The role of sugar beet pulp (SBP) in T2D and the mechanism of its action remain unclear, though it is abundant in phenolics and has antioxidant activity. In this study, we isolated and purified ferulic acid from SBP, referred to as SBP-E, and studied the underlying molecular mechanisms in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism developing high glucose/high fat diet-induced diabetic models <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em>. SBP-E showed no cytotoxicity and reduced the oxidative stress by increasing glutathione (GSH) in human liver (HepG2) and rat skeletal muscle (L6) cells. It also decreased body weight gain, food intake, fasting blood glucose levels (FBGL), glucose intolerance, hepatic steatosis, and lipid accumulation. Additionally, SBP-E decreased the oxidative stress and improved the antioxidant enzyme levels in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced T2D mice. Further, SBP-E reduced plasma and liver advanced glycation end products (AGEs), malondialdehyde (MDA), and pro-inflammatory cytokines, and increased anti-inflammatory cytokines in HFD-fed mice. Importantly, SBP-E significantly elevated AMPK, glucose transporter, SIRT1 activity, and Nrf2 expression and decreased ACC activity and SREBP1 levels in diabetic models. Collectively, our study results suggest that SBP-E treatment can improve obesity-induced T2D by regulating glucose and lipid metabolism via SIRT1/AMPK signalling and the AMPK/SREBP1/ACC1 pathway.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8815,"journal":{"name":"Biochimica et biophysica acta.

Therefore, high-fat diet (HFD) and palmitic acid were used to establish lipid accumulation models in mice and HepG2 cells, respectively. Results showed that PlsEtn can reduce lipid deposition both <em>in vivo</em> and <em>in vitro</em>. HFD stimulation abnormally activated lipophagy through the phosphorylation of the AMPK/ULK1 pathway. The lipophagy flux monitor revealed abnormalities in the fusion stage of lipophagy. Of note, only PlsEtn stimulated the dynamic remodeling of the autophagosome membrane, which was indicated by the significantly decreased LC3 II/I ratio and p62 level. In all experiments, the effect of PlsEtn was significantly higher than that of PakCho. These findings elucidated the mechanism of PlsEtn in alleviating lipid accumulation, showed that it might be a lipophagy enhancer, and provided new insights into the high-value utilization of sea cucumber as an agricultural resource.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8815,"journal":{"name":"Biochimica et biophysica acta.
