Long-chain, monounsaturated fatty acids (FAs) stimulate secretion of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) from the intestinal L cell. Because the atypical protein kinase C (PKC), PKC{zeta}, is involved in FA signaling in many cells, the role of PKC{zeta} in FA-induced GLP-1 secretion was investigated, using the murine GLUTag L cell line and primary rat intestinal L cells. GLUTag cells expressed mRNA for several PKC isoforms, including PKC{zeta}, and PKC{zeta} protein was localized throughout the cytoplasm in GLUTag and primary L cells as well as normal mouse and rat L cells. Treatment with oleic acid (150–1000 µM) for 2 h increased GLP-1 secretion (P < 0.001), and this was abrogated by the PKC{zeta} inhibitor ZI (P < 0.05) and PKC{zeta} small interfering RNA transfection (P < 0.05) but not inhibition of classical/novel PKC isoforms. Although most PKC{zeta} was localized in the particulate compartment of GLUTag cells, oleate treatment did not alter PKC{zeta} levels or activity in this cell fraction. GLUTag cells expressed mRNA for the Gq-coupled FA receptor GPR120; however, oleic acid did not induce any changes in Akt, MAPK, or calcium, and pretreatment with LY294002 and PD98059 to inhibit phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and MAPK, respectively, did not prevent the effects of oleic acid. Finally, GLUTag cells also released GLP-1 in response to arachidonic acid (P < 0.001) but were not affected by other long-chain FAs. These findings demonstrate that PKC{zeta} is required for oleic acid-induced GLP-1 secretion. This enzyme may therefore serve as a therapeutic target to enhance GLP-1 release in type 2 diabetes.
