| Objective:(1)To observe the effects of high intensity interval training on glucose homeostasis of T2DM mice.(2)To identify the expression of lncRNAs in improving insulin resistance in T2DM mice by transcriptome sequencing and preliminarily study the possible mechanism of the lncRNA which involved in the regulation of improving insulin resistance by HIIT.(3)The function of the lncRNAs was studied in vitro and further determine its mechanismMethods:Part OneEffect of high intensity interval training on glucose homeostasis in type 2 diabetic mice.Six-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal diet group(CON group)and high-fat diet group(HFD group).HFD group mice were fed with a high-fat diet for 12 weeks and injected with STZ to induce type 2 diabetic mice Then fasting blood glucose(FBG),glucose tolerance(IPGTT)and insulin tolerance(ITT)were detected,and the mice with a fasting blood glucose concentration>13.8 mmol/l were considered diabetic mice.Then the T2DM mice were randomly assigned to two groups:a T2DM group without exercise(T2DM-SED,n=11)and a T2DM group with high-intensity interval training(T2DM-HIIT group,n=11).All mice in the T2DM-HIIT group performed the exercise training program on a mouse treadmill at 25° inclination five times a week for 8 weeks,the mice in the T2DM-HIIT group started with a warm-up at 5 m/min for 10min,in which the HIIT consisted of 10 rounds of 4 min of high-intensity treadmill running interspersed with 2min of complete rest.The pace during the HIIT increased gradually from 16 to 26 m/min over 8 weeks.The fasting blood glucose,glucose tolerance,insulin tolerance and body composition were measured at the end of the exercise.Then killed the mice and collected the blood and quadriceps.The levels of TC,TG,HHDL-C,LDL-C and serum insulin(FINS)were detected.Pathological sections were made to observe the content of lipid and glycogen in skeletal muscle.QRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of glucose metabolism-related indicators(m-glut4,GS),lipid metabolism-related indicators(HMGCR,SCD1,CD36,CPT-1α),and mitochondrial biosynthesis and dynamics related indicators(mtDNA、PGC-1α、MFN2、FIS1、DRP1).Part TwoEffects of high intensity interval training on the expression of lncRNA and their downstream pathways in skeletal muscle of T2DM mice.Total RNA was extracted from the quadriceps of mice,and lncRNAs transcriptomics of quadriceps in T2DM-SED and T2DM-HIIT mice were sequenced by high-throughput sequencing technology.The data was analyzed by edger in R studio and Edger.The fold change≥2.0 with p<0.05 and an FPKM value≥ 0.1 in at least one sample from a group indicated differentially expressed lncRNAs.The expression of differentially expressed lncRNAs was verified by qRT-PCR and identified the key lncRNA and its target gene to be studied.The mRNA and protein expression levels of the target genes were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.Part ThreeRole and mechanism of lncRNA H19/miR-181a-5p axis in glucose and lipid metabolism of C2C12 cells.(1)The myotube cells were randomly divided into the CON group and PA group.The PA group was treated with 500μM palmitic acid,while the CON group was treated with 20%BSA for 16 hours.(2)Myotube cells were randomly divided into two groups and transfected with si-NC and si-H19 or empty plasmid vector and H19 overexpression plasmid or NC and miR-181a-5 mimic or inhibitor-NC and miR-181a-5p-inhibitor respectively.After 6 hours,the medium was changed.(3)The myotube cells were randomly divided into four groups and transfected with si-NC+inhibitor-NC,si-NC+inhibitor,si-H19+inhibitor-NC and si-H19+inhibitor respectively.The medium was changed after 6 hours transfected.The supernatant and cells were collected,and the cells were stained with Oil Red O and PAS,QRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of H19,miR-181a-5p,PPARα,glycolipid metabolism-related indicators and mitochondrial biosynthesis and dynamics related indicators.Results:Part One1.Establishment of the T2DM mice.The FBG,ipgtt and ITT were damaged in T2DM group(p<0.01)after high fat diet and STZ
