Circulating insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGF BP) activity is increased in animals with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Separation of BPs by SDS/PAGE for ligand and immunoblot analysis revealed that a 32,000 molecular weight BP is present and increased in diabetic serum. This BP is immunologically distinct from the low molecular weight fetal rat BP (rBP2) and is related to the human amniotic fluid BP (hBP1) that is increased in patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

Insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I receptors from fetal and adult rat skeletal muscle were compared in order to gain insight into the evolving functions of the hormones during development. Basal, insulin-stimulated, and IGF I-stimulated receptor phosphorylation and tyrosine kinase activity are severalfold higher in partially purified receptor preparations from fetal muscle in comparison with equal numbers of receptors from adult muscle. There are distinct insulin and IGF I receptors with Mr 95,000 beta subunits in adult muscle, as evidenced by hormone dose-response curves, immunoprecipitation with specific antibodies, binding to insulin and IGF I affinity columns, and analysis of tryptic phosphopeptides. In addition to these two receptor species, fetal muscle contains a receptor with a Mr 105,000 beta subunit. The fetal receptor is structurally more closely related to the IGF-I receptor than the insulin receptor on the basis of its precipitation with specific antibodies, binding to an IGF I affinity column, and tryptic phosphopeptide map. The fetal receptor does not appear to bind insulin but, unlike the IGF-I receptor, its phosphorylation is stimulated by low physiological concentrations of both insulin and IGF I. This could be explained by the cross-phosphorylation of fetal receptors by activated insulin receptors. Expression of the fetal receptor is highest in the fetus and decreases markedly during the first 2 weeks of postnatal life. The fetal receptor appears to account for the high tyrosine kinase activity of fetal muscle and may be an important mediator of responses to both insulin and IGF I early in development. 相似文献

The insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF 1R) mediates the acute metabolic effects of IGF I as well as IGF I-stimulated cell proliferation and protection from apoptosis. IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) can modulate these responses. We, therefore, investigated whether intrinsic IGFBPs interfere with IGF I-induced regulation of IGF 1R expression and with the biological response to IGF I in two human tumor cell lines, the non-small-cell lung cancer cell line A549 and the osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell line Saos-2/B-10. We compared the growth rates, IGFBP production, IGF I binding characteristics, IGF 1R protein and mRNA levels, and the acute IGF I response (stimulation of glycogen synthesis) after pretreatment of the cells in serum-free medium with or without added IGF I or medium supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum (FCS). In contrast to A549 cells, which produce IGF I and significant amounts of IGFBPs, survival and proliferation of Saos-2/B-10 cells, which do not produce IGF I or significant amounts of IGFBPs, depended on the addition of exogenous IGF I. IGF I increased the concentration of IGFBP-2 and -3 and decreased the concentration of IGFBP-4 in the medium of A549 cells. As compared to FCS, IGF I pretreatment in both cell lines decreased the number of specific IGF I binding sites, down-regulated total and membrane IGF 1R protein, and largely reduced or abolished the acute IGF I response without affecting IGF 1R mRNA levels. The data suggest that the IGF 1R protein of the two cell lines is translationally and/or posttranslationally down-regulated by its ligand in the presence and in the absence of locally produced IGFBPs and that the cell lines have retained this negative feedback to counteract IGF I stimulation. 相似文献

Paracrinology of growth regulation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Embryonic and fetal growth is dependent on genetic factors and epigenetic factors such as peptide growth factors. We describe here the interactions of several peptide growth factors during the growth and function of two cell types, growth plate chondrocytes from the ovine fetus and astroglial cells from the newborn rat cerebral cortex. Isolated chondrocytes released two endogenous growth factors, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factor II (IGF II). Although the latter was released in greater abundance, as detected by radioimmunoassay, exogenous bFGF was more than a thousand fold more active as a mitogen. Insulin was also able to increase chondrocyte replication at physiological concentrations, and bFGF, insulin and IGFs were additive in their effects on DNA and protein synthesis. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta), which is abundant in bone, had little effect on chondrocyte DNA or total protein synthesis alone, but blocked the stimulatory actions of insulin and IGFs on these parameters. However, TGF beta when alone or in combination caused an increase in the collagen: non collagenous protein ratio of new proteins synthesized by chondrocytes. Adult rat brain is a rich source of IGF II, and both IGF I and II are present during neurogenesis and gliagenesis in the fetal and neonatal rat respectively. We have cultured astroglial cells isolated from neonatal rat cerebral cortex to examine the production and interaction of peptide growth factors during their growth. Isolated astroglial cells contained mRNAs encoding both IGF I and II but abundance was not regulated by other hormones or growth factors. Using affinity cross-linking we found that cultured cells also released two species of IGF binding protein (IGF-BP) of 33 kDa and 38 kDa. Northern blot analysis using homologous cDNA probes showed that astroglial cells expressed IGF-BP2 and BP3, but little BP1. Both IGF I and II were mitogenic for astroglial cells, as was insulin at physiologic concentrations. Exogenous IGF-BP2 was able to modulate the mitogenic actions of exogenous IGF I. These two very different cell models show many similarities of endogenous growth control. Both release IGFs and IGF-BPs which regulate mitogenic rate. In addition, in both insulin functions as a growth factor at physiologic concentrations. These findings suggest common principles governing embryonic and fetal growth and development. Studies have shown that fetal and neonatal growth is independent of regulation by classic hormones (e.g. growth hormones) synthesized by the mother or the fetus. It is believed that embryonic and fetal growth is controlled by two major mechanisms, namely, (i) the genetic factors as determined by the embryonic and fetal genome, and (ii) the epigenetic and environmental factors that alter the expression of the embryonic or fetal genome.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are well known as peptide mitogens and important growth factors in fetal as well as in early postnatal development. In particular, IGF II is strongly expressed during fetal life and in neonatal animals. Very little is known about the regulation of IGF II gene expression. In order to study in detail the regulation of IGF II mRNA levels in the liver by the potent nonaromatizable androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT), we have used quantitative in situ hybridization to detect the mRNA encoding for this growth factor. Pups were separated into 4 groups and injected twice a day immediately after birth with 3 different doses of DHT: 0.1 mg DHT/day, 0.25 mg DHT/day, 0.5 mg DHT/day for 4 and 7 days, and the control groups were injected with the vehicle alone. Animals were perfused with 4% paraformaldehyde and sections from the liver, heart, kidneys and brain were cut with a cryostat. A [35S]-labeled cDNA probe was used to detect IGF II mRNA levels. After hybridization, sections were autoradiographed with X-ray films and then coated with liquid photographic emulsion. Densitometric measurement revealed that, at 4 days of age, IGF II mRNA levels were lower in DHT-treated rats than in control animals. No statistically significant differences in IGF II mRNA levels were observed among the three groups treated with the different doses of DHT, thus revealing that even the lowest dose of DHT (0.1 mg/day) used was sufficient to inhibit IGF II gene expression in neonatal rats. Moreover, at 7 days of age, DHT-treated rats showed the same levels of IGF II mRNA as those observed in rats treated with DHT for 4 days. These results suggest that DHT may play an important role in the regulation of IGF II gene expression in the rat liver during the neonatal period. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to find out whether GH or insulin regulate the mRNA expression of the fetal binding protein of insulin-like growth factor (IGFBP-2). Primary hepatocytes from adult rats were used as a test system. IGFBP-2 mRNA was abundant in cells cultured in the absence of hormones and markedly reduced in cultures containing insulin. Addition of GH had no effect on IGFBP-2 mRNA levels although the cells are responsive to GH as demonstrated by a GH mediated elevation of IGF l mRNA levels. Half-maximal down-regulation of IGFBP-2 mRNA levels occurred at an insulin concentration of 1 to 2 x 10(-10) M. The finding that insulin is a potent negative regulator of hepatic IGFBP-2 mRNA levels suggests a physiologically important regulatory link between the two hormones insulin and IGF l. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is produced mainly in the liver and it induces beneficial effects on the nutritional status, the liver function and oxidative hepatic damage in cirrhotic rats. The aim of this work was to analyze the effect of IGF-I on mechanisms of fibrogenesis in cirrhotic rats. Liver cirrhosis was induced by CCl(4) inhalation and phenobarbital in Wistar rats. Ten days after stopping CCl(4) administration (day 0), rats received either IGF-I (2 microg/100 g bw/day) (CI+IGF) or saline (CI) subcutaneously during 14 days. Animals were sacrificed on day 15. As control groups were used: healthy rats (CO) and healthy rats treated with IGF-I (CO+IGF). Liver histopathology, hydroxyproline content, prolyl hydroxylase activity, collagen I and III mRNA expression and the evolution of transformed Ito cells into myofibroblasts were assessed. Among the two control groups (CO+IGF), no differences were found in hydroxyproline content and these levels were lower than those found in the two cirrhotic groups. Compared with untreated cirrhotic rats, the CI+IGF-I animals showed a significant reduction in hydroxyproline content, prolyl hydroxylase activity and collagen alpha 1(I) and alpha1(III) mRNA expression. A higher number of transformed Ito cells (alpha-actin +) was observed in untreated cirrhotic animals as compared to CO and CI+IGF groups. In summary, treatment with IGF-I reduced all of the studied parameters of fibrogenesis. In conclusion, low doses of IGF-I induce in vivo an antifibrogenic effect in cirrhotic rats. 相似文献

The RNA-binding protein IGF2BP1 (IGF-II mRNA binding protein 1) stabilizes the c-myc RNA by associating with the Coding Region instability Determinant (CRD). If and how other proteins cooperate with IGF2BP1 in promoting stabilization of the c-myc mRNA via the CRD remained elusive. Here, we identify various RNA-binding proteins that associate with IGF2BP1 in an RNA-dependent fashion. Four of these proteins (HNRNPU, SYNCRIP, YBX1, and DHX9) were essential to ensure stabilization of the c-myc mRNA via the CRD. These factors associate with IGF2BP1 in a CRD-dependent manner, co-distribute with IGF2BP1 in non-polysomal fractions comprising c-myc mRNA, and colocalize with IGF2BP1 in the cytoplasm. A selective shift of relative c-myc mRNA levels to the polysomal fraction is observed upon IGF2BP1 knockdown. These findings suggest that IGF2BP1 in complex with at least four proteins promotes CRD-mediated mRNA stabilization. Complex formation at the CRD presumably limits the transfer of c-myc mRNA to the polysomal fraction and subsequent translation-coupled decay. 相似文献

Intensively treating type I diabetics with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusions or multiple daily insulin injections to normalize mean blood glucose concentrations significantly reduces the onset of secondary diabetic complications when compared to conventionally treated diabetics. Our studies focused on characterizing hepatic enzyme expression in intensively and conventionally treated diabetic rats. Alloxan-induced diabetic rats were conventionally treated with insulin injected twice daily or intensively treated with similar daily dosages of insulin administered via a surgically implanted osmotic pump. Our results demonstrate a significant difference in hepatic enzyme expression when these treatment regimes are compared. In conventionally treated diabetic rats, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) protein and mRNA levels remained slightly elevated when compared to normal animals, glycogen phosphorylase (GP) protein levels were still slightly decreased, and glycogen synthase (GS) protein and mRNA levels remained at the elevated levels observed in untreated diabetics. In contrast, the protein and mRNA levels of all three enzymes were normalized in the insulin pump-treated animals. These results suggest that intensive insulin therapy improves glycemia directly by normalizing hepatic gene expression while conventional insulin therapy normalizes plasma glucose concentrations indirectly. 相似文献

MicroRNA-494 suppresses cell proliferation and induces senescence in A549 lung cancer cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Objectives: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small functional RNAs that regulate mRNAs for degradation or translational suppression. In the present study, we aimed to reveal functional importance of miRNA‐494 (miR‐494) in A549 human lung cancer cells. Materials and methods: We established A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. Next, we sought to investigate insulin‐like growth factor 2 mRNA‐binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) mRNA as an miR‐494 target. For this, we constructed a reporter plasmid bearing potential miR‐494 binding sequences derived from the 3′‐untranslated region (3′‐UTR) of IGF2BP1 mRNA in the 3′‐UTR of the luciferase gene. Results: Through comparison between miR‐494 expressing cells and control cells, we revealed that miR‐494 suppressed cell proliferation and colony forming activity, and induced senescence. Reporter activity was inhibited by miR‐494. In addition, IGF2BP1 mRNA levels were down‐regulated in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. IGF2BP1 has been shown to bind and suppress IGF2 mRNA, and this could be a reason why IGF2BP1 can regulate cell function. Therefore, we analysed IGF2 mRNA levels and revealed that IGF2 was up‐regulated in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494. Finally, elevated IGF2 mRNA levels in A549 cells that constitutively expressed miR‐494 were suppressed to basal level by an miR‐494 inhibitor. Conclusions: Taken together, IGF2BP1 and its downstream target IGF2 could be a crucial axis for miR‐494 in regulation of the destiny of A549 cells. 相似文献

The oncofetal RNA-binding protein IGF2BP1 (IGF2 mRNA binding protein 1) controls the cytoplasmic fate of specific target mRNAs including ACTB and CD44. During neural development, IGF2BPs promote neurite protrusion and the migration of neuronal crest cells. In tumor-derived cells, IGF2BP1 enhances the formation of lamellipodia and invadopodia. Accordingly, the de novo synthesis of IGF2BP1 observed in primary malignancies was reported to correlate with increased metastasis and an overall poor prognosis. However, if and how the protein enhances metastasis remains controversial. In recent studies, we reveal that IGF2BP1 promotes the directed migration of tumor-derived cells in vitro by controlling the expression of MAPK4 and PTEN. The IGF2BP1-facilitated inhibition of MAPK4 mRNA translation interferes with MK5-directed phosphorylation of the heat shock protein 27 (HSP27). This limits G-actin sequestering by phosphorylated HSP27, enhances cell adhesion and elevates the velocity of tumor cell migration. Concomitantly, IGF2BP1 promotes the expression of PTEN by interfering with PTEN mRNA turnover. This results in a shift of cellular PtdIns(3,4,5)P3/PtdIns(4,5)P2 ratios and enhances RAC1-dependent cell polarization which finally promotes the directionality of tumor cell migration. These findings identify IGF2BP1 as a potent oncogenic factor that regulates the adhesion, migration and invasiveness of tumor cells by modulating intracellular signaling. 相似文献

To study the effect of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on glucose and insulin homeostasis, healthy rats were dosed with 160 mg x kg (-1) x day(-1) of HCQ orally, and streptozocin-induced diabetic rats received 80, 120, and 160 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) of HCQ, while controls received normal saline. Ten days after treatment with HCQ, healthy animals were challenged intravenously with insulin or glucose, while diabetic rats were given only an i.v. injection of insulin. In healthy rats, the areas within and under the glucose concentration - time curve following insulin and glucose challenge were estimated. In diabetic animals, the areas under the curve for both the percent change in serum glucose from baseline (AUG) and the percent change in serum insulin from baseline (AUI) were used as pharmacodynamic end points. In healthy rats, HCQ did not influence fasting serum glucose concentrations or glycemic profiles following i.v. administration of glucose or insulin. In diabetic rats, AUG and AUI were increased dependent on blood HCQ concentrations. The normal homeostatic mechanisms responsible for insulin-glucose regulation may compensate for possible HCQ-induced reduction of insulin metabolism in healthy rats. The HCQ dose- or concentration-effect relationships for glucose and insulin were linear over the range of HCQ concentrations tested. It is concluded that HCQ significantly elevated insulin blood concentration resulting in reduced glucose levels in a concentration-dependent fashion in diabetic rats. HCQ may have therapeutic potential in the treatment of type I and type II diabetes. 相似文献

Monolayer cultures of chick embryo hepatocytes were used to compare the effects of insulin-like growth factors, IGF I and IGF II, with insulin on two hepatic functions: plasma protein production and glycogen deposition. Just as with exposure of the cells to insulin, addition of either IGF I or IGF II to the otherwise hormone-free medium elicited a dramatic change in the production of secretory proteins as well as the development of glycogen deposits equivalent to in vivo (fed) levels. No major differences between insulin, IGF I or IGF II were observed in terms of the degree of stimulation or potency of the hormones. 相似文献

Metastasis contributes to treatment failure in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Our study aimed at elucidating the role of insulin‐like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3) in NPC metastasis and the underlying mechanism involved. IGF2BP3 expression in NPC was determined by bioinformatics, quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry analyses. The biological function of IGF2BP3 was investigated by using in vitro and in vivo studies. In this study, IGF2BP3 mRNA and protein levels were elevated in NPC tissues. In addition, IGF2BP3 exerted an oncogenic role by promoting epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT), thereby inducing NPC cell migration and invasion. Further studies revealed that IGF2BP3 regulated the expression of key regulators of EMT by activating AKT/mTOR signalling, thus stimulating NPC cell migration and invasion. Remarkably, targeting IGF2BP3 delayed NPC metastasis through attenuating p‐AKT and vimentin expression and inducing E‐cadherin expression in vivo. Moreover, IGF2BP3 protein levels positively correlated with distant metastasis after initial treatment. Importantly, IGF2BP3 expression served as an independent prognostic factor in predicting the overall survival and distant metastasis‐free survival of NPC patients. This work identifies IGF2BP3 as a novel prognostic marker and a new target for NPC treatment. 相似文献
