Introduction: Omentin (intelectin-1) is an adipokine produced by the stromal vascular fraction of visceral adipose tissue and has been positively associated with insulin sensitivity. The underlying mechanism of action, however, is largely unknown. It has been described that omentin may increase insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake of adipocytes, but effects on other insulin-sensitive tissues such as skeletal muscle are unexplored. We therefore investigated effects of omentin on insulin sensitivity and metabolism of primary human myotubes. Methods: Primary human myotubes were treated with 0.5 or 2 µg/mL omentin and subsequently protein detection, glucose uptake assay, lactate assay, and lipidomics analysis were performed. Results: Omentin did not affect skeletal muscle insulin signaling, as assessed by basal and insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of IRS1 and AKT. Omentin increased basal, but not insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. While increased glycolytic activity was confirmed by elevated lactate release after omentin treatment, effects on cellular lipid composition were limited to an increase in total triacylglycerol concentration. Increased glucose uptake by omentin was counteracted by addition of extracellular lactotransferrin, which can bind to omentin. Conclusions: Overall, increased basal glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells suggests differential effects of omentin on insulin-sensitive tissues. Moreover, an involvement of lactotransferrin in omentin’s mechanism of action may partially explain contradictory results of epidemiological studies on the role of omentin in different diseases.
