Differential effects of high-fat diet and exercise training on bone and energy metabolism
2018
Abstract Bone
microarchitectureand strength are impaired by obesity and physical inactivity, but the underlying molecular regulation of bone metabolism in response to these factors is not well understood. Therefore, we analyzed bone and energy metabolism in male mice fed a high-fat or standard chow diet for 12 weeks with or without free access to running wheels. High-fat diet (HFD) mimicked the
human conditionof obesity and insulin resistance, including symptoms such as elevated serum glucose and insulin levels and reduced insulin-stimulated
glucose uptakeinto muscle and adipose tissue. Interestingly, HFD also decreased (−44%)
glucose uptakeinto
bone marrow. Bone mass was reduced (−45%) by HFD due to a diminished (−45%)
bone remodelingrate. Bone matrix quality aspects, such as biomechanical stability, were additionally decreased. Concurrently, the
bone marrowadiposity increased (+63%) in response to a HFD. Further, we detected elevated expression of the Wnt signaling inhibitor dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1, +42%) in mice fed a HFD, but this was not reflected in serum samples obtained from obese humans. In mice, exercise attenuated the adverse effects of HFD by reversing the
glucose uptakeinto
bone marrow, improving the bone mass and bone matrix quality while decreasing the
bone marrowadiposity. This data shows that exercise prevents some, but not all of the negative effects of HFD on
bone healthand suggests that insulin signaling in
bone marrowand Dkk-1 signaling may be involved in the pathogenesis of bone loss induced by HFD.
