Vitamin B2 enables PPARa regulation of fasting glucose availability


ABSTRACT: Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) mediates oxidation-reduction reactions required for cellular energy demands. Fatty acid oxidation (FAO) disorders caused by flavoprotein mutations and FAD depletion disrupt energy balance and glucose production during fasting. These FAO disorders are difficult to manage clinically, and their biochemical pathogenesis is poorly understood. Here, we identify a mechanistic connection between FAD levels and hepatic glucose production. Depleting the FAD pool in mice with a vitamin B2 deficient diet (B2D) resulted in phenotypes associated with organic acidemia phenotypes, including reduced body weight and whole-body fat oxidation rates coupled with hypoglycemia. Integrated discovery approaches revealed that B2D broadly tempered fasting activation of target genes for the nuclear receptor PPARa, including those required for gluconeogenesis. Consistent with this, Ppara knockout depleted liver FAD levels and worsened B2D hepatic glucose production. Treatment with the PPARa agonist fenofibrate overcame B2D phenotypes and rescued glucose availability and fatty liver signatures through activation of the integrated stress response and refilling anaplerotic amino acid substrates for glucose production. We conclude that PPARa governs metabolic responses to FAD availability and suggest pharmacologic activation as a strategy for treating disorders of riboflavin and FAD deficiency.
