| HEP_23194_sm_SupFig1.tif | 907K | Supporting Figure 1. A, Relative luciferase activity in H4IIE hepatocytes infected with an adenovirus lacking all PEPCK 5′-flanking regions. Cells were treated with forskolin (FSK, 10 μM) and/or dexamethasone (DEX, 10 nM) as indicated for 24 h before harvesting the cells (means ± SEM, n=9). B, Blood glucose levels of C57Bl6 mice infected with adenoviruses carrying distinct PEPCK promoter luciferase fragments at day 5 after injection as indicated. Mice were either fasted for 12 h or fasted for 12 h and refed for 6 h (means ± SEM, n=9). C, Serum levels of interferon (Ifn)γ, interleukin (IL)1β, IL6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α in C57Bl6 mice treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 20 μg/g body weight) for 8 h (means ± SEM, n=9). D, Serum total ketone body levels in same animals as in C (means ± SEM, n=9). *, p < 0.05. | |

A-D, Quantitative PCR analysis of hepatic PEPCK mRNA (left panels) and blood glucose (right panels) levels in C57Bl6 mice infected with adenoviruses carrying 1330 (A), 490 (B-D) or 355 (D) bp of wild-type PEPCK promoter luciferase fragments or 490 bp PEPCK promoter fragments harboring point mutations within the PEPCK GRE (B) or CRE (C) at day 5 after injection. Mice were fasted overnight and injected with LPS (20 μg/g body weight) for 8 h (means ± SEM, n=9). *, p ≤ 0.05. | |
| HEP_23194_sm_SupFig3.tif | 218K | Supporting Figure 3. A, Transient transfection assay of H4IIE hepatocytes transfected with luciferase reporter constructs carrying 1000 bp of the PGC-1α 5′-flanking region (PGC1αLuc) or 3 copies of an isolated nuclear factor κ B (NFκB)/RelA/p65 response element (3xNFκB). Cells were treated with LPS-conditioned macrophage medium (RAW) for 24 h as indicated (means ± SEM, n=9). *, p ≤ 0.05. |
