Abstract

IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase, which is indispensable for cellular growth and differentiation. Using a recombinant GST-tagged cytosolic fragment of IGF1R (GST-IGFK), we now show that oxidation by low doses (50 μM) of hydrogen peroxide markedly inhibits maximum phosphate incorporation in autophosphorylation and substrate phosphorylation assays. A similar inhibition was observed on the activity of intact IGF1R after treatment of T-47D cells. These results are in sharp contrast to the positive influence of hydrogen peroxide on the highly homologous insulin receptor kinase, which was assayed for comparison. This reciprocal influence of physiologically relevant doses of hydrogen peroxide may have important implications on signal transduction of the closely related receptors for insulin and IGF-1.  相似文献

Insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) act on highly homologous receptors, yet in vivo elicit distinct effects on metabolism and growth. To investigate how the insulin and IGF-1 receptors exert specificity in their biological responses, we assessed their role in the regulation of gene expression using three experimental paradigms: 1) preadipocytes before and after differentiation into adipocytes that express both receptors, but at different ratios; 2) insulin receptor (IR) or IGF1R knock-out preadipocytes that only express the complimentary receptor; and 3) IR/IGF1R double knock-out (DKO) cells reconstituted with the IR, IGF1R, or both. In wild-type preadipocytes, which express predominantly IGF1R, microarray analysis revealed ∼500 IGF-1 regulated genes (p < 0.05). The largest of these were confirmed by quantitative PCR, which also revealed that insulin produced a similar effect, but with a smaller magnitude of response. After differentiation, when IR levels increase and IGF1R decrease, insulin became the dominant regulator of each of these genes. Measurement of the 50 most highly regulated genes by quantitative PCR did not reveal a single gene regulated uniquely via the IR or IGF1R using cells expressing exclusively IGF-1 or insulin receptors. Insulin and IGF-1 dose responses from 1 to 100 nm in WT, IRKO, IGFRKO, and DKO cells re-expressing IR, IGF1R, or both showed that insulin and IGF-1 produced effects in proportion to the concentration of ligand and the specific receptor on which they act. Thus, IR and IGF1R act as identical portals to the regulation of gene expression, with differences between insulin and IGF-1 effects due to a modulation of the amplitude of the signal created by the specific ligand-receptor interaction.  相似文献

NVP-AEW541, a specific ATP-competitive inhibitor of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R) tyrosine kinase, has been reported to interfere with tumor growth in various tumor transplantation models. We have assessed the efficacy of NVP-AEW541 in repressing tumor growth and tumor progression in the Rip1Tag2 transgenic mouse model of pancreatic β-cell carcinogenesis. In addition, we have tested NVP-AEW541 in Rip1Tag2;RipIGF1R double-transgenic mice which show accelerated tumor growth and increased tumor malignancy compared with Rip1Tag2 single-transgenic mice. Previously, we have shown that high levels of IGF-2, a high-affinity ligand for IGF1R, are required for Rip1Tag2 tumor cell survival and tumor growth. Unexpectedly, treatment of Rip1Tag2 mice with NVP-AEW541 in prevention and intervention trials neither did affect tumor growth nor tumor cell proliferation and apoptosis. Yet, it significantly repressed progression to tumor malignancy, that is, the rate of the transition from differentiated adenoma to invasive carcinoma. Treatment of Rip1Tag2;RipIGF1R double-transgenic mice resulted in moderately reduced tumor volumes and increased rates of tumor cell apoptosis. Sustained expression of IGF-2 and of the IGF-2-binding form of insulin receptor (IR-A) in tumor cells suggests a compensatory role of IR-A upon IGF1R blockade. The results indicate that inhibition of IGF1R alone is not sufficient to efficiently block insulinoma growth and imply an overlapping role of IGF1R and insulin receptor in executing mitogenic and survival stimuli elicited by IGF-2. The reduction of tumor invasion upon IGF1R blockade on the other hand indicates a critical function of IGF1R signaling for the acquisition of a malignant phenotype.  相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor types 1 and 2 (IGF-1; IGF-2) and insulin-like peptides are all members of the insulin superfamily of peptide hormones but bind to several distinct classes of membrane receptor. Like the insulin receptor, the IGF-1 receptor is a heterotetrameric receptor tyrosine kinase, whereas the IGF-2/ mannose 6-phosphate receptor is a single transmembrane domain protein that is thought to function primarily as clearance receptors. We recently reported that IGF-1 and IGF-2 stimulate the ERK1/2 cascade by triggering sphingosine kinase-dependent "transactivation" of G protein-coupled sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors. To determine which IGF receptors mediate this effect, we tested seven insulin family peptides, IGF-1, IGF-2, insulin, and insulin-like peptides 3, 4, 6, and 7, for the ability to activate ERK1/2 in HEK293 cells. Only IGF-1 and IGF-2 potently activated ERK1/2. Although IGF-2 was predictably less potent than IGF-1 in activating the IGF-1 receptor, they were equipotent stimulators of ERK1/2. Knockdown of IGF-1 receptor expression by RNA interference reduced the IGF-1 response to a greater extent than the IGF-2 response, suggesting that IGF-2 did not signal exclusively via the IGF-1 receptor. In contrast, IGF-2 receptor knockdown markedly reduced IGF-2-stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation, with no effect on the IGF-1 response. As observed previously, both the IGF-1 and the IGF-2 responses were sensitive to pertussis toxin and the sphingosine kinase inhibitor, dimethylsphingosine. These data indicate that endogenous IGF-1 and IGF-2 receptors can independently initiate ERK1/2 signaling and point to a potential physiologic role for IGF-2 receptors in the cellular response to IGF-2.  相似文献

We obtained 20 mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for human type I insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptors, using transfected cells expressing high levels of receptors (IGF-1R/3T3 cells) as immunogen. The antibodies immunoprecipitated receptor.125I-IGF-I complexes and biosynthetically labeled receptors from IGF-1R/3T3 cells but did not react with human insulin receptors or rat type I IGF receptors. Several antibodies stimulated DNA synthesis in IGF-1R/3T3 cells, but the maximum stimulation was only 25% of that produced by IGF-I. The antibodies fell into seven groups recognizing distinct epitopes and with different effects on receptor function. All the antibodies reacted with the extracellular portion of the receptor, and epitopes were localized to specific domains by investigating their reaction with a series of chimeric IGF/insulin receptor constructs. Binding of IGF-I was inhibited up to 90% by antibody 24-60 reacting in the region 184-283, and by antibody 24-57 reacting in the region 440-586. IGF-I binding was stimulated up to 2.5-fold by antibodies 4-52 and 16-13 reacting in the region 62-184, and by antibody 26-3 reacting downstream of 283. The latter two groups of antibodies also dramatically stimulated insulin binding to intact IGF-1R/3T3 cells (by up to 50-fold), and potentiated insulin stimulation of DNA synthesis. Scatchard analysis indicated that in the presence of these antibodies, the affinity of the type I IGF receptor for insulin was comparable with that of the insulin receptor. These data indicate that regions both within and outside the cysteine-rich domain of the receptor alpha-subunit are important in determining the affinity and specificity of ligand binding. These antibodies promise to be valuable tools in resolving issues of IGF-I receptor heterogeneity and in studying the structure and function of classical type I receptors and insulin/IGF receptor hybrids.  相似文献

Growth of the fetal heart involves cardiomyocyte enlargement, division, and maturation. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is implicated in many aspects of growth and is likely to be important in developmental heart growth. IGF-1 stimulates the IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R) and downstream signaling pathways, including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K). We hypothesized that IGF-1 stimulates cardiomyocyte proliferation and enlargement through stimulation of the ERK cascade and stimulates cardiomyocyte differentiation through the PI3K cascade. In vivo administration of Long R3 IGF-1 (LR3 IGF-1) did not stimulate cardiomyocyte hypertrophy but led to a decreased percentage of cells that were binucleated in vivo. In culture, LR3 IGF-1 increased myocyte bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) uptake by three- to five-fold. The blockade of either ERK or PI3K signaling (by UO-126 or LY-294002, respectively) completely abolished BrdU uptake stimulated by LR3 IGF-1. LR3 IGF-1 did not increase footprint area, but as expected, phenylephrine stimulated an increase in binucleated cardiomyocyte size. We conclude that 1) IGF-1 through IGF1R stimulates cardiomyocyte division in vivo; hyperplastic growth is the most likely explanation of IGF-1 stimulated heart growth in vivo; 2) IGF-1 through IGF1R does not stimulate binucleation in vitro or in vivo; 3) IGF-1 through IGF1R does not stimulate hypertrophy either in vivo or in vitro; and 4) IGF-1 through IGF1R requires both ERK and PI3K signaling for proliferation of near-term fetal sheep cardiomyocytes in vitro.  相似文献

Interest in the role of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis in growth control and carcinogenesis has recently been increased by the finding of elevated serum insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) levels in association with three of the most prevalent cancers in the United States: prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. IGFs serve as endocrine, autocrine, and paracrine stimulators of mitogenesis, survival, and cellular transformation. These actions are mediated through the type 1 IGF-receptor (IGF-1R), a tyrosine kinase that resembles the insulin receptor. The availability of free IGF for interaction with the IGF-1R is modulated by the insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs). IGFBPs, especially IGFBP-3, also have IGF-independent effects on cell growth. IGF-independent growth inhibition by IGFBP-3 is believed to occur through IGFBP-3-specific cell surface association proteins or receptors and involves nuclear translocation. IGFBP-3-mediated apoptosis is controlled by numerous cell cycle regulators in both normal and disease processes. IGFBP activity is also regulated by IGFBP proteases, which affect the relative affinities of IGFBPs, IGFs and IGF-1R. Perturbations in each level of the IGF axis have been implicated in cancer formation and progression in various cell types.  相似文献

Chimeric insulin/insulin-like growth factor-1 receptors and insulin receptor alpha-subunit point mutants were characterized with respect to their binding properties for insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and their ability to translate ligand interaction into tyrosine kinase activation in intact cells. We found that replacement of the amino-terminal 137 amino acids of the insulin receptor (IR) with the corresponding 131 amino acids of the IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) resulted in loss of affinity for both ligands. Further replacement of the adjacent cysteine region with IGF-1R sequences fully reconstituted affinity for IGF-1, but only marginally for insulin. Unexpectedly, replacement of the IR cysteine-rich domain alone by IGF-1R sequences created a high affinity receptor for both insulin and IGF-1. The binding characteristics of all receptor chimeras reflected the potential of both ligands to regulate the receptor tyrosine kinase activity in intact cells. Our chimeric receptor data, in conjunction with IR amino-terminal domain point mutants, strongly suggest major contributions of structural determinants in both amino- and carboxyl-terminal IR alpha-subunit regions for the formation of the insulin-binding pocket, whereas, surprisingly, the residues defining IGF-1 binding are present predominantly in the cysteine-rich domain of the IGF-1R.  相似文献

Protein synthesis in rat L6 myoblasts is stimulated and protein breakdown inhibited in a co-ordinate manner by insulin-like growth factors (IGF) or insulin. For both processes, bovine IGF-1 was somewhat more potent than human IGF-1, which was effective at a tenth the concentration of insulin, rat IGF-2 or human IGF-2. A similar order of potency is noted when DNA synthesis or protein accumulation is monitored over a 24 h period, but between 20- and 50-fold higher concentrations of each growth factor are required than those needed to produce effects in the 4 h protein-synthesis or -breakdown measurements. Binding experiments with labelled human or bovine IGF-1 as ligand demonstrated competition at concentrations of IGF-2, especially human IGF-2, lower than that of either IGF-1 preparation. This pattern was much more pronounced when the radioligand was either human IGF-2 or rat IGF-2. Insulin competed 10-15% for the binding of labelled IGF-1, but not at all with labelled IGF-2. Ligand-receptor cross-linking experiments showed that labelled bovine IGF-1 bound approximately equally to the type 1 IGF receptor (Mr 130000 after reduction) and to the type 2 IGF receptor (Mr 270000 after reduction), and that unlabelled IGF-1 competed equally with radioligand binding to both receptors. On the other hand, rat IGF-2 competed more effectively for binding to the type-2 receptor, and insulin competed only for binding to the type-1 receptor. Further cross-linking experiments with rat IGF-2 as radioligand demonstrated binding only to the type-2 receptor and to proteins with Mr values after reduction of 230000 and 200000. This binding was prevented by high rat IGF-2 concentrations, less effectively by bovine IGF-1 and not at all by insulin. The apparently conflicting biological potencies and receptor binding of the different growth factors can be explained if all the biological actions are mediated via the type-1 IGF receptor, rather than through the abundant type-2 receptor.  相似文献

The type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) is often overexpressed on tumor cells and is believed to play an important role in anchorage-independent proliferation. Additionally, cell culture studies have indicated that IGF-1R confers increased resistance to apoptosis caused by radiation or chemotherapeutic agents. Thus, inhibitors of the intracellular kinase domain of this receptor may have utility for the clinical treatment of cancer. As part of an effort to develop clinically useful inhibitors of IGF-1R kinase, a novel class of pyrrole-5-carboxaldehyde compounds was investigated. The compounds exhibited selectivity against the closely related insulin receptor kinase intrinsically and in cell-based assays. The inhibitors formed a reversible, covalent adduct at the kinase active site, and treatment of such adducts with sodium borohydride irreversibly inactivated the enzyme. Analysis of a tryptic digest of a covalently modified IGF-1R kinase fragment revealed that the active site Lys1003 had been reductively alkylated with the aldehyde inhibitor. Reductive alkylation of the insulin receptor kinase with one of these inhibitors led to a similarly inactivated enzyme which was examined by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure confirmed the modification of the active site lysine side chain and revealed details of the key interactions between the inhibitor and enzyme.  相似文献

Substrate competitive inhibitors of IGF-1 receptor kinase   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Blum G  Gazit A  Levitzki A 《Biochemistry》2000,39(51):15705-15712
IGF-1 and its receptor play a pivotal role in many cancers, and therefore, IGF-1R is an attractive target for the design of inhibitors. In this communication, we report on a number of lead compounds for inhibitors of the isolated IGF-1R kinase. The search for these compounds utilized two novel in vitro assays and was aided by the knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of the insulin receptor kinase domain, which is 84% homologous to the IGF-1R kinase domain. The most potent inhibitor found in these assays was tyrphostin AG 538, with an IC(50) = 400 nM. In computer modeling, AG 538 was placed in the kinase domain of the insulin receptor and was able to sit in place of tyrosines 1158 and 1162, which undergo autophosphorylation. Experimentally it is indeed found that AG 538 does not compete with ATP but competes with the IGF-1R substrate. We prepared I-OMe AG 538, which is more hydrophobic and less sensitive to oxidation than AG 538. Both AG 538 and I-OMe AG 538 inhibit IGR-1R autophosphorylation in intact cells in a dose-dependent manner but I-OMe-AG 538 is superior, probably because of its enhanced hydrophobic nature. Both compounds inhibit the activation of the downstream targets PKB and Erk2. These findings suggest that AG 538 and I-OMe-AG 538 can serve as a lead compound for the development of substrate competitive inhibitors of the IGF-1R. The possible advantage of substrate competitive inhibitors vis-à-vis ATP competitive inhibitors is discussed.  相似文献

Several recent studies have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) activation is abolished by pertussis toxin, suggesting that trimeric G proteins of the G(i) class are novel cellular targets of the IGF-1 signaling pathway. We report here that the intracellular domain of the Xenopus IGF-1 receptor is capable of binding to the Xenopus homolog of mammalian GIPC, a PDZ domain-containing protein previously identified as a binding partner of G(i)-specific GAP (RGS-GAIP). Binding of xGIPC to xIGF-1 receptor is independent of the kinase activity of the receptor and appears to require the PDZ domain of xGIPC. Injection of two C-terminal truncation mutants that retained the PDZ domain blocked IGF-1-induced Xenopus MAP kinase activation and oocyte maturation. While full-length xGIPC injection did not significantly alter insulin response, it greatly enhanced human RGS-GAIP in stimulating the insulin response in frog oocytes. This represents the first demonstration that GIPC x RGS-GAIP complex acts positively in IGF-1 receptor signal transduction.  相似文献

The specificity of the human IGF-2 receptor   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The specificity of the type 2 insulinlike growth factor (IGF) receptor is evaluated in human placenta membranes and the human cell line K562. K562 cells have type 2 but not type 1 IGF receptors. Native IGF-2 isolated from human plasma and synthetic IGF-2 were equipotent in competing with labeled IGF-2 in both systems. Pure IGF-1 isolated from plasma, synthetic IGF-1 and recombinant IGF-1 could not crossreact with the type 2 IGF receptor in concentrations up to 1 microgram/ml in both systems. Studies on placenta membrane were done in the presence of 300 ug/ml insulin to block the type 1 IGF receptors. It is concluded that IGF-1, as well as insulin, cannot crossreact with the human type 2 IGF receptor.  相似文献

Vascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Oxidative stress can cause endothelial cell apoptosis. Low insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been linked to adverse risk profile and increased vascular disease incidence. Since IGF-1 acts as an important survival factor for multiple cell types, we undertook this study to investigate whether IGF-1 favorably affects oxidative-stress mediated apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells. Exposure to hydrogen peroxide induced apoptotic changes (e.g. DNA fragmentation, altered mitochondrial membrane potential and caspase-3 activity) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in a time dependent manner. Addition of IGF-1 blocked the oxidative-stress effect parallel to IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) expression, and silencing the IGF-1R with small interference RNA attenuated the IGF-1 influence. Our findings show that enhanced IGF-1 signaling inhibits oxidative-stress induced apoptosis in HUVECs by reducing mitochondrial dysfunction. Specifically the protective mechanism of IGF-1 involves preserving the mitochondrial membrane potential, maintaining the mitochondrial retention of cytochrome-c, and reducing caspase-3 activity. These results may have therapeutic implications in preventing/reducing vascular disease associated endothelial dysfunction.  相似文献

Dual inhibitors of the closely related receptor tyrosine kinases insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) and insulin receptor (IR) are promising therapeutic agents in cancer. Here, we report an unusually selective class of dual inhibitors of IGF-1R and IR identified in a parallel screen of known kinase inhibitors against a panel of 300 human protein kinases. Biochemical and structural studies indicate that this class achieves its high selectivity by binding to the ATP-binding pocket of inactive, unphosphorylated IGF-1R/IR and stabilizing the activation loop in a native-like inactive conformation. One member of this compound family was originally reported as an inhibitor of the serine/threonine kinase ERK, a kinase that is distinct in the structure of its unphosphorylated/inactive form from IR/IGF-1R. Remarkably, this compound binds to the ATP-binding pocket of ERK in an entirely different conformation to that of IGF-1R/IR, explaining the potency against these two structurally distinct kinase families. These findings suggest a novel approach to polypharmacology in which two or more unrelated kinases are inhibited by a single compound that targets different conformations of each target kinase.  相似文献

Tyrosine kinase activity of brain insulin and IGF-1 receptors   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Lectin-purified rat brain preparations demonstrate specific [125I]insulin and [125I]-IGF-1 binding. Insulin-stimulable tyrosine kinase activity as measured by exogenous substrate phosphorylation was present in brain and liver lectin purified preparations with the delta kinase activity/B/F of brain approximately 2.5 fold greater than that of liver. Insulin-stimulable tyrosine kinase activity was abolished in liver but decreased by only approximately 50 percent in brain after immuno-depletion with antiserum which recognizes insulin but not IGF-1 receptors. Insulin and IGF-1 dose responses for phosphorylation of the immunodepleted brain preparations suggested that the remaining tyrosine kinase activity was IGF-1 receptor mediated. Thus, functional IGF-1 receptors are present in rat brain, and the doses of insulin typically used to evaluate insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity will stimulate IGF-1 receptor tyrosine kinase activity as well.  相似文献

We have derived skeletal muscle cell lines from wild-type (wt) and insulin receptor (IR) knockout mice to unravel the metabolic potential of IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Both wt and IR(-/-) myoblasts differentiated into myotubes with similar patterns of expression of muscle-specific genes such as MyoD, myogenin and MLC1A indicating that IR is not required for this process. Binding of 125I-IGF-1 on wt and IR(-/-) myotubes was similar showing that IGF-1R was not upregulated in the absence of IR. Stimulation of IR(-/-) myotubes with IGF-1 (10(-10) to 10(-7) M) increased glucose uptake and incorporation into glycogen, induced IRS-1 phosphorylation and activated PI 3-kinase and MAP kinase, two enzymes of major signaling pathways. These effects were comparable to those obtained with wt myotubes using insulin or IGF-1 or with IR(-/-) myotubes using insulin at higher concentrations. This study provides a direct evidence that IGF-1R can represent an alternative receptor for metabolic signaling in muscle cells.  相似文献

Insulin resistance and hypertension have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease; however, little is known about the roles of insulin and mechanical force in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) remodeling. We investigated the contribution of mechanical stretch to insulin-induced VSMC proliferation. Thymidine incorporation was stimulated by insulin in stretched VSMCs, but not in un-stretched VSMCs. Insulin increased 2-deoxy-glucose incorporation in both stretched and un-stretched VSMCs. Mechanical stretch augmented insulin-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and Akt phosphorylation. Inhibitors of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor tyrosine kinase and Src attenuated insulin-induced ERK and Akt phosphorylation, as well as thymidine incorporation, whereas 2-deoxy-glucose incorporation was not affected by these inhibitors. Moreover, stretch augmented insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 receptor expression, although it did not alter the expression of insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1. Insulin-induced ERK and Akt activation, and thymidine incorporation were inhibited by siRNA for the IGF-1 receptor. Mechanical stretch augments insulin-induced VSMC proliferation via upregulation of IGF-1 receptor, and downstream Src/EGF receptor-mediated ERK and Akt activation. Similar to in vitro experiment, IGF-1 receptor expression was also augmented in hypertensive rats. These results provide a basis for clarifying the molecular mechanisms of vascular remodeling in hypertensive patients with hyperinsulinemia.  相似文献

Annexin II is secreted into the extracellular environment, where, via interactions with specific proteases and extracellular matrix proteins, it participates in plasminogen activation, cell adhesion, and tumor metastasis and invasion. However, mechanisms regulating annexin II transport across the cellular membrane are unknown. In this study, we used coimmunoprecipitation to show that Annexin-II was bound to insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptors in PC12 cells and NIH-3T3 cells overexpressing insulin (NIH-3T3(IR)) or IGF-1 receptor (NIH-3T3(IGF-1R)). Stimulation of insulin and IGF-1 receptors by insulin caused a temporary dissociation of annexin II from these receptors, which was accompanied by an increased amount of extracellular annexin II detected in the media of PC12, NIH-3T3(IR), and NIH-3T3(IGF-1R) cells but not in that of untransfected NIH-3T3 cells. Activation of a different growth factor receptor, the platelet-derived growth factor receptor, did not produce such results. Tyrphostin AG1024, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of insulin and IGF-1 receptor, was shown to inhibit annexin II secretion along with reduced receptor phosphorylation. Inhibitors of a few downstream signaling enzymes including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, pp60c-Src, and protein kinase C had no effect on insulin-induced annexin II secretion, suggesting a possible direct link between receptor activation and annexin II secretion. Immunocytochemistry revealed that insulin also induced transport of the membrane-bound form of annexin II to the outside layer of the cell membrane and appeared to promote cell aggregation. These results suggest that the insulin receptor and its signaling pathways may participate in molecular mechanisms mediating annexin II secretion.  相似文献

To investigate the interaction of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) ligands with the insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R), we have generated two soluble variants of the IGF-1R. We have recombinantly expressed the ectodomain of IGF-1R or fused this domain to the constant domain from the Fc fragment of mouse immunoglobulin. The ligand binding properties of these soluble IGF-1Rs for IGF-I and IGF-II were investigated using conventional ligand competition assays and BIAcore biosensor technology. In ligand competition assays, the soluble IGF-1Rs both bound IGF-I with similar affinities and a 5-fold lower affinity than that seen for the wild type receptor. In addition, both soluble receptors bound IGF-II with similar affinities to the wild type receptor. BIAcore analyses showed that both soluble IGF-1Rs exhibited similar ligand-specific association and dissociation rates for IGF-I and for IGF-II. The soluble IGF-1R proteins both exhibited negative cooperativity for IGF-I, IGF-II, and the 24-60 antibody, which binds to the IGF-1R cysteine-rich domain. We conclude that the addition of the self-associating Fc domain to the IGF-1R ectodomain does not affect ligand binding affinity, which is in contrast to the soluble ectodomain of the IR. This study highlights some significant differences in ligand binding modes between the IGF-1R and the insulin receptor, which may ultimately contribute to the different biological activities conferred by the two receptors.  相似文献
