Researchers have long known that insulin resistance is associated with multiple organ insulin receptor defects, including the liver.
Â
Recently, researchers from Yale University in the United States have screened more than 600 genes encoding proteins using large-scale RNA interference. They found that the gene encoding MARCH1 impairs the insulin signaling pathway by promoting degradation of the cell surface insulin receptor. MARCH1 is increased in expression in obese individuals, and the researchers believe that this molecule may be a potential target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
Â
The relevant research results are published in the international academic journal Nature Communication.
Â
It is well known that insulin resistance is a key driver of type 2 diabetes, and insulin receptor signaling defects are an important feature. Although down-regulation of insulin receptors on the cell surface is a known contributor to insulin resistance, scientists are still unclear about the molecular mechanisms involved.
Â
In this study, the researchers found that the E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCH1 blocks insulin action by promoting cell surface insulin receptor degradation. Through a wide range of RNA interference screening, they found that MARCH1 is a negative regulator of the insulin receptor pathway. Inactivation of MARCH1 gene enhances insulin sensitivity in the liver of mice, whereas overexpression of MARCH1 reduces hepatic insulin sensitivity.
Â
MARCH1 down-regulates cell surface insulin receptor levels by promoting ubiquitination of the insulin receptor, but unlike other insulin receptor ubiquitin ligases, MARCH1 can function under basal conditions, rather than after insulin signal activation. MARCH1 can therefore help set the basal level of insulin signaling. In addition, the researchers also found higher expression of MARCH1 in white adipose tissue of obese individuals.
Â
Currently, type 2 diabetes is becoming more and more popular worldwide. This study suggests that MARCH1 can promote the pathological process of type 2 diabetes and may be a potential therapeutic target.
