Alpha-ketoglutarate mitigates insulin resistance and metabolic inflexibility in a mouse model of Ataxia-Telangiectasia


ABSTRACT: The maintenance of metabolic homeostasis relies on the ability to flexibly transit between catabolic and anabolic states in response to insulin signaling. Insulin-activated ATM is a critical mediator of this process, facilitating the swift transition between catabolic-and-anabolic fates of glucose by regulating the functional status of PKM2 and HIF1α. In Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T), these mechanisms are disrupted, resulting in intrinsic insulin resistance and glucose intolerance. Consequently, cells exhibit a compensatory dependence on glutamine as an alternative metabolite for energy metabolism. Cerebellar degeneration, a hallmark of A-T, is characterized by the pronounced vulnerability of Purkinje cells, attributed to their unexpected sensitivity to insulin. Supplementation with α-ketoglutarate, the α-keto acid backbone of glutamine, has demonstrated potentials in alleviating glutamine dependence and attenuating Purkinje cell degeneration. These findings suggest that peripheral metabolic deficiencies may contribute to sustained neurodegenerative changes in A-T, underscoring the importance of screening, monitoring and addressing these metabolic disruptions in patients.
