Modulation of mitochondrial function through inhibiting respiratory complex I activates a key sensor of cellular energy status, the 5''-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Activation of AMPK results in the mobilization of nutrient uptake and catabolism for mitochondrial ATP generation to restore energy homeostasis. How these nutrient pathways are affected in the presence of a potent modulator of mitochondrial function and the role of AMPK activation in these effects remain unclear. We have identified a molecule, named R419, that activates AMPK in vitro via complex I inhibition at much lower concentrations than metformin (IC50 100 nM vs 27 mM, respectively). R419 potently increased myocyte glucose uptake that was dependent on AMPK activation, while its ability to suppress hepatic glucose production in vitro was not. In addition, R419 treatment of mouse primary hepatocytes increased fatty acid oxidation and inhibited lipogenesis in an AMPK-dependent fashion. We have performed an extensive metabolic characterization of its effects in the db/db mouse diabetes model. In vivo metabolite profiling of R419-treated db/db mice showed a clear upregulation of fatty acid oxidation and catabolism of branched chain amino acids. Additionally, analyses performed using both 13C-palmitate and 13C-glucose tracers revealed that R419 induces complete oxidation of both glucose and palmitate to CO2 in skeletal muscle, liver, and adipose tissue, confirming that the compound increases mitochondrial function in vivo. Taken together, our results show that R419 is a potent inhibitor of complex I and modulates mitochondrial function in vitro and in diabetic animals in vivo. R419 may serve as a valuable molecular tool for investigating the impact of modulating mitochondrial function on nutrient metabolism in multiple tissues and on glucose and lipid homeostasis in diabetic animal models. 相似文献

Ca2+ flux into mitochondria is an important regulator of cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals, energy production and cell death pathways. Ca2+ uptake can occur through the recently discovered mitochondrial uniporter channel (MCU) but whether the MCU is involved in shaping Ca2+ signals and downstream responses to physiological levels of receptor stimulation is unknown. Here, we show that modest stimulation of leukotriene receptors with the pro-inflammatory signal LTC4 evokes a series of cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations that are rapidly and faithfully propagated into mitochondrial matrix. Knockdown of MCU or mitochondrial depolarisation, to reduce the driving force for Ca2+ entry into the matrix, prevents the mitochondrial Ca2+ rise and accelerates run down of the oscillations. The loss of cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations appeared to be a consequence of enhanced Ca2+-dependent inactivation of InsP3 receptors, which arose from the loss of mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering. Ca2+ dependent gene expression in response to leukotriene receptor activation was suppressed following knockdown of the MCU. In addition to buffering Ca2+ release, mitochondria also sequestrated Ca2+ entry through store-operated Ca2+ channels and this too was prevented following loss of MCU. MCU is therefore an important regulator of physiological pulses of cytoplasmic Ca2+. 相似文献

It has been proposed that in the heart, ranolazine shifts the energy source from fatty acids to glucose oxidation by inhibiting fatty acid oxidation. Up to now no mechanism for this inhibition has been proposed. The purpose of this study was to investigate if ranolazine also affects hepatic fatty acid oxidation, with especial emphasis on cell membrane permeation based on the observations that the compound interacts with biological membranes. The isolated perfused rat liver was used, and [1-14C]oleate transport was measured by means of the multiple-indicator dilution technique. Ranolazine inhibited net uptake of [1-14C]-oleate by impairing transport of this fatty acid. The compound also diminished the extra oxygen consumption and ketogenesis driven by oleate and the mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ ratio, but stimulated 14CO2 production. These effects were already significant at 20 μM ranolazine. Ranolazine also inhibited both oxygen consumption and ketogenesis driven by endogenous fatty acids in substrate-free perfused livers. In isolated mitochondria ranolazine inhibited acyl-CoA oxidation and β-hydroxybutyrate or α-ketoglutarate oxidation coupled to ADP phosphorylation. It was concluded that ranolazine inhibits fatty acid uptake and oxidation in the liver by at least two mechanisms: inhibition of cell membrane permeation and by an inhibition of the mitochondrial electron transfer via pyridine nucleotides. 相似文献

Glucose is a primary stimulator of insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells. High concentration of glucose has been thought to exert its action solely through its metabolism. In this regard, we have recently reported that glucose also activates a cell-surface glucose-sensing receptor and facilitates its own metabolism. In the present study, we investigated whether glucose activates the glucose-sensing receptor and elicits receptor-mediated rapid actions. In MIN6 cells and isolated mouse β-cells, glucose induced triphasic changes in cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c); glucose evoked an immediate elevation of [Ca2+]c, which was followed by a decrease in [Ca2+]c, and after a certain lag period it induced large oscillatory elevations of [Ca2+]c. Initial rapid peak and subsequent reduction of [Ca2+]c were independent of glucose metabolism and reproduced by a nonmetabolizable glucose analogue. These signals were also blocked by an inhibitor of T1R3, a subunit of the glucose-sensing receptor, and by deletion of the T1R3 gene. Besides Ca2+, glucose also induced an immediate and sustained elevation of intracellular cAMP ([cAMP]c). The elevation of [cAMP]c was blocked by transduction of the dominant-negative Gs, and deletion of the T1R3 gene. These results indicate that glucose induces rapid changes in [Ca2+]c and [cAMP]c by activating the cell-surface glucose-sensing receptor. Hence, glucose generates rapid intracellular signals by activating the cell-surface receptor. 相似文献

Livers from fed male rats were perfused in a nonrecycling system for 60 min with a medium containing 100 mg/dl glucose, 3 g/dl bovine serum albumin, and ~0.5 mm oleic acid, with or without 20 μm dibutyryl cyclic adenosine-3′,5′-monophosphate (Bt2cAMP). At the termination of the experiment, microsomes were isolated from these livers. In agreement with data reported previously, Bt2cAMP decreased output of triacylglycerol, but stimulated ketogenesis and output of glucose; uptake of free fatty acid was unaffected by the nucleotide. Perfusion with Bt2AMP decreased the biosynthesis of triacylglycerol, diacylglycerol, and phosphatidate from sn-[U-14C]glycerol-3-phosphate by microsomes isolated from these livers. Perfusion with Bt2cAMP also decreased incorporation of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate into phosphatidate by microsomes isolated from the livers, when the microsomes were incubated with NaF to inhibit phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, and when fatty acid, coenzyme A and ATP were replaced by the acyl coenzyme A derivative; the formation of phosphatidate under these conditions was used as an estimate of the activity of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.15). However, the activities of microsomal phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (EC 3.1.3.4) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20), measured with microsomal bound substrate, were increased by Bt2cAMP. These data have been interpreted to mean that Bt2cAMP inhibits hepatic microsomal synthesis of triacylglycerol at a step prior to the formation of phosphatidate, presumably at the glycerophosphate acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.15) step(s). 相似文献

Although mitochondrial impairment has often been implicated in carcinogenesis, the mechanisms of its development in cancer remain unknown. We report here that autophagy triggered by oncogenic K-Ras mediates functional loss of mitochondria during cell transformation to overcome an energy deficit resulting from glucose deficiency. When Rat2 cells were infected with a retrovirus harboring constitutively active K-RasV12, mitochondrial respiration significantly declined in parallel with the acquisition of transformation characteristics. Decreased respiration was not related to mitochondrial biogenesis but was inversely associated with the increased formation of acidic vesicles enclosing mitochondria, during which autophagy-related proteins such as Beclin 1, Atg5, LC3-II and vacuolar ATPases were induced. Interestingly, blocking autophagy with conventional inhibitors (bafilomycin A, 3-methyladenin) and siRNA-mediated knockdown of autophagy-related genes recovered respiratory protein expression and respiratory activity; JNK was involved in these phenomena as an upstream regulator. The cells transformed by K-RasV12 maintained cellular ATP level mainly through glycolytic ATP production without induction of GLUT1, the low Km glucose transporter. Finally, K-RasV12-triggered LC3-II formation was modulated by extracellular glucose levels, and LC3-II formation increased only in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues exhibiting low glucose uptake and increased K-Ras expression. Taken together, our observations suggest that mitochondrial functional loss may be mediated by oncogenic K-Ras-induced mitophagy during early tumorigenesis even in the absence of hypoxia, and that this mitophagic process may be an important strategy to overcome the cellular energy deficit triggered by insufficient glucose. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP (cAMP) and Ca2+ are key regulators of exocytosis in many cells, including insulin-secreting β cells. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from β cells is pulsatile and involves oscillations of the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), but little is known about the detailed kinetics of cAMP signaling. Using evanescent-wave fluorescence imaging we found that glucose induces pronounced oscillations of cAMP in the submembrane space of single MIN6 cells and primary mouse β cells. These oscillations were preceded and enhanced by elevations of [Ca2+]i. However, conditions raising cytoplasmic ATP could trigger cAMP elevations without accompanying [Ca2+]i rise, indicating that adenylyl cyclase activity may be controlled also by the substrate concentration. The cAMP oscillations correlated with pulsatile insulin release. Whereas elevation of cAMP enhanced secretion, inhibition of adenylyl cyclases suppressed both cAMP oscillations and pulsatile insulin release. We conclude that cell metabolism directly controls cAMP and that glucose-induced cAMP oscillations regulate the magnitude and kinetics of insulin exocytosis. 相似文献

Bongkrekic acid (BKA) inhibits adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) and suppresses ADP/ATP exchange in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Previously, we demonstrated that BKA exhibited cytotoxic effects on 4T1 tumor cells, depending on the cell number in the culture, but not on NIH3T3 cells. However, the cause of this differential sensitivity was unelucidated. Here we demonstrate that BKA reduced the O2 consumption in both cell lines and increased the mitochondrial membrane potential, thereby facilitating glucose consumption. BKA reduced cellular ATP in 4T1 cells in a dose-dependent manner but not in NIH3T3 cells. The cellular ATP of 4T1 cells was decreased with a reduced glucose concentration in the media, but that of NIH3T3 cells remained constant. We also demonstrated that BKA-induced cell death in both cell lines in low glucose media; however, the susceptibility to the reduced glucose concentration was slightly higher in 4T1 cells, which may be attributed to the difference in the dependency on glycolysis as their energy source. These results indicate that 4T1 tumor cells rely heavily on glucose for energy production. Our data demonstrate that BKA disturbs ATP production in mitochondria and increases the susceptibility to a low glucose condition. 相似文献

Glucose uptake/production was studied as a function of varied glucose loadsin isolated perfused livers from glucagon-treated alloxan-diabetic rats. Uptake of D-[U-14C]glucose was seen at all levels studied - 9.5–71 mM. In studies with unlabelled D-glucose carried out in the absence of 3-mercaptopicolinate, livers of diabetic rats showed a net production of glucose with perfusate glucose levels less than 22 mM. Above this level, these livers exhibited a time- and concentration-dependent net uptake of glucose for the period of 20–30 min. When 4 mM 3-mercaptopicolinate, which inhibited gluconeogenesis from endogenous substrates, was included in perfusates, a continuous net uptake of unlabelled glucose was observed at all levels above 4 mM. This lowering of the null-point, cross-over glucose concentration was shown to relate mechanistically to the observed reduction in steady hepatic glucose 6-phosphate level produced by mercaptopicolinate. The need for supplemental mechanisms of glucose utilization by high Kww hepatic enzyme(s) operative in the virtual absence of insulin-dependent glucokinase also is indicated by these observations and by kinetic analysis. 相似文献

The possible interaction of l-3,3′,-5-triiodthyronine (T3) and cycli AMP on hepatic gluconeogenesis was investigated in perfused livers isolated from hypothyroid rats starved for 24 h. T3 (1·10?6) and cyclic AMP (2·10?4 M) increased hepatic gluconeogenesis from alanine within 30–60 min perfusion time (+85%/ + 90%), both were additive in their action (+191%). Concomitantly, α-amino[14C]isobutyric acid as well as net alanine uptake and urea production were elevated by T3 and by cyclic AMP. T3 increased the oligomycin-sensitive O2 consumption and the tissue ‘overall’ ATP/ADP ratio, whereas cyclic AMP showed only a minor effect on cellular energy metabolism. As was observed recently for cyclic AMP, the stimulating action of T3 on hepatic gluconeogenesis was independent of exogenous Ca2+ concentration. T3 by itself affected neither the total nor the protein-bound hepatic cyclic AMP contents, pyruvate kinese (v:0.15 mM) activation nor the tissue levels of gluconeogenic intermediates. In contrast, cyclic AMP itself — although less effective than in euthyroid livers — decreased pyruvate kinase activity in hypothyroid livers with a concomitant increase in hepatic phosphoenolpyruvate concentration. This resulted in a ‘crossover’ between pyruvate and phosphoenolpyruvate. Cyclic AMP action was not affected by the further addition of T3. Glucagon (1·10?8 M) was less effective in hypo-than in euthyroid livers in increasing endogenous cyclic AMP content, deactivating pyruvate kinase and stimualting glucose production; this is normalized by the further addition of 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (50 μM). It is concluded that T3 stimulats hepatic gluconeogenesis by a cyclic-AMP-independent mechanism. In addition, the stimulatory action of cyclic AMP and glucagon with respect to hepatic gluconeogenesis is reduced in hypothyroidism. This may be explained by an increase in hepatic phosphodiesterase activity. 相似文献

Chick embryo heart cells in tissue culture actively oxidize [1-14C]palmitate to 14CO2. Fatty acid oxidation by cell monolayers was linear with time and increasing protein concentration. The addition of carnitine to the assay medium resulted in a 30–70% increase in the rate of fatty acid oxidation. The specific activity of palmitic acid oxidation did not change significantly with time in culture and was also the same in rapidly proliferating and density-inhibited cell cultures. Addition of unlabeled glucose to the assay medium resulted in a 50% decrease in 14CO2 production from [1-14C]palmitate. Conversely, palmitate had a similar sparing effect on [14C]glucose oxidation to 14CO2. Lactate production accounted for most of the glucose depleted from the medium and was not inhibited by the presence of palmitate in the assay. Thus, the sparing action of the fatty acids on glucose oxidation appears to be at the mitochondrial level. The results indicate that although chick heart cells in culture are primarily anaerobic, they can oxidize fatty acid actively. 相似文献

The regulation of human platelet responses by cyclic AMP (cAMP) has been investigated by measuring thrombin-stimulated serotonin release, Ca2+ uptake and phospholipase activity. Thrombin-induced 1,2-diacylglycerol (DG) formation as a result of phospholipase C activation was inhibited by pretreatment with dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) in a dose-dependent manner. Subsequent failure to produce phosphatidic acid (PA), which is converted from 1,2-DG by phosphorylation and would serve as intracellular Ca2+ ionophore, appeared to parallel the decrease in Ca2+ uptake activity. Phospholipase A2 activity, monitored by the production of [3H]lysophosphatidylcholine and [3H]lysophosphatidylethanolamine, was also suppressed by dbcAMP. These data indicate that the intracellular cAMP level may be closely associated with Ca2+ uptake and phospholipases activation. In addition, it is suggested that alteration of intracellular cAMP regulates phospholipase activation and consequently platelet responses, perhaps by controlling available Ca2+ content. 相似文献

Cultured human myotubes have a low mitochondrial oxidative potential. This study aims to remodel energy metabolism in myotubes by replacing glucose with galactose during growth and differentiation to ultimately examine the consequences for fatty acid and glucose metabolism. Exposure to galactose showed an increased [14C]oleic acid oxidation, whereas cellular uptake of oleic acid uptake was unchanged. On the other hand, both cellular uptake and oxidation of [14C]glucose increased in myotubes exposed to galactose. In the presence of the mitochondrial uncoupler carbonylcyanide p-trifluormethoxy-phenylhydrazone (FCCP) the reserve capacity for glucose oxidation was increased in cells grown with galactose. Staining and live imaging of the cells showed that myotubes exposed to galactose had a significant increase in mitochondrial and neutral lipid content. Suppressibility of fatty acid oxidation by acute addition of glucose was increased compared to cells grown in presence of glucose. In summary, we show that cells grown in galactose were more oxidative, had increased oxidative capacity and higher mitochondrial content, and showed an increased glucose handling. Interestingly, cells exposed to galactose showed an increased suppressibility of fatty acid metabolism. Thus, galactose improved glucose metabolism and metabolic switching of myotubes, representing a cell model that may be valuable for metabolic studies related to insulin resistance and disorders involving mitochondrial impairments. 相似文献

Growing evidence indicates that some metabolites derived from the kynurenine pathway, the major route of l-tryptophan catabolism, are involved in the neurotoxicity associated with several brain disorders, such as Huntington’s disease,
Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as in glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (GAI). Considering that the
pathophysiology of the brain damage in these neurodegenerative disorders is not completely defined, in the present study,
we investigated the in vitro effect of l-kynurenine (Kyn), kynurenic acid (KA), 3-hydroxykynurenine (3HK), 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3HA) and anthranilic acid (AA)
on some parameters of energy metabolism, namely glucose uptake, 14CO2 production from [U-14C] glucose, [1-14C] acetate and [1,5-14C] citrate, as well as on the activities of the respiratory chain complexes I–IV and Na+,K+-ATPase activity in cerebral cortex from 30-day-old rats. We observed that all compounds tested, except l-kynurenine, significantly increased glucose uptake and inhibited 14CO2 production from [U-14C] glucose, [1-14C] acetate and [1,5-14C] citrate. In addition, the activities of complexes I, II and IV of the respiratory chain were significantly inhibited by
3HK, while 3HA inhibited complexes I and II activities and AA inhibited complexes I–III activities. Moreover, Na+,K+-ATPase activity was not modified by these kynurenines. Taken together, our present data provide evidence that various kynurenine
intermediates provoke impairment of brain energy metabolism. 相似文献

Background
Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and its analogue exendin-4 (Ex-4) enhance glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and activate various signaling pathways in pancreatic β-cells, in particular cAMP, Ca2+ and protein kinase-B (PKB/Akt). In many cells these signals activate intermediary metabolism. However, it is not clear whether the acute amplification of GSIS by GLP-1 involves in part metabolic alterations and the production of metabolic coupling factors.Methodology/Prinicipal Findings
GLP-1 or Ex-4 at high glucose caused release (∼20%) of the total rat islet insulin content over 1 h. While both GLP-1 and Ex-4 markedly potentiated GSIS in isolated rat and mouse islets, neither had an effect on β-cell fuel and energy metabolism over a 5 min to 3 h time period. GLP-1 activated PKB without changing glucose usage and oxidation, fatty acid oxidation, lipolysis or esterification into various lipids in rat islets. Ex-4 caused a rise in [Ca2+]i and cAMP but did not enhance energy utilization, as neither oxygen consumption nor mitochondrial ATP levels were altered.Conclusions/Significance
The results indicate that GLP-1 barely affects β-cell intermediary metabolism and that metabolic signaling does not significantly contribute to GLP-1 potentiation of GSIS. The data also indicate that insulin secretion is a minor energy consuming process in the β-cell, and that the β-cell is different from most cell types in that its metabolic activation appears to be primarily governed by a “push” (fuel substrate driven) process, rather than a “pull” mechanism secondary to enhanced insulin release as well as to Ca2+, cAMP and PKB signaling. 相似文献16.
Background
Bicarbonate activated Soluble Adenylyl Cyclase (sAC) is a unique cytoplasmic and nuclear signaling mechanism for the generation of cAMP. HCO3 - activates sAC in bovine corneal endothelial cells (BCECs), increasing [cAMP] and stimulating PKA, leading to phosphorylation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane-conductance regulator (CFTR) and increased apical Cl- permeability. Here, we examined whether HCO3 - may also regulate the expression of sAC and thereby affect the production of cAMP upon activation by HCO3 - and the stimulation of CFTR in BCECs. 相似文献17.
Striated muscles (skeletal and cardiac) are major physiological targets of insulin and this hormone triggers complex signaling pathways regulating cell growth and energy metabolism. Insulin increases glucose uptake into muscle cells by stimulating glucose transporter (GLUT4) translocation from intracellular compartments to the cell surface. The canonical insulin-triggered signaling cascade controlling this process is constituted by well-mapped tyrosine, lipid and serine/threonine phosphorylation reactions. In parallel to these signals, recent findings reveal insulin-dependent Ca2+ mobilization in skeletal muscle cells and cardiomyocytes. Specifically, insulin activates the sarco-endoplasmic reticulum (SER) channels that release Ca2+ into the cytosol i.e., the Ryanodine Receptor (RyR) and the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (IP3R). In skeletal muscle cells, a rapid, insulin-triggered Ca2+ release occurs through RyR, that is brought about upon S-glutathionylation of cysteine residues in the channel by reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the early activation of the NADPH oxidase (NOX2). In cardiomyocytes insulin induces a fast and transient increase in cytoplasmic [Ca2+]i trough L-type Ca2+ channels activation. In both cell types, a relatively slower Ca2+ release also occurs through IP3R activation, and is required for GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake. The insulin-dependent Ca2+ released from IP3R of skeletal muscle also promotes mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake. We review here these actions of insulin on intracellular Ca2+ channel activation and their impact on GLUT4 traffic in muscle cells, as well as other implications of insulin-dependent Ca2+ release from the SER. 相似文献

In cowpea seedlings starch hydrolysing activity increases 35–50 fold on germination for 4 days. This increase in enzyme activity was inhibited by the in vivo addition of 1% glucose but this inhibition was completely overcome by the addition of gibberellic acid (GA3) (10?5 M) and adenosine-3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) (10?5 M). At 5% glucose, GA3 and cAMP were only partially effective. Structural analogues of cAMP failed to relieve the inhibitory effect of glucose. The inhibition by glucose is not direct but RNA and protein synthesis may be involved. Glucose appears to reduce the internal pool of cAMP which causes inhibition of RNA synthesis and decrease in starch hydrolysing activity. Exogenous application of cAMP may replenish the endogenous pool of cyclic nucleotide and thus overcome inhibition of RNA synthesis and enzyme activity. 相似文献

Background
Glucose homeostasis is maintained by a balance between hepatic glucose production and peripheral glucose utilization. In skeletal muscle cells, glucose utilization is primarily regulated by glucose uptake. Deprivation of cellular energy induces the activation of regulatory proteins and thus glucose uptake. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is known to play a significant role in the regulation of energy balances. However, the mechanisms related to the AMPK-mediated control of glucose uptake have yet to be elucidated.Methodology/Principal Findings
Here, we found that AMPK-induced phospholipase D1 (PLD1) activation is required for 14C-glucose uptake in muscle cells under glucose deprivation conditions. PLD1 activity rather than PLD2 activity is significantly enhanced by glucose deprivation. AMPK-wild type (WT) stimulates PLD activity, while AMPK-dominant negative (DN) inhibits it. AMPK regulates PLD1 activity through phosphorylation of the Ser-505 and this phosphorylation is increased by the presence of AMP. Furthermore, PLD1-S505Q, a phosphorylation-deficient mutant, shows no changes in activity in response to glucose deprivation and does not show a significant increase in 14C-glucose uptake when compared to PLD1-WT. Taken together, these results suggest that phosphorylation of PLD1 is important for the regulation of 14C-glucose uptake. In addition, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is stimulated by AMPK-induced PLD1 activation through the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA), which is a product of PLD. An ERK pharmacological inhibitor, PD98059, and the PLD inhibitor, 1-BtOH, both attenuate 14C-glucose uptake in muscle cells. Finally, the extracellular stresses caused by glucose deprivation or aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR; AMPK activator) regulate 14C-glucose uptake and cell surface glucose transport (GLUT) 4 through ERK stimulation by AMPK-mediated PLD1 activation.Conclusions/Significance
These results suggest that AMPK-mediated PLD1 activation is required for 14C-glucose uptake through ERK stimulation. We propose that the AMPK-mediated PLD1 pathway may provide crucial clues to understanding the mechanisms involved in glucose uptake. 相似文献20.
Protoplasts isolated from beetroot tissue took up glucose preferentially whereas sucrose was transported more slowly. The 14C-label from [14C]glucose and [14C]sucrose taken up by the cells could be detected rapidly in phosphate esters and, after feeding of [14C]glucose was found also in sucrose. The temperature-dependent uptake process (activation energy EA about 50 kJ · mol–1) seems to be carrier mediated as indicated by its substrate saturation and, for glucose, by competition experiments which revealed positions C1, C5 and C6 of the D-glucose molecule as important for effective uptake. The apparent Km(20° C) for glucose (3-O-methylglucose) was about 1 mM whereas for sucrose a significantly lower apparent affinity was determined (Km about 10 mM). When higher concentrations of glucose (5 mM) or sucrose (20 mM) were administered, the uptake process followed first-order kinetics. Carrier-mediated transport was inhibited by N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, Na-orthovanadate, p–chloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid, and by uncouplers and ionophores. The uptake system exhibited a distinct pH optimum at pH 5.0. The results indicate that generation of a proton gradient is a prerequisite for sugar uptake across the plasma membrane. Protoplasts from the bundle regions in the hypocotyl take up glucose at higher rates than those derived from bundle-free regions. The results favour the idea that apoplastic transport of assimilates en route of unloading might be restricted to distinct areas within the storage organ (i.e. the bundle region) whereas distribution in the storage parenchyma is symplastic.Abbreviations CCCP
