| Abstract: | Fodrin or nonerythroid spectrin is an abundant component of the cortical cytoskeletal network in rat adipocytes. Fodrin has a highly punctate distribution in resting cells, and insulin causes a dramatic remodeling of fodrin to a more diffuse pattern. Insulin-mediated remodeling of actin occurs to a lesser extent than does that of fodrin. We show that fodrin interacts with the t-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) syntaxin 4, and this interaction is increased by insulin stimulation and decreased by prior latrunculin A treatment. Latrunculin A disrupts all actin filaments, inhibits glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation, and causes fodrin to partially redistribute from the plasma membrane to the cytosol. In contrast, cytochalasin D disrupts only the short actin filament signal, and cytochalasin D neither inhibits GLUT4 translocation nor fodrin redistribution in adipocytes. Together, our data suggest that insulin induces remodeling of the fodrin-actin network, which is required for the fusion of GLUT4 storage vesicles with the plasma membrane by permitting their access to the t-SNARE syntaxin 4. |
