased eightfold and sixfold in the duodenum and jejunum of streptozotocin diabetic rats. It was normalized in both tissues after 10 hours of insulin treatment. Glc6Pase activity was increased by 300% in the duodenum and jejunum in diabetic rats compared with normal rats. The Glc6Pase mRNA abundances and enzymatic activities were increased in a similar manner in both tissues in 48-hour-fasted rats. Normalization of mRNA abundance was achieved after refeeding for 7 hours. In addition, Glc6Pase mRNA and activity were also expressed in the ileum during fasting in rats. CONCLUSIONS These data show that the small intestine has the ability to release endogenous glucose and strongly suggest that its contribution to systemic glucose production might be increased in situations of insulinopenia (type 1 diabetes) and insulin resistance (type 2 diabetes and others).

Abstract
Gopher et al [Gopher, A., Vaisman, N., Mandel, H. & Lapidot, A. (1990) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 87, 5449-5453] recently reported that about 50% of the glucose formed from [U-13C]fructose infused nasogastrically in children contained 13C3 adjacent to 13C4. Assuming a high isotopic dilution of the triosephosphate pool, the authors concluded that about 50% of the fructose converted to glucose in liver and intestine bypassed the classical aldolase pathway, utilizing a hypothetical direct pathway that would involve the phosphorylation of fructose 1-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The present work was undertaken in order to establish to what extent the conversion of fructose to glucose in the intestine could account for this unexpected isotopic distribution. The technique of everted sleeves was used to define the rate of conversion of [U-14C]glucose and [U-14C]fructose in the small intestine of 24-h-fasted rabbits. It appeared that, at the low concentration of fructose used by Gopher et al., almost as much fructose was converted to glucose as remained unmodified in the tissue. Fructose uptake was not inhibited by glucose, and the presence of all the necessary enzymes in the tissue indicated that the fructose to glucose conversion occurred by the aldolase pathway. Remarkably, this conversion operated with an isotopic dilution not exceeding 25%, due to the low rate of glucose metabolism and the near absence of gluconeogenesis from lactate. It can, therefore, be postulated that, in the presence of pure [U13C]fructose, the triosephosphate pool is highly enriched in 13C with little dilution by 12C, essentially giving rise to [U-13C]glucose, as reported by Gopher et al. There is, therefore, no need to postulate the participation of a direct pathway.

Abstract
Intestinal D-fructose absorption in 31 children was investigated using measurements of breath hydrogen. Twenty five children had no abdominal symptoms and six had functional bowel disorders. After ingestion of fructose (2 g/kg bodyweight), 22 children (71%) showed a breath hydrogen increase of more than 10 ppm over basal values, indicating incomplete absorption: the increase averaged 53 ppm, range 12 to 250 ppm. Four of these children experienced abdominal symptoms. Three of the six children with bowel disorders showed incomplete absorption. Seven children were tested again with an equal amount of glucose, and in three of them also of galactose, added to the fructose. The mean maximum breath hydrogen increases were 5 and 10 ppm, respectively, compared with 103 ppm after fructose alone. In one boy several tests were performed with various sugars; fructose was the only sugar incompletely absorbed, and the effect of glucose on fructose absorption was shown to be dependent on the amount added. It is concluded that children have a limited absorptive capacity for fructose. We speculate that the enhancing effect of glucose and galactose on fructose absorption may be due to activation of the fructose carrier. Apple juice in particular contains fructose in excess of glucose and could lead to abdominal symptoms in susceptible children.

Abstract
The influence of feeding isocaloric diets containing either 65% of fructose (F 65) on 65% of glucose (G 65) were studied on the uptake of both sugars in segments of rat proximal jejunum and distal ileum. The hexose absorption was compared to that obtained in animals receiving isocaloric amounts of a diet containing 30% of glucose (G 30). Feeding fructose (F 65) for 3 days resulted in a 2.5-fold increase of fructose uptake in the jejunum and a 40% increase in the ileum as compared to group G 30. When fructose (F 65) was administered instead of G 65 the uptake of fructose was enhanced by 75% in the jejunum and 35% in the ileum. Stimulation of glucose absorption in segments of the proximal and distal small intestine by diets F 65 and G 65 was nearly identical as compared to the values of group G 30. The stimulation of the uptake of fructose induced by fructose feeding parallels an adaptive increase in the activity of enzymes involved in fructose metabolism in the mucosa of the small intestine.

Abstract
The adaptative response of a diet containing 60% fructose on the activity of those enzymes which are involved in the metabolism of fructose was measured in the liver and in the jejunal mucosa of rats over a period of 12 days. Control animals received isocaloric amounts of glucose or starch. Under fructose feeding there was a marked increase in the activity of fructose-1-phosphate aldolase (3-fold), ketohexokinase (2--3-fold), and triokinase (3-fold) in the jejunal mucosa. In the liver, however, a significant increase in enzyme activity could only be seen for triokinase (2--3-fold), whereas the activity of the other enzymes measured were only slightly or not at all altered. The activity of the three enzymes mentioned above were elevated to a maximum within 3 days after feeding the fructose diet. In the following time of observation no major further changes occurred. The results show that fructose feeding in comparison to a glucose or starch containing diet leads to a marked adaptative increase in the activity of those enzymes, which are involved in the breakdown of fructose, only in the jejunal mucosa.

Abstract
The development of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the ultrastructural localization of glucose-6-phosphatase activity have been studied in the proximal jejunum and distal ileum during the postnatal period. One day after birth, the amount and the repartition of ER in the jejunal enterocytes are similar to that observed in postweaning period. In the following days an extensive proliferation of SER is noted in the supranuclear zone of the absorbing cells. From day 7 till postweaning period a gradual decrease of the amount of SER is observed and after weaning, the ultrastructure of the enterocytes is similar to that in the adult mouse enterocytes. At all time, a positive reaction for G-6-Pase activity is observed in the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum and in the nuclear envelope. In the distal ileum, the SER is poorly developed one day after birth. During the first two weeks, the ER increases but no extensive proliferation of SER can be noted as in the jejunum. The G-6-Pase activity can be visualized in the rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum as well as in the nuclear envelope. It appears that the proliferation of SER could be interpreted as the morphologic expression of an increased G-6-Pase activity.

After 10 hours of fasting, the subjects were given 1.75 g of ethanol per kg body wt during 3 hours under controlled laboratory conditions. Fructose or glucose were adminstered either simultaneously with ethanol or 12 hours later during the hangover period. The intensity of alcohol intoxication and hangover were estimated 10 times during the experimental period of 20 hours using subjective and objective rating scales. Sequential determinations of blood ethanol, acetaldehyde, glucose, lactate, free fatty acids, triglycerides, ketone bodies and capillary blood acid-base balance were also made during the experiment. Under these experimental conditions neither fructose nor glucose had any significant effect on the intensity of alcohol intoxication and hangover. The sugars also had no significant effect on the rate of ethanol elimination or on the blood acetaldehyde concentration during the course of the experiment. Blood glucose concentration was decreased and blood lactate, free fatty acid and ketone body concentrations were increased during the hangover period in the subjects who had been given only ethanol. These subjects also had a marked metabolic acidosis during hangover. Glucose and fructose significantly inhibited the metabolic alterations induced by ethanol. In this respect fructose was more effective than glucose. The results indicate that both fructose and glucose effectively inhibit the metabolic disturbances induced by ethanol but they do not affect the symptoms or signs of alcohol intoxication and hangover. The results support the view that hangover is not directly related to the metabolic effects of ethanol or to its metabolic products.
