Integration of multi-omics results.
(A) Insulin resistance, fatty acid oxidation disorders, long-chain fatty acid s (LCFAs) accumulation, and inflammation occurred in spontaneous type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) macaques. (B) Incomplete mitochondrial LCFAs β oxidation. The expression levels of fatty acid metabolism-related genes HADHB and ACSM3 were downregulated in spontaneous T2DM macaques, which could lead to accumulation of acylcarnitine, including l-propionylcarnitine, hexanoyl-l-carnitine, (r)-butyrylcarnitine, and isovaleryl-l-carnitine. (C) Gut inflammation. The decrease of Lactobacillus sp. likely caused the reduction of serotonin and indole-3-acetaldehyde, which promotes the expansion of palmitic acid (PA) producer Erysipelotrichacea and ultimately led to PA accumulation. Both Erysipelotrichacea and Ruminococcus gnavus (current name: Mediterraneibacter gnavus) promote the development of inflammation. Accumulation of PA and inflammation are important factors in the development of T2DM. (D) Accumulation of PA promoted the development of insulin resistance. In the PA-mTORC1-Akt pathway, the changes of RAP1A, SESTRIN3, and IRS1 expression promoted the development of insulin resistance in spontaneous T2DM macaques. The increase in PA promoted the development of T2DM by up-regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.
