Abstract Apolipoprotein AIV (ApoAIV) and cholecystokinin (CCK) are well-known satiating
signals that are stimulated by fat consumption. Peripheral ApoAIV and CCK
interact to prolong satiating signals. In the present study, we hypothesized
that ApoAIV and CCK control energy homeostasis in response to high-fat diet
feeding. To test this hypothesis, energy homeostasis in ApoAIV and CCK double
knockout (ApoAIV/CCK-KO), ApoAIV knockout (ApoAIV-KO), and CCK knockout (CCK-KO)
mice were monitored. When animals were maintained on a low-fat diet,
ApoAIV/CCK-KO, ApoAIV-KO, and CCK-KO mice had comparable energy intake and
expenditure, body weight, fat mass, fat absorption, and plasma parameters
relative to the controls. In contrast, these KO mice exhibited impaired lipid
transport to epididymal fat pads in response to intraduodenal infusion of
dietary lipids. Furthermore, ApoAIV-KO mice had upregulated levels of CCK
receptor 2 (CCK2R) in the small intestine while ApoAIV/CCK-KO mice had
upregulated levels of CCK2R in the brown adipose tissue. After 20 wk of a
high-fat diet, ApoAIV-KO and CCK-KO mice had comparable body weight and fat
mass, as well as lower energy expenditure at some time points. However,
ApoAIV/CCK-KO mice exhibited reduced body weight and adiposity relative to
wild-type mice, despite having normal food intake. Furthermore, ApoAIV/CCK-KO
mice displayed normal fat absorption and locomotor activity, as well as enhanced
energy expenditure. These observations suggest that mice lacking ApoAIV and CCK
have reduced body weight and adiposity, possibly due to impaired lipid transport
and elevated energy expenditure.
