Objective: We investigated whether intestinal lipoprotein overproduction in a fructose-fed, insulin resistant hamster model is prevented with insulin sensitization.
Methods: Syrian Golden hamsters were fed either chow (CHOW), 60% fructose for 5 weeks (FRUC), CHOW for 5 weeks with the insulin sensitizer rosiglitazone (RSG) added for the last 3 weeks (CHOW+RSG) or 60% fructose plus rosiglitazone (FRUC+RSG).
Results: In vivo triton studies showed a 2 to 3-fold increase in large (Sf >400) and smaller (Sf 100-400) triglyceride rich lipoprotein (TRL) particle apoB48 but not triglyceride secretion with fructose feeding in the fasted state (P < 0.01), and partial normalization with rosiglitazone in fructose fed hamsters. Ex vivo pulse-chase labeling of enterocytes confirmed the oversecretion of apoB48 lipoproteins with fructose feeding. Intestinal lipoprotein oversecretion was associated with increased expression of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) expression. With rosiglitazone treatment of fructose fed hamsters, there was a
50% reduction in apoB48 secretion from primary cultured enterocytes and amelioration of the elevated MTP mass and activity in fructose fed hamsters. In contrast, in the postprandial state the major differences between nutritional and drug intervention protocols were evident in TRL triglyceride and not apo B48 secretion rates.
Conclusions: The data suggest that intestinal lipoprotein overproduction can be prevented with the insulin sensitizer rosiglitazone.
