Li D, Liu B, Wang Z, Li X, Sun S, Ma C, Wang L, Wang S. Sugar accumulation may be regulated by a transcriptional cascade of ABA-VvGRIP55-VvMYB15-VvSWEET15 in grape berries under root restriction. PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2022; 322:111288. [PMID: 35717774 DOI: 10.1016/j.plantsci.2022.111288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 03/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
In the southern of China, precipitation is abundant during the grape growing season, which results in lower sugar content, and finally reduces the quality and yield of grape berries and leads to lower economic benefits. The root restriction cultivation method is an important abiotic stress that limits the disordered growth and development of roots, and it favors the accumulation of sugar and abscisic acid. However, the relationship between ABA and sugar accumulation under root restriction remains unclear. Here, we tested the expression levels of several transcription factors and sugar metabolism-related genes and found that root restriction cultivation could induce higher expression of VvMYB15 and VvSWEET15. The VvMYB15 transcription factor was found to bind to the promoter of VvSWEET15 and activate its expression, furthermore, transient overexpression of VvMYB15 in strawberry fruits and grape berries can promote sugar accumulation and increase the expression level of sugar metabolism-related genes, indicating that VvMYB15 is a positive regulator of sugar accumulation. In addition, the endogenous ABA content and expression level of VvGRIP55, which is highly responsive to ABA, were significantly increased under root restriction, and VvGRIP55 could bind to the promoter of VvMYB15 and activate its expression. Therefore, our results demonstrated that the ABA-responsive factor VvGRIP55 can promote sugar accumulation through VvMYB15 and VvSWEET15, suggesting a mechanism by which ABA regulates sugar accumulation under root restriction.

Abstract
Objective Methods Results Conclusion Intestine-specific OGT depletion results in weight loss and hypoglycaemia. It reduces SGLT1 expression, resulting in glucose absorption from the gut. OGT knockdown may contribute to diminish glucose-induced incretin secretion. OGT may regulate SGLT1 expression via the cAMP/CREB-dependent pathway. O-GlcNAcylation regulates SGLT1 expression in the intestine and the kidney.

Abstract
Absorption of monosaccharides is mainly mediated by Na+-D-glucose cotransporter SGLT1 and the facititative transporters GLUT2 and GLUT5. SGLT1 and GLUT2 are relevant for absorption of D-glucose and D-galactose while GLUT5 is relevant for D-fructose absorption. SGLT1 and GLUT5 are constantly localized in the brush border membrane (BBM) of enterocytes, whereas GLUT2 is localized in the basolateral membrane (BLM) or the BBM plus BLM at low and high luminal D-glucose concentrations, respectively. At high luminal D-glucose, the abundance SGLT1 in the BBM is increased. Hence, D-glucose absorption at low luminal glucose is mediated via SGLT1 in the BBM and GLUT2 in the BLM whereas high-capacity D-glucose absorption at high luminal glucose is mediated by SGLT1 plus GLUT2 in the BBM and GLUT2 in the BLM. The review describes functions and regulations of SGLT1, GLUT2, and GLUT5 in the small intestine including diurnal variations and carbohydrate-dependent regulations. Also, the roles of SGLT1 and GLUT2 for secretion of enterohormones are discussed. Furthermore, diseases are described that are caused by malfunctions of small intestinal monosaccharide transporters, such as glucose-galactose malabsorption, Fanconi syndrome, and fructose intolerance. Moreover, it is reported how diabetes, small intestinal inflammation, parental nutrition, bariatric surgery, and metformin treatment affect expression of monosaccharide transporters in the small intestine. Finally, food components that decrease D-glucose absorption and drugs in development that inhibit or downregulate SGLT1 in the small intestine are compiled. Models for regulations and combined functions of glucose transporters, and for interplay between D-fructose transport and metabolism, are discussed.

Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2019; 226:108607.

Abstract
The circadian clock system drives many physiological processes, including plasma concentration of glucocorticoids and epithelial transport of some ions and nutrients. As glucocorticoids entrain the circadian rhythms in various peripheral organs, we examined whether adrenalectomy affects the expression and circadian rhythmicity of intestinal transporters of the solute carrier (SLC) and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) families, which participate in intestinal barriers for absorption of nutrients, nonnutrients and oral drugs. The rat jejunum showed rhythmic circadian profiles of Sglt1, Pept1, Nhe3, Mdr1 and Mrp2 but not Mct1, Oct1, Octn1, Oatp1, Cnt1 and Bcrp. With the exception of Pept1 and Mct1, adrenalectomy decreased the expression of all rhythmic and arrhythmic transporters including the amplitude of Sglt1 and Nhe3 rhythms but minimally affected the phases of rhythmic transporters except of Nhe3. Similarly, adrenalectomy downregulated the expression of rhythmic (Pparα, Hlf, Pgc1α) and arrhythmic (Hnf1β, Hnf4α) transcription factors, which are known to regulate the expression of transporters. We conclude that endogenous corticosteroids have a profound effect on the expression of intestinal SLC and ABC transporters and their nuclear transcription factors. The circulating corticosteroids are necessary for maintaining upregulated expression of Sglt1, Oct1, Octn1, Oatp1, Cnt1, Nhe3, Mdr1, Bcrp, Mrp2, Pparα, Pgc1α, Hnf1β, Hnf4α and Hlf and for maintaining the high amplitude of Sglt1, Nhe3, Pparα, Pgc1α and Hlf circadian rhythms. The study demonstrates that signals from the adrenal gland are necessary for maintaining the expression of arrhythmic and rhythmic intestinal transporters and that changes in the secretion of corticosteroids associated with stress might reorganize intestinal transport barriers.

Abstract
The dynamic and complex interactions between enteric pathogens and the intestinal epithelium often lead to disturbances in the intestinal barrier, altered fluid, electrolyte, and nutrient transport and can produce an inflammatory response. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a complex polymer forming part of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. On the other hand, squalene is a triterpene present in high levels in the extra-virgin olive oil that has beneficial effects against several diseases and it has also anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this work was to study whether the squalene could eliminate the LPS effect on D-galactose intestinal absorption in rabbits and Caco-2 cells. The results have shown that squalene reduced the effects of LPS on sugar absorption. High LPS doses increased D-galactose uptake through via paracellular but also decreased the active sugar transport because the SGLT1 levels were diminished. However, the endotoxin effect on the paracellular way seemed to be more important than on the transcellular route. At the same time, an increased in RELM-β expression was observed. This event could be related to inflammation and cause a decrease in SGLT1 levels. In addition, MLCK protein is also increased by LPS which could lead to an increase in sugar transport through tight junctions. At low doses, the LPS could inhibit SGLT1 intrinsic activity. Bioinformatic studies by docking confirm the interaction between LPS-squalene as well as occur through MLCK and SGLT-1 proteins.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the association and expression of HNF1A gene as a candidate gene for meat and carcass quality traits in pigs. Statistical analysis revealed that the g.8260 A>G polymorphism significantly associated with pH 24(H), meat percentage and muscle area in the F₂ Duroc × Pietrain (DuPi, n=313) and with pH 24(L), fat area and backfat thickness in the Pietrain (Pi, n=110) population. HNF1A mRNA and protein expressions were higher (p<0.05) in animals with the low post-mortem muscle pH 24(L). The promoter methylation profiling suggested that methylation was not involved on HNF1A expression regulation (p>0.05) in animal with divergent muscle pH. In conclusion, polymorphism in porcine HNF1A gene could be used as a candidate marker to improve the meat and carcass quality traits, with the consideration of breed-specific effect.

Abstract
Two lines of rainbow trout divergently selected for muscle fat content, fat line (F) and lean line (L) were used to investigate the effect of genetic selection on digestion, intestinal nutrient transport and fatty acid bioconversion, in relation to dietary starch intake. This study involved a digestibility trial for 2 weeks using Cr(2)O(3) as inert marker, followed by a feeding trial for 4 weeks. For the entire duration, juvenile trout from the two lines were fed diets with or without gelatinized starch. Blood, pyloric ceca, midgut and hindgut were sampled at 24 h after the last meal. Transcripts of the proteins involved in nutrient transport and fatty acid bioconversion were abundant in the proximal intestine. GLUT2 transcripts were slightly higher in the F line ceca than in the L line. Dietary starch intake did not enhance the transcription of intestinal glucose transporters, SGLT1 and GLUT2; but it was associated with the higher expression of ApoA1 and PepT1 in the midgut. Significantly, the F line exhibited higher intestinal mRNA levels of MTP, ApoA4, Elovl2, Elovl5 and D6D than the L line, linked to chylomicron assembly and fatty acid bioconversion. Apparent digestibility coefficients of protein, lipid and starch were high in both lines, but not significantly different between them. In conclusion, we found a higher potential of chylomicron synthesis and fatty acid bioconversion in the intestine of F line, but no adaptive transcriptional response of glucose transporters to dietary starch and no genotypic differences in nutrient digestibility.

Abstract
We determined in cultured kidney epithelial cells (LLC-PK(1)) the effects of high glucose, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on mRNA and protein expression of the renal glucose transporters SGLT1 and SGLT2. Cultured monolayers were incubated with similar concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α to those produced by LLC-PK(1) in the presence of 20 mM glucose. Confluent monolayers with either 5 (controls, C) or 20 mM glucose (high glucose, HG) were incubated in the presence of 5 mM glucose, 20 mM glucose, 10 pg/ml IL-6, or TNF-α alone or in combination. Separate groups with IL-6 and TNF-α were incubated with antibodies to their respective receptors. HG induced an increased SGLT1 mRNA at 48 h (p<0.05 vs. C) and protein expression in 120 h (p<0.05 vs. C). HG also induced an increased SGLT2 mRNA at 72 and 96 h (P<0.05 vs. C) and SGLT2 protein expression at 120 h (p<0.05 vs. C). In C, 10 pg/ml IL-6 or TNF-α did not modify SGLT1 mRNA (n.s vs. in the absence of cytokines). In contrast, cytokines induced an increased expression of SGLT1 protein at 120 h (p<0.05 vs. in the absence of cytokines), and SGLT2 mRNA and protein were increased at 96 and 120 h, respectively (p<0.05 vs. in absence of cytokines). No changes were observed when cells were incubated with cytokines and HG (n.s vs. C). In conclusion, this study showed that SGLT2 increased in the presence of IL-6 and TNF-α, indicating an autocrine modulation of the expression of this transporter by cytokines.

Abstract
The intestinal expression of genes involved in carbohydrate digestion and absorption, such as sucrase-isomaltase (SI) and sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter (SGLT1), is higher in rodents fed a high-starch/low-fat (HS) diet than in those fed a low-starch/high-fat (LS) diet. In the present study, we investigated whether the HS diet-induced induction of SI and SGLT1 in the rat jejunum is coordinately regulated by nuclear transcription factors, histone acetylation, or histone acetyltransferases. HS diet intake induced jejunal expression of a histone acetyltransferase, general control of amino acid synthesis (GCN5), concurrently with the SI and SGLT1 genes; however, gene expression of nuclear transcription factors such as hepatocyte nuclear factor-1, caudal type homeobox-2, and GATA-binding protein-4 was unaffected by the HS diet. Acetylation of histones H3/H4 and binding of acetyltransferase GCN5 on the promoter/enhancer and transcribed regions of SI and SGLT1 genes were significantly higher in HS diet-fed rats than in LS diet-fed rats, but transcription factor binding was not affected by the HS diet. Our results suggest that the concomitant induction of SI and SGLT1 genes in the jejunum by the HS diet is closely associated with the binding of GCN5 and acetylation of histones H3/H4 on these genes.

Abstract
There are two classes of glucose transporters involved in glucose homeostasis in the body, the facilitated transporters or uniporters (GLUTs) and the active transporters or symporters (SGLTs). The energy for active glucose transport is provided by the sodium gradient across the cell membrane, the Na(+) glucose cotransport hypothesis first proposed in 1960 by Crane. Since the cloning of SGLT1 in 1987, there have been advances in the genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and structure of SGLTs. There are 12 members of the human SGLT (SLC5) gene family, including cotransporters for sugars, anions, vitamins, and short-chain fatty acids. Here we give a personal review of these advances. The SGLTs belong to a structural class of membrane proteins from unrelated gene families of antiporters and Na(+) and H(+) symporters. This class shares a common atomic architecture and a common transport mechanism. SGLTs also function as water and urea channels, glucose sensors, and coupled-water and urea transporters. We also discuss the physiology and pathophysiology of SGLTs, e.g., glucose galactose malabsorption and familial renal glycosuria, and briefly report on targeting of SGLTs for new therapies for diabetes.

Abstract
Human mutations in the gene PRKAG2 encoding the gamma2 subunit of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) cause a glycogen storage cardiomyopathy. Transgenic mice (TG(T400N)) with the human T400N mutation exhibit inappropriate activation of AMPK and consequent glycogen storage in the heart. Although increased glucose uptake and activation of glycogen synthesis have been documented in PRKAG2 cardiomyopathy, the mechanism of increased glucose uptake has been uncertain. Wildtype (WT), TG(T400N), and TG(alpha2DN) (carrying a dominant negative, kinase dead alpha2 catalytic subunit of AMPK) mice were studied at ages 2-8 weeks. Cardiac mRNA expression of sodium-dependent glucose transporter 1 (SGLT1), but not facilitated-diffusion glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) or GLUT4, was increased approximately 5- to 7-fold in TG(T400N) mice relative to WT. SGLT1 protein was similarly increased at the cardiac myocyte sarcolemma in TG(T400N) mice. Phlorizin, a specific SGLT1 inhibitor, attenuated cardiac glucose uptake in TG(T400N) mice by approximately 40%, but not in WT mice. Chronic phlorizin treatment reduced cardiac glycogen content by approximately 25% in TG(T400N) mice. AICAR, an AMPK activator, increased cardiac SGLT1 mRNA expression approximately 3-fold in WT mice. Relative to TG(T400N) mice, double transgenic (TG(T400N)/TG(alpha2DN)) mice had decreased ( approximately 50%) cardiac glucose uptake and decreased (approximately 70%) cardiac SGLT1 expression. TG(T400N) hearts had increased binding activity of the transcription factors HNF-1 and Sp1 to the promoter of the gene encoding SGLT1. Our data suggest that upregulation of cardiac SGLT1 is responsible for increased cardiac glucose uptake in the TG(T400N) mouse. Increased AMPK activity leads to upregulation of SGLT1, which in turn mediates increased cardiac glucose uptake.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) exposure causes glucosuria (glucose in the urine). Previously, it was shown that Cd exposure of primary cultures of mouse kidney cells (PMKC) decreased mRNA levels of the glucose transporters, SGLT1 and SGLT2 and that Sp1 from Cd-exposed cells displayed reduced binding to the GC boxes of the mouse SGLT1 promoter in vitro. Here, we identified a GC box upstream of mouse SGLT2 gene. ChIP assays on PMKC revealed that exposure to 5 microM Cd abolished Sp1 binding to SGLT1 GC box while it decreased Sp1 binding to SGLT2 GC sequence by 30% in vivo. The in vitro DNA binding assay, EMSA, demonstrated that binding of Sp1 from Cd (7.5 microM)-treated PMKC to the SGLT2 GC probe was 86% lower than in untreated cells. Sp1 is a zinc finger protein. Compared to PMKC exposed to 5 microM Cd alone, inclusion of 5 microM Zn restored SGLT1 and 2 mRNA levels by 15% and 30%, respectively. Cd (10 microM) decreased the binding of recombinant Sp1 (rhSp1) to SGLT1 and SGLT2 GC probes to 12% and 8% of untreated controls. Cd exerted no effect on GC-bound rhSp1. Co-treatment with Cd and Zn showed that added Zn significantly restored rhSp1 binding to the SGLT1 and SGLT2. Addition of Zn post Cd treatment was not stimulatory. We conclude that Cd can replace Zn in Sp1 DNA binding domain to reduce its binding to GC sites in mouse SGLT1 and SGLT2 promoters.

Abstract
In a rabbit model of chronic intestinal inflammation, we previously demonstrated that the activity of Na-glucose cotransporter (SGLT1), SLC5A1, is inhibited. This inhibition is secondary to a decrease in the number of cotransporters, indicating that the regulation of SGLT1 during chronic inflammation is at the level of transcription. However, the regulation of SGLT1 expression and the transcription factors involved in the regulation are not yet known. In this report, we describe the cloning and characterization of rabbit SGLT1 promoter and the identification of transcription factors affected in villus cells during chronic intestinal inflammation. The promoter sequence for SGLT1 gene was identified by using the publicly available rabbit genomic sequence. Even though rabbit SGLT1 promoter did not have considerable overall homology with other mammalian SGLT1 promoters, two specificity protein 1 (Sp1) and a hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 (HNF1) binding sites were highly conserved among the species. Rabbit SGLT1 cDNA was encoded by 15 exons. Minimal promoter region determination showed that 196 nucleotides upstream of the transcription start site were sufficient for optimal promoter activity. This region encompassed two transcription factor binding sites, Sp1 and HNF1. For maximal SGLT1 promoter activity, these two transcription factor binding sites were essential, and their effect was synergistic, indicating that two separate regulatory pathways might be involved in their regulation. Using mobility shift assays, we further demonstrated that the binding of both Sp1 and HNF1 transcription factors to SGLT1 promoter regions were affected during chronic intestinal inflammation. Thus this report demonstrates that Sp1 and HNF1 transcription factors act in concert to regulate SGLT1 transcription in the chronically inflamed intestine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) is responsible for all active intestinal glucose uptake. Hepatocyte nuclear factors 1 alpha and beta (HNF 1 alpha and HNF 1 beta) activate the SGLT1 promoter, whereas GATA-binding protein 5 (GATA-5) and caudal-type homeobox protein 2 (CDX2) regulate transcription of other intestinal genes. We investigated SGLT1 regulation by these transcription factors using promoter studies and RNA interference. METHODS Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were transiently cotransfected with an SGLT1-luciferase promoter construct and combinations of expression vectors for HNF 1 alpha, HNF 1 beta, CDX2, and GATA-5. Caco-2 cells were stably transfected with knockdown vectors for either HNF 1 alpha or HNF 1 beta. mRNA levels of HNF 1 alpha, HNF 1 beta, and SGLT1 were determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). RESULTS HNF 1 alpha, GATA-5, and HNF 1 beta significantly activated the SGLT1 promoter (P < .05). Cotransfection of GATA-5 with HNF 1 alpha had an additive effect, whereas HNF 1 beta and CDX2 antagonized HNF 1 alpha and GATA-5. SGLT1 expression was significantly reduced in HNF 1 alpha or HNF 1 beta knockdowns (P < .001). HNF alpha knockdown significantly reduced HNF 1 beta expression and vice versa (P < .005). CONCLUSIONS HNF 1 alpha and HNF 1 beta are important transcription factors for endogenous SGLT1 expression by cultured enterocytes. GATA-5 and CDX2 also regulate SGLT1 promoter activity and show cooperativity with the HNF1s. We, therefore, propose a multifactorial model for SGLT1 regulation, with interactions between HNF1, GATA-5, and CDX2 modulating intestinal glucose absorption.

Abstract
The human gene RSC1A1 codes for a 67-kDa protein named RS1 that mediates transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of Na(+)-D-glucose cotransporter SGLT1. The post-transcriptional regulation occurs at the trans-Golgi network (TGN). We identified two tripeptides in human RS1 (Gln-Cys-Pro (QCP) and Gln-Ser-Pro (QSP)) that induce posttranscriptional down-regulation of SGLT1 at the TGN leading to 40-50% reduction of SGLT1 in plasma membrane. For effective intracellular concentrations IC(50) values of 2.0 nM (QCP) and 0.16 nm (QSP) were estimated. Down-regulation of SGLT1 by tripeptides was attenuated by intracellular monosaccharides including non-metabolized methyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside and 2-deoxyglucose. In small intestine post-transcriptional regulation of SGLT1 may contribute to glucose-dependent regulation of liver metabolism and intestinal mobility. QCP and QSP are transported by the H(+)-peptide cotransporter PepT1 that is colocated with SGLT1 in small intestinal enterocytes. Using coexpression of SGLT1 and PepT1 in Xenopus oocytes or polarized Caco-2 cells that contain both transporters we demonstrated that the tripeptides were effective when applied to the extracellular compartment. After a 1-h perfusion of intact rat small intestine with QSP, glucose absorption was reduced by 30%. The data indicate that orally applied tripeptides can be used to down-regulate small intestinal glucose absorption, e.g. in diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that interleukin 6 (IL-6) acts on the cellular proliferation-activating transduction signals during cellular regeneration. Therefore, this study examined the effect of IL-6 on the activation of Na(+)/glucose cotransporters (SGLTs) and its related signaling pathways in primary cultured renal proximal tubule cells (PTCs). IL-6 increased the level of alpha-methyl-d-[(14)C]glucopyranoside (alpha-MG) uptake in time- and dose-dependent manners. IL-6 also increased SGLT1 plus SGLT2 mRNA and protein expression level. The IL-6 receptors (IL-6Ralpha and gp 130) were expressed in PTCs. In addition, genistein and herbimycin A completely blocked the IL-6-induced increases in alpha-MG uptake and the protein expression level of SGLTs. On the other hand, IL-6 increased the level of 5-(and-6)-chloromethyl-2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate-sensitive cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and IL-6-induced increases in alpha-MG uptake and the protein expression level of SGLTs were blocked by ascorbic acid or taurine (antioxidants). IL-6 also increased the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3), phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt, and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in a time-dependent manner. A pretreatment with STAT3 inhibitor LY 294002, an Akt inhibitor, or MAPK inhibitors significantly blocked the IL-6-induced increase in alpha-MG uptake. In addition, IL-6 increased the level of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) phosphorylation. A pretreatment with SN50 or BAY 11-7082 also blocked the IL-6-induced increase in alpha-MG uptake. In conclusion, IL-6 increases the SGLT activity through ROS, and its action in renal PTCs is associated with the STAT3, PI3K/Akt, MAPKs, and NF-kappaB signaling pathways.

Abstract
The product of gene RSC1A1, named RS1, participates in transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of the sodium-d-glucose cotransporter SGLT1. Using coexpression in oocytes of Xenopus laevis, posttranscriptional inhibition of human SGLT1 (hSGLT1) and some other transporters by human RS1 (hRS1) was demonstrated previously. In the present study, histidine-tagged hRS1 was expressed in oocytes or Sf9 cells and purified using nickel(II)-charged nitrilotriacetic acid-agarose. hRS1 protein was injected into oocytes expressing hSGLT1 or the human organic cation transporter hOCT2, and the effect on hSGLT1-mediated uptake of methyl-α-d-[14C]glucopyranoside ([14C]AMG) or hOCT2-mediated uptake of [14C]tetraethylammonium ([14C]TEA) was measured. Within 30 min after the injection of hRS1 protein, hSGLT1-expressed AMG uptake or hOCT2-expressed TEA uptake was inhibited by ∼50%. Inhibition of AMG uptake was decreased when a dominant negative mutant of dynamin I was coexpressed and increased after stimulation of PKC. Inhibition remained unaltered when endocytosis was inhibited by chlorpromazine, imipramine, or filipin but was prevented when exocytosis was inhibited by botulinum toxin B or when the release of vesicles from the TGN and endosomes was inhibited by brefeldin A. Inhibition of hSGLT1-mediated AMG uptake and hOCT2-mediated TEA uptake by hRS1 protein were decreased at an enhanced intracellular AMG concentration. The data suggest that hRS1 protein exhibits glucose-dependent, short-term inhibition of hSGLT1 and hOCT2 by inhibiting the release of vesicles from the trans-Golgi network.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have documented previously diurnal rhythms in intestinal sugar transporter expression. We set out to identify the role of the vagus nerve in these rhythms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats underwent truncal vagotomy (V; n = 9) and were pair-fed with sham-operated (n = 4) and unoperated rats (n = 6). Rats were killed at ZT3 and ZT9 (ZT: Zeitgeber time with ZT0 set at lights-on), the time interval over which sucrase, SGLT1, GLUT2, and GLUT5 expression exhibit significant anticipatory increases. Jejunal RNA expression for the four genes were assessed by Northern blot analysis. SGLT1 and GLUT2 expression was further studied by Western blot analysis and in situ hybridization. RESULTS Control rats (sham-operated plus unoperated rats) exhibited the expected increase in RNA levels at ZT9 versus ZT3 for SGLT1, GLUT2, GLUT5, and sucrase (P < 0.01 for each). The diurnal rhythm of mRNA levels for GLUT2 and sucrase, but not for SGLT1 or GLUT5, were blunted in V rats. At protein level, SGLT1 was induced 4.3-fold in control rats (P < 0.01) and 3.8-fold in V rats (P < 0.01), whereas GLUT2 was induced 3.3-fold in control rats (P < 0.01) but only 1.4-fold in V rats (N.S.). CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that signaling through the vagus nerve is necessary for the anticipatory induction of GLUT2 and sucrase. Persistence of normal rhythms in both SGLT1 and GLUT5 indicates that diurnal induction of these genes is independent of vagal innervation. Entrainment of anticipatory diurnal gene expression in the intestine occurs via two separate pathways that are differentially dependent on vagal input.

Abstract
The composition of the intestinal luminal content varies considerably with diet. It is important therefore that the intestinal epithelium senses and responds to these significant changes and regulates its functions accordingly. Although it is becoming evident that the gut epithelium senses and responds to luminal nutrients, little is known about the nature of the nutrient sensing molecule and the downstream cellular events. A prototype example is the modulation in the capacity of the gut to absorb monosaccharides via the intestinal luminal membrane Na(+)/glucose cotransporter, SGLT1. The experimental evidence suggests that luminal sugar is sensed by a glucose sensor residing on the luminal membrane of the gut epithelium and linked to a G-protein-coupled receptor, cAMP/PKA (protein kinase A) pathway, resulting ultimately in modulation of intestinal monosaccharide absorption. Here we report the expression, at mRNA and protein levels, of members of the T1R sweet taste receptors, and the alpha-subunit of the G-protein gustducin, in the small intestine and the enteroendocrine cell line, STC-1. In the small intestine, there is a highly coordinated expression of sweet taste receptors and gustducin, a G-protein implicated in intracellular taste signal transduction, throughout the gut. The potential involvement of these receptors in sugar sensing in the intestine will facilitate our understanding of intestinal nutrient sensing, with implications for better nutrition and health maintenance.

Abstract
The product of the intronless single copy gene RSC1A1, named RS1, is an intracellular 617-amino-acid protein that is involved in the regulation of the Na(+)-d-glucose cotransporter SGLT1. We generated and characterized RS1 knockout (RS1(-/-) mice. In the small intestines of RS1(-/-) mice, the SGLT1 protein was up-regulated sevenfold compared to that of wild-type mice but was not changed in the kidneys. The up-regulation of SGLT1 was posttranscriptional. Small intestinal d-glucose uptake measured in jointly perfused small bowel and liver was increased twofold compared to that of the wild-type, with increased peak concentrations of d-glucose in the portal vein. At birth, the weights of RS1(-/-) and wild-type mice were similar. At the age of 3 months, male RS1(-/-) mice had 5% higher weights and 15% higher food intakes, whereas their energy expenditures and serum leptin concentrations were similar to those of wild-type mice. At the age of 5 months, male and female RS1(-/-) mice were obese, with 30% increased body weight, 80% increased total fat, and 30% increased serum cholesterol. At this age, serum leptin was increased, whereas food intake was the same as for wild-type mice. The data suggest that the removal of RS1 leads to leptin-independent up-regulation of food intake, which causes obesity.

Abstract
Dietary sugars regulate expression of the intestinal Na+/glucose cotransporter, SGLT1, in many species. Using sheep intestine as a model, we showed that lumenal monosaccharides, both metabolisable and nonmetabolisable, regulate SGLT1 expression. This regulation occurs not only at the level of transcription, but also at the post-transcriptional level. Introduction of d-glucose and some d-glucose analogues into ruminant sheep intestine resulted in > 50-fold enhancement of SGLT1 expression. We aimed to determine if transport of sugar into the enterocytes is required for SGLT1 induction, and delineate the signal-transduction pathways involved. A membrane impermeable d-glucose analogue, di(glucos-6-yl)poly(ethylene glycol) 600, was synthesized and infused into the intestines of ruminant sheep. SGLT1 expression was determined using transport studies, Northern and Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. An intestinal cell line, STC-1, was used to investigate the signalling pathways. Intestinal infusion with di(glucos-6-yl)poly(ethylene glycol) 600 led to induction of functional SGLT1, but the compound did not inhibit Na+/glucose transport into intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles. Studies using cells showed that increased medium glucose up-regulated SGLT1 abundance and SGLT1 promoter activity, and increased intracellular cAMP levels. Glucose-induced activation of the SGLT1 promoter was mimicked by the protein kinase A (PKA) agonist, 8Br-cAMP, and was inhibited by H-89, a PKA inhibitor. Pertussis toxin, a G-protein (Gi)-specific inhibitor, enhanced SGLT1 protein abundance to levels observed in response to glucose or 8Br-cAMP. We conclude that lumenal glucose is sensed by a glucose sensor, distinct from SGLT1, residing on the external face of the lumenal membrane. The glucose sensor initiates a signalling pathway, involving a G-protein-coupled receptor linked to a cAMP-PKA pathway resulting in enhancement of SGLT1 expression.

Abstract
Many recent publications have looked at the function of the small intestine at the molecular and cellular level. Hundreds of genes are expressed predominantly in the gastrointestinal tract and many are found in only one segment. The developmental interactions between mesenchymal and epithelial cells are now better understood, as are the processes that determine the fate of the products of the stem cell division. The pattern of the principal transcription factors that regulate the expression of genes in the intestine is becoming clearer. The mechanism of action of hormones and growth factors on the intestine is the subject of considerable research, especially concerning the glucagon-like peptides and epidermal growth factor. Genomic factors, which can affect nutritional requirements by altering intestinal function, will be increasingly recognized.
