From the Resistance to the stimulatory effects of insulin
on glucose utilization is a key feature of type 2 diabetes, obesity,
and the metabolic syndrome. Recent studies suggest that insulin
resistance is primarily caused by a defect in glucose transport. GLUT4
is the main insulin-responsive glucose transporter and is expressed predominantly in muscle and adipose tissues. Whereas GLUT4 has been
shown to play a critical role in maintaining systemic glucose homeostasis, the mechanisms regulating its expression are incompletely understood. We have cloned the murine homologue of KLF15, a member of
the Krüppel-like family of transcription factors. KLF15 is highly
expressed in adipocytes and myocytes in vivo and is induced when 3T3-L1 preadipocytes are differentiated into adipocytes. Overexpression of KLF15 in adipose and muscle cell lines potently induces GLUT4 expression. This effect is specific to KLF15 as overexpression of two other Krüppel-like factors,
KLF2/LKLF and KLF4/GKLF, did not induce GLUT4 expression. Both basal
(3.3-fold, p < 0.001) and insulin-stimulated
(2.4-fold, p < 0.00001) glucose uptake are increased
in KLF15-overexpressing adipocytes. In co-transfection assays, KLF15
and MEF2A, a known activator of GLUT4, synergistically activates the
GLUT4 promoter. Promoter deletion and mutational analyses provide
evidence that this activity requires an intact KLF15-binding site
proximal to the MEF2A site. Finally, co-immunoprecipitation assays show
that KLF15 specifically interacts with MEF2A. These studies indicate
that KLF15 is an important regulator of GLUT4 in both adipose and
muscle tissues.
