Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase is required for insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4 to the surface of muscle and fat cells. Recent evidence suggests that the full stimulation of glucose uptake by insulin also requires activation of GLUT4, possibly via a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK)-dependent pathway. Here we used L6 myotubes expressing Myc-tagged GLUT4 to examine at what level the signals regulating GLUT4 translocation and activation bifurcate. We compared the sensitivity of each process, as well as of signals leading to GLUT4 translocation (Akt and atypical protein kinase C) to PI 3-kinase inhibition. Wortmannin inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake with an IC(50) of 3 nm. In contrast, GLUT4myc appearance at the cell surface was less sensitive to inhibition (IC(50) = 43 nm). This dissociation between insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and GLUT4myc translocation was not observed with LY294002 (IC(50) = 8 and 10 microm, respectively). The sensitivity of insulin-stimulated activation of PKC zeta/lambda, Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3 to wortmannin (IC(50) = 24, 30, 35, and 60 nm, respectively) correlated closely with inhibition of GLUT4 translocation. In contrast, insulin-dependent p38 MAPK phosphorylation was efficiently reduced in cells pretreated with wortmannin, with an IC(50) of 7 nm. Insulin-dependent p38 alpha and p38 beta MAPK activities were also markedly reduced by wortmannin (IC(50) = 6 and 2 nm, respectively). LY294002 or transient expression of a dominant inhibitory PI 3-kinase construct (Delta p85), however, did not affect p38 MAPK phosphorylation. These results uncover a striking correlation between PI 3-kinase, Akt, PKC zeta/lambda, and GLUT4 translocation on one hand and their segregation from glucose uptake and p38 MAPK activation on the other, based on their wortmannin sensitivity. We propose that a distinct, high affinity target of wortmannin, other than PI 3-kinase, may be necessary for activation of p38 MAPK and GLUT4 in response to insulin.  相似文献

Insulin acutely stimulated glucose uptake in rat primary brown adipocytes in a PI3-kinase-dependent but p70S6-kinase-independent manner. Since Akt represents an intermediate step between these kinases, this study investigated the contribution of Akt to insulin-induced glucose uptake by the use of a chemical compound, ML-9, as well as by transfection with a dominant-negative form of Akt (DeltaAkt). Pretreatment with ML-9 for 10 min completely inhibited insulin stimulation of (1) Akt kinase activity, (2) Akt phosphorylation on the regulatory residue Ser473 but not on Thr308, and (3) mobility shift in Akt1 and Akt2. However, ML-9 did not affect insulin-stimulated PI3-kinase nor PKCzeta activities. In consequence, ML-9 precluded insulin stimulation of glucose uptake and GLUT4 translocation to plasma membrane (determined by Western blot), without any effect on the basal glucose uptake. Moreover, DeltaAkt impaired insulin stimulation of glucose uptake and GFP-tagged GLUT4 translocation to plasma membrane in transiently transfected immortalised brown adipocytes and HeLa cells, respectively. Furthermore, ML-9 treatment for 6 h down-regulated insulin-induced GLUT4 mRNA accumulation, without affecting GLUT1 expression, in a similar fashion as LY294002. Indeed, co-transfection of brown adipocytes with DeltaAkt precluded the transactivation of GLUT4-CAT promoter by insulin in a similar fashion as a dominant-negative form of PI3-kinase. Our results indicate that activation of Akt may be an essential requirement for insulin regulation of glucose uptake and GLUT4 gene expression in brown adipocytes.  相似文献

The current studies investigated the contribution of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) isoforms to insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation. Experiments involving the microinjection of antibodies specific for the p110 catalytic subunit of class I PI3-kinases demonstrated an absolute requirement for this form of the enzyme in GLUT4 translocation. This finding was confirmed by the demonstration that the PI3-kinase antagonist wortmannin inhibits GLUT4 and insulin-responsive aminopeptidase translocation with a dose response identical to that required to inhibit another class I PI3-kinase-dependent event, activation of pp70 S6-kinase. Interestingly, wortmannin inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake at much lower doses, suggesting the existence of a second, higher affinity target of the drug. Subsequent removal of wortmannin from the media shifted this dose-response curve to one resembling that for GLUT4 translocation and pp70 S6-kinase. This is consistent with the lower affinity target being p110, which is irreversibly inhibited by wortmannin. Wortmannin did not reduce glucose uptake in cells stably expressing Myr-Akt, which constitutively induced GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane; this demonstrates that wortmannin does not inhibit the transporters directly. In addition to elucidating a second wortmannin-sensitive pathway in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, these studies suggest that the presence of GLUT4 on the plasma membrane is not sufficient for activation of glucose uptake.  相似文献

We identified 1-(5 chloronaphthalenesulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1, 4-diazepine, also known as ML-9, as a powerful inhibitor of PKB activity in different cells as well as of recombinant PKB. It also inhibits other downstream serine/threonine kinases, such as PKA and p90 S6 kinase, but not upstream tyrosine phosphorylation or PI3-kinase activation in response to insulin. We compared the effects of ML-9 and wortmannin on several insulin-stimulated effects in isolated rat fat cells. Both ML-9 and wortmannin inhibited glucose transport and GLUT4/IGF II receptor translocation to the plasma membrane. In contrast, only wortmannin inhibited the antilipolytic effect and PDE3B activation by insulin. Thus, ML-9 inhibits PKB but not PI3-kinase activation in response to insulin and is useful to differentiate between these effects. Both PI3-kinase and PKB are important for glucose transport and intracellular protein translocation while PKB does not appear to play an important role for the antilipolytic effect or activation of PDE3B in response to insulin.  相似文献

The mechanism of action by which insulin increases phosphatidic acid (PA) and diacylglycerol (DAG) levels was investigated in cultured hepatoma cells (HEPG2). Insulin stimulated phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidyl-inositol (PI) degradation through the activation of specific phospholipases C (PLC). The DAG increase appears to be biphasic. The early DAG production seems to be due to PI breakdown, probably through phosphatidyl-inositol-3-kinase (PI3K) involvement, whereas the delayed DAG increase is derived directly from the PC-PLC activity. The absence of phospholipase D (PLD) involvement was confirmed by the lack of PC-derived phosphatidylethanol production. Experiments performed in the presence of R59022, an inhibitor of DAG-kinase, indicated that PA release is the result of the DAG-kinase activity on the DAG produced in the early phase of insulin action.  相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) zeta has been implicated in insulin-induced glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cell, although the underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the effect of PKCzeta on actin remodeling and glucose transport in differentiated rat L6 muscle cells expressing myc-tagged glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4). On insulin stimulation, PKCzeta translocated from low-density microsomes to plasma membrane accompanied by increase in GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake. Z-scan confocal microscopy revealed a spatial colocalization of relocated PKCzeta with the small GTPase Rac-1, actin, and GLUT4 after insulin stimulation. The insulin-mediated colocalization, PKCzeta distribution, GLUT4 translocation, and glucose uptake were inhibited by wortmannin and cell-permeable PKCzeta pseudosubstrate peptide. In stable transfected cells, overexpression of PKCzeta caused an insulin-like effect on actin remodeling accompanied by a 2.1-fold increase in GLUT4 translocation and 1.7-fold increase in glucose uptake in the absence of insulin. The effects of PKCzeta overexpression were abolished by cell-permeable PKCzeta pseudosubstrate peptide, but not wortmannin. Transient transfection of constitutively active Rac-1 recruited PKCzeta to new structures resembling actin remodeling, whereas dominant negative Rac-1 prevented the insulin-mediated PKCzeta translocation. Together, these results suggest that PKCzeta mediates insulin effect on glucose transport through actin remodeling in muscle cells.  相似文献

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) can stimulate insulin-responsive glucose transporter (GLUT4) translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes (Wu-Wong, J. R., Berg, C. E., Wang, J., Chiou, W. J., and Fissel, B. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 8103-8110), and in the current study, we have evaluated the signaling pathway leading to this response. First, we inhibited endogenous Galpha(q/11) function by single-cell microinjection using anti-Galpha(q/11) antibody or RGS2 protein (a GTPase activating protein for Galpha(q)) followed by immunostaining to quantitate GLUT4 translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. ET-1-stimulated GLUT4 translocation was markedly decreased by 70 or 75% by microinjection of Galpha(q/11) antibody or RGS2 protein, respectively. Pretreatment of cells with the Galpha(i) inhibitor (pertussis toxin) or microinjection of a Gbetagamma inhibitor (glutathione S-transferase-beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (GST-BARK)) did not inhibit ET-1-induced GLUT4 translocation, indicating that Galpha(q/11 )mediates ET-1 signaling to GLUT4 translocation. Next, we found that ET-1-induced GLUT4 translocation was inhibited by the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin or LY294002, but not by the phospholipase C inhibitor U-73122. ET-1 stimulated the PI 3-kinase activity of the p110alpha subunit (5.5-fold), and microinjection of anti-p110alpha or PKC-lambda antibodies inhibited ET-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. Finally, we found that Galpha(q/11) formed immunocomplexes with the type-A endothelin receptor and the 110alpha subunit of PI 3-kinase and that ET-1 stimulation enhances tyrosine phosphorylation of Galpha(q/11). These results indicate that: 1) ET-1 signaling to GLUT4 translocation is dependent upon Galpha(q/11) and PI 3-kinase; and 2) Galpha(q/11) can transmit signals from the ET(A) receptor to the p110alpha subunit of PI 3-kinase, as does insulin, subsequently leading to GLUT4 translocation.  相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose transport in insulin target tissues by recruiting glucose transporters (primarily GLUT4) from an intracellular compartment to the cell surface. Previous studies have demonstrated that insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity and subsequent phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) contribute to mediating the effect of insulin on glucose transport. We have now investigated the roles of 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) and ras, two signaling proteins located downstream from tyrosine phosphorylation. Rat adipose cells were cotransfected with expression vectors that allowed transient expression of epitope-tagged GLUT4 and the other genes of interest. Overexpression of a mutant p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase lacking the ability to bind and activate the p110 catalytic subunit exerted a dominant negative effect to inhibit insulin-stimulated translocation of epitope-tagged GLUT4 to the cell surface. In addition, treatment of control cells with wortmannin (an inhibitor of PI 3-kinase) abolished the ability of insulin to recruit epitope-tagged GLUT4 to the cell surface. Thus, our data suggest that PI 3-kinase plays an essential role in insulin-stimulated GLUT4 recruitment in insulin target tissues. In contrast, over-expression of a constitutively active mutant of ras (L61-ras) resulted in high levels of cell surface GLUT4 in the absence of insulin that were comparable to levels seen in control cells treated with a maximally stimulating dose of insulin. However, wortmannin treatment of cells overexpressing L61-ras resulted in only a small decrease in the amount of cell surface GLUT4 compared with that of the same cells in the absence of wortmannin. Therefore, while activated ras is sufficient to recruit GLUT4 to the cell surface, it does so by a different mechanism that is probably not involved in the mechanism by which insulin stimulates GLUT4 translocation in physiological target tissues.  相似文献

It has been previously reported that calmodulin plays a regulatory role in the insulin stimulation of glucose transport. To examine the basis for this observation, we examined the effect of a panel of calmodulin antagonists that demonstrated a specific inhibition of insulin-stimulated glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) but not insulin- or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated GLUT1 translocation in 3T3L1 adipocytes. These treatments had no effect on insulin receptor autophosphorylation or tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1). Furthermore, IRS1 or phosphotyrosine antibody immunoprecipitation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity was not affected. Despite the marked insulin and PDGF stimulation of PI 3-kinase activity, there was a near complete inhibition of protein kinase B activation. Using a fusion protein of the Grp1 pleckstrin homology (PH) domain with the enhanced green fluorescent protein, we found that the calmodulin antagonists prevented the insulin stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3] formation in vivo. Similarly, although PDGF stimulation increased PI 3-kinase activity in in vitro immunoprecipitation assays, there was also no significant formation of PI(3,4,5)P3 in vivo. These data demonstrate that calmodulin antagonists prevent insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation by inhibiting the in vivo production of PI(3,4,5)P3 without directly affecting IRS1- or phosphotyrosine-associated PI 3-kinase activity. This phenomenon is similar to that observed for the PDGF stimulation of 3T3L1 adipocytes.  相似文献

Osmotic shock treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes causes an increase in glucose transport activity and translocation of GLUT4 protein similar to that elicited by insulin treatment. Insulin stimulation of GLUT4 translocation and glucose transport activity was completely inhibited by wortmannin, however, activation by osmotic shock was only partially blocked. Additionally, we have found that the newly identified insulin receptor substrate Gab-1 (Grb2-associated binder-1) is tyrosine-phosphorylated following sorbitol stimulation. Treatment of cells with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein inhibited osmotic shock-stimulated Gab-1 phosphorylation as well as shock-induced glucose transport. Furthermore, pretreatment with the selective Src family kinase inhibitor PP2 completely inhibited the ability of sorbitol treatment to cause tyrosine phosphorylation of Gab-1. We have also shown that microinjection of anti-Gab-1 antibody inhibits osmotic shock-induced GLUT4 translocation. Furthermore, phosphorylated Gab-1 binds and activates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) in response to osmotic shock. The PI3K activity associated with Gab-1 was 82% of that associated with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies, indicating that Gab-1 is the major site for PI3K recruitment following osmotic shock stimulation. Although wortmannin only causes a partial block of osmotic shock-stimulated glucose uptake, wortmannin completely abolishes Gab-1 associated PI3K activity. This suggests that other tyrosine kinase-dependent pathways, in addition to the Gab-1-PI3K pathway, contribute to osmotic shock-mediated glucose transport. To date, Gab-1 is the first protein identified as a member of the osmotic shock signal transduction pathway.  相似文献

The molecular mechanism of insulin resistance induced by high-fructose feeding is not fully understood. The present study investigated the role of downstream signaling molecules of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) in the insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle of high-fructose-fed rats. Rats were divided into chow-fed and fructose-fed groups. The results of the euglycemic clamp study (insulin infusion rates: 6 mU/kg BW/min) showed a significant decrease in the glucose infusion rate (GIR) and the metabolic clearance rate of glucose (MCR) in fructose-fed rats compared with chow-fed rats. In skeletal muscle removed immediately after the clamp procedure, high-fructose feeding did not alter protein levels of protein kinase B (PKB/Akt), protein kinase C zeta (PKCzeta), or glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4). However, insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt and PKCzeta and GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane were reduced. Our findings suggest that insulin resistance in fructose-fed rats is associated with impaired Akt and PKCzeta activation and GLUT4 translocation in skeletal muscle.  相似文献

Extracellular ATP acts as a signal that regulates a variety of cellular processes via binding to P2 purinergic receptors (P2 receptors). We herein investigated the effects and signaling pathways of ATP on glucose uptake in C(2)C(12) skeletal muscle cells. ATP as well as P2 receptor agonists (ATP-gamma S) stimulated the rate of glucose uptake, while P2 receptor antagonists (suramin) inhibited the stimulatory effect of ATP, indicating that P2 receptors are involved. This ATP-stimulated glucose transport was blocked by specific inhibitors of Gi protein (pertusiss toxin), phospholipase C (U73122), protein kinase C (GF109203X), and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase (LY294002). ATP stimulated PI 3-kinase activity and P2 receptor antagonists blocked this activation. In C(2)C(12) myotubes expressing glucose transporter GLUT4, ATP increased basal and insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Finally, ATP facilitated translocation of GLUT1 and GLUT4 into plasma membrane. These results together suggest that cells respond to extracellular ATP to increase glucose transport through P2 receptors.  相似文献

GLUT4 (glucose transporter 4) plays a pivotal role in insulin-induced glucose uptake to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Here, we report that a cell-permeable phosphoinositide-binding peptide induced GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane without inhibiting IRAP (insulin-responsive aminopeptidase) endocytosis. However, unlike insulin treatment, the peptide treatment did not increase glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, indicating that GLUT4 translocation and activation are separate events. GLUT4 activation can occur at the plasma membrane, since insulin was able to increase glucose uptake with a shorter time lag when inactive GLUT4 was first translocated to the plasma membrane by pretreating the cells with this peptide. Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity failed to inhibit GLUT4 translocation by the peptide but did inhibit glucose uptake when insulin was added following peptide treatment. Insulin, but not the peptide, stimulated GLUT1 translocation. Surprisingly, the peptide pretreatment inhibited insulin-induced GLUT1 translocation, suggesting that the peptide treatment has both a stimulatory effect on GLUT4 translocation and an inhibitory effect on insulin-induced GLUT1 translocation. These results suggest that GLUT4 requires translocation to the plasma membrane, as well as activation at the plasma membrane, to initiate glucose uptake, and both of these steps normally require PI 3-kinase activation.  相似文献

Cellular insulin stimulation generates a burst of H(2)O(2) that modulates protein-tyrosine phosphorylation in the insulin action pathway, in part by the inhibition of redox-sensitive protein-tyrosine phosphatases [J. Biol. Chem. 276 (2001) 21938]. Blocking the insulin-induced rise in H(2)O(2) with the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) strongly attenuated the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3' (PI 3')-kinase, Akt and GLUT4 translocation by insulin in 3T3-L1 adipocytes; however, under identical conditions, we observed a paradoxical increase in the activation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. DPI inhibited the insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and IRS-1/2, and also reduced the association of Grb2 with IRS-1, suggesting that the effect of DPI on MAP kinase activation occurred downstream of the IR and IRS proteins. DPI increased the insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAP kinase with no change in basal, and increased insulin-stimulated MAP kinase kinase (MEK) activity by a similar degree. DPI enhanced basal Grb2-Sos binding and reduced the effect of insulin to potentiate the dissociation of the Grb2-Sos complex, suggesting that the effect of DPI was mediated upstream of Raf-1. Cell treatment with dibutyryl cAMP significantly reduced the enhancement of MAP kinase activation in the presence of DPI. However, forskolin, acting in a PKA-independent manner, increased the insulin stimulation of MAP kinase and MEK, but fully abrogated the effect of DPI to enhance these insulin responses. PLCgamma inhibition with U73122 blocked the insulin stimulation of MAP kinase and MEK as well as the enhancing effect of DPI on these responses. PKC activation strongly stimulated MAP kinase and MEK activation, even in the presence of U73122, consistent with PKC acting downstream of PLCgamma. These data show that the insulin-stimulated oxidant signal differentially affects the two major downstream components of the insulin signaling pathway, PI 3'-kinase and MAP kinase, and cross-talk between insulin action, PLCgamma and, to a lesser extent, PKA modulates the net cellular effects of insulin-stimulated cellular H(2)O(2).  相似文献

PKCtheta plays an essential role in activation of mature T cells via stimulation of AP-1 and NF-kappaB, and is known to selectively translocate to the immunological synapse in antigen-stimulated T cells. Recently, we reported that a Vav/Rac pathway which depends on actin cytoskeleton reorganization mediates selective recruitment of PKCtheta to the membrane or cytoskeleton and its catalytic activation by anti-CD3/CD28 costimulation. Because this pathway acted selectively on PKCtheta, we addressed here the question of whether the translocation and activation of PKCtheta in T cells is regulated by a unique pathway distinct from the conventional mechanism for PKC activation, i.e., PLC-mediated production of DAG. Using three independent approaches, i.e., a selective PLC inhibitor, a PLCgamma1-deficient T cell line, or a dominant negative PLCgamma1 mutant, we demonstrate that CD3/CD28-induced membrane recruitment and COOH-terminal phosphorylation of PKCtheta are largely independent of PLC. In contrast, the same inhibitory strategies blocked the membrane translocation of PKCalpha. Membrane or lipid raft recruitment of PKCtheta (but not PKCalpha) was absent in T cells treated with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) inhibitors or in Vav-deficient T cells, and was enhanced by constitutively active PI3-K. 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1) also upregulated the membrane translocation of PKCtheta;, but did not associate with it. These results provide evidence that a nonconventional PI3-K- and Vav-dependent pathway mediates the selective membrane recruitment and, possibly, activation of PKCtheta in T cells.  相似文献

We evaluated the role of the G alpha-q (Galphaq) subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins in the insulin signaling pathway leading to GLUT4 translocation. We inhibited endogenous Galphaq function by single cell microinjection of anti-Galphaq/11 antibody or RGS2 protein (a GAP protein for Galphaq), followed by immunostaining to assess GLUT4 translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Galphaq/11 antibody and RGS2 inhibited insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation by 60 or 75%, respectively, indicating that activated Galphaq is important for insulin-induced glucose transport. We then assessed the effect of overexpressing wild-type Galphaq (WT-Galphaq) or a constitutively active Galphaq mutant (Q209L-Galphaq) by using an adenovirus expression vector. In the basal state, Q209L-Galphaq expression stimulated 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake and GLUT4 translocation to 70% of the maximal insulin effect. This effect of Q209L-Galphaq was inhibited by wortmannin, suggesting that it is phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) dependent. We further show that Q209L-Galphaq stimulates PI3-kinase activity in p110alpha and p110gamma immunoprecipitates by 3- and 8-fold, respectively, whereas insulin stimulates this activity mostly in p110alpha by 10-fold. Nevertheless, only microinjection of anti-p110alpha (and not p110gamma) antibody inhibited both insulin- and Q209L-Galphaq-induced GLUT4 translocation, suggesting that the metabolic effects induced by Q209L-Galphaq are dependent on the p110alpha subunit of PI3-kinase. In summary, (i) Galphaq appears to play a necessary role in insulin-stimulated glucose transport, (ii) Galphaq action in the insulin signaling pathway is upstream of and dependent upon PI3-kinase, and (iii) Galphaq can transmit signals from the insulin receptor to the p110alpha subunit of PI3-kinase, which leads to GLUT4 translocation.  相似文献

To directly define the role of phospholipase Cgamma1 (PLCgamma1) in NF-kappaB activation, NF-kappaB promoted luciferase reporter gene plasmid (pNF-kappaB-Luc) was transfected into rat-3Y1 fibroblasts that overexpress whole PLCgamma1 (PLCgamma1-3Y1), src homology domains SH2-SH2-SH3 of PLCgamma1 (SH223-3Y1) and v-src (Src-3Y1). Transient transfection with pNF-kappaB-Luc remarkably increased the luciferase activity in all three transformants compared with normal rat-3Y1 cells. Pretreatment with inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinase reduced this increase in luciferase activity, but U73122 (a PLC inhibitor) did not. While PD98059, an inhibitor of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), significantly reduced the luciferase activity, there was no effect by wortmannin and Ro-31-8220, inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase C (PKC), respectively. This study shows a direct evidence that the SH2-SH2-SH3 region of PLCgamma1 contributes to the NF-kappaB signaling and that MAPK, but not PI3K and PKC, is involved in SH2-SH2-SH3 mediated NF-kappaB activation in these cells.  相似文献

Phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase contributes to a wide variety of biological actions, including insulin stimulation of glucose transport in adipocytes. Both Akt (protein kinase B), a serine-threonine kinase with a pleckstrin homology domain, and atypical isoforms of protein kinase C (PKCζ and PKCλ) have been implicated as downstream effectors of PI 3-kinase. Endogenous or transfected PKCλ in 3T3-L1 adipocytes or CHO cells has now been shown to be activated by insulin in a manner sensitive to inhibitors of PI 3-kinase (wortmannin and a dominant negative mutant of PI 3-kinase). Overexpression of kinase-deficient mutants of PKCλ (λKD or λΔNKD), achieved with the use of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer, resulted in inhibition of insulin activation of PKCλ, indicating that these mutants exert dominant negative effects. Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 to the plasma membrane, but not growth hormone- or hyperosmolarity-induced glucose uptake, were inhibited by λKD or λΔNKD in a dose-dependent manner. The maximal inhibition of insulin-induced glucose uptake achieved by the dominant negative mutants of PKCλ was ~50 to 60%. These mutants did not inhibit insulin-induced activation of Akt. A PKCλ mutant that lacks the pseudosubstrate domain (λΔPD) exhibited markedly increased kinase activity relative to that of the wild-type enzyme, and expression of λΔPD in quiescent 3T3-L1 adipocytes resulted in the stimulation of glucose uptake and translocation of GLUT4 but not in the activation of Akt. Furthermore, overexpression of an Akt mutant in which the phosphorylation sites targeted by growth factors are replaced by alanine resulted in inhibition of insulin-induced activation of Akt but not of PKCλ. These results suggest that insulin-elicited signals that pass through PI 3-kinase subsequently diverge into at least two independent pathways, an Akt pathway and a PKCλ pathway, and that the latter pathway contributes, at least in part, to insulin stimulation of glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.  相似文献

Recruitment of intracellular glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) to the plasma membrane of fat and muscle cells in response to insulin requires phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase as well as a proposed PI 3-kinase-independent pathway leading to activation of the small GTPase TC10. Here we show that in cultured adipocytes insulin causes acute cortical localization of the actin-regulatory neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) and actin-related protein-3 (Arp3) as well as cortical F-actin polymerization by a mechanism that is insensitive to the PI 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin. Expression of the dominant inhibitory N-WASP-DeltaWA protein lacking the Arp and actin binding regions attenuates the cortical F-actin rearrangements by insulin in these cells. Remarkably, the N-WASP-DeltaWA protein also inhibits insulin action on GLUT4 translocation, indicating dependence of GLUT4 recycling on N-WASP-directed cortical F-actin assembly. TC10 exhibits sequence similarity to Cdc42 and has been reported to bind N-WASP. We show the inhibitory TC10 (T31N) mutant, which abrogates insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation and glucose transport, also inhibits both cortical localization of N-WASP and F-actin formation in response to insulin. These findings reveal that N-WASP likely functions downstream of TC10 in a PI 3-kinase-independent insulin signaling pathway to mobilize cortical F-actin, which in turn promotes GLUT4 responsiveness to insulin.  相似文献

We investigated the role of cdc42, a Rho GTPase family member, in insulin-induced glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Microinjection of anti-cdc42 antibody or cdc42 siRNA led to decreased insulin-induced and constitutively active G(q) (CA-G(q); Q209L)-induced GLUT4 translocation. Adenovirus-mediated expression of constitutively active cdc42 (CA-cdc42; V12) stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake to 56% of the maximal insulin response, and this was blocked by treatment with the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) inhibitor, wortmannin, or LY294002. Both insulin and CA-G(q) expression caused an increase in cdc42 activity, showing that cdc42 is activated by insulin and is downstream of G alpha(q/11) in this activation pathway. Immunoprecipitation experiments showed that insulin enhanced a direct association of cdc42 and p85, and both insulin treatment and CA-cdc42 expression stimulated PI3-kinase activity in immunoprecipitates with anti-cdc42 antibody. Furthermore, the effects of insulin, CA-G(q), and CA-cdc42 on GLUT4 translocation or 2-deoxyglucose uptake were inhibited by microinjection of anti-protein kinase C lambda (PKC lambda) antibody or overexpression of a kinase-deficient PKC lambda construct. In summary, activated cdc42 can mediate 1) insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation and 2) glucose transport in a PI3-kinase-dependent manner. 3) Insulin treatment and constitutively active G(q) expression can enhance the cdc42 activity state as well as the association of cdc42 with activated PI3-kinase. 4) PKC lambda inhibition blocks CA-cdc42, CA-G(q), and insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. Taken together, these data indicate that cdc42 can mediate insulin signaling to GLUT4 translocation and lies downstream of G alpha(q/11) and upstream of PI3-kinase and PKC lambda in this stimulatory pathway.  相似文献
