- The inhibitor incidence in nonsevere hemophilia A patients with certain F8 mutations approaches the inhibitor incidence in severe patients. These findings are highly relevant for clinical practice, as they facilitate identification of high-risk patients based on F8 genotype.

- The tissue-specific role of mitochondrial respiratory capacity in the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes is unclear. We determined mitochondrial function in glycolytic and oxidative skeletal muscle and liver from lean (+/ ?) and obese diabetic ( db/db) mice. In lean mice, the mitochondrial respiration pattern differed between tissues. Tissue-specific mitochondrial profiles were then compared between lean and db/db mice. In liver, mitochondrial respiratory capacity and protein expression, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), was decreased in db/db mice, consistent with increased mitochondrial fission. In glycolytic muscle, mitochondrial respiration, as well as protein and mRNA expression of mitochondrial markers, was increased in db/db mice, suggesting increased mitochondrial content and fatty acid oxidation capacity. In oxidative muscle, mitochondrial complex I function and PGC-1α and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) protein levels were decreased in db/db mice, along with increased level of proteins related to mitochondrial dynamics. In conclusion, mitochondrial respiratory performance is under the control of tissue-specific mechanisms and is not uniformly altered in response to obesity. Furthermore, insulin resistance in glycolytic skeletal muscle can be maintained by a mechanism independent of mitochondrial dysfunction. Conversely, insulin resistance in liver and oxidative skeletal muscle from db/db mice is coincident with mitochondrial dysfunction.

- AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a heterotrimeric complex, composed of a catalytic subunit (α) and two regulatory subunits (β and γ), which act as a metabolic sensor to regulate glucose and lipid metabolism. A mutation in the γ3 subunit (AMPKγ3R225Q) increases basal AMPK phosphorylation, while concomitantly reducing sensitivity to AMP. AMPKγ3R225Q (γ3R225Q) transgenic mice are protected against dietary-induced triglyceride accumulation and insulin resistance. We determined whether skeletal muscle–specific expression of AMPKγ3R225Q prevents metabolic abnormalities in leptin-deficient ob/ob (ob/ob-γ3R225Q) mice. Glycogen content was increased, triglyceride content was decreased, and diacylglycerol and ceramide content were unaltered in gastrocnemius muscle from ob/ob-γ3R225Q mice, whereas glucose tolerance was unaltered. Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in extensor digitorum longus muscle during the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp was increased in lean γ3R225Q mice, but not in ob/ob-γ3R225Q mice. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase phosphorylation was increased in gastrocnemius muscle from γ3R225Q mutant mice independent of adiposity. Glycogen and triglyceride content were decreased after leptin treatment (5 days) in ob/ob mice, but not in ob/ob-γ3R225Q mice. In conclusion, metabolic improvements arising from muscle-specific expression of AMPKγ3R225Q are insufficient to ameliorate insulin resistance and obesity in leptin-deficient mice. Central defects due to leptin deficiency may override any metabolic benefit conferred by peripheral overexpression of the AMPKγ3R225Q mutation.
