Abstract
Both high glucose intake with a high-fat meal and inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) have been associated with plasma lipid-lowering effects, but mechanistic understanding linking glucose and fat absorption is lacking. We here hypothesized that glucose ameliorates intestinal fatty acid uptake via a pathway involving DPP4. A concentration of 50 mM glucose reduced mean DPP4 activity in differentiated Caco-2 enterocytes by 42.5 % and fatty acid uptake by 66.0 % via nutrient sensing by the sweet taste receptor subunit TAS1R3 and glucose transporter GLUT-2. No effect of the DPP4 substrates GLP-1 and GIP or of the cellular energy status on the reduced uptake of fatty acids was seen, but a direct interaction between DPP4 and fatty acid transporters is suggested. Conclusively we identified DPP4 as a regulator of fatty acid absorption in Caco-2 enterocytes that mediates the inhibition of intestinal fatty acid uptake by glucose via an interplay of GLUT-2 and TAS1R3.
