What is Fibroblast growth factor 19 alleviates palmitic acid-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress via the AMPK/PGC-1α pathway in skeletal muscle about?

Obesity-induced fat ectopic deposition results in mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in skeletal muscle, which could impair the quality and function of the skeletal muscle. Human fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) acts as a vital metabolic regulator of bile acid synthesis and metabolic homeostasis. Recent studies have shown that FGF19 regulates skeletal muscle mass through the enlargement of muscle fiber size and protects muscles from atrophy. However, the role of FGF19 in regulating mitochondrial function and the antioxidant response in skeletal muscle remains unknown. Therefore, we investigated the effect of FGF19 on palmitic acid (PA)-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in C2C12 cells. In this study, we found that FGF19 can increase the mRNA and protein expression levels of mitochondrial biogenesis regulators (PGC-1α, Nrf-1, and TFAM) and antioxidant response regulators (Nrf-2 and HO-1), alleviating PA-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. However, the regulatory effect of FGF19 was blocked by Compound C, an AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor, and siRNA knockdown of PGC-1a. Taken together, these findings indicate that
