Abstract
Acute heat exposure increases skeletal muscle blood flow in humans. However, the mechanisms mediating this hyperemic response remain unknown. The cyclooxygenase pathway is active in skeletal muscle, is heat sensitive, and contributes to cutaneous thermal hyperemia in young healthy humans. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that cyclooxygenase inhibition would attenuate blood flow in the vastus lateralis muscle during localized heating. Twelve participants (6 women) were studied on two separate occasions: 1) time control (i.e., no ibuprofen); and 2) ingestion of 800 mg ibuprofen, a nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor. Experiments were randomized, counter-balanced, and separated by at least 10 days. Pulsed short-wave diathermy was used to induce unilateral deep heating of the vastus lateralis for 90 min, whereas the contralateral leg served as a thermoneutral control. Microdialysis was utilized to bypass the cutaneous circulation and directly measure local blood flow in the vastus lateralis muscle of each leg via the ethanol washout technique. Heat exposure increased muscle temperature and local blood flow (both P < 0.01 vs. baseline). However, the thermal hyperemic response did not differ between control and ibuprofen conditions (P ≥ 0.2). Muscle temperature slightly decreased for the thermoneutral leg (P < 0.01 vs. baseline), yet local blood flow remained relatively unchanged across time for control and ibuprofen conditions (both P ≥ 0.7). Taken together, our data suggest that inhibition of cyclooxygenase-derived vasodilator prostanoids does not blunt thermal hyperemia in skeletal muscle of young healthy humans.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Acute heat exposure increases skeletal muscle blood flow in humans. However, the mechanisms mediating this hyperemic response remain unknown. Using a pharmacological approach combined with microdialysis, we found that thermal hyperemia in the vastus lateralis muscle was well maintained despite the successful inhibition of cyclooxygenase. Our results suggest that cyclooxygenase-derived vasodilator prostanoids do not contribute to thermal hyperemia in skeletal muscle of young healthy humans.

The effect of repeated hot water immersion on insulin sensitivity, heat shock protein 70, and inflammation in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab 2023; 325:E755-E763. [PMID: 37938179 DOI: 10.1152/ajpendo.00222.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
Repeated hot water immersion (HWI) can improve glycemic control in healthy individuals but data are limited for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present study investigated whether repeated HWI improves insulin sensitivity and inflammatory status and reduces plasma ([extracellular heat shock protein 70]) [eHSP70] and resting metabolic rate (RMR). Fourteen individuals with T2DM participated in this pre- versus postintervention study, with outcome measures assessed in fasted (≥12 h) and postprandial (2-h post-75 g glucose ingestion) states. HWI consisted of 1 h in 40°C water (target rectal temperature 38.5°C-39°C) repeated 8-10 times within a 14-day period. Outcome measures included insulin sensitivity, plasma [glucose], [insulin], [eHSP70], inflammatory markers, RMR, and substrate utilization. The HWI intervention increased fasted insulin sensitivity (QUICKI; P = 0.03) and lowered fasted plasma [insulin] (P = 0.04), but fasting plasma [glucose] (P = 0.83), [eHSP70] (P = 0.08), [IL-6] (P = 0.55), [IL-10] (P = 0.59), postprandial insulin sensitivity (P = 0.19), plasma [glucose] (P = 0.40), and [insulin] (P = 0.47) were not different. RMR was reduced by 6.63% (P < 0.05), although carbohydrate (P = 0.43) and fat oxidation (P = 0.99) rates were unchanged. This study shows that 8-10 HWIs within a 14-day period improved fasting insulin sensitivity and plasma [insulin] in individuals with T2DM, but not when glucose tolerance is challenged. HWI also improves metabolic efficiency (i.e., reduced RMR). Together these results could be clinically important and have implications for metabolic health outcomes and well-being in individuals with T2DM.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This is the first study to investigate repeated HWI to raise deep body temperature on insulin sensitivity, inflammation, eHSP70, and substrate utilization in individuals with T2DM. The principal novel findings were improvements in fasting insulin sensitivity and fasting plasma [insulin] but no change in fasting plasma [glucose], postprandial insulin sensitivity, plasma [insulin], or [glucose]. There was also no change in eHSP70, inflammatory status, or substrate utilization but there were reductions in RMR and oxygen consumption.

Alternating current electromagnetic field exposure lessens intramyocellular lipid accumulation due to high-fat feeding via enhanced lipid metabolism in mice. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0289086.

Abstract
Long-term high-fat feeding results in intramyocellular lipid accumulation, leading to insulin resistance. Intramyocellular lipid accumulation is related to an energy imbalance between excess fat intake and fatty acid consumption. Alternating current electromagnetic field exposure has been shown to enhance mitochondrial metabolism in the liver and sperm. Therefore, we hypothesized that alternating current electromagnetic field exposure would ameliorate high-fat diet-induced intramyocellular lipid accumulation via activation of fatty acid consumption. C57BL/6J mice were either fed a normal diet (ND), a normal diet and exposed to an alternating current electromagnetic field (ND+EMF), a high-fat diet (HFD), or a high-fat diet and exposed to an alternating current electromagnetic field (HFD+EMF). Electromagnetic field exposure was administered 8 hrs/day for 16 weeks using an alternating current electromagnetic field device (max.180 mT, Hokoen, Utatsu, Japan). Tibialis anterior muscles were collected for measurement of intramyocellular lipids, AMPK phosphorylation, FAT/CD-36, and carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT)-1b protein expression levels. Intramyocellular lipid levels were lower in the HFD + EMF than in the HFD group. The levels of AMPK phosphorylation, FAT/CD-36, and CPT-1b protein levels were higher in the HFD + EMF than in the HFD group. These results indicate that alternating current electromagnetic field exposure decreases intramyocellular lipid accumulation via increased fat consumption.

Abstract
The impact of autoclaving or autoclave-debranching treatments on the multi-scale structure of resistant starch (RS) and the relationship with starch digestion remains unclear, despite their widespread use in its preparation. This work investigated the relationship between RS structure in black Tartary buckwheat and its digestibility by analyzing the effects of autoclaving and autoclave-debranching combined treatments on the multi-scale structure of RS. The results showed that black Tartary buckwheat RS exhibited a more extensive honeycomb-like network structure and enhanced thermal stability than either black Tartary buckwheat native starch (BTBNS) or common buckwheat native starch (CBNS). Autoclaving and autoclaving-debranching converted A-type native starch to V-type and possibly the formation of flavonoid-starch complexes. Autoclaving treatment significantly increased the proportion of short A chain (DP 6-12) and the amylose (AM) content, reduced the viscosity and the total crystallinity. Notably, the autoclave-debranching co-treatment significantly enhanced the resistance of starch to digestion, promoted the formation of perfect microcrystallines, and increased the AM content, short-range ordered degree, and the proportion of long B2 chain (DP 25-36). This study reveals the relationship between the multi-scale structure and digestibility of black Tartary buckwheat RS by autoclaving combined with debranching modification.

Abstract
Metabolic stress involved in several dysregulation disorders such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) results in down regulation of several heat shock proteins (HSPs) including DNAJB3. This down regulation of HSPs is associated with insulin resistance (IR) and interventions which induce the heat shock response (HSR) help to increase the insulin sensitivity. Metabolic stress leads to changes in signaling pathways through increased activation of both c-jun N-terminal kinase-1 (JNK1) and the inhibitor of κB inflammatory kinase (IKKβ) which in turn leads to inactivation of insulin receptor substrates 1 and 2 (IRS-1 and IRS-2). DNAJB3 interacts with both JNK1 and IKKβ kinases to mitigate metabolic stress. In addition DNAJB3 also activates the PI3K-PKB/AKT pathway through increased phosphorylation of AKT1 and its substrate AS160, a Rab GTPase-activating protein, which results in mobilization of GLUT4 transporter protein and improved glucose uptake. We show through pull down that AK T1 is an interacting partner of DNAJB3, further confirmed by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) which quantified the avidity of AKT1 for DNAJB3. The binding interface was identified by combining protein modelling with docking of the AKT1-DNAJB3 complex. DNAJB3 is localized in the cytoplasm and ER, where it interacts directly with AKT1 and mobilizes AS160 for glucose transport. Inhibition of AKT1 resulted in loss of GLUT4 translocation activity mediated by DNAJB3 and also abolished the protective effect of DNAJB3 on tunicamycin-induced ER stress. Taken together, our findings provide evidence for a direct protein-protein interaction between DNAJB3 and AKT1 upon which DNAJB3 alleviates ER stress and promotes GLUT4 translocation.

Abstract
Environmental factors, such as sleep restriction, contribute to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) by causing hyperinsulinemia, hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and oligo- or anovulation. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of circadian rhythm disruption on reproductive and metabolic functions and investigate the potential therapeutic benefits of MitoQ10 and hot tub therapy (HTT). Sixty female rats were divided into six groups: control, MitoQ10, HTT, and three groups with PCOS induced by continuous light exposure(L/L). The reproductive, endocrine, and structural manifestations ofL/L-induced PCOS were confirmed by serum biochemical measurements, ultrasound evaluation of ovarian size, and vaginal smear examination at week 14. Subsequently, the rats were divided into the L/L (untreated), L/L+MitoQ10-treated, andL/L+HTT-treated groups. At the end of week 22, all rats were sacrificed. Treatmentwith MitoQ10 or HTT partially reversed the reproductive, endocrine, and structural features of PCOS, leading to a decreased amplitude of isolated uterine contractions, ovarian cystic changes and size, and endometrial thickness. Furthermore, both interventions improved the elevated serum levels of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), kisspeptin, Fibulin-1, A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 19 (ADAMTS-19), lipid profile, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), oxidative stress markers, androgen receptors (AR) and their transcription target genes, FKBP52 immunostaining in ovarian tissues, and uterine estrogen receptor alpha (ER-α) and PRimmunostaining. In conclusion, MitoQ10 supplementation and HTT demonstrated the potential for ameliorating metabolic, reproductive, and structural perturbations associated with PCOS induced by circadian rhythm disruption. These findings suggest a potential therapeutic role for these interventions in managing PCOS in women.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a risk factor for various cardiovascular diseases, which seriously threaten human health. Thus, finding a safe, effective and economical strategy to treat insulin resistance is urgently needed. This study aimed to investigate the effects of exercise combined with heat treatment on the insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle of diet-induced obese (DIO) rats. Obese rats were induced by a 10-week high-fat diet and were randomly divided into normal temperature + control (NC), normal temperature + exercise (NE), heat treatment + control (HC) and heat treatment + exercise (HE) groups for 7 weeks of incremental load endurance exercise and heat treatment (exposure to a high-temperature environment room). At the end of the 7-week intervention, we measured fasting blood glucose, serum fasting insulin, serum leptin, serum adiponectin, protein expression of HSF1/HSP27 and JAK2/STAT3 pathway in soleus (primarily composed of slow-twitch fibres) and extensor digitorum longus (primarily composed of fast-twitch fibres) muscles. The results showed that exercise combined with heat treatment can effectively improve insulin resistance by regulating HSF1/HSP27 and JAK2/STAT3 pathways in the slow-twitch muscle of DIO rats. Importantly, exercise combined with heat treatment is more effective in improving insulin resistance in DIO rats than exercise or heat treatment alone. Low-moderate intensity exercise that stimulates slow-twitch muscle, combined with heat treatment is an effective strategy to treat insulin resistance.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a chaperone protein induced by various stresses on cells and is involved in various disease mechanisms. In recent years, the expression of HSP70 in skeletal muscle has attracted attention for its use as a prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and as a disease marker. We have previously reported the effect of thermal stimulation targeted to skeletal muscles and skeletal muscle-derived cells. In this article, we reported review articles including our research results. HSP70 contributes to the improvement of insulin resistance as well as chronic inflammation which are underlying pathologies of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and atherosclerosis. Thus, induction of HSP70 expression by external stimulation such as heat and exercise may be useful for ASCVD prevention. It may be possible to induce HSP70 by thermal stimulus in those who have difficulty in exercise because of obesity or locomotive syndrome. It requires further investigation to determine whether monitoring serum HSP70 concentration is useful for ASCVD prevention.

Abstract
Oxidants are generated by all cells during normal oxidative respiration, and as long as they are under the control of appropriate mechanisms, they act as intracellular signaling molecules participating in complex functions. Oxidative stress can also affect insulin levels in the body. The production of reactive oxygen species by-products can lead to insulin resistance. Heat shock proteins (70 kDa) protect cells from the damaging effects of heat shock but also oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the serum concentration of HSP70 in young, non-obese but overweight men (BMI ≤ 30 kg/m2) and to assess its association with the insulin resistance, lipid profile and antioxidant system of red blood cells. Fifty-seven young men were examined and divided into two groups: lean men (n = 30) and men overweight (n = 27). A statistically significant difference was observed in the BMI (p < 0.007), HSP70 concentration (p < 0.000), serum insulin concentration (p < 0.000), HOMA-IR (p < 0.0001), superoxide dismutase (p < 0.02) and glutathione peroxidase (p < 0.05) between the studied groups. There was a negative correlation between the concentration of HSP70 with the insulin level (r = −0.50; p < 0.0004) and with the HOMA-IR (r = −0.50; p < 0.0004). These changes were associated with an increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Our findings suggest that measuring the extracellular concentration of HSP70 can be an important indicator in disorders of glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
Whether glucose concentration increases during heat exposure because of reduced peripheral tissue uptake or enhanced appearance is currently unknown. This study aimed to report glucose concentrations in both capillary and venous blood in response to a glucose challenge during passive heating (PH) to assess whether heat exposure affects glucose uptake in healthy males. Twelve healthy male participants completed two experimental sessions, where they were asked to undertake an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) whilst immersed in thermoneutral (CON, 35.9 (0.6) °C) and hot water (HWI, 40.3 (0.5) °C) for 120 min. Venous and capillary blood [glucose], rectal temperature, and heart rate were recorded. [Glucose] area under the curve for HWI venous (907 (104) AU) differed from CON venous (719 (88) AU, all P < 0.001). No other differences were noted (P > 0.05). Compared with CON, HWI resulted in greater rectal temperature (37.1 (0.3) °C versus 38.6 (0.4) °C, respectively) and heart rate (69 (12) bpm versus 108 (11) bpm, respectively) on cessation (P < 0.001). An OGTT results in similar capillary [glucose] during hot and thermoneutral water immersion, whereas venous [glucose] was greater during HWI when compared with CON. This indicates that peripheral tissue glucose uptake is acutely reduced in response to HWI. Abbreviations: AUC: Area under the curve; CON: Thermoneutral immersion trial; HWI: Hot water immersion trial; OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test; PH: Passive heating; T - m s k : Mean skin temperature; Trec: Rectal temperature.

Abstract
Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the most common metabolic disease worldwide and is associated with many systemic complications. Muscle atrophy is one of the significant complications in DM patients, making routine tasks laborious as atrophy continues. It is known that heat stress stimulates heat shock proteins and other proteins that maintain muscle mass; however, it is not thoroughly studied in diabetic conditions. This study addressed whether heat therapy can attenuate muscle atrophy in STZ-induced diabetic rats and explored its mechanism of action on specific muscle proteins. Methods: Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into short-term (3 weeks) and long-term (6 weeks) experiments. In each experiment rats were divided into control, heat therapy, diabetic and diabetic + heat therapy groups. Rats in heat therapy groups were exposed to heat therapy for 30 min daily for three or six weeks in a temperature-controlled (42°C) chamber. Results: The attenuation of neuromuscular functions assessed by Rotarod, Kondziella's inverted screen, and extensor postural thrust tests showed that diabetic rats exposed to heat therapy performed significantly better than diabetic controls. Muscle cross sectional area data established that heat therapy reduced muscle atrophy by 34.3% within 3 weeks and 44.1% within 6 weeks in the diabetic groups. Further, heat therapy significantly decreased muscle atrophy markers (CD68, KLF, and MAFbx) and significantly elevated muscle hypertrophy markers (AKT, mTOR, and HSP70). Conclusions: This study shows the relevance and clinical significance of utilizing heat therapy as a viable treatment to attenuate muscle atrophy in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Global climate warming has drawn worldwide attention. However, the health impact of heat exposure is still controversial. This study aimed to explore the exact effects and sex differential vulnerability under intermittent heat exposure (IHE) patterns and tried to elucidate the potential mechanisms by which IHE modulated hepatic lipid and glucose homeostasis. Both female and male C57BL/6 N mice were randomly allocated to control group (22 ± 1 °C) or intermittent heat group (37 ± 1 °C for 6 h) for 9 consecutive days followed by 4-day recovery at 22 ± 1 °C in a whole-body exposure chamber. Male mice, but not female, being influenced by IHE with decreased body weight, improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance. Next, the levels of hepatic triglyceride (TG) were decreased and free fatty acid (FFA) increased in male mice exposed to intermittent heat, accompanied with upregulated expression of anti-oxidative enzymes in the liver. In addition, IHE led to enhanced lipid catabolism in male mice by inducing fatty acid uptake, lipid lipolysis, mitochondrial/peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation and lipid export. And glycolysis and glucose utilization were induced by IHE in male mice as well. Mechanically, heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)/insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1)/AMPKα pathways were activated in response to IHE. These findings provide new evidence that IHE sex-dependently enhanced the metabolism of lipid and glucose in male mice through HSP70/IRS1/AMPKα signaling.

Potential Therapeutic Strategies for Skeletal Muscle Atrophy. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 12:antiox12010044. [PMID: 36670909 PMCID: PMC9854691 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12010044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
The maintenance of muscle homeostasis is vital for life and health. Skeletal muscle atrophy not only seriously reduces people's quality of life and increases morbidity and mortality, but also causes a huge socioeconomic burden. To date, no effective treatment has been developed for skeletal muscle atrophy owing to an incomplete understanding of its molecular mechanisms. Exercise therapy is the most effective treatment for skeletal muscle atrophy. Unfortunately, it is not suitable for all patients, such as fractured patients and bedridden patients with nerve damage. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism of skeletal muscle atrophy is crucial for developing new therapies for skeletal muscle atrophy. In this review, PubMed was systematically screened for articles that appeared in the past 5 years about potential therapeutic strategies for skeletal muscle atrophy. Herein, we summarize the roles of inflammation, oxidative stress, ubiquitin-proteasome system, autophagic-lysosomal pathway, caspases, and calpains in skeletal muscle atrophy and systematically expound the potential drug targets and therapeutic progress against skeletal muscle atrophy. This review focuses on current treatments and strategies for skeletal muscle atrophy, including drug treatment (active substances of traditional Chinese medicine, chemical drugs, antioxidants, enzyme and enzyme inhibitors, hormone drugs, etc.), gene therapy, stem cell and exosome therapy (muscle-derived stem cells, non-myogenic stem cells, and exosomes), cytokine therapy, physical therapy (electroacupuncture, electrical stimulation, optogenetic technology, heat therapy, and low-level laser therapy), nutrition support (protein, essential amino acids, creatine, β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate, and vitamin D), and other therapies (biomaterial adjuvant therapy, intestinal microbial regulation, and oxygen supplementation). Considering many treatments have been developed for skeletal muscle atrophy, we propose a combination of proper treatments for individual needs, which may yield better treatment outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing worldwide. Heat therapy has been found effective in improving glycaemic control. However, to date, there is a lack of randomised controlled studies investigating the efficacy of heat therapy in T2DM. Therefore, we aim to investigate whether heat therapy with natural thermal mineral water can improve glycaemic control in patients with T2DM. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The HEAT therapy in patiEnts with type 2 Diabetes mellitus (HEATED) Study is a single-centre, two-arm randomised controlled trial being conducted at Harkány Thermal Rehabilitation Centre in Hungary. Patients with T2DM will be randomly assigned to group A (bath sessions in 38°C natural thermal mineral water) and group B (baths in thermoneutral water (30°C-32°C)). Both groups will complete a maximum of 5 weekly visits, averaging 50-60 visits over the 12-week study. Each session will last 30 min, with a physical check-up before the bath. At baseline, patients' T2DM status will be investigated thoroughly. Possible microvascular and macrovascular complications of T2DM will be assessed with physical and laboratory examinations. The short form-36 questionnaire will assess the quality of life. Patients will also be evaluated at weeks 4, 8 and 12. The primary endpoint will be the change of glycated haemoglobin from baseline to week 12. An estimated 65 patients will be enrolled per group, with a sample size re-estimation at the enrolment of 50% of the calculated sample size. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been approved by the Scientific and Research Ethics Committee of the Hungarian Medical Research Council (818-2/2022/EÜIG). Written informed consent is required from all participants. We will disseminate our results to the medical community and will publish our results in peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05237219.

Abstract
This review proposes the novel hypothesis that heat can be used as an alternative therapy to exercise to improve hepatic mitochondrial function and glucose regulation in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Although exercise has proven benefits in treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, barriers to exercise in the majority of patients necessitate an alternative method of treatment.

The expression of HSP70 in skeletal muscle is not associated with glycogen availability during recovery following prolonged exercise in elite endurance athletes. Eur J Appl Physiol 2022; 122:1831-1842.

Abstract
The 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) is a ubiquitous molecular chaperone which is highly inducible by cellular stress such as exercise. To investigate the role of muscle glycogen content on the HSP70 expression, muscle glycogen was manipulated by consumption of either water (H2O) or a carbohydrate-enriched diet (CHO) during recovery from 4 h of glycogen-depleting cycling exercise in fourteen elite endurance athletes. Muscle biopsies were obtained pre- and post-exercise, and after 4 and 24 h of recovery, and analyzed for HSP70 mRNA expression, as well as HSP70 protein expression and muscle glycogen within the same skeletal muscle fibers using immunohistochemistry. Exercise reduced glycogen by 59 ± 10% (P < 0.0001). After 4 h of recovery, glycogen approached resting levels in the CHO group (86% of pre, P = 0.28) but remained suppressed in the H2O group (41% of pre, P < 0.001) (group × time interaction: P = 0.002). Importantly, both the HSP70 mRNA (+ 1.6-fold (+ 0.28/- 0.24), P = 0.02) and protein expression (+ 147 ± 99%, P < 0.0001) was substantially increased after exercise and remained elevated in both groups after 4 h of recovery, despite clear differences in muscle glycogen content. Thus, muscle glycogen content was not related to the variation in single fiber HSP70 expression at the 4-h time-point (r2 = 0.004). In conclusion, muscle HSP70 expression remained elevated during recovery from prolonged exercise in highly trained skeletal muscle, irrespective of muscle glycogen availability.

Abstract
Impaired endothelial insulin signaling and consequent blunting of insulin-induced vasodilation is a feature of type 2 diabetes (T2D) that contributes to vascular disease and glycemic dysregulation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying endothelial insulin resistance remain poorly known. Herein, we tested the hypothesis that endothelial insulin resistance in T2D is attributed to reduced expression of heat shock protein 72(HSP72). HSP72 is a cytoprotective chaperone protein that can be upregulated with heating and is reported to promote insulin sensitivity in metabolically active tissues, in part via inhibition of JNK activity. Accordingly, we further hypothesized that, in T2D individuals, seven days of passive heat treatment via hot water immersion to waist-level would improve leg blood flow responses to an oral glucose load (i.e., endogenous insulin stimulation) via induction of endothelial HSP72. In contrast, we found that: 1) endothelial insulin resistance in T2D mice and humans was not associated with reduced HSP72 in aortas and venous endothelial cells, respectively; 2) after passive heat treatment, improved leg blood flow responses to an oral glucose load did not parallel with increased endothelial HSP72; 3) downregulation of HSP72 (via small-interfering RNA) or upregulation of HSP72 (via heating) in cultured endothelial cells did not impair or enhance insulin signaling, respectively, nor was JNK activity altered. Collectively, these findings do not support the hypothesis that reduced HSP72 is a key driver of endothelial insulin resistance in T2D but provide novel evidence that lower-body heating may be an effective strategy for improving leg blood flow responses to glucose ingestion-induced hyperinsulinemia.

Abstract
AIM Heat therapy is a promising strategy to improve cardiometabolic health. This study evaluated the acute physiological responses to hot water immersion in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS On separate days in randomized order, 13 adults with T2DM (8 males/5 females, 62 ± 12 yrs, BMI: 30.1 ± 4.6 kg/m2) were immersed in thermoneutral (34°C, 90 minutes) or hot (41°C, core temperature ≥38.5°C for 60 minutes) water. Insulin sensitivity was quantified via the minimal oral model during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) performed 60 minutes after immersion. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and reactive hyperemia were evaluated before and 40 minutes after immersion. Blood samples were drawn to quantify protein concentrations and mRNA levels of HSP70 and 90, and circulating concentrations of cytokines. RESULTS Relative to thermoneutral water immersion, hot water immersion increased core temperature (+1.66°C [+1.47, +1.87], P<0.01), heart rate (+34 bpm [+24, +44], P<0.01), antegrade shear rate (+96 s-1 [+57, +134], P<0.01), and IL-6 (+1.38 pg/mL [+0.31, +2.45], P=0.01). Hot water immersion did not exert an acute change in insulin sensitivity (-0.3 dl/kg/min/μU/ml [-0.9, +0.2], P=0.18), FMD (-1.0% [-3.6, +1.6], P=0.56), peak (+0.36 mL/min/mmHg [-0.71, +1.43], P=0.64) and total (+0.11 mL/min/mmHg x min [-0.46, +0.68], P=0.87) reactive hyperemia. There was also no change in eHSP70 (P=0.64), iHSP70 (P=0.06), eHSP90 (P=0.80), iHSP90 (P=0.51), IL1-RA (P=0.11), GLP-1 (P=0.59) and NFkB (P=0.56) after hot water immersion. CONCLUSION The physiological responses elicited by hot water immersion do not acutely improve markers of cardiometabolic function in adults with T2DM.

Two hours of heat stress induces MAP-kinase signaling and autophagasome accumulation in C2C12 myotubes. Cell Biochem Biophys 2022; 80:367-373. [PMID: 35122618 DOI: 10.1007/s12013-021-01054-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
Short bouts of heat can induce a hormetic stress response, whereas prolonged or excessive exposure can elicit detrimental effects. We previously demonstrated an increase in autophagic signaling in C2C12 myotubes in response to 1 h of heat at 40 °C. In opposition, longer durations of heat exposure (e.g., 12 and 24 h) lead to an accumulation of autophagasomes and elevations in markers of cellular inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Whether a longer, yet moderate, duration of 2 h of heat further enhances autophagic flux and attenuates stress and inflammatory signaling, or transitions the cell toward a dysregulation of autophagy is unclear. In this study, C2C12 myotubes were maintained at 37 °C or exposed to 40 °C (HT) for 2 h, and harvested immediately or following 2, 8, or 24 h of recovery. Two hours of HT immediately increased pAMPK (T172; p = 0.001), and subsequently increased pULK1 (S555) at 2 h of recovery (p = 0.028). LC3 II was increased at 8 h (p = 0.043) and 24 h (p = 0.015) of recovery, whereas p62 was elevated at 2 h (p = 0.002) and 8 h (p < 0.001) of recovery, but returned to baseline by 24 h. In Bafilomycin A1 treated cells, p62 was further increased immediately following HT (p = 0.041). There was also a significant elevation in p-p38 (Thr180/Try182), pJNK (Thr183/Tyr185), and pNFκB (Ser536). These findings suggest that as short as 2 h of heat exposure contributes to cell stress and accumulation of autophagasomes in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity has nearly doubled worldwide over the past three and a half decades, reaching pandemic status. Obesity is associated with decreased life expectancy and with an increased risk of metabolic, cardiovascular, nervous system diseases. Hence, understanding the mechanisms involved in the onset and development of obesity is mandatory to promote planned health actions to revert this scenario. In this review, common aspects of cold exposure, a process of heat generation, and exercise, a process of heat dissipation, will be discussed as two opposite mechanisms of obesity, which can be oversimplified as caloric conservation. A common road between heat generation and dissipation is the mobilization of Free Faty Acids (FFA) and Carbohydrates (CHO). An increase in energy expenditure (immediate effect) and molecular/metabolic adaptations (chronic effect) are responses that depend on SNS activity in both conditions of heat transfer. This cycle of using and removing FFA and CHO from blood either for heat or force generation disrupt the key concept of obesity: energy accumulation. Despite efforts in making the anti-obesity pill, maybe it is time to consider that the world's population is living at thermoneutrality since temperature-controlled places and the lack of exercise are favoring caloric accumulation.

Abstract
We investigated whether substituting the final half within 60-min bouts of exercise with passive warm or cold water immersion would provide similar or greater benefits for cardiometabolic health. Thirty healthy participants were randomized to two of three short-term training interventions in a partial crossover (12 sessions over 14–16 days, 4 week washout): (i) EXS: 60 min cycling 70% maximum heart rate (HRmax), (ii) WWI: 30 min cycling then 30 min warm water (38–40°C) immersion, and/or (iii) CWI: 30 min cycling then 30 min cold water (10–12°C) immersion. Before and after, participants completed a 20 min cycle work trial, V.O2max test, and an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test during which indirect calorimetry was used to measure substrate oxidation and metabolic flexibility (slope of fasting to post-prandial carbohydrate oxidation). Data from twenty two participants (25 ± 5 year, BMI 23 ± 3 kg/m2, Female = 11) were analyzed using a fixed-effects linear mixed model. V.O2max increased more in EXS (interaction p = 0.004) than CWI (95% CI: 1.1, 5.3 mL/kg/min, Cohen’s d = 1.35), but not WWI (CI: −0.4, 3.9 mL/kg/min, d = 0.72). Work trial distance and power increased 383 ± 223 m and 20 ± 6 W, respectively, without differences between interventions (interaction both p > 0.68). WWI lowered post-prandial glucose ∼9% (CI −1.9, −0.5 mmol/L; d = 0.63), with no difference between interventions (interaction p = 0.469). Substituting the second half of exercise with WWI provides similar cardiometabolic health benefits to time matched exercise, however, substituting with CWI does not.

Abstract
Aerobic training leads to well‐known systemic metabolic and muscular alterations. Heat acclimation may also increase mitochondrial muscle mass. We studied the effects of heat acclimation combined with endurance training on metabolic adaptations of skeletal muscle. Thirty‐two rats were divided into four groups: control (C), trained (T), heat‐acclimated (H), and trained with heat acclimation (H+T) for 6 weeks. Soleus muscle metabolism was studied, notably by the in situ measurement of mitochondrial respiration with pyruvate (Pyr) or palmitoyl‐coenzyme A (PCoA), under phosphorylating conditions (V˙max) or not (V˙0). Aerobic performance increased, and retroperitoneal fat mass decreased with training, independently of heat exposure (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). Citrate synthase and hydroxyl‐acyl‐dehydrogenase activity increased with endurance training (p < 0.001 and p < 0.01, respectively), without any effect of heat acclimation. Training induced an increase of the V˙0 and V˙max for PCoA (p < .001 and p < .01, respectively), without interference with heat acclimation. The training‐induced increase of V˙0 (p < 0.01) for pyruvate oxidation was limited when combined with heat acclimation (−23%, p < 0.01). Training and heat acclimation independently increased the V˙max for pyruvate (+60% p < 0.001 and +50% p = 0.01, respectively), without an additive effect of the combination. Heat acclimation doubled the training effect on muscle glycogen storage (p < 0.001). Heat acclimation did not improve mitochondrial adaptations induced by endurance training in the soleus muscle, possibly limiting the alteration of carbohydrate oxidation while not facilitating fatty‐acid utilization. Furthermore, the increase in glycogen storage observed after HA combined with endurance training, without the improvement of pyruvate oxidation, appears to be a hypoxic metabolic phenotype.

Abstract
AIMS Strength training (ST) improves insulin resistance and glucose tolerance by yet unknown mechanisms. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of ST on mitochondrial adaptation in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, on heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) in skeletal muscle, and on visceral adipocyte size in mice with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced insulin resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Balb/c mice were divided into sedentary control-chow (C-chow), strength trained-chow (ST-chow), sedentary control-HFD (C-HFD) and strength trained-HFD (ST-HFD). Diet was provided for 12 weeks, while ladder climbing ST was performed for the final six weeks of the study at a frequency of three days per week. KEY FINDINGS Strength training led to increased strength, muscular endurance, and skeletal muscle hypertrophy. Compared to the C-HFD group, mice in the ST-HFD group decreased their whole-body insulin resistance, improved their glucose tolerance, and had higher activation of the insulin pathway in skeletal muscle. ST increased citrate synthase (CS) activity in skeletal muscle, but this increase was blunted in ST-HFD. Conversely, HFD reduced adipose tissue CS activity regardless of training status. Hsp72 content was reduced in C-HFD, but returned to control levels in ST-HFD. Finally, reduced epididymal adipocyte size was observed in ST-HFD. SIGNIFICANCE These results suggest that the improvement in insulin resistance induced by ST is related to mitochondrial adaptation in skeletal muscle, but not in adipose tissue. Moreover, this improvement might be related to increased skeletal muscle Hsp72 and reduced epididymal adipocyte size.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aerobic capacity is associated with metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological health. Low-capacity runner (LCR) rats display low aerobic capacity, metabolic dysfuction, and spatial memory deficits. A heat treatment (HT) can improve metabolic dysfunction in LCR peripheral organs after high fat diet (HFD). Little is known about metabolic changes in the brains of these rats following HT. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to examine the extent to which high or low aerobic capacity impacts Akt (a protein marker of metabolism) and heat shock protein 72 (HSP72, a marker of heat shock response) after HFD and HT in hippocampus. METHODS We measured phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) in the striatum and hippocampus, and HSP72 in the hippocampus, of HFD-fed and chow-fed LCR and high-capacity runner (HCR) rats with and without HT. RESULTS pAkt was lower in the hippocampus of chow-fed LCR than HCR rats. HFD resulted in greater pAkt in LCR but not HCR rats, but HT resulted in lower pAkt in the LCR HFD group. HSP72 was greater in both HCR and LCR rat hippocampus after HT. The HFD blunted this effect in LCR compared to HCR hippocampus. CONCLUSION The abnormal phosphorylation of Akt and diminished HSP response in the hippocampus of young adult LCR rats might indicate early vulnerability to metabolic challenges in this key brain region associated with learning and memory.

Abstract
Insulin resistance (IR) underpins a wide range of metabolic disorders including type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. IR is characterized by a marked reduction in the magnitude and/or delayed onset of insulin to stimulate glucose disposal. This condition is due to defects in one or several intracellular intermediates of the insulin signaling cascade, ranging from insulin receptor substrate (IRS) inactivation to reduced glucose phosphorylation and oxidation. Genetic predisposition, as well as other precipitating factors such as aging, obesity, and sedentary lifestyles are among the risk factors underlying the pathogenesis of IR and its subsequent progression to T2D. One of the cardinal hallmarks of T2D is the impairment of the heat shock response (HSR). Human and animal studies provided compelling evidence of reduced expression of several components of the HSR (i.e. Heat shock proteins or HSPs) in diabetic samples in a manner that correlates with the degree of IR. Interventions that induce the HSR, irrespective of the means to achieve it, proved their effectiveness in enhancing insulin sensitivity and improving glycemic index. However, most of these studies have been focused on HSP70 family. In this review, we will focus on the novel role of DNAJ/HSP40 cochaperone family in metabolic diseases associated with IR.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and progressive insulin resistance, leading to macro and microvascular dysfunction. Passive heating has potential to improve glucose homeostasis and act as an exercise mimetic. We assessed the effect of acute passive heating before or during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in people with T2DM. Twelve people with T2DM were randomly assigned to the following three conditions: 1) 3-h OGTT (control), 2) 1-h passive heating (40°C water) 30 min before an OGTT (HOT-OGTT), and 3) 1-h passive heating (40°C water) 30 min after commencing an OGTT (OGTT-HOT). Blood glucose concentration, insulin sensitivity, extracellular heat shock protein 70 (eHSP70), total energy expenditure (TEE), heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were recorded. Passive heating did not alter blood glucose concentration [control: 1,677 (386) arbitrary units (AU), HOT-OGTT: 1,797 (340) AU, and OGTT-HOT: 1,662 (364) AU, P = 0.28], insulin sensitivity (P = 0.15), or SBP (P = 0.18) but did increase eHSP70 concentration in both heating conditions [control: 203.48 (110.81) pg·mL-1; HOT-OGTT: 402.47 (79.02) pg·mL-1; and OGTT-HOT: 310.00 (60.53) pg·mL-1, P < 0.001], increased TEE (via fat oxidation) in the OGTT-HOT condition [control: 263 (33) kcal, HOT-OGTT: 278 (40) kcal, and OGTT-HOT: 304 (38) kcal, P = 0.001], increased HR in both heating conditions (P < 0.001), and reduced DBP in the OGTT-HOT condition (P < 0.01). Passive heating in close proximity to a glucose challenge does not alter glucose tolerance but does increase eHSP70 concentration and TEE and reduce blood pressure in people with T2DM.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This is the first study to investigate the timing of acute passive heating on glucose tolerance and extracellular heat shock protein 70 concentration ([eHSP70]) in people with type 2 diabetes. The principal novel findings from this study were that both passive heating conditions: 1) did not reduce the area under the curve or peak blood glucose concentration, 2) elevated heart rate, and 3) increased [eHSP70], which was blunted by glucose ingestion, while passive heating following glucose ingestion, 4) increased total energy expenditure, and 5) reduced diastolic blood pressure.

Abstract
Nonacholic fatty liver disease, or hepatic steatosis, is the most common liver disorder affecting the western world and currently has no pharmacologic cure. Thus, many investigations have focused on alternative strategies to treat or prevent hepatic steatosis. Our laboratory has shown that chronic heat treatment (HT) mitigates glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, and hepatic steatosis in rodent models of obesity. Here, we investigate the direct bioenergetic mechanism(s) surrounding the metabolic effects of HT on hepatic mitochondria. Utilizing mitochondrial proteomics and respiratory function assays, we show that one bout of acute HT (42°C for 20 min) in male C57Bl/6J mice (n = 6/group) triggers a hepatic mitochondrial heat shock response resulting in acute reductions in respiratory capacity, degradation of key mitochondrial enzymes, and induction of mitophagy via mitochondrial ubiquitination. We also show that chronic bouts of HT and recurrent activation of the heat shock response enhances mitochondrial quality and respiratory function via compensatory adaptations in mitochondrial organization, gene expression, and transport even during 4 weeks of high-fat feeding (n = 6/group). Finally, utilizing a liver-specific heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) knockout model, we are the first to show that HSP72, a protein putatively driving the HT metabolic response, does not play a significant role in the hepatic mitochondrial adaptation to acute or chronic HT. However, HSP72 is required for the reductions in blood glucose observed with chronic HT. Our data are the first to suggest that chronic HT (1) improves hepatic mitochondrial respiratory efficiency via mitochondrial remodeling and (2) reduces blood glucose in a hepatic HSP72-dependent manner.

Abstract
Heat therapy (HT) has emerged as a potential adjunctive therapy to alleviate the symptoms of peripheral artery disease (PAD), but the mechanisms underlying the positive effects of this treatment modality remain undefined. Using a model of diet-induced obesity (DIO) and ischemia-induced muscle damage, we tested the hypothesis that HT would alter body composition, promote vascular growth and mitochondrial biogenesis, and improve skeletal muscle function. Male DIO C57Bl/6J mice underwent bilateral ligation of the femoral artery and were randomly allocated to receive HT or a control intervention for 30 min daily over 3 wk. When compared with a group of lean, sham-operated animals, ligated DIO mice exhibited increases in body and fat masses, exercise intolerance, and contractile dysfunction of the isolated soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles. Repeated HT averted an increase in body mass induced by high-fat feeding due to reduced fat accrual. Fat mass was ∼25% and 29% lower in the HT group relative to controls after 2 and 3 wk of treatment, respectively. Muscle mass relative to body mass and maximal absolute force of the EDL, but not SOL, were higher in animals exposed to HT. There were no group differences in skeletal muscle capillarization, the expression of angiogenic factors, mitochondrial content, and the diameter of the gracilis arteries. These findings indicate that HT reduces diet-induced fat accumulation and rescues skeletal muscle contractile dysfunction. This practical treatment may prove useful for diabetic and obese PAD patients who are unable to undergo conventional exercise regimens.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The epidemic of obesity-related dyslipidemia and diabetes is a central cause of the increasing burden of peripheral artery disease (PAD), but few accessible therapies exist to mitigate the metabolic and functional abnormalities in these patients. We report that daily exposure to heat therapy (HT) in the form of lower-body immersion in water heated to 39 °C for 3 weeks attenuates fat accumulation and weight gain, and improves muscle strength in obese mice with femoral artery occlusion.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease, yet there are no disease-modifying treatments available and there is no cure. It is becoming apparent that metabolic and vascular conditions such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hypertension promote the development and accumulation of Alzheimer's disease-related dementia pathologies. To this end, aerobic exercise, which is a common lifestyle intervention for both metabolic disease and hypertension, is shown to improve brain health during both healthy aging and dementia. However, noncompliance or other barriers to exercise response are common in exercise treatment paradigms. In addition, reduced intracellular proteostasis and mitochondrial function could contribute to the etiology of AD. Specifically, compromised chaperone systems [i.e., heat shock protein (HSP) systems] can contribute to protein aggregates (i.e., β-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles) and reduced mitochondrial quality control (i.e., mitophagy). Therefore, novel therapies that target whole body metabolism, the vasculature, and chaperone systems (like HSPs) are needed to effectively treat AD. This review focuses on the role of heat therapy in the treatment and prevention of AD. Heat therapy has been independently shown to reduce whole body insulin resistance, improve vascular function, activate interorgan cross talk via endocytic vesicles, and activate HSPs to improve mitochondrial function and proteostasis in a variety of tissues. Thus, heat therapy could offer immense clinical benefit to patients suffering from AD. Importantly, future studies in patients are needed to determine the safety and efficacy of heat therapy in preventing AD.

Abstract
Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex condition comprising a ‘clustering’ of components representing cardiometabolic risk factors for heart disease and diabetes; its prevalence rate is high and consequences serious. Evidence suggests that light exposure patterns and misalignment of circadian rhythms might contribute to MetS etiology by impacting energy metabolism and glucose regulation. Objective We hypothesised that individuals with MetS would show disrupted circadian and sleep parameters alongside differences in light exposure profiles. We investigated this using data from a cohort study in Brazil. Methods Data from 103 individuals from the Baependi Heart Cohort Study aged between 50 and 70 were analysed. Motor activity and light exposure were measured using wrist-worn actigraphy devices. Cardiometabolic data were used to calculate the number of MetS components present in each participant, and participants grouped as MetS/non-MetS according to standard guidelines. Between-group comparisons were made for the actigraphy measures; additionally, correlation analyses were conducted. Results Motor activity and circadian profiles showed no differences between groups. However, the MetS group presented lower light exposure during the day and higher light exposure at night. Correlation analyses, including all participants, showed that greater daytime light exposure and greater light exposure difference between day and night were associated with reduced MetS risk (a lower number of MetS components). Also, the light exposure difference between day and night correlated with body mass index across all participants. Conclusions The observed results suggest a direct association between light exposure and MetS which appears to not be attributable to disruptions in circadian activity rhythm nor to sleep parameters. This link between light exposure patterns and MetS risk could inform possible prevention strategies.

Abstract
Chronic hot water immersion (HWI) confers health benefits, including a reduction in fasting blood glucose concentration. Here we investigate acute glycemic control immediately after HWI. Ten participants (age: 25 ± 6 years, body mass: 84 ± 14 kg, height 1.85 ± 0.09 m) were immersed in water (39°C) to the neck (HWI) or sat at room temperature (CON) for 60 min. One hour afterward they underwent an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), with blood collected before and after HWI/CON and during the 2 h OGTT. Glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) during the OGTT was higher for HWI (HWI 233 ± 88, CON 156 ± 79 mmol·L-1 ·2 h, P = 0.02). Insulin iAUC did not differ between conditions (HWI 4309 ± 3660, CON 3893 ± 3031 mU·L-1 ·2 h, P = 0.32). Core temperature increased to 38.6 ± 0.2°C during HWI, but was similar between trials during the OGTT (HWI 37.0 ± 0.2, CON 36.9 ± 0.4°C, P = 0.34). Directly following HWI, plasma average adrenaline and growth hormone concentrations increased 2.7 and 10.7-fold, respectively (P < 0.001). Plasma glucagon-like peptide-1, peptide YY, and acylated ghrelin concentrations were not different between trials during the OGTT (P > 0.11). In conclusion, HWI increased postprandial glucose concentration to an OGTT, which was accompanied by acute elevations of stress hormones following HWI. The altered glycemic control appears to be unrelated to changes in gut hormones during the OGTT.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death worldwide and aging is the primary risk factor for CVD. The development of vascular dysfunction, including endothelial dysfunction and stiffening of the large elastic arteries (i.e., the aorta and carotid arteries), contribute importantly to the age-related increase in CVD risk. Vascular aging is driven in large part by oxidative stress, which reduces bioavailability of nitric oxide and promotes alterations in the extracellular matrix. A key upstream driver of vascular oxidative stress is age-associated mitochondrial dysfunction. This review will focus on vascular mitochondria, mitochondrial dysregulation and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and discuss current evidence for prevention and treatment of vascular aging via lifestyle and pharmacological strategies that improve mitochondrial health. We will also identify promising areas and important considerations ('research gaps') for future investigation.

Abstract
Adaptive cellular stress response confers stress tolerance against inflammatory and metabolic disorders. In response to metabolic stress, the key mediator of cellular adaptation and tolerance is a class of molecules called the molecular chaperones (MCs). MCs are highly conserved molecules that play critical role in maintaining protein stability and functionality. Hormesis in this context is a unique adaptation mechanism where a low dose of a stressor (which is toxic at high dose) confers a stress-resistant adaptive cellular phenotype. Hormesis can be observed at different level of biological organization at various measurable endpoints. The MCs are believed to play a key role in adaptation during hormesis. Several phytochemicals are known for their hormetic response and are called phytochemical hormetins. The role of phytochemical-mediated hormesis on the adaptive cellular processes is proposed as a potential therapeutic approach to target inflammation associated with metabolic syndrome. However, the screening of phytochemical hormetins would require a paradigm shift in the methods currently used in drug discovery.

Abstract
The therapeutic effects of heat have been harnessed for centuries to treat skeletal muscle disorders and other pathologies. However, the fundamental mechanisms underlying the well-documented clinical benefits associated with heat therapy (HT) remain poorly defined. Foundational studies in cultured skeletal muscle and endothelial cells, as well as in rodents, revealed that episodic exposure to heat stress activates a number of intracellular signaling networks and promotes skeletal muscle remodeling. Renewed interest in the physiology of HT in recent years has provided greater understanding of the signals and molecular players involved in the skeletal muscle adaptations to episodic exposures to HT. It is increasingly clear that heat stress promotes signaling mechanisms involved in angiogenesis, muscle hypertrophy, mitochondrial biogenesis, and glucose metabolism through not only elevations in tissue temperature but also other perturbations, including increased intramyocellular calcium and enhanced energy turnover. The few available translational studies seem to indicate that the earlier observations in rodents also apply to human skeletal muscle. Indeed, recent findings revealed that both local and whole-body HT may promote capillary growth, enhance mitochondrial content and function, improve insulin sensitivity and attenuate disuse-induced muscle wasting. This accumulating body of work implies that HT may be a practical treatment to combat skeletal abnormalities in individuals with chronic disease who are unwilling or cannot participate in traditional exercise-training regimens.

Abstract
There is a sustained reduction in arterial blood pressure that occurs in aged adults following exposure to acute leg heating. We tested the hypothesis that acute leg heating would decrease arterial blood pressure in aged adults secondary to sympathoinhibition. We exposed 13 young and 10 aged adults to 45 min of leg heating. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (radial nerve) was measured before leg heating (preheat) and 30 min after (recovery) and is expressed as burst frequency. Neurovascular transduction was examined by assessing the slope of the relation between muscle sympathetic nerve activity and leg vascular conductance measured at rest and during isometric handgrip exercise performed to fatigue. Arterial blood pressure was well maintained in young adults (preheat, 86 ± 6 mmHg vs. recovery, 88 ± 7 mmHg; P = 0.4) due to increased sympathetic nerve activity (preheat, 16 ± 7 bursts/min vs. recovery, 22 ± 10 bursts/min; P < 0.01). However, in aged adults, sympathetic nerve activity did not differ from preheat (37 ± 5 bursts/min) to recovery (33 ± 6 bursts/min, P = 0.1), despite a marked reduction in arterial blood pressure (preheat, 101 ± 7 mmHg vs. recovery, 94 ± 6 mmHg; P < 0.01). Neurovascular transduction did not differ from preheat to recovery for either age group (P ≥ 0.1). The reduction in arterial blood pressure that occurs in aged adults following exposure to acute leg heating is mediated, in part, by a sympathoinhibitory effect that alters the compensatory neural response to hypotension.NEW & NOTEWORTHY There is a sustained reduction in arterial blood pressure that occurs in aged adults following exposure to acute leg heating. However, the neurovascular mechanisms mediating this response remain unknown. Our findings demonstrate for the first time that this reduction in arterial blood pressure is mediated, in part, by a sympathoinhibitory effect that alters the compensatory neural response to hypotension in aged adults.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is still a global health problem. Current T2DM treatments are limited to curing the symptoms and have not been able to restore insulin sensitivity in insulin-sensitive tissues that have become resistant. In the past decade, some studies have shown the significant role of a chaperone family, heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), in insulin resistance pathogenesis that leads to T2DM. HSP70 is a cytoprotective molecular chaperone that functions in protein folding and degradation. In general, studies have shown that decreased concentration of HSP70 is able to induce inflammation process through JNK activation, inhibit fatty acid oxidation by mitochondria through mitophagy decrease and mitochondrial biogenesis, as well as activate SREBP-1c, one of the lipogenic gene transcription factors in ER stress. The overall molecular pathways are potentially leading to insulin resistance and T2DM. Increased expression of HSP70 in brain tissues is able to improve insulin sensitivity and glycemic control specifically. HSP70 modulation-targeting strategies (including long-term physical exercise, hot tub therapy (HTT), and administration of alfalfa-derived HSP70 (aHSP70)) in subjects with insulin resistance are proven to have therapeutic and preventive potency that are promising in T2DM management.

Abstract
Autophagy is a major intracellular degradation process that is essential for the clearance of unnecessary proteins/organelles and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. The inhibition of autophagy results in cellular consequences associated with many skeletal muscle pathologies, and therapies designed to elevate autophagic activity may provide protection from such pathologies. Acute exposure to low levels of heat has therapeutic effects; however, the impact of heat on skeletal muscle autophagy remains unclear. In the present study, C2C12 myotubes were maintained at 37°C thermoneutral (TN) or heated at 40°C heat treatment (HT) for 1 h. Myotubes were harvested immediately after heating, or returned to 37°C for recovery of 2 or 24 h. HT resulted in an elevation in pAMPK (T172), Beclin-1, and LC3 II, a marker for autophagosome formation, but no change in p62. In the context of autophagy inhibition with Bafilomycin A1, HT resulted in lower LC3 II compared to TN. The applied heat load induced the heat shock response, as evidenced by immediate upregulation of HSF1 and Hsp70. Hsp70 continued to increase during recovery, whereas pHsp27 was downregulated acutely in response to HT, but retuned to TN levels by 2 h of recovery. HT also reduced the phosphorylation of the MAP-kinases p38 and JNK. These findings suggest that an acute, short bout of mild heat may be beneficial to skeletal muscle by increasing AMPK activity, markers of autophagasome formation, and the heat shock response.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of the study? Does the action of l-citrulline, which has been shown to augment performance in animals and athletes, possibly via increasing mitochondrial function, translate to obese animals, and does this improve glycaemia? What is the main finding and its importance? Chronic supplementation with l-citrulline improves not only exercise capacity, but also glycaemia in obese mice, which would be beneficial as obese individuals are at increased risk for type 2 diabetes. However, l-citrulline supplementation also caused a mild impairment in insulin signalling and insulin tolerance in obese mice. ABSTRACT: l-Citrulline is an organic α-amino acid that has been shown to have a number of salutary actions on whole-body physiology, including reducing muscle wasting and augmenting exercise and muscle performance. The latter has been suggested to arise from elevations in mitochondrial function. Because enhancing mitochondrial function has been proposed as a novel strategy to mitigate insulin resistance, our goal was to determine whether supplementation with l-citrulline could also improve glycaemia in an experimental mouse model of obesity. We hypothesized that l-citrulline treatment would improve glycaemia in obese mice, and this would be associated with elevations in skeletal muscle mitochondrial function. Ten-week-old C57BL/6J mice were fed either a low-fat (10% kcal from lard) or a high-fat (60% kcal from lard) diet, while receiving drinking water supplemented with either vehicle or l-citrulline (0.6 g l-1 ) for 15 weeks. Glucose homeostasis was assessed via glucose/insulin tolerance testing, while in vivo metabolism was assessed via indirect calorimetry, and forced exercise treadmill testing was utilized to assess endurance. As expected, obese mice supplemented with l-citrulline exhibited an increase in exercise capacity, which was associated with an improvement in glucose tolerance. Consistent with augmented mitochondrial function, we observed an increase in whole body oxygen consumption rates in obese mice supplemented with l-citrulline. Surprisingly, l-citrulline supplementation worsened insulin tolerance and reduced insulin signalling in obese mice. Taken together, although l-citrulline supplementation improves both glucose tolerance and exercise capacity in obese mice, caution must be applied with its broad use as a nutraceutical due to a potential deterioration of insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To clarify the relationship between daily hot water bathing (HWB) at home and glycemic control in middle-aged and elderly ambulatory patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS We defined hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) as the main outcome. We set 7.0% based on the mean value of the dependent variable as the cut-off point for analysis. Frequency of HWB was an explanatory variable. A two-sample t-test was used to compare between groups with continuous variables. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed for frequency, adjusted age, sex, BMI, T2DM duration (Model 1), and other confounding factors (Model 2). Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated. RESULTS Among 838 patients, there was a significant difference (p<0.001) in age between males (n=528, 62.8±8.7 years) and females (n=310, 65.0±8.1 years). In Model 1, compared with participants who used HWB more than seven times a week, those with poorly controlled HbA1c were significantly associated with low frequency of HWB: four to six times a week (OR 1.32, 95% CI 0.87-1.99) and less than three times a week (OR 1.43, 95% CI 0.98-2.10); p-value for overall trend was 0.041. In Model 2, p-value for overall trend was 0.138. CONCLUSION A higher frequency of HWB was moderately associated with a decreased risk of poor glycemic control in middle-aged and elderly ambulatory patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with high rates of obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Repeated passive heat exposure (termed heat therapy) is a novel lifestyle intervention for improving health in obese women with PCOS. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in metabolic function in obese women with PCOS following heat therapy. Eighteen age- and BMI-matched obese women with PCOS (age: 27 ± 1 yr, BMI: 41.3 ± 1.1 kg/m-2) were assigned to heat therapy (HT) or time control (CON). HT participants underwent 30 one-hour hot tub sessions over 8-10 wk, while CON participants completed all testing but did not undergo heat therapy. Before (Pre), at the mid-point (Mid), and following (Post) 8-10 wk of heat therapy, metabolic health was assessed using a 2-h oral glucose tolerance test, a subcutaneous abdominal fat biopsy (Pre-Post only), and other blood markers relating to metabolic function. HT participants exhibited improved fasting glucose (Pre: 105 ± 3, Post: 89 ± 5mg/dl; P = 0.001), glucose area under the curve (AUC) (Pre: 18,698 ± 1,045, Post: 16,987 ± 1,017 mg·dl-1·min-1; P = 0.028) and insulin AUC (Pre: 126,924 ± 11,730, Post: 91,233 ± 14,429 IU l-1·min-1; P = 0.012). Adipocyte insulin signaling (p-AKT at Ser-473 with 1.2 nM insulin) increased in HT (Pre: 0.29 ± 0.14, Post: 0.93 ± 0.29 AU; P = 0.021). Additionally, serum testosterone declined in HT participants (Pre: 51 ± 7, Post: 34 ± 4 ng/dl; P = 0.033). No parameters changed over time in CON, and no change in BMI was observed in either group. HT substantially improved metabolic risk profile in obese women with PCOS. HT also reduced androgen excess and may improve PCOS symptomology.

Abstract
Weight loss plans in horses typically use dietary restriction, but exercise may have additional benefits. This study aimed to compare the effects of a diet or exercise protocol resulting in comparable caloric restriction in obese horses. Ten obese horses were paired according to sex, age, and breed or breed type. One horse from each pair was randomly assigned to either diet (DIET)-intake restricted to approximately 85% of digestible energy requirements or exercise (EX)-exercised to expend approximately 15% of digestible energy requirements, resulting in 85% of requirements available, for 4 weeks. Body weight (BW), heart girth (HG), girth-to-height ratio (G:H), neck circumference (NC), neck circumference-to-height ratio (NC:H), belly girth (BG), body condition score (BCS), cresty neck score (CNS), serum insulin, plasma leptin, and plasma ghrelin concentrations were measured weekly. An oral sugar test was conducted on days 0 and 28 to measure insulin to glucose ratio (Ins:glc) and 60-minute insulin sensitivity index (ISI60). Results were analyzed using repeated measures. A P ≤ .05 was considered significant, and .05 <P ≤ .10 was considered a tendency. Both groups showed similar decreases over time in BW, HG, G:H, BG, BCS, and CNS, but the EX group showed significantly greater losses in NC (and NC:H). The EX group showed significant improvements in (log) Ins:glc, as well as a tendency for improvements in (log) ISI60 and plasma leptin concentrations, while the DIET group showed no change. Horses showed no changes in (log) plasma ghrelin with weight loss.

Abstract
Objective Passive heating (PH) has begun to gain research attention as an alternative therapy for cardio-metabolic diseases. Whether PH improves glycaemic control in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals is unknown. This study aims to review and conduct a meta-analysis of published literature relating to PH and glycaemic control. Methods Electronic data sources, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science from inception to July 2018 were searched for randomised controlled trials (RCT) studying the effect of PH on glycaemic control in diabetic or non-diabetic individuals. To measure the treatment effect, standardised mean differences (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Results Fourteen articles were included in the meta-analysis. Following a glucose load, glucose concentration was greater during PH in non-diabetic (SMD 0.75, 95% CI 1.02 to 0.48, P < 0.001) and diabetic individuals (SMD 0.27, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.02, P = 0.030). In non-diabetic individuals, glycaemic control did not differ between PH and control only (SMD 0.11, 95% CI 0.44 to -0.22, P > 0.050) and a glucose challenge given within 24 hours post-heating (SMD 0.30, 95% CI 0.62 to -0.02, P > 0.050). Conclusion PH preceded by a glucose load results in acute glucose intolerance in non-diabetic and diabetic individuals. However, heating a non-diabetic individual without a glucose load appears not to affect glycaemic control. Likewise, a glucose challenge given within 24 hours of a single-bout of heating does not affect glucose tolerance in non-diabetic individuals. Despite the promise PH may hold, no short-term benefit to glucose tolerance is observed in non-diabetic individuals. More research is needed to elucidate whether this alternative therapy benefits diabetic individuals.

Abstract
Failure of the heat shock response is a key event that leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. We recently showed that DNAJB3 co-chaperone is downregulated in obese and diabetic patients and that physical exercise restores its normal expression with a significant improvement of the clinical outcomes. In 3T3-L1 adipocytes, DNAJB3 has a role in improving the sensitivity to insulin and glucose uptake. In co-immunoprecipitation assays, DNAJB3 interacts with both JNK1 and IKKβ kinases. However, the functional impact of such interaction on their activities has not been investigated. Here, we assessed the effect of DNAJB3 on the respective activity of JNK1 and IKKβ in cell-based assays. Using JNK1- and IKKβ-dependent luciferase reporters, we show a marked decrease in luciferase activity by DNAJB3 in response to PMA and TNF-α that was consistent with a decrease in the translocation of p65/NF-κB to the nucleus in response to LPS. Furthermore, TNF-α-mediated IL-6 promoter activation and endogenous mRNA expression are significantly abrogated by DNAJB3 both in 3T3-L1 and C2C12 cells. The ability of DNAJB3 to mitigate ER stress and oxidative stress was also investigated and our data show a significant improvement of both forms of stress. Finally, we examined the effect of overexpressing and knocking down the expression of DNAJB3 on glucose uptake in C2C12 as well as the molecular determinants. Accordingly, we provide evidence for a role of DNAJB3 in promoting both basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. Our finding reveals also a novel role of DNAJB3 in eliciting Glut4 translocation to the plasma membrane. These results suggest a physiological role of DNAJB3 in mitigating metabolic stress and improving glucose homeostasis and could therefore represent a novel therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Metabolic surgery ameliorates insulin resistance and is associated with long-term, effective weight loss, but the mechanisms involved remain unknown. Here, the duodenal-jejunal omega switch (DJOS) surgery in combination with high-fat, high-carbohydrate diet was performed on diet obese rats and joint effects of bariatric surgery and different dietary patterns on heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and HSP90 plasma and liver concentrations were measured. We found that plasma and liver levels of HSP70 were lower after DJOS surgery in comparison to the control in the groups of animals kept on control diet (CD) and high-fat, high-sugar diet (HFS) but the postoperative change of the diet led to the increase in HSP70 in plasma and liver concentration in DJOS-operated animals. A high-calorie meal, rich in carbohydrates and fats, significantly increased circulating levels of HSP90, reducing the normalising effect of DJOS. The HFS diet applied during all stages of the experiment led to the higher levels of liver HSP90 concentration. The combination of CD and DJOS surgery was the most efficient in the lowering of the HSP90 liver concentration. The normalisation of circulating levels and liver concentrations of HSP70 and HSP90 may be achieved in a combination of DJOS procedure with a proper dietary plan.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) is a major inducible molecule in the heat shock response that enhances intracellular stress tolerance. Decreased expression of HSP72 is observed in type 2 diabetes, which may contribute to the development of insulin resistance and chronic inflammation. We used HSP72 knockout (HSP72-KO) mice to investigate the impact of HSP72 on glucose metabolism and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, particularly in the liver. Under a high-fat diet (HFD) condition, HSP72-KO mice showed glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion, and enhanced hepatic gluconeogenic activity. Furthermore, activity of the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) was increased and insulin signaling suppressed in the liver. Liver-specific expression of HSP72 by lentivirus (lenti) in HFD-fed HSP72-KO mice ameliorated insulin resistance and hepatic gluconeogenic activity. Furthermore, increased adipocyte size and hepatic steatosis induced by the HFD were suppressed in HSP72-KO lenti-HSP72 mice. Increased JNK activity and ER stress upon HFD were suppressed in the liver as well as the white adipose tissue of HSP72-KO lenti-HSP72 mice. Thus, HSP72 KO caused a deterioration in glucose metabolism, hepatic gluconeogenic activity, and β-cell function. Moreover, liver-specific recovery of HSP72 restored glucose homeostasis. Therefore, hepatic HSP72 may play a critical role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Heat preconditioning and heat-shock protein (HSP) synthesis have significant cytoprotective effects against the development of cellular injury caused by the application of a subsequent stressor, which were found to depend on the time period between the stressors. We aimed to determine the most efficient recovery time (6 h or 24 h) following heat-stress exposure and prior application of diabetic streptozotocin (STZ) on the moderation of carbohydrate and oxidative metabolic disturbances caused by diabetes. METHODS Experiment animals (Wistar rats) were exposed to acute heat stress at 41±1°C for 45 min, followed by 6-h or 24-h recovery times at room temperature before sacrifice or STZ administration. RESULTS Our findings indicate that acute heat stress with 6-h or 24-h recovery periods results in a significant rise in the hepatic heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) levels (even more so after 24 h), glycogen breakdown and stable glycemia, followed by reduced glycolytic and gluconeogenic activity (after 24 h) (glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase); stimulates antioxidative activity (glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase) (after 6 h); and decreases glutathione and catalase activity (after 24 h). Heat preconditioning (with 6-h and 24-h recovery periods) prior to STZ-induced diabetes increases HSP70 levels and causes lower serum glucose levels, higher glycogen and glucose-6-phosphate levels, lower glucose-6-phosphatase levels and glycogen phosphorylase and hexokinase levels but also elevates glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase activity compared to untreated STZ animals. CONCLUSIONS Based on our findings, heat preconditioning and HSP70 induction in rats with type 1 diabetes attenuates STZ-induced metabolic alterations in hepatic carbohydrate metabolism and oxidative states. These changes are more evident at 24 h recovery post-acute heat stress, based on the most evident accumulation of HSP70 in this time frame.

Heat preconditioning and aspirin treatment attenuate hepatic carbohydrate-related disturbances in diabetic rats. J Therm Biol 2019; 79:190-198. [PMID: 30612679 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtherbio.2018.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2018] [Revised: 11/19/2018] [Accepted: 12/09/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Heat preconditioning (HP) is a powerful adaptive and protective phenomenon and induces moderation of diabetic alterations in glycogen metabolism of rats. Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA), as a multifunctional drug has also been reported to exert hypoglycemic effects in the treatment of diabetes. We estimated the effect of HP (45 min/41 ± 0.5 °C/24 h recovery) and single dose aspirin (100 mg/kg b.w./i.p) treatment over carbohydrate-related enzymes and substrates in a time-dependent (2, 7 and 14 days) manner of duration of diabetes in the liver of rats. Heat preconditioning resulted in lower liver glucose concentration, but higher HK activity and lower G6P-ase; very evident and significantly higher glycogen content and GPho-ase activity, as well as very evident and significantly lower F1,6BP-ase and higher PFK activity compared to control diabetic animals. Aspirin pretreatment of HP-diabetic animals is manifested with significantly lower blood and liver glucose, higher G6P concentration, lower G6P-ase and HK activity as well as higher Glk content and GPho-ase activity, compared both to diabetic and HP-diabetic animals. In conclusion, both HP and aspirin, as physiological and pharmacological inductors of HSP70, respectively, attenuate the carbohydrate-related disturbances in diabetic rats, with almost tendency to normalisation to the control values for most of the estimated parameters.
