TL;DR: Results suggest a mechanism whereby HFD downregulates genes necessary for OXPHOS and mitochondrial biogenesis and, if sustained, may result in mitochondrial dysfunction in the prediabetic/insulin-resistant state.

Abstract: Obesity and type 2 diabetes have been associated with a high-fat diet (HFD) and reduced mitochondrial mass and function. We hypothesized a HFD may affect expression of genes involved in mitochondrial function and biogenesis. To test this hypothesis, we fed 10 insulin-sensitive males an isoenergetic HFD for 3 days with muscle biopsies before and after intervention. Oligonucleotide microarray analysis revealed 297 genes were differentially regulated by the HFD (Bonferonni adjusted P < 0.001). Six genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) decreased. Four were members of mitochondrial complex I: NDUFB3, NDUFB5, NDUFS1, and NDUFV1; one was SDHB in complex II and a mitochondrial carrier protein SLC25A12. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC1) alpha and PGC1beta mRNA were decreased by -20%, P < 0.01, and -25%, P < 0.01, respectively. In a separate experiment, we fed C57Bl/6J mice a HFD for 3 weeks and found that the same OXPHOS and PGC1 mRNAs were downregulated by approximately 90%, cytochrome C and PGC1alpha protein by approximately 40%. Combined, these results suggest a mechanism whereby HFD downregulates genes necessary for OXPHOS and mitochondrial biogenesis. These changes mimic those observed in diabetes and insulin resistance and, if sustained, may result in mitochondrial dysfunction in the prediabetic/insulin-resistant state.

Exogenous Mitochondrial Transfer and IL-6: Modulating Adipocyte Metabolism in Obesity-associated Dysregulation

TL;DR: Exogenous mitochondrial transfer modulates adipocyte metabolism in obesity-associated dysregulation by increasing energy expenditure, reducing lipid content, and elevating IL-6 levels.
Diet, energy metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis.
TL;DR: States of insulin resistance are characterized by defects in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, however, can be partially normalized by caloric restriction by modulating mitochondrial mass in an insulin sensitizing manner.

TL;DR: An analytical strategy is introduced, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, designed to detect modest but coordinate changes in the expression of groups of functionally related genes, which identifies a set of genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation whose expression is coordinately decreased in human diabetic muscle.
Absolute quantification of mRNA using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays.
TL;DR: The technical aspects involved are discussed, conventional and kinetic RT-PCR methods for quantitating gene expression are contrasted, and the usefulness of these assays are illustrated by demonstrating the significantly different levels of transcription between individuals of the housekeeping gene family, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-dehydrogenase (GAPDH).

TL;DR: PGC-1, a cold-inducible coactivator of nuclear receptors, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration in muscle cells through an induction of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP-2) and through regulation of the nuclear respiratory factors (NRFs).

Dysfunction of Mitochondria in Human Skeletal Muscle in Type 2 Diabetes
TL;DR: It is concluded that there is an impaired bioenergetic capacity of skeletal muscle mitochondria in type 2 diabetes, with some impairment also present in obesity.

Impaired mitochondrial activity in the insulin-resistant offspring of patients with type 2 diabetes.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of insulin-resistant offspring of patients with type 2 diabetes is associated with dysregulation of intramyocellular fatty acid metabolism is supported, possibly because of an inherited defect in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
