Both insulin signaling defects in the liver and obesity contribute to insulin resistance and cause diabetes in Irs2-/- mice
-cell hyperplasia. In this study we introduced the IRS-2 gene specifically into the liver of Irs2-/- mice with adenovirus vectors. Glucose tolerance tests revealed that the IRS-2 restoration in the liver ameliorated the hyperglycemia, but the improvement in hyperinsulinemia was only partial. Endogenous glucose production (EGP) and glucose utilization (Rd) were measured during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies: EGP was increased two-fold in the Irs2-/- mice, while Rd decreased by 50%. Restoration of IRS-2 in the liver suppressed EGP to a level similar to that in wild-type mice, but Rd remained decreased in the adeno-IRS-2-infected Irs2-/- mice. Irs2-/- mice also exhibit obesity and hyperleptinemia associated with impairment of hypothalamic PI 3-kinase activation. Continuous intracerebroventricular (ICV) leptin infusion or caloric restriction yielded Irs2-/- mice whose adiposity was comparable to that of Irs2+/+ mice, and both the hyperglycemia and the hyperinsulinemia of these mice improved with increased Rd, albeit partially. Finally, combination treatment consisting of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of IRS-2 and continuous ICV leptin infusion completely reversed the hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia in Irs2-/- mice. EGP and Rd also became normal in these mice as well as in mice treated by caloric restriction plus adenoviral gene-transfer. We therefore concluded that a combination of increased EGP due to insulin signaling defects in the liver and reduced Rd due to obesity accounts for the systemic insulin resistance in Irs2-/- mice.
