Dimethyloxalylglycine (DMOG) is a representative inhibitor of the prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD), which mediates the degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1-alpha (HIF1A). DMOG exerts its pharmacological effects via the canonical pathway that involves PHD inhibition; however, it remains unclear whether DMOG affects lipogenic gene expression in hepatocytes. We aimed to elucidate the effects of DMOG on sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP1c), a master regulator of fatty acid synthesis in hepatocytes. DMOG treatment inhibited SREBP1c mRNA and protein expression in HepG2 and AML12 hepatocytes and reduced the transcript levels of SREBP1c-regulated lipogenic genes. A luciferase reporter assay revealed that DMOG inhibited the transcriptional activity of SREBP1c. Moreover, DMOG suppressed SREBP1c expression in mice liver. Mechanistically, treatment with DMOG enhanced the expression of HIF1A and insulin-induced gene 2 (INSIG2), which inhibits the activation of SREBP1c. However, HIF1A or INSIG2 knockdown failed to reverse the inhibitory effect of DMOG on SREBP1c expression, suggesting a redundant role of HIF1A and INSIG2 in terms of repressing SREBP1c. DMOG did not function through the canonical pathway involving inhibition of SREBP1c by PHD, highlighting the presence of non-canonical pathways that mediate its anti-lipogenic effect.
