Time and dose selective glucose metabolism for glucose homeostasis and energy conversion in the liver.

ABSTRACT: Hepatic glucose metabolism serves dual purposes: maintaining glucose homeostasis and converting glucose into energy sources; however, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We quantitatively measured liver metabolites, gene expression, and phosphorylated insulin signaling molecules in mice orally administered varying doses of glucose, and constructed a transomic network. Rapid phosphorylation of insulin signaling molecules in response to glucose intake was observed, in contrast to the more gradual changes in gene expression. Glycolytic and gluconeogenic metabolites and expression of genes involved in glucose metabolism including glucose-6-phosphate, G6pc, and Pck1, demonstrated high glucose dose sensitivity. Whereas, glucokinase expression and glycogen accumulation showed low glucose dose
