A novel small molecule compound which exerts insulin mimetic is desirable. Dozens of natural products that have quinone, naphthoquinone, or anthraquinone structure, were tested by a glucose incorporation assay. We found that sennidin A, anthraquinone derivative, stimulated glucose incorporation to near level of maximal insulin-stimulated and sennidin B, a stereoisomer of sennidin A, also stimulated, but the activity of sennidin B was lower than sennidin A. Sennidin A-stimulated glucose incorporation was completely inhibited by wortmannin. Sennidin A did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), but induced phosphorylation of Akt and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation. Our results suggest that in rat adipocytes, sennidin A stimulates glucose incorporation in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)- and Akt-dependent, but in the IR/IRS1-independent manner. 相似文献

Type 2 diabetes patients show defects in insulin signal transduction that include lack of insulin receptor, decrease in insulin stimulated receptor tyrosine kinase activity and receptor-mediated phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrates (IRSs). A small molecule that could target insulin signaling would be of significant advantage in the treatment of diabetes. Berberine (BBR) has recently been shown to lower blood glucose levels and to improve insulin resistance in db/db mice partly through the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling and induction of phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR). However, the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here we report that BBR mimics insulin action by increasing glucose uptake ability by 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myocytes in an insulin-independent manner, inhibiting phosphatase activity of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), and increasing phosphorylation of IR, IRS1 and Akt in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In diabetic mice, BBR lowers hyperglycemia and improves impaired glucose tolerance, but does not increase insulin release and synthesis. The results suggest that BBR represents a different class of anti-hyperglycemic agents. 相似文献

The present study discusses the efficacy of Aloe emodin-8-O-glycoside (AEG), a plant derived anthroquinone, on alleviating insulin resistance and augmenting glycogen synthesis in L6 myotubes and 3T3L1 adipocytes. Dose-dependent increase in glucose uptake activity (GUA) was observed in both cell lines. Immunoblot analysis revealed an insulin-like glucose transporting mechanism of AEG by activating key markers involved in the insulin signaling cascade such as insulin receptor beta IRβ, insulin receptor substrate1, 85 phosphatidyl inositol 3′ kinase (PI3K) and PKB. Glucose transporter 4 translocation was confirmed by determining the uptake of glucose in the presence of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase and PI3K inhibitors. AEG was found to enhance glycogen synthesis through the inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase 3β. In conclusion, AEG enhances glucose transport by modulating the proximal and distal markers involved in glucose uptake and its transformation into glycogen. 相似文献

Previous studies suggested that protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) antagonizes insulin action by catalyzing dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor (IR) and/or other key proteins in the insulin signaling pathway. In adipose tissue and muscle of obese humans and rodents, PTP1B expression is increased, which led to the hypothesis that PTP1B plays a role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. Consistent with this, mice in which the PTP1B gene was disrupted exhibit increased insulin sensitivity. To test whether increased expression of PTP1B in an insulin-sensitive cell type could contribute to insulin resistance, we overexpressed wild-type PTP1B in 3T3L1 adipocytes using adenovirus-mediated gene delivery. PTP1B expression was increased approximately 3-5-fold above endogenous levels at 16 h, approximately 14-fold at 40 h, and approximately 20-fold at 72 h post-transduction. Total protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity was increased by 50% at 16 h, 3-4-fold at 40 h, and 5-6-fold at 72 h post-transduction. Compared with control cells, cells expressing high levels of PTP1B showed a 50-60% decrease in maximally insulin-stimulated tyrosyl phosphorylation of IR and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activity associated with IRS-1 or with phosphotyrosine. Akt phosphorylation and activity were unchanged. Phosphorylation of p42 and p44 MAP kinase (MAPK) was reduced approximately 32%. Overexpression of PTP1B had no effect on basal, submaximally or maximally (100 nm) insulin-stimulated glucose transport or on the EC(50) for transport. Our results suggest that: 1) insulin stimulation of glucose transport in adipocytes requires =45% of maximal tyrosyl phosphorylation of IR or IRS-1 and <50% of maximal activation of PI3K, 2) a novel PI3K-independent pathway may play a role in insulin-induced glucose transport in adipocytes, and 3) overexpression of PTP1B alone in adipocytes does not impair glucose transport. 相似文献

Cinnamon improves glucose and lipid profiles of people with type 2 diabetes. Water-soluble cinnamon extract (CE) and HPLC-purified cinnamon polyphenols (CP) with doubly linked procyanidin type-A polymers display insulin-like activity. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of cinnamon on the protein and mRNA levels of insulin receptor (IR), glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), and tristetraprolin (TTP/ZFP36) in mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Immunoblotting showed that CP increased IRbeta levels and that both CE and CP increased GLUT4 and TTP levels in the adipocytes. Quantitative real-time PCR indicated that CE (100mug/ml) rapidly increased TTP mRNA levels by approximately 6-fold in the adipocytes. CE at higher concentrations decreased IRbeta protein and IR mRNA levels, and its effect on GLUT4 mRNA levels exhibited a biphasic pattern in the adipocytes. These results suggest that cinnamon exhibits the potential to increase the amount of proteins involved in insulin signaling, glucose transport, and anti-inflammatory/anti-angiogenesis response. 相似文献

Insulin exerts its actions through the insulin receptor (IR) and plays an essential role in diabetes. The inconvenient daily injection and undesirable side-effects associated with insulin injection demand novel drugs for the diseases. To search for bioactive insulin mimetics, we developed an in vitro screening assay using phospho-IR ELISA. After screening the small molecule chemical libraries, we have obtained a compound (5,8-diacetyloxy-2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone) that provokes IR activation by directly binding to the receptor kinase domain to trigger its kinase activity at micromolar concentrations. This compound selectively activates IR but not other receptors and sensitizes insulin's action. Moreover, it elevates glucose uptake in adipocytes and has oral hypoglycemic effect in wild-type C57BL/6J mice and db/db and ob/ob mice without demonstrable toxicity. Hence, this promising compound mimics the biological functions of insulin and is useful for further drug development for diabetes treatment. 相似文献

Insulin binding to its cell surface receptor (IR) activates a cascade of events leading to its biological effects. The Insulin-IR complex is rapidly internalized and then is either recycled back to the plasma membrane or sent to lysosomes for degradation. Although most of the receptor is recycled or degraded, a small amount may escape this pathway and migrate to the nucleus of the cell where it might be important in promulgation of receptor signals. In this study we explored the mechanism by which insulin induces IR translocation to the cell nucleus. Experiments were performed cultured L6 myoblasts, AML liver cells and 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Insulin treatment induced a rapid increase in nuclear IR protein levels within 2 to 5?min. Treatment with WGA, an inhibitor of nuclear import, reduced insulin-induced increases nuclear IR protein; IR was, however, translocated to a perinuclear location. Bioinformatics tools predicted a potential nuclear localization sequence (NLS) on IR. Immunofluorescence staining showed that a point mutation on the predicted NLS blocked insulin-induced IR nuclear translocation. In addition, blockade of nuclear IR activation in isolated nuclei by an IR blocking antibody abrogated insulin-induced increases in IR tyrosine phosphorylation and nuclear PKCδ levels. Furthermore, over expression of mutated IR reduced insulin-induced glucose uptake and PKB phosphorylation. When added to isolated nuclei, insulin induced IR phosphorylation but had no effect on nuclear IR protein levels. These results raise questions regarding the possible role of nuclear IR in IR signaling and insulin resistance. 相似文献

Inhibition of IRS-1 phosphorylation and the alterations of GLUT4 in isolated adipocytes from cachectic tumor-bearing rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Cellular and molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in isolated adipocytes from methylcholanthrene-induced sarcoma-bearing rats were investigated by measuring 3-O-[14C]methyl glucose transport activity, glucose transporter-4 (GLUT4) protein in both plasma membrane and low-density microsomes, and insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1). Compared to both pair-fed and freely fed controls, tumor-bearing rats (TBR) had a decreased insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity with a lower Vmax and a higher EC50. GLUT4 protein in low-density microsomes from adipocytes maintained at the basal state was less in TBR than in controls. In insulin-stimulated adipocytes, GLUT4 protein in plasma membranes was also less in tumor-bearing rats than in controls. Insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 was less in TBR than controls, but that of the IR was similar among the three groups. These data suggest that the insulin resistance seen in adipose cells of these tumor-bearing rats was caused in part by a decreased amount of GLUT4 protein in both basal and insulin-stimulated states resulting from the selective inhibition of insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of IRS-1. 相似文献

CSF-1 is equipotent to insulin in its ability to stimulate 2-[3H]deoxyglucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes expressing the colony stimulating factor-1 receptor/insulin receptor chimera (CSF1R/IR). However, CSF-1-stimulated glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis is reduced by 50% in comparison to insulin in 3T3-L1 cells expressing a CSF1R/IR mutated at Tyr960 (CSF1R/IRA960). CSF-1-treated adipocytes expressing the CSF1R/IRA960 were impaired in their ability to phosphorylate insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) but not in their ability to phosphorylate IRS-2. Immunoprecipitation of IRS proteins followed by Western blotting revealed that the intact CSF1R/IR co-precipitates with IRS-2 from CSF-1-treated cells. In contrast, the CSF1R/IRA960 co-precipitates poorly with IRS-2. These observations suggest that Tyr960 is important for interaction of the insulin receptor cytoplasmic domain with IRS-2, but it is not essential to the ability of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase to use IRS-2 as a substrate. These observations also suggest that in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-2 by the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase is not sufficient for maximal stimulation of receptor-regulated glucose transport or glycogen synthesis. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-dependent activation of atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) is required for insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Although insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and IRS-2, among other factors, activate PI3K, there is little information on the relative roles of IRS-1and IRS-2 during aPKC activation by insulin action in specific cell types. Presently, we have used immortalized brown adipocytes in which either IRS-1 or IRS-2 has been knocked out by recombinant methods to examine IRS-1 and IRS-2 requirements for activation of aPKC. We have also used these adipocytes to see if IRS-1 and IRS-2 are required for activation of Cbl, which is required for insulin-stimulated glucose transport and has been found to function upstream of both PI3K/aPKC and Crk during thiazolidinedione action in 3T3/L1 adipocytes [Miura et al. (2003) Biochemistry 42, 14335]. In brown adipocytes in which either IRS-1 or IRS-2 was knocked out, insulin-induced increases in aPKC activity and glucose transport were markedly diminished. These effects of insulin on aPKC and glucose transport were fully restored by retroviral-mediated expression of IRS-1 or IRS-2 in their respective knockout cells. Knockout of IRS-1 or IRS-2 also inhibited insulin-induced increases in Cbl binding to the p85 subunit of PI3K, which, along with IRS-1/2, may be required for activation of PI3K, aPKC, and glucose transport during insulin action in 3T3/L1 adipocytes. These findings provide evidence that directly links both IRS-1 and IRS-2 to aPKC activation in immortalized brown adipocytes, and further suggest that IRS-1 and IRS-2 are required for the activation of Cbl/PI3K during insulin action in these cells. 相似文献

Decreased GLUT4 expression, impaired insulin receptor (IR), IRS-1, and pp60/IRS-3 tyrosine phosphorylation are characteristics of adipocytes from insulin-resistant animal models and obese NIDDM humans. However, the sequence of events leading to the development of insulin signaling defects and the significance of decreased GLUT4 expression in causing adipocyte insulin resistance are unknown. The present study used male heterozygous GLUT4 knockout mice (GLUT4(+/-)) as a novel model of diabetes to study the development of insulin signaling defects in adipocytes with the progression of whole body insulin resistance and diabetes. Male GLUT4(+/-) mice with normal fed glycemia and insulinemia (N/N), normal fed glycemia and hyperinsulinemia (N/H), and fed hyperglycemia with hyperinsulinemia (H/H) exist at all ages. The expression of GLUT4 protein and the maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport was 50% decreased in adipocytes from all three groups. Insulin signaling was normal in N/N adipose cells. From 35 to 70% reductions in insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IR, IRS-1, and pp60/IRS-3 were noted with no changes in the cellular content of IR, IRS-1, and p85 in N/H adipocytes. Insulin-stimulated protein tyrosine phosphorylation was further decreased to 12-23% in H/H adipose cells accompanied by 42% decreased IR and 80% increased p85 expression. Insulin-stimulated, IRS-1-associated PI3 kinase activity was decreased by 20% in N/H and 68% reduced in H/H GLUT4(+/-) adipocytes. However, total insulin-stimulated PI3 kinase activity was normal in H/H GLUT4(+/-) adipocytes. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that hyperinsulinemia triggers a reduction of IR tyrosine kinase activity that is further exacerbated by the appearance of hyperglycemia. However, the insulin signaling cascade has sufficient plasticity to accommodate significant changes in specific components without further reducing glucose uptake. Furthermore, the data indicate that the cellular content of GLUT4 is the rate-limiting factor in mediating maximal insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in GLUT4(+/-) adipocytes. 相似文献

The insulin-like effect of sodium vanadate on adipocyte glucose transport is mediated at a post-insulin-receptor level. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A Green 《The Biochemical journal》1986,238(3):663-669
Sodium vanadate has several insulin-like effects. To determine whether vanadate acts via the insulin receptor, I investigated the effect of vanadate on glucose transport (2-deoxyglucose uptake) in adipocytes that had been treated to decrease the number of insulin receptors. Trypsin (100 micrograms/ml) caused greater than 95% loss of 125I-insulin binding and rendered glucose transport resistant to both insulin and an anti-insulin-receptor antibody. However, vanadate caused an 8-fold increase in the transport rate [EC50 (concn. giving 50% of maximum effect) 0.2 mM] in both control and trypsin-treated cells, demonstrating that the insulin receptor does not have to be intact for vanadate to stimulate glucose transport. Insulin receptors were depleted by treatment of adipocytes with insulin (100 ng/ml) in the presence of Tris (which blocks receptor recycling). A 2 h treatment caused 60% loss of receptors, and a shift to the right in the dose-response curve for insulin stimulation of glucose transport (EC50 0.3 ng of insulin/ml in controls, 1.2 ng/ml in treated cells). The response to vanadate was again unaffected. Treatment with insulin for 4 h caused a 67% decrease in insulin binding and, in addition to the rightward shift in the insulin dose-response curve, a decrease in basal and maximal transport rates (which cannot be explained by decreased insulin receptor number). The EC50 of vanadate was again equal in control and treated cells, but glucose transport in the presence of a maximally effective concentration of vanadate (1 mM) was decreased. I conclude that the effect of vanadate on glucose transport is independent of the insulin receptor. Induction of a post-receptor defect (which may be a decrease in the total number of cellular glucose transporters) by prolonged exposure to insulin decreases the potency of a maximally effective concentration of vanadate. The findings demonstrate that vanadate stimulates glucose transport by an effect at a level distal to the insulin receptor. 相似文献

Zn2+ (1 mM), Cd2+ (1 mM), and Hg2+ (0.1 mM) belonging to the IIb group in the periodic table stimulated glucose transport activity and cAMP phosphodiesterase in rat adipocytes. The stimulation of glucose transport was due to the translocation of glucose transporters from the intracellular site to the plasma membrane. However, in intact adipocytes none of these ions stimulated insulin receptor kinase activity or phosphorylation of the 95-kDa subunit of insulin receptor or 170- or 60-kDa proteins at the tyrosyl residues. These proteins were markedly phosphorylated by addition of 0.3 nM insulin which stimulated glucose transport activity as effectively as these metal ions. These results indicate that Zn2+, Cd2+, and Hg2+ mimic insulin action by a post-receptor/kinase mechanism. 相似文献

In continuation of our efforts to study the solution structure and conformational dynamics of insulin by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, we have synthesized and examined the biological activity of five insulin analogues in which selected naturally occurring residues in the A-chain have been replaced with the strongly fluorescent tryptophan residue. The potency of these analogues was evaluated in lipogenesis assays in isolated rat adipocytes, in receptor binding assays using rat liver plasma membranes, and in two cases, in receptor binding assays using adipocytes. [A3 Trp]insulin displays a potency of 3% in receptor binding assays in both liver membranes and in adipocytes, but only 0.06% in lipogenesis assays as compared to porcine insulin. [A10 Trp] insulin displays a potency ofca. 40% andca. 25% in rat liver receptor binding and lipogenesis assays, respectively. [A13 Trp]insulin displays a potency ofca. 39% in rat liver receptor binding assays, but onlyca. 9% in receptor binding in adipocytes; in lipogenesis assays, [A13 Trp] insulin displays a potency ofca. 12%, comparable to its potency in adipocyte receptor binding assays. [A15 Trp]insulin exhibits a potency of 18% and 9% in rat liver receptor binding and lipogenesis assays, respectively. The doubly substituted analogue, [A14 Trp, A19 Trp] insulin, displays a potency ofca. 0.7% in both rat liver receptor binding assays and lipogenesis assays. These data suggest two major conclusions: (1) the A3 and A15 residues lie in sensitive regions in the insulin molecule, and structural modifications at these positions have deleterious effects on biological activity of the hormone; and (2) [A13 Trp]insulin appears to be a unique case in which an insulin analogue exhibits a higher potency when assayed in liver tissue than when assayed in fat cells. 相似文献

The effect of cAMP on insulin binding and insulin stimulation of glucose transport was investigated in isolated rat adipocytes. Preincubation for 30 min in medium containing 16 mmol/l glucose and either db-cAMP or bromo-cAMP in concentrations of 10(-4)-10(-3) M inhibited high affinity binding of insulin by 15 to 30% and glucose transport by 30 to 50%. Preincubation with IBMX (10(-4)-10(-3) M) reduced insulin binding by 25% and glucose transport by 70%. Closer analysis of these data indicated that preincubation with these compounds caused not only a decrease in insulin binding but also a post-receptor resistance. High intracellular cyclic AMP-levels seem therefore to induce insulin resistance at both receptor and post-receptor levels. 相似文献

The effect of alterations to the insulin receptor on the insulin sensitivity of isolated adipocytes was studied. Receptor changes were induced by treatment of adipocytes with either phospholipase C or trypsin. After enzyme treatment, binding of insulin to insulin receptors and insulin-mediated glucose metabolism were examined. Exposure of adipocytes to phospholipase C (2 units/ml) significantly increased insulin binding to the cells, but destroyed the ability of the cells to oxidize glucose. After treatment with trypsin (500 micrograms/ml) for 5 min, insulin binding to the adipocytes was significantly increased. This was shown to be due to an increase in insulin-receptor affinity. Metabolic studies showed that trypsin treatment led to an increase in basal glucose transport but markedly decreased the response to insulin at all concentrations tested. Adipocytes treated with trypsin showed no significant difference in basal glucose oxidation rates when compared with controls, but were less sensitive to insulin at low insulin concentrations, and showed a decreased maximum response at high insulin concentrations. In conclusion, these findings indicate a dissociation between induced changes in binding of insulin to insulin receptors and subsequent hormone action. The importance of post-receptor events in the biological action of insulin is highlighted. 相似文献

The isoflavone-derivative genistein is commonly applied as an inhibitor of tyrosine kinases. In this report we analyze the effect of genistein on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In these cells insulin-induced glucose uptake is primarily mediated by the GLUT4 glucose transporter. We observed that pre-treatment with genistein did not affect insulin-induced tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin receptor or activation of protein kinase B. On the other hand, genistein acted as a direct inhibitor of insulin-induced glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes with an IC(50) of 20 microM. We conclude that apart from acting as a general tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein also affects the function of other proteins such as the GLUT4 transporter. These data suggest that caution must be applied when interpreting data on the involvement of tyrosine kinase activity in glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. 相似文献

Summary The effects of pH, oxidation reduction compounds and trypsin on insulin binding, hexose transport, and activation of glycogen
synthase were studied utilizing rat adipocytes. In this paper the effect of pH is examined; while in the subsequent two papers
the effects of glutathione and trypsin are examined.
Increase in pH from 6 to 8.5 increased labelled glucose oxidation, 2-deoxyglucose transport as well as labelled insulin binding
to the receptor. Enhanced insulin binding was due to an increased rate of association k+1 with no effect the rate of dissociation k−1 resulting in a decreased equilibrium dissociation constant KD. Glycogen synthase activity was unaffected by increase in pH when adipocytes were incubated with or without glucose. Insulin
in contrast to pH was effective in increasing the activity of glycogen synthase. With 2-deoxyglucose, % glycogen synthaseI activity was increased by an increase in pH. Glycogen synthase activity was thus stimulated by insulin by the direct mechanism,
previously termed mechanism 1, involving the formation of a chemical mediator, and clearly distinguishable from the activation
of hexose transport, previously termed mechanism 2(1). Increase in labelled glucose oxidation and in 2-deoxyglucose transport
with increased pH, as well as insulin stimulation, was abolished by preincubation with trypsin, or cytochalasin B; suggesting
that trypsin-sensitive and cytochalasin B-binding protein(s) presumably in the plasma membrane are involved in these effects
of pH. Since increase in pH alone activates cell membrane-mediated hexose transport and insulin receptor binding under conditions
where glycogen synthase is not activated, increase in pH acts presumably by a non-mediator mechanism. Insulin acts at the
membrane to enhance further the effects of increased pH, via a mediator mechanism. 相似文献
