Fasted fish were first treated with a single intraperitoneal injection of rapamycin or vehicle and then submitted to a second intraperitoneal administration of glucose 4 h later. Our results revealed that intraperitoneal administration of glucose induced hyperglycemia for both vehicle and rapamycin treatments, which peaked at 2 h. Plasma glucose level in vehicle-treated fish was significantly higher than in rapamycin-treated fish at 8 and 17 h, whereas it remained at the basal level in rapamycin-treated fish. Glucose administration significantly enhanced the phosphorylation of Akt and ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K1) in vehicle-treated fish, while rapamycin completely abolished the activation of S6K1 in rapamycin-treated fish, without inhibiting the phosphorylation of Akt on Thr-308 or Ser-473. Despite the lack of significant variation in phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase mRNA abundance, mRNA abundance for glucokinase (GK), glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) I and II, and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) was reduced by rapamycin 17 h after glucose administration. The inhibition effect of rapamycin on GK and FBPase was further substantiated at the activity level. The suppression of GK gene expression and activity by rapamycin provided the first in vivo evidence in fish that glucose regulates hepatic GK gene expression and activity through a TORC1-dependent manner. Unlike in mammals, we observed that acute rapamycin treatment improved glucose tolerance through the inhibition of hepatic gluconeogenesis in rainbow trout. target of rapamycin rapamycin gluconeogenesis glucokinase glucose homeostasis rainbow trout Copyright © 2014 the American Physiological Society View Full Text Previous Next Back to top Table of Contents Back Matter (PDF) Ed Board (PDF) Keywords target of rapamycin Rapamycin gluconeogenesis glucokinase glucose homeostasis rainbow trout Article Abstract MATERIALS AND METHODS RESULTS DISCUSSION GRANTS DISCLOSURES AUTHOR CONTRIBUTIONS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS REFERENCES Figures & Data Info PDF Alert me when this article is cited Alert me if a correction is posted Email Thank you for your interest in spreading the word on Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology.
