Abstract: Hepatic insulin resistance is associated with increased collagen. Integrin α1β1 is a collagen binding receptor expressed on hepatocytes. Here we show that expression of the α1 subunit is increased in hepatocytes isolated from high fat fed (HF-fed) mice. To determine whether the integrin α1 subunit protects against impairments in hepatic glucose metabolism, we analyzed glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in HF-fed integrin α1-null (itgα1-/-) and wild-type littermates (itgα1+/+). Using the insulin clamp, we found that insulin-stimulated hepatic glucose production was suppressed by ~50% in HF-fed itgα1+/+ mice. In contrast, it was not suppressed in HF-fed itgα1-/- mice indicating severe hepatic insulin resistance. This was associated with decreased hepatic insulin signaling in HF-fed itgα1-/- mice. Interestingly, hepatic triglyceride and diglyceride content were normalized to chow-fed levels in HF-fed itgα1-/- mice. This indicates that hepatic steatosis is dissociated from insulin resistance in HF-fed itgα1-/- mice. The decrease in hepatic lipid accumulation in HF-fed itgα1-/- mice was associated with altered free fatty acid metabolism. These studies establish a role for integrin signaling in facilitating hepatic insulin action, while promoting lipid accumulation in mice challenged with a HF diet.
