Through a positional cloning approach, the thioredoxin interacting protein gene (Txnip) was recently identified as causal for a form of combined hyperlipidemia in mice(1). We now show that Txnip deficient mice in the fed state exhibit an altered response to nutrition, including elevated levels of plasma ketone bodies and free fatty acids, decreased glucose, and increased hepatic expression of PPAR-

Thioredoxin interacting protein (Txnip) deficiency disrupts the fasting-feeding metabolic transition
Coactivator-1
(PGC-1
), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), and acyl CoA oxidase (AOX). Dramatic differences in the expression of key metabolic enzymes were also observed in other tissues, and the fat to muscle ratio of Txnip deficient mice was increased by about 40%. We demonstrate an effect of Txnip on the redox status, as the Txnip deficient mice in the fed state had a significant increase in the ratio of NADH:NAD+. Surprisingly, we observed that Txnip deficient mice and wild-type mice had similar levels of thioredoxin activity, suggesting that the effects of Txnip deficiency may be mediated in part by other interactions. These results indicate a role for Txnip in the metabolic response to feeding and the maintenance of the redox status.
