Abstract
Glucose homeostasis is achieved via complex interactions between the endocrine pancreas and other peripheral tissues and glucoregulatory neurocircuits in the brain that remain incompletely defined. Within the brain, neurons in the hypothalamus appear to play a particularly important role. Consistent with this notion, we report evidence that (pro)renin receptor (PRR) signaling within a subset of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) neurons located in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVNTH neurons) is a physiological determinant of the defended blood glucose level. Specifically, we demonstrate that PRR deletion from PVNTH neurons restores normal glucose homeostasis in mice with diet-induced obesity (DIO). Conversely, chemogenetic inhibition of PVNTH neurons mimics the deleterious effect of DIO on glucose. Combined with our finding that PRR activation inhibits PVNTH neurons, these findings suggest that, in mice, (a) PVNTH neurons play a physiological role in glucose homeostasis, (b) PRR activation impairs glucose homeostasis by inhibiting these neurons, and (c) this mechanism plays a causal role in obesity-associated metabolic impairment.

Abstract
CONTEXT Insulin resistance is associated with multiple complex diseases; however, precise measures of insulin resistance are invasive, expensive, and time-consuming. OBJECTIVE Develop estimation models for measures of insulin resistance, including insulin sensitivity index (SI) and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) from metabolomics data. DESIGN Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Family Study (IRASFS). SETTING Community based. PARTICIPANTS Mexican Americans (MA) and African Americans (AA). MAIN OUTCOME Estimation models for measures of insulin resistance, i.e. SI and HOMA-IR. RESULTS Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) and Elastic Net regression were used to build insulin resistance estimation models from 1274 metabolites combined with clinical data, e.g. age, sex, body mass index (BMI). Metabolite data were transformed using three approaches, i.e. inverse normal transformation, standardization, and Box Cox transformation. The analysis was performed in one MA recruitment site (San Luis Valley, Colorado (SLV); N = 450) and tested in another MA recruitment site (San Antonio, Texas (SA); N = 473). In addition, the two MA recruitment sites were combined and estimation models tested in the AA recruitment sample (Los Angeles, California; N = 495). Estimated and empiric SI were correlated in the SA (r2 = 0.77) and AA (r2 = 0.74) testing datasets. Further, estimated and empiric SI were consistently associated with BMI, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), and triglycerides. We applied similar approaches to estimate HOMA-IR with similar results. CONCLUSIONS We have developed a method for estimating insulin resistance with metabolomics data that has the potential for application to a wide range of biomedical studies and conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) promote urinary glucose excretion, induce weight loss, and reduce fat accumulation. The effects of the SGLT2i dapagliflozin (DAPA) on subcutaneous (SC) and visceral (VIS) adipose tissue function remain unclear. The objective of this study is to evaluate SC and VIS adipose tissue function in an insulin-resistant canine model. METHODS A total of 12 dogs were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 6 weeks and then were given a single low dose of streptozotocin (18.5 mg/kg) to induce insulin resistance. Animals were then randomized and exposed to DAPA (n = 6, 1.25 mg/kg) or placebo (n = 6) once per day for 6 weeks while remaining on the HFD. RESULTS DAPA prevented further weight gain induced by the HFD and normalized fat mass. DAPA reduced fasting glucose and increased free fatty acids, adiponectin, and β-hydroxybutyrate. DAPA reduced adipocyte diameter and cell distribution. Furthermore, DAPA increased genes associated with beiging, lipolysis, and adiponectin secretion and the expression of the adiponectin receptor ADR2, in SC and VIS adipose tissue. DAPA increased AMP-activated protein kinase activity and maximal mitochondrial respiratory function, especially in the SC depot. Furthermore, DAPA reduced cytokines and ceramide synthesis enzymes in SC and VIS depots. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, to our knowledge, we identify mechanisms by which DAPA enhances adipose tissue function in regulating energy homeostasis in an insulin-resistant canine model.

Abstract
Distinct tissue-specific mechanisms mediate insulin action in fasting and postprandial states. Previous genetic studies have largely focused on insulin resistance in the fasting state, where hepatic insulin action dominates. Here we studied genetic variants influencing insulin levels measured 2 h after a glucose challenge in >55,000 participants from three ancestry groups. We identified ten new loci (P < 5 × 10-8) not previously associated with postchallenge insulin resistance, eight of which were shown to share their genetic architecture with type 2 diabetes in colocalization analyses. We investigated candidate genes at a subset of associated loci in cultured cells and identified nine candidate genes newly implicated in the expression or trafficking of GLUT4, the key glucose transporter in postprandial glucose uptake in muscle and fat. By focusing on postprandial insulin resistance, we highlighted the mechanisms of action at type 2 diabetes loci that are not adequately captured by studies of fasting glycemic traits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Discovering the role duodenal exclusion plays in weight loss and resolution of type 2 diabetes (T2D) may help refine the surgical and nonsurgical treatment of obesity and T2D. OBJECTIVES To assess changes in glucose homeostasis due to duodenal exclusion using a duodenal-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) in a nonobese canine model. SETTING Academic laboratory setting. METHODS An intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT), and a mixed-meal tolerance test (MMTT) at baseline, 1, and 6 weeks post DJBL implantation (I1 and I6, respectively), and 1 and 6 weeks post DJBL removal (R1 and R6, respectively) were done in canines (n = 7) fed a normal chow diet. RESULTS Placement of the DJBL induced weight loss that was maintained until 4 weeks post removal (R4), despite normal food intake. Total bile acids (TBA) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) during the MMTT were significantly increased at I1 and were associated with increased lactate and free fatty acids. Hypoglycemia counter-regulation was blunted during the IVGTT at I1 and I6, returning to baseline at R1. While there were no changes to insulin sensitivity during the experiment, glucose tolerance was significantly increased following the removal of the DJBL at R1. CONCLUSION These data show that in a normoglycemic, nonobese canine model, duodenal exclusion induces energy intake-independent weight loss and negative metabolic effects that are reversed following re-exposure of the small intestine to nutrients.

Abstract
In the 1950's, Dr. I. Arthur Mirsky first recognized the possible importance of insulin degradation changes to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. While this mechanism was ignored for decades, insulin degradation is now being recognized as a possible factor in diabetes risk. After Mirsky, the relative importance of defects in insulin release and insulin resistance were recognized as risk factors. The hyperbolic relationship between secretion and sensitivity was introduced, as was the relationship between them, as expressed as the disposition index (DI). The DI was shown to be affected by environmental and genetic factors, and it was shown to be differentiated among ethnic groups. However, the importance of differences in insulin degradation (clearance) on the disposition index relationship remains to be clarified. Direct measure of insulin clearance revealed it to be highly variable among even normal individuals, and to be affected by fat feeding and other physiologic factors. Insulin clearance is relatively lower in ethnic groups at high risk for diabetes such as African Americans and Hispanic Americans, compared to European Americans. These differences exist even for young children. Two possible mechanisms have been proposed for the importance of insulin clearance for diabetes risk: in one concept, insulin resistance per se leads to reduced clearance and diabetes risk. In a second and new concept, reduced degradation is a primary factor leading to diabetes risk, such that lower clearance (resulting from genetics or environment) leads to systemic hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, and beta-cell stress. Recent data by Chang and colleagues appear to support this latter hypothesis in Native Americans. The importance of insulin clearance as a risk factor for metabolic disease is becoming recognized and may be treatable.

Abstract
Insulin resistance engenders a compensatory increase in plasma insulin. Inadequate compensation is a primary element in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. The signal that heralds developing insulin resistance and initiates hyperinsulinemic compensation is not known. It has often been assumed to be increased glucose. We tested this assumption by determining whether development of fasting and/or glucose-stimulated hyperinsulinemia with diet-induced insulin resistance occurs because of concomitant elevation of glycemia. Male dogs (n = 58) were fed a hypercaloric, fat-supplemented diet for 6 weeks. Dogs underwent magnetic resonance imaging to quantify total and regional (visceral, subcutaneous) adiposity as well as euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps. A subset of animals also underwent an insulin-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test to assess insulin sensitivity, acute insulin response (AIRg), and glucose effectiveness. Fat feeding caused modest weight gain, increased visceral and subcutaneous fat, and insulin resistance at both peripheral and hepatic levels. Hyperinsulinemic compensation was observed in fasting levels as well as increased AIRg. However, we observed absolutely no increase in carefully measured fasting, evening (6 to 8 pm) or nocturnal glycemia (2 to 4 am). Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia occurred despite no elevation in 24-hour glucose. Compensatory development of hyperinsulinemia during diet-induced insulin resistance occurs without elevated fasting or 24-hour glycemia. These data refute the idea that glucose itself is a requisite signal for β-cell upregulation. Alternative feedback mechanisms need to be identified.

Abstract
Glycemic traits are used to diagnose and monitor type 2 diabetes and cardiometabolic health. To date, most genetic studies of glycemic traits have focused on individuals of European ancestry. Here we aggregated genome-wide association studies comprising up to 281,416 individuals without diabetes (30% non-European ancestry) for whom fasting glucose, 2-h glucose after an oral glucose challenge, glycated hemoglobin and fasting insulin data were available. Trans-ancestry and single-ancestry meta-analyses identified 242 loci (99 novel; P < 5 × 10-8), 80% of which had no significant evidence of between-ancestry heterogeneity. Analyses restricted to individuals of European ancestry with equivalent sample size would have led to 24 fewer new loci. Compared with single-ancestry analyses, equivalent-sized trans-ancestry fine-mapping reduced the number of estimated variants in 99% credible sets by a median of 37.5%. Genomic-feature, gene-expression and gene-set analyses revealed distinct biological signatures for each trait, highlighting different underlying biological pathways. Our results increase our understanding of diabetes pathophysiology by using trans-ancestry studies for improved power and resolution.

Abstract
Marking insulin's centennial, we share stories of researchers and clinicians whose seminal work has advanced our understanding of insulin, islet biology, insulin resistance, and diabetes. The past century of pursuing the "hormone of hormones" and advancing diabetes therapies is replete with stories of collaboration, perseverance, and triumph.

Abstract
Differences between sexes contribute to variation in the levels of fasting glucose and insulin. Epidemiological studies established a higher prevalence of impaired fasting glucose in men and impaired glucose tolerance in women, however, the genetic component underlying this phenomenon is not established. We assess sex-dimorphic (73,089/50,404 women and 67,506/47,806 men) and sex-combined (151,188/105,056 individuals) fasting glucose/fasting insulin genetic effects via genome-wide association study meta-analyses in individuals of European descent without diabetes. Here we report sex dimorphism in allelic effects on fasting insulin at IRS1 and ZNF12 loci, the latter showing higher RNA expression in whole blood in women compared to men. We also observe sex-homogeneous effects on fasting glucose at seven novel loci. Fasting insulin in women shows stronger genetic correlations than in men with waist-to-hip ratio and anorexia nervosa. Furthermore, waist-to-hip ratio is causally related to insulin resistance in women, but not in men. These results position dissection of metabolic and glycemic health sex dimorphism as a steppingstone for understanding differences in genetic effects between women and men in related phenotypes.

Abstract
With the increased prevalence of obesity and related co-morbidities, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D), worldwide, improvements in pharmacological treatments are necessary. The brain- and peripheral-cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) antagonist rimonabant (RIM) has been shown to induce weight loss and improve glucose homeostasis. We have previously demonstrated that RIM promotes adipose tissue beiging and decreased adipocyte cell size, even during maintenance on a high-fat diet. Given the adverse side-effects of brain-penetrance with RIM, in this study we aimed to determine the site of action for a non-brain-penetrating CB1R antagonist AM6545. By using in vitro assays, we demonstrated the direct effects of this non-brain-penetrating CB1R antagonist on cultured adipocytes. Specifically, we showed, for the first time, that AM6545 significantly increases markers of adipose tissue beiging, mitochondrial biogenesis, and lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In addition, the oxygen consumption rate (OCR), consisting of baseline respiratory rate, proton leak, maximal respiratory capacity, and ATP synthase activity, was greater for cells exposed to AM6545, demonstrating greater mitochondrial uncoupling. Using a lipolysis inhibitor during real-time OCR measurements, we determined that the impact of CB1R antagonism on adipocytes is driven by increased lipolysis. Thus, our data suggest the direct role of CB1R antagonism on adipocytes does not require brain penetrance, supporting the importance of focus on peripheral CB1R antagonism pharmacology for reducing the incidence of obesity and T2D.

Abstract
Insulin clearance has recently been highlighted as a fundamental aspect of glucose metabolism, as it has been hypothesized that its impairment could be related to an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. This review focuses on methods used to calculate insulin clearance: from the early surrogate indices employing C-peptide:insulin molar ratio, to direct measurement methods used in animal models, to modeling-based techniques to estimate the components of insulin clearance (hepatic versus extrahepatic). The methods are explored and interpreted by critically highlighting advantages and limitations.

Abstract
Woolcott, Orison O., and Richard N. Bergman. Mortality attributed to COVID-19 in high-altitude populations. High Alt Med Biol. 21:409-416, 2020. Background: Since partial oxygen pressure decreases as altitude increases, environmental hypoxia could worsen Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient's hypoxemia. We compared COVID-19 mortality at different altitudes. Methods: Retrospective analysis of population-level data on COVID-19 deaths was conducted in the United States (1,016 counties) and Mexico (567 municipalities). Mixed-model Poisson regression analysis of the association between altitude and COVID-19 mortality was conducted using individual-level data from 40,168 Mexican subjects with COVID-19, adjusting for multiple covariates. Results: Between January 20 and April 13, 2020, mortality rates were higher in U.S. counties located at ≥2,000 m elevation versus those located <1,500 m (12.3 vs. 3.2 per 100,000; p < 0.001). In Mexico, between March 13 and May 13, 2020, mortality rates were higher in municipalities located at ≥2,000 m versus those located <1,500 m (5.3 vs. 3.9 per 100,000; p < 0.001). Among Mexican subjects younger than 65 years, the risk of death was 36% higher in those living at ≥2,000 m versus those living at <1,500 m (adjusted incidence rate ratio [IRR]: 1.36; confidence interval [95% CI], 1.05-1.78; p = 0.022). Among Mexican men, the risk of death was 31% higher at ≥2,000 m versus that at <1,500 m (adjusted IRR: 1.31; 95% CI, 1.03-1.66; p = 0.025). No association between altitude and COVID-19 mortality was found among Mexican women or among Mexican subjects 65 years of age and older. Conclusions: Altitude is associated with COVID-19 mortality in men younger than 65 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDMirabegron is a β3-adrenergic receptor (β3-AR) agonist approved only for the treatment of overactive bladder. Encouraging preclinical results suggest that β3-AR agonists could also improve obesity-related metabolic disease by increasing brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis, white adipose tissue (WAT) lipolysis, and insulin sensitivity.METHODSWe treated 14 healthy women of diverse ethnicities (27.5 ± 1.1 years of age, BMI of 25.4 ± 1.2 kg/m2) with 100 mg mirabegron (Myrbetriq extended-release tablet, Astellas Pharma) for 4 weeks in an open-label study. The primary endpoint was the change in BAT metabolic activity as measured by [18F]-2-fluoro-d-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT. Secondary endpoints included resting energy expenditure (REE), plasma metabolites, and glucose and insulin metabolism as assessed by a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test.RESULTSChronic mirabegron therapy increased BAT metabolic activity. Whole-body REE was higher, without changes in body weight or composition. Additionally, there were elevations in plasma levels of the beneficial lipoprotein biomarkers HDL and ApoA1, as well as total bile acids. Adiponectin, a WAT-derived hormone that has antidiabetic and antiinflammatory capabilities, increased with acute treatment and was 35% higher upon completion of the study. Finally, an intravenous glucose tolerance test revealed higher insulin sensitivity, glucose effectiveness, and insulin secretion.CONCLUSIONThese findings indicate that human BAT metabolic activity can be increased after chronic pharmacological stimulation with mirabegron and support the investigation of β3-AR agonists as a treatment for metabolic disease.TRIAL REGISTRATIONClinicaltrials.gov NCT03049462.FUNDINGThis work was supported by grants from the Intramural Research Program of the NIDDK, NIH (DK075112, DK075116, DK071013, and DK071014).

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Insufficient sleep is increasingly recognised as a major risk factor for the development of obesity and diabetes, and short-term sleep loss in clinical studies leads to a reduction in insulin sensitivity. Sleep loss-induced metabolic impairments are clinically relevant, since reductions in insulin sensitivity after sleep loss are comparable to insulin sensitivity differences between healthy individuals and those with impaired glucose tolerance. However, the relative effects of sleep loss vs high-fat feeding in the same individual have not been assessed. In addition, to our knowledge no diurnal (active during the daytime) non-human mammalian model of sleep loss-induced metabolic impairment exists, which limits our ability to study links between sleep and metabolism. METHODS This study examined the effects of one night of total sleep deprivation on insulin sensitivity and beta cell function, as assessed by an IVGTT, before and after 9 months of high-fat feeding in a canine model. RESULTS One night of total sleep deprivation in lean dogs impaired insulin sensitivity to a similar degree as a chronic high-fat diet (HFD)(normal sleep: 4.95 ± 0.45 mU-1 l-1 min-1; sleep deprivation: 3.14 ± 0.21 mU-1 l-1 min-1; HFD: 3.74 ± 0.48 mU-1 l-1 min-1; mean ± SEM). Hyperinsulinaemic compensation was induced by the chronic HFD, suggesting adequate beta cell response to high-fat feeding. In contrast, there was no beta cell compensation after one night of sleep deprivation, suggesting that there was metabolic dysregulation with acute sleep loss that, if sustained during chronic sleep loss, could contribute to the risk of type 2 diabetes. After chronic high-fat feeding, acute total sleep deprivation did not cause further impairments in insulin sensitivity (sleep deprivation + chronic HFD: 3.28 mU-1 l-1 min-1). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Our findings provide further evidence that sleep is important for metabolic health and establish a diurnal animal model of metabolic disruption during insufficient sleep.

Abstract
It has long been hoped that our understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetes would be helped by the use of mathematical modeling. In 1979 Richard Bergman and Claudio Cobelli worked together to find a "minimal model" based upon experimental data from Bergman's laboratory. Model was chosen as the simplest representation based upon physiology known at the time. The model itself is two quasi-linear differential equations; one representing insulin kinetics in plasma, and a second representing the effects of insulin and glucose itself on restoration of the glucose after perturbation by intravenous injection. Model would only be sufficient if it included a delay in insulin action; that is, insulin had to enter a remote compartment, which was interstitial fluid (ISF). Insulin suppressed endogenous glucose output (by liver) slowly. Delay proved to be due to initial suppression of lipolysis; resultant lowering of free fatty acids reduced liver glucose output. Modeling also demanded that normalization of glucose after injection included an effect of glucose itself on glucose disposal and endogenous glucose production - these effects were termed "glucose effectiveness." Insulin sensitivity was calculated from fitting the model to intravenous glucose tolerance test data; the resulting insulin sensitivity index, SI, was validated with the glucose clamp method in human subjects. Model allowed us to examine the relationship between insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. Relationship was described by a rectangular hyperbola, such that Insulin Secretion x Insulin Sensitivity = Disposition Index (DI). Latter term represents ability of the pancreatic beta-cells to compensate for insulin resistance due to factors such as obesity, pregnancy, or puberty. DI has a genetic basis, and predicts the onset of Type 2 diabetes. An additional factor was clearance of insulin by the liver. Clearance varies significantly among animal or human populations; using the model, clearance was shown to be lower in African Americans than Whites (adults and children), and may be a factor accounting for greater diabetes prevalence in African Americans. The research outlined in the manuscript emphasizes the powerful approach by which hypothesis testing, experimental studies, and mathematical modeling can work together to explain the pathogenesis of metabolic disease.

Abstract
We evaluated the ability of the Relative Fat Mass (RFM) to estimate whole-body fat percentage among children and adolescents who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 through 2006 (n = 10,390). The RFM equation for adults (64 − (20 × height/waist circumference) + (12 × sex)) may be used for adolescents 15 to 19 years of age. For children and adolescents 8 to 14 years of age, we suggest a modified RFM equation, named as the RFMp (RFM pediatric): 74 − (22 × height/waist circumference) + (5 × sex). In both equations, sex equals 0 for boys and 1 for girls. RFMp was more accurate than BMI to estimate whole-body fat percentage (measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, DXA) among girls (percentage of estimates that were <20% of measured body fat percentage, 88.2% vs. 85.7%; P = 0.027) and boys 8 to 14 years of age (83.4% vs. 71.0%; P < 0.001). RFM was more accurate than BMI among boys 15 to 19 years of age (82.3% vs. 73.9%; P < 0.001) but slightly less accurate among girls (89.0% vs. 92.6%; P = 0.002). Compared with BMI-for-age percentiles, RFMp had lower misclassification error of overweight or obesity (defined as a DXA-measured body fat percentage at the 85th percentile or higher) among boys 8 to 14 years of age (6.5% vs. 7.9%; P = 0.018) but not girls (RFMp: 8.2%; BMI-for-age: 7.9%; P = 0.681). Misclassification error of overweight or obesity was similar for RFM and BMI-for-age percentiles among girls (RFM: 8.0%; BMI-for-age: 6.6%; P = 0.076) and boys 15 to 19 years of age (RFM: 6.9%; BMI-for-age: 7.8%; P = 0.11). RFMp for children and adolescents 8 to 14 years of age and RFM for adolescents 15 to 19 years of age were useful to estimate whole-body fat percentage and diagnose body fat-defined overweight or obesity.

Abstract
Malfunction of the liver is a central factor in metabolic disease. Glucose production by liver is complex and controlled via indirect mechanisms; insulin regulates adipose tissue lipolysis, and free fatty acids in turn regulate liver glucose output. This latter concept is confirmed by studies in L-Akt-Foxo1 knockout mice. The adipocyte is a likely locus of hepatic insulin resistance. Also, kidneys play a role in regulating glucose production; denervated kidneys abrogate the effect of fat feeding to cause insulin resistance. Glucose itself is an important regulator of liver metabolism ("glucose effectiveness"); after entering liver, glucose is phosphorylated and can be exported as lactate. Using the dynamic glucose/lactate relationship, we have been able to estimate glucose effectiveness in intact animals and human subjects. Families have been identified with a glucokinase regulatory protein defect; modeling demonstrates elevated glucokinase activity. Insulin clearance by liver is highly variable among normal individuals, and is under environmental control: high fat diet reduces clearance by 30%. Liver insulin clearance is significantly lower in African American (AA) adults and children compared to European American participants, accounting for fasting hyperinsulinemia in AA. We hypothesize that reduced hepatic insulin clearance causes peripheral insulin resistance and increased Type 2 diabetes in AA.

Abstract
There is wide variance among individuals in the fraction of insulin cleared by the liver (20% to 80%). Hepatic insulin clearance is 67% lower in African Americans than European Americans. Clearance is also lower in African American children 7-13 years of age. Lower hepatic insulin clearance will result in peripheral hyperinsulinemia: this exacerbates insulin resistance, which stresses the β-cells, possibly resulting in their ultimate failure and onset of type 2 diabetes. We hypothesize that lower insulin clearance can be a primary cause of type 2 diabetes in at-risk individuals.

Abstract
CB1 receptor (CB1R) antagonism improves the deleterious effects of a high-fat diet (HFD) by reducing body fat mass and adipocyte cell size. Previous studies demonstrated that the beneficial effects of the CB1R antagonist rimonabant (RIM) in white adipose tissue (WAT) are partially due to an increase of mitochondria numbers and upregulation thermogenesis markers, suggesting an induction of WAT beiging. However, the molecular mechanism by which CB1R antagonism induces weight loss and WAT beiging is unclear. In this study, we probed for genes associated with beiging and explored longitudinal molecular mechanisms by which the beiging process occurs. HFD dogs received either RIM (HFD+RIM) or placebo (PL) (HFD+PL) for 16 wk. Several genes involved in beiging were increased in HFD+RIM compared with pre-fat, HFD, and HFD+PL. We evaluated lipolysis and its regulators including natriuretic peptide (NP) and its receptors (NPRs), β-1 and β-3 adrenergic receptor (β1R, β3R) genes. These genes were increased in WAT depots, accompanied by an increase in lipolysis in HFD+RIM. In addition, RIM decreased markers of inflammation and increased adiponectin receptors in WAT. We observed a small but significant increase in UCP1; therefore, we evaluated the newly discovered UCP1-independent thermogenesis pathway. We confirmed that SERCA2b and RYR2, the two key genes involved in this pathway, were upregulated in the WAT. Our data suggest that the upregulation of NPRs, β-1R and β-3R, lipolysis, and SERCA2b and RYR2 may be one of the mechanisms by which RIM promotes beiging and overall the improvement of metabolic homeostasis induced by RIM.

Abstract
We recently reported that in rodent models of type 2 diabetes (T2D), a single intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) induces remission of hyperglycemia that is sustained for weeks. To clarify the peripheral mechanisms underlying this effect, we used the Zucker diabetic fatty fa/fa rat model of T2D, which, like human T2D, is characterized by progressive deterioration of pancreatic β-cell function after hyperglycemia onset. We report that although icv FGF1 injection delays the onset of β-cell dysfunction in these animals, it has no effect on either glucose-induced insulin secretion or insulin sensitivity. These observations suggest that FGF1 acts in the brain to stimulate insulin-independent glucose clearance. On the basis of our finding that icv FGF1 treatment increases hepatic glucokinase gene expression, we considered the possibility that increased hepatic glucose uptake (HGU) contributes to the insulin-independent glucose-lowering effect of icv FGF1. Consistent with this possibility, we report that icv FGF1 injection increases liver glucokinase activity by approximately twofold. We conclude that sustained remission of hyperglycemia induced by the central action of FGF1 involves both preservation of β-cell function and stimulation of HGU through increased hepatic glucokinase activity.

Abstract
Normal glucose homeostasis depends on the capacity of pancreatic β-cells to adjust insulin secretion in response to a change of tissue insulin sensitivity. In cold environments, for example, the dramatic increase of insulin sensitivity required to ensure a sufficient supply of glucose to thermogenic tissues is offset by a proportionate reduction of insulin secretion, such that overall glucose tolerance is preserved. That these cold-induced changes of insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity are dependent on sympathetic nervous system (SNS) outflow suggests a key role for thermoregulatory neurons in the hypothalamic preoptic area (POA) in this metabolic response. As these POA neurons are themselves sensitive to changes in local hypothalamic temperature, we hypothesized that direct cooling of the POA would elicit the same glucoregulatory responses that we observed during cold exposure. To test this hypothesis, we used a thermode to cool the POA area, and found that as predicted, short-term (8-h) intense POA cooling reduced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), yet glucose tolerance remained unchanged due to an increase of insulin sensitivity. Longer-term (24-h), more moderate POA cooling, however, failed to inhibit GSIS and improved glucose tolerance, an effect associated with hyperthermia and activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, indicative of a stress response. Taken together, these findings suggest that POA cooling is sufficient to recapitulate key glucoregulatory responses to cold exposure.

Abstract
AIMS Adult African American (AA) women have one third of the hepatic insulin clearance of European American (EA) women. This lower hepatic (but not extra-hepatic) insulin clearance in AA individuals is associated with higher plasma insulin concentrations. This study aims to understand whether impairment of hepatic insulin clearance is seen in AA individuals since childhood, possibly suggesting that genetic/epigenetic factors, rather than lifestyle only, contribute to this. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 203 children (105 male and 98 female (55 AA, 88 EA and 60 Hispanic American [HA]; ages, 7-13 years; mean BMI, 19 kg/m2 )) underwent the frequently applied intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGT) at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, General Clinical Research Center and Department of Nutrition Sciences. Glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels were measured and hepatic and extra-hepatic insulin clearances were calculated using mathematical modelling. RESULTS Fractional hepatic insulin extraction (FEL ) was lower in AA than in EA children (mean (SD), 19% (20%) vs 33% (20%); P = 0.0007). Adjusting for age, Tanner stage and body fat, FEL was lower in AA than in EA children (P = 0.0012), and there was a slight sex-related difference (FEL, 24% (10%) vs 29% (10%) in boys vs girls; P = 0.04). Extra-hepatic insulin clearance did not differ with ethnicity (27 (12), 21 (12) and 24 (28) mL/kg/min for AA, HA and EA children, respectively; P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS At a young age, FEL is lower in AAs than in EAs, which does not rule out genetic/epigenetic factors. These differences are related to hyperinsulinaemia and, over time, could possibly contribute to metabolic disorders in AA individuals.

Abstract
Diabetes is often thought of as one of two diseases: Type 1 diabetes (T1D), which is caused by immunological destruction of the beta-cells, and Type 2 diabetes (T2D), which is due to a combination of insulin resistance and relative failure of the beta-cells to compensate for the resistance. It is becoming clear, however, that even within these two definitions there may be considerable heterogeneity (1). There are several approaches to examine heterogeneity of T2D. Among these approaches are the use of biomarkers to categorize the disease, or the examination of variants in the genome. A third approach – the one we have been using in our laboratory – is to identify specific phenotypes which may contribute to failure to regulate the glucose level. We have identified a small group of such phenotypes which can be distinguished and measured using clinical protocols and/or mathematical modeling.

Abstract
Hyperinsulinemia, accompanied by reduced first-pass hepatic insulin extraction (FPE) and increased secretion, is a primary response to insulin resistance. Different in vivo methods are used to estimate the clearance of insulin, which is assumed to reflect FPE. We compared two methodologically different but commonly used indirect estimates with directly measured FPE in healthy dogs ( n = 9). The indirect methods were 1) metabolic clearance rate of insulin (MCR) during the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp (EGC), a steady-state method, and 2) fractional clearance rate of insulin (FCR) during the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGT), a dynamic method. MCR was calculated as the ratio of insulin infusion rate to steady-state plasma insulin. FCR was calculated as the exponential decay rate constant of the injected insulin. Directly measured FPE is based on the difference in insulin measurements during intraportal vs. peripheral vein insulin infusions. We found a strong correlation between indirect FCR (min-1) and FPE (%). In contrast, we observed a poor association between MCR (ml·min-1·kg-1) and FPE (%). Our findings in canines suggest that FCR measured during FSIGT can be used to estimate FPE. However, MCR calculated during EGC appears to be a poor surrogate for FPE.

Abstract
Although the β-cells secrete insulin, the liver, with its first-pass insulin extraction (FPE), regulates the amount of insulin allowed into circulation for action on target tissues. The metabolic clearance rate of insulin, of which FPE is the dominant component, is a major determinant of insulin sensitivity (SI). We studied the intricate relationship among FPE, SI, and fasting insulin. We used a direct method of measuring FPE, the paired portal/peripheral infusion protocol, where insulin is infused stepwise through either the portal vein or a peripheral vein in healthy young dogs (n = 12). FPE is calculated as the difference in clearance rates (slope of infusion rate vs. steady insulin plot) between the paired experiments. Significant correlations were found between FPE and clamp-assessed SI (rs = 0.74), FPE and fasting insulin (rs = -0.64), and SI and fasting insulin (rs = -0.67). We also found a wide variance in FPE (22.4-77.2%; mean ± SD 50.4 ± 19.1) that is reflected in the variability of plasma insulin (48.1 ± 30.9 pmol/L) and SI (9.4 ± 5.8 × 104 dL · kg-1 · min-1 · [pmol/L]-1). FPE could be the nexus of regulation of both plasma insulin and SI.

Abstract
High whole-body fat percentage is independently associated with increased mortality. We aimed to identify a simple anthropometric linear equation that is more accurate than the body mass index (BMI) to estimate whole-body fat percentage among adult individuals. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2004 data (n = 12,581) were used for model development and NHANES 2005–2006 data (n = 3,456) were used for model validation. From the 365 anthropometric indices generated, the final selected equation was as follows: 64 − (20 × height/waist circumference) + (12 × sex), named as the relative fat mass (RFM); sex = 0 for men and 1 for women. In the validation dataset, compared with BMI, RFM better predicted whole-body fat percentage, measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), among women and men. RFM showed better accuracy than the BMI and had fewer false negative cases of body fat-defined obesity among women and men. RFM reduced total obesity misclassification among all women and all men and, overall, among Mexican-Americans, European-Americans and African-Americans. In the population studied, the suggested RFM was more accurate than BMI to estimate whole-body fat percentage among women and men and improved body fat-defined obesity misclassification among American adult individuals of Mexican, European or African ethnicity.

Abstract
CONTEXT Metabolomics provides a biochemical fingerprint that, when coupled with clinical phenotypes, can provide insight into physiological processes. OBJECTIVE Survey metabolites associated with dynamic and basal measures of glucose homeostasis. DESIGN Analysis of 733 plasma metabolites from the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Family Study. SETTING Community based. PARTICIPANTS One thousand one hundred eleven Mexican Americans. MAIN OUTCOME Dynamic measures were obtained from the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test and included insulin sensitivity and acute insulin response to glucose. Basal measures included homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance and β-cell function. RESULTS Insulin sensitivity was associated with 99 metabolites (P < 6.82 × 10-5) explaining 28% of the variance (R2adj) beyond 28% by body mass index. Beyond branched chain amino acids (BCAAs; P = 1.85 × 10-18 to 1.70 × 10-5, R2adj = 8.1%) and phospholipids (P = 3.51 × 10-17 to 3.00 × 10-5, R2adj = 14%), novel signatures of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs; P = 4.49 × 10-23 to 4.14 × 10-7, R2adj = 11%) were observed. Conditional analysis suggested that BCAA and LCFA signatures were independent. LCFAs were not associated with homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (P > 0.024). Acute insulin response to glucose was associated with six metabolites; glucose had the strongest association (P = 5.68 × 10-16). Homeostatic model assessment of β-cell function had significant signatures from the urea cycle (P = 9.64 × 10-14 to 7.27 × 10-6, R2adj = 11%). Novel associations of polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 2.58 × 10-13 to 6.70 × 10-5, R2adj = 10%) and LCFAs (P = 9.06 × 10-15 to 3.93 × 10-7, R2adj = 10%) were observed with glucose effectiveness. Assessment of the hyperbolic relationship between insulin sensitivity and secretion through the disposition index revealed a distinctive signature of polyunsaturated fatty acids (P = 1.55 × 10-12 to 5.81 × 10-6; R2adj = 3.8%) beyond that of its component measures. CONCLUSIONS Metabolomics reveals distinct signatures that differentiate dynamic and basal measures of glucose homeostasis and further identifies new metabolite classes associated with dynamic measures, providing expanded insight into the metabolic basis of insulin resistance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diets high in saturated fat induce obesity and insulin resistance and impair insulin access to skeletal muscle, leading to reduced insulin levels at the muscle cell surface available to bind insulin receptors and induce glucose uptake. In contrast, diets supplemented with polyunsaturated fat improve insulin sensitivity (SI) and reduce the risk for type 2 diabetes. It was hypothesized that a diet high in polyunsaturated fat would preserve SI and insulin access to muscle, as compared with a diet high in saturated fat. METHODS After 12 weeks of control, saturated (LARD), or polyunsaturated (salmon oil [SO]) high-fat diet feeding, muscle SI and insulin access to skeletal muscle were measured by using lymph, a surrogate of skeletal muscle interstitial fluid. RESULTS Both high-fat diets induced similar weight gain, yet only LARD impaired SI. Hyperinsulinemia in the LARD group did not induce an increase in basal interstitial insulin, suggesting reduced insulin access to muscle after LARD, but not after SO. CONCLUSIONS A diet high in polyunsaturated fat does not impair insulin access to muscle interstitium or induce insulin resistance as observed with a saturated fat diet, despite similar weight gain. Future studies should determine whether dietary SO supplementation improves impairments in insulin access to skeletal muscle.

Abstract
To investigate the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) to high resolution, the GoT2D and T2D-GENES consortia catalogued variation from whole-genome sequencing of 2,657 European individuals and exome sequencing of 12,940 individuals of multiple ancestries. Over 27M SNPs, indels, and structural variants were identified, including 99% of low-frequency (minor allele frequency [MAF] 0.1-5%) non-coding variants in the whole-genome sequenced individuals and 99.7% of low-frequency coding variants in the whole-exome sequenced individuals. Each variant was tested for association with T2D in the sequenced individuals, and, to increase power, most were tested in larger numbers of individuals (>80% of low-frequency coding variants in ~82 K Europeans via the exome chip, and ~90% of low-frequency non-coding variants in ~44 K Europeans via genotype imputation). The variants, genotypes, and association statistics from these analyses provide the largest reference to date of human genetic information relevant to T2D, for use in activities such as T2D-focused genotype imputation, functional characterization of variants or genes, and other novel analyses to detect associations between sequence variation and T2D.

Abstract
To characterize type 2 diabetes (T2D)-associated variation across the allele frequency spectrum, we conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association data from 26,676 T2D case and 132,532 control subjects of European ancestry after imputation using the 1000 Genomes multiethnic reference panel. Promising association signals were followed up in additional data sets (of 14,545 or 7,397 T2D case and 38,994 or 71,604 control subjects). We identified 13 novel T2D-associated loci (P < 5 × 10-8), including variants near the GLP2R, GIP, and HLA-DQA1 genes. Our analysis brought the total number of independent T2D associations to 128 distinct signals at 113 loci. Despite substantially increased sample size and more complete coverage of low-frequency variation, all novel associations were driven by common single nucleotide variants. Credible sets of potentially causal variants were generally larger than those based on imputation with earlier reference panels, consistent with resolution of causal signals to common risk haplotypes. Stratification of T2D-associated loci based on T2D-related quantitative trait associations revealed tissue-specific enrichment of regulatory annotations in pancreatic islet enhancers for loci influencing insulin secretion and in adipocytes, monocytes, and hepatocytes for insulin action-associated loci. These findings highlight the predominant role played by common variants of modest effect and the diversity of biological mechanisms influencing T2D pathophysiology.

Abstract
African Americans (AAs) tend to have higher plasma insulin concentrations than European Americans (EAs); the increased insulin concentrations have been attributed to increased secretion and/or decreased insulin clearance by liver or other tissues. This work characterizes the contributions of hepatic versus extrahepatic insulin degradation related to ethnic differences between AAs and EAs. By using a recently developed mathematical model that uses insulin and C-peptide measurements from the insulin-modified, frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGT), we estimated hepatic versus extrahepatic insulin clearance in 29 EA and 18 AA healthy women. During the first 20 min of the FSIGT, plasma insulin was approximately twice as high in AAs as in EAs. In contrast, insulin was similar in AAs and EAs after the 20-25 min intravenous insulin infusion. Hepatic insulin first-pass extraction was two-thirds lower in AAs versus EAs in the overnight-fasted state. In contrast, extrahepatic insulin clearance was not lower in AAs than in EAs. The difference in insulin degradation between AAs and EAs can be attributed totally to liver clearance. The mechanism underlying reduced insulin degradation in AAs remains to be clarified, as does the relative importance of reduced liver clearance to increased risk for type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
The frequent ACE insertion/deletion polymorphism (I/D) is, albeit inconsistently, associated with impaired glucose tolerance and insulin resistance. We recently observed an enhanced upregulation of ACE by elevated fat intake in GG-carriers of the I/D-surrogate rs4343 variant and therefore investigated its potential nutrigenetic role in glucose metabolism. In this nutritional intervention study 46 healthy and non-obese twin pairs consumed recommended low fat diets for 6 weeks before they received a 6-week high fat (HF) diet under isocaloric conditions. Intravenous glucose tolerance tests were performed before and after 1 and 6 weeks of HF diet. While glucose tolerance did not differ between genotypes at baseline it significantly declined in GG-carriers after 6 weeks HF diet (p = 0.001) with higher 2 h glucose and insulin concentrations compared to AA/AG-carriers (p = 0.003 and p = 0.042). Furthermore, the gene-diet interaction was confirmed in the cross-sectional Metabolic Syndrome Berlin Potsdam study (p = 0.012), with the GG-genotypes being significantly associated with prevalent type 2 diabetes for participants with high dietary fat intake ≥37% (GG vs. AA/AG, OR 2.36 [1.02-5.49], p = 0.045). In conclusion, the association between the rs4343 variant and glucose tolerance is modulated by dietary fat intake. The ACE rs4343 variant is a novel nutrient-sensitive type 2 diabetes risk marker potentially applicable for nutrigenetic dietary counseling.

Abstract
Understanding the physiological mechanisms by which common variants predispose to type 2 diabetes requires large studies with detailed measures of insulin secretion and sensitivity. Here we performed the largest genome-wide association study of first-phase insulin secretion, as measured by intravenous glucose tolerance tests, using up to 5,567 individuals without diabetes from 10 studies. We aimed to refine the mechanisms of 178 known associations between common variants and glycemic traits and identify new loci. Thirty type 2 diabetes or fasting glucose-raising alleles were associated with a measure of first-phase insulin secretion at P < 0.05 and provided new evidence, or the strongest evidence yet, that insulin secretion, intrinsic to the islet cells, is a key mechanism underlying the associations at the HNF1A, IGF2BP2, KCNQ1, HNF1B, VPS13C/C2CD4A, FAF1, PTPRD, AP3S2, KCNK16, MAEA, LPP, WFS1, and TMPRSS6 loci. The fasting glucose-raising allele near PDX1, a known key insulin transcription factor, was strongly associated with lower first-phase insulin secretion but has no evidence for an effect on type 2 diabetes risk. The diabetes risk allele at TCF7L2 was associated with a stronger effect on peak insulin response than on C-peptide-based insulin secretion rate, suggesting a possible additional role in hepatic insulin clearance or insulin processing. In summary, our study provides further insight into the mechanisms by which common genetic variation influences type 2 diabetes risk and glycemic traits.

Abstract
On the basis of studies that investigated the intraportal versus systemic insulin infusion and transendothelial transport of insulin, we proposed the "single gateway hypothesis," which supposes an indirect regulation of hepatic glucose production by insulin; the rate-limiting transport of insulin across the adipose tissue capillaries is responsible for the slow suppression of free fatty acids (FFAs), which in turn is responsible for delayed suppression of hepatic endogenous glucose production (EGP) during insulin infusion. Preventing the fall in plasma FFAs during insulin infusion either by administering intralipids or by inhibiting adipose tissue lipolysis led to failure in EGP suppression, thus supporting our hypothesis. More recently, mice lacking hepatic Foxo1 in addition to Akt1 and Akt2 (L-AktFoxo1TKO), all required for insulin signaling, surprisingly showed normal glycemia. Inhibiting the fall of plasma FFAs in these mice prevented the suppression of EGP during a clamp, reaffirming that the site of insulin action to control EGP is extrahepatic. Measuring whole-body turnover rates of glucose and FFAs in L-AktFoxo1TKO mice also confirmed that hepatic EGP was regulated by insulin-mediated control of FFAs. The knockout mouse model in combination with sophisticated molecular techniques confirmed our physiological findings and the single gateway hypothesis.

Abstract
To identify novel coding association signals and facilitate characterization of mechanisms influencing glycemic traits and type 2 diabetes risk, we analyzed 109,215 variants derived from exome array genotyping together with an additional 390,225 variants from exome sequence in up to 39,339 normoglycemic individuals from five ancestry groups. We identified a novel association between the coding variant (p.Pro50Thr) in AKT2 and fasting plasma insulin (FI), a gene in which rare fully penetrant mutations are causal for monogenic glycemic disorders. The low-frequency allele is associated with a 12% increase in FI levels. This variant is present at 1.1% frequency in Finns but virtually absent in individuals from other ancestries. Carriers of the FI-increasing allele had increased 2-h insulin values, decreased insulin sensitivity, and increased risk of type 2 diabetes (odds ratio 1.05). In cellular studies, the AKT2-Thr50 protein exhibited a partial loss of function. We extend the allelic spectrum for coding variants in AKT2 associated with disorders of glucose homeostasis and demonstrate bidirectional effects of variants within the pleckstrin homology domain of AKT2.

Abstract
CONTEXT Premenopausal women have blunted counter-regulatory hormone responses (CRR) to hypoglycemia compared to men. Postmenopausal women have CRR similar to men; the premenopausal pattern can be restored by estrogen. However, glucagon and pancreatic polypeptide (PP) responses remain lower in postmenopausal women than in men. Since hyperandrogenemia contributes to the metabolic phenotype of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), we hypothesize that CRR to hypoglycemia especially of glucagon and PP is exaggerated in premenopausal women with PCOS compared to premenopausal control women. STUDY SUBJECTS AND METHODS Ten obese women with PCOS and 9 control women of similar ethnicity, age and BMI underwent determination of CRR in response to hypoglycemia during 180-min 60mU/m2/min insulin dose hypoglycemic clamp with isotopic assessment of endogenous glucose production (EGP). To assess CRR to hypoglycemia, glucagon, cortisol, growth hormone (GH), epinephrine, norepinephrine, PP, lactate, free fatty acid (FFA), β-hydroxybutyrate, and glycerol levels were sampled at 15-min intervals throughout the clamp. MAIN FINDINGS Incremental glucagon levels were ~3-fold higher during hypoglycemia (P=0.03) in PCOS. Postabsorptive, steady-state and incremental GH, cortisol, epinephrine, norepinephrine, PP, FFA, glycerol and β-hydroxybutyrate did not differ. At target glucose levels of ~52mg/dL, insulin mediated glucose disposal (IMGD) was decreased by ~40% (P=0.02) in PCOS, compared to control women, despite ~20% higher steady-state insulin levels (P=0.03). Neither postabsorptive nor steady-state EGP differed. However, postabsorptive lactate levels were ~50% higher (P=0.02). PCOS status (P=0.04) and IMGD (P=0.02) predicted the differential glucagon response to hypoglycemia in separate regression models, however, neither parameter remained an independent predictor in a combined model. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS Glucagon responses were increased in PCOS, whereas other CRR did not differ. Women with PCOS were insulin resistant under hypoglycemic conditions and higher postabsorptive lactate levels in PCOS were consistent with this finding. Insulin resistance may have contributed to exaggerated glucagon response to hypoglycemia in PCOS.

Abstract
Few genome-wide association studies (GWAS) account for environmental exposures, like smoking, potentially impacting the overall trait variance when investigating the genetic contribution to obesity-related traits. Here, we use GWAS data from 51,080 current smokers and 190,178 nonsmokers (87% European descent) to identify loci influencing BMI and central adiposity, measured as waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio both adjusted for BMI. We identify 23 novel genetic loci, and 9 loci with convincing evidence of gene-smoking interaction (GxSMK) on obesity-related traits. We show consistent direction of effect for all identified loci and significance for 18 novel and for 5 interaction loci in an independent study sample. These loci highlight novel biological functions, including response to oxidative stress, addictive behaviour, and regulatory functions emphasizing the importance of accounting for environment in genetic analyses. Our results suggest that tobacco smoking may alter the genetic susceptibility to overall adiposity and body fat distribution.

Abstract
Dynamic adjustment of insulin secretion to compensate for changes of insulin sensitivity that result from alteration of nutritional or metabolic status is a fundamental aspect of glucose homeostasis. To investigate the role of the brain in this coupling process, we used cold exposure as an experimental paradigm because the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) helps to coordinate the major shifts of tissue glucose utilization needed to ensure that increased thermogenic needs are met. We found that glucose-induced insulin secretion declined by 50% in rats housed at 5°C for 28 h, and yet, glucose tolerance did not change, owing to a doubling of insulin sensitivity. These potent effects on insulin secretion and sensitivity were fully reversed by returning animals to room temperature (22°C) for 4 h or by intravenous infusion of the α-adrenergic receptor antagonist phentolamine for only 30 min. By comparison, insulin clearance was not affected by cold exposure or phentolamine infusion. These findings offer direct evidence of a key role for the brain, acting via the SNS, in the rapid, highly coordinated, and reciprocal changes of insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity that preserve glucose homeostasis in the setting of cold exposure.

Abstract
Physical activity (PA) may modify the genetic effects that give rise to increased risk of obesity. To identify adiposity loci whose effects are modified by PA, we performed genome-wide interaction meta-analyses of BMI and BMI-adjusted waist circumference and waist-hip ratio from up to 200,452 adults of European (n = 180,423) or other ancestry (n = 20,029). We standardized PA by categorizing it into a dichotomous variable where, on average, 23% of participants were categorized as inactive and 77% as physically active. While we replicate the interaction with PA for the strongest known obesity-risk locus in the FTO gene, of which the effect is attenuated by ~30% in physically active individuals compared to inactive individuals, we do not identify additional loci that are sensitive to PA. In additional genome-wide meta-analyses adjusting for PA and interaction with PA, we identify 11 novel adiposity loci, suggesting that accounting for PA or other environmental factors that contribute to variation in adiposity may facilitate gene discovery.

Abstract
Large consortia have revealed hundreds of genetic loci associated with anthropometric traits, one trait at a time. We examined whether genetic variants affect body shape as a composite phenotype that is represented by a combination of anthropometric traits. We developed an approach that calculates averaged PCs (AvPCs) representing body shape derived from six anthropometric traits (body mass index, height, weight, waist and hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio). The first four AvPCs explain >99% of the variability, are heritable, and associate with cardiometabolic outcomes. We performed genome-wide association analyses for each body shape composite phenotype across 65 studies and meta-analysed summary statistics. We identify six novel loci: LEMD2 and CD47 for AvPC1, RPS6KA5/C14orf159 and GANAB for AvPC3, and ARL15 and ANP32 for AvPC4. Our findings highlight the value of using multiple traits to define complex phenotypes for discovery, which are not captured by single-trait analyses, and may shed light onto new pathways.

Abstract
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) constitutes a putative mechanism of obesity-induced insulin resistance. Thus, we hypothesized that inhibiting the SNS by using renal denervation (RDN) will improve insulin sensitivity (SI) in a nonhypertensive obese canine model. SI was measured using euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp (EGC), before (week 0 [w0]) and after 6 weeks of high-fat diet (w6-HFD) feeding and after either RDN (HFD + RDN) or sham surgery (HFD + sham). As expected, HFD induced insulin resistance in the liver (sham 2.5 ± 0.6 vs. 0.7 ± 0.6 × 10-4 dL ⋅ kg-1 ⋅ min-1 ⋅ pmol/L-1 at w0 vs. w6-HFD [P < 0.05], respectively; HFD + RDN 1.6 ± 0.3 vs. 0.5 ± 0.3 × 10-4 dL ⋅ kg-1 ⋅ min-1 ⋅ pmol/L-1 at w0 vs. w6-HFD [P < 0.001], respectively). In sham animals, this insulin resistance persisted, yet RDN completely normalized hepatic SI in HFD-fed animals (1.8 ± 0.3 × 10-4 dL ⋅ kg-1 ⋅ min-1 ⋅ pmol/L-1 at HFD + RDN [P < 0.001] vs. w6-HFD, [P not significant] vs. w0) by reducing hepatic gluconeogenic genes, including G6Pase, PEPCK, and FOXO1. The data suggest that RDN downregulated hepatic gluconeogenesis primarily by upregulating liver X receptor α through the natriuretic peptide pathway. In conclusion, bilateral RDN completely normalizes hepatic SI in obese canines. These preclinical data implicate a novel mechanistic role for the renal nerves in the regulation of insulin action specifically at the level of the liver and show that the renal nerves constitute a new therapeutic target to counteract insulin resistance.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have found few common variants that influence fasting measures of insulin sensitivity. We hypothesized that a GWAS of an integrated assessment of fasting and dynamic measures of insulin sensitivity would detect novel common variants. We performed a GWAS of the modified Stumvoll Insulin Sensitivity Index (ISI) within the Meta-Analyses of Glucose and Insulin-Related Traits Consortium. Discovery for genetic association was performed in 16,753 individuals, and replication was attempted for the 23 most significant novel loci in 13,354 independent individuals. Association with ISI was tested in models adjusted for age, sex, and BMI and in a model analyzing the combined influence of the genotype effect adjusted for BMI and the interaction effect between the genotype and BMI on ISI (model 3). In model 3, three variants reached genome-wide significance: rs13422522 (NYAP2; P = 8.87 × 10(-11)), rs12454712 (BCL2; P = 2.7 × 10(-8)), and rs10506418 (FAM19A2; P = 1.9 × 10(-8)). The association at NYAP2 was eliminated by conditioning on the known IRS1 insulin sensitivity locus; the BCL2 and FAM19A2 associations were independent of known cardiometabolic loci. In conclusion, we identified two novel loci and replicated known variants associated with insulin sensitivity. Further studies are needed to clarify the causal variant and function at the BCL2 and FAM19A2 loci.
