Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a multifunctional cytokine involved in differentiation, growth, and survival of mesenchymal cells while inhibiting growth/survival of most other cell types. The mechanism(s) of pro-survival signaling by TGF-beta1 in mesenchymal cells is unclear. In this report, we demonstrate that TGF-beta1 protects against serum deprivation-induced apoptosis of mesenchymal cells isolated from patients with acute lung injury and of normal human fetal lung fibroblasts (IMR-90). TGF-beta receptor(s)-activated signaling in these cells involves rapid activation of the Smad and p38 MAPK pathways within minutes of TGF-beta1 treatment followed by a more delayed activation of the pro-survival phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt pathway. Pharmacological inhibition of p38 MAPK with SB203580 or expression of a p38 kinase-deficient mutant protein inhibits TGF-beta1-induced PKB/Akt phosphorylation. Conditioned medium from TGF-beta1-treated cells rapidly induces PKB/Akt activation in an SB203580- and suramin-sensitive manner, suggesting p38 MAPK-dependent production of a secreted growth factor that activates this pro-survival pathway by an autocrine/paracrine mechanism. Inhibition of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-PKB/Akt pathway blocks TGF-beta1-induced resistance to apoptosis. These results demonstrate the activation of a novel TGF-beta1-activated pro-survival/anti-apoptotic signaling pathway in mesenchymal cells/fibroblasts that may explain cell-specific actions of TGF-beta1 and provide mechanistic insights into its pro-fibrotic and tumor-promoting effects. 相似文献

Human epidermis marks the interface between internal and external environments with the major task being to maintain body hydration. Alternating exposure of skin to a dry or humid environment is likely to cause changes in the epidermal water gradient resulting in osmotic alterations of epidermal keratinocytes. The present in vitro approach studied the effect of hypotonicity on cell-cell contact. It was demonstrated that hypotonic stress applied to human epithelial cells (HaCaT, A-431) induced upregulation of E-cadherin at both, the protein and mRNA level. 5'-deletional mutants of the E-cadherin promoter identified an element ranging from -53 to +31 that conveyed strong transactivation under hypotonic stress. In order to define relevant upstream regulators members of the MAP kinase family, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and protein kinase B/Akt (PKB/Akt) were investigated. Hypotonic conditions led to a fast activation of ERK1/2, SAPK/JNK, p38, EGFR and PKB/Akt with distinct activation patterns. Experiments using specific inhibitors showed that p38 contributes to the E-cadherin transactivation under hypotonic conditions. Further upstream, adhesion was found to be a prerequisite for E-cadherin transactivation in this model. In summary, the present study provides evidence that E-cadherin is an osmo-sensitive gene that responds to hypotonic stress. The function of this regulation may be found in morphological changes induced by cell swelling. It is likely that induction of E-cadherin contributes to the stabilization between adjacent cells in order to withstand the physical forces induced by hypotonicity. 相似文献

The protein phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A activates PKB/Akt to ~50% of the activity induced by insulin-like growth factor
1 (IGF1) in HeLa cells promoting an evident increased phosphorylation of Ser473 despite the apparent lack of Thr308 phosphorylation
of PKB. Nevertheless, calyculin A-induced activation of PKB seems to be dependent on basal levels of Thr308 phosphorylation,
since a PDK1-dependent mechanism is required for calyculin A-dependent PKB activation by using embryonic stem cells derived
from PDK1 wild-type and knockout mice. Data shown suggest that calyculin A-induced phosphorylation of Ser473 was largely blocked
by LY294002 and SB-203580 inhibitors, indicating that both PI3-kinase/TORC2-dependent and SAPK2/p38-dependent protein kinases
contributed to phosphorylation of Ser473 in calyculin A-treated cells. Additionally, our results suggest that calyculin A
blocks the IGF1-dependent Thr308 phosphorylation and activation of PKB, likely due to an enhanced Ser612 phosphorylation of
insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1), which can be inhibitory to its activation of PI3-kinase, a requirement for PDK1-induced
Thr308 phosphorylation and IGF1-dependent activation of PKB. Our data suggest that PKB activity is most dependent on the level
of Ser473 phosphorylation rather than Thr308, but basal levels of Thr308 phosphorylation are a requirement. Additionally,
we suggest here that calyculin A regulates the IGF1-dependent PKB activation by controlling the PI3-kinase-associated IRS1
Ser/Thr phosphorylation levels. 相似文献

Protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) is a serine-threonine kinase functioning downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3 kinase)
in response to mitogen or growth factor stimulation. In several cell types, it plays an important anti-apoptotic role. TPA
is a potent regulator of the growth of many different cell types. Here, we detected that TPA could induce cell apoptosis in
the gastric cancer cell line, BGC-823. We also found that TPA inhibited the expression of PKB/Akt in a TPA concentration-
and time-dependent manner. Furthermore, TPA inhibited the phosphorylation of PKB at Ser473, but did not affect the phosphorylation
of Thr308. It only attenuated the expression of PKB/Akt and the phosphorylation of Ser473 in the cell nucleus, whereas it
did not change the PKB/Akt distribution in BGC-823 cells. These results suggest that PKB/Akt inhibition by TPA may be the
important factor in the mechanism of effect of TPA on gastric cell lines. 相似文献

The v-Crk oncogene encodes an adaptor protein containing an SH2 domain and an SH3 domain. v-Crk-transformed fibroblast cells display enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation levels, and the v-Crk protein localizes in focal adhesions, suggesting that transformation may be due to enhanced focal complex signaling. Here we investigated the mechanism of transformation and found that v-Crk-transformed NIH 3T3 cells display growth rates and serum requirements similar to control cells. However, v-Crk enhanced survival in conditions of serum starvation. Both an intact SH2 and SH3 domain are required; moreover, SH2 mutants displayed dominant interfering properties, enhancing cell death. Using other cell death-inducing stimuli, it appeared that v-Crk in general inhibits apoptosis and enhances cell survival. In search of the signaling pathways involved, we found that v-Crk-transformed cells show constitutively higher levels of phospho-protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt and PKB/Akt activity, especially in conditions of serum starvation. These data strongly suggest involvement of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/PKB survival pathway in the v-Crk-induced protection against apoptosis. In accordance, inhibition of this pathway by wortmannin or LY924002 reduced protection against starvation-induced apoptosis. In addition to the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/PKB pathway, a MEK-dependent pathway and an unknown additional pathway are also implicated in resistance against apoptosis. Activation of survival pathways may be the most important function of v-Crk in its oncogenic properties. 相似文献

Although sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a well-known mitogen, it has only recently been demonstrated that S1P is able to inhibit cell proliferation in human epidermal keratinocytes and hepatic myofibroblasts. In the present study, we investigated the possible signalling pathways involved in the growth inhibition of human keratinocytes. Our results show that S1P potently inhibits keratinocyte proliferation, and that this leads to the inhibition of DNA synthesis. Interestingly, the prolonged activation of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) and the transient inactivation of Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) were also observed in concert with the inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation by S1P. To verify further the antiproliferative action of S1P, we examined changes in cell cycle-related proteins. S1P inhibited cyclin D(2) synthesis but stimulated p21(WAF1/CIP1) (p21) and p27(KIP1) (p27) synthesis; all are inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase. Furthermore, we found that the growth inhibition by S1P was in part abolished by pertussis toxin (PTX) treatment, but that ERK activation and Akt/PKB inhibition were not abrogated, suggesting that S1P functions both intracellularly, as a second messenger, and extracellularly, as a ligand for cell surface receptors. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a well-established human keratinocyte mitogen and is known to stimulate Akt/PKB in various cell types. In the present study, S1P was found to inhibit the keratinocyte proliferation and Akt/PKB activation induced by IGF-I. Our results suggest that S1P may play an important role in the negative regulation of keratinocyte proliferation by inhibiting the Akt/PKB pathway. 相似文献

Mechanical stress is known to modulate fundamental events such as cell life and death. Mechanical stretch in particular has been identified as a positive regulator of proliferation in skin keratinocytes and other cell systems. In the present study it was investigated whether antiapoptotic signaling is also stimulated by mechanical stretch. It was demonstrated that mechanical stretch rapidly induced the phosphorylation of the proto-oncogene protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt at both phosphorylation sites (serine 473/threonine 308) in different epithelial cells (HaCaT, A-431, and human embryonic kidney-293). Blocking of phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase by selective inhibitors (LY-294002 and wortmannin) abrogated the stretch-induced PKB/Akt phosphorylation. Furthermore mechanical stretch stimulated phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the formation of EGFR membrane clusters. Functional blocking of EGFR phosphorylation by either selective inhibitors (AG1478 and PD168393) or dominant-negative expression suppressed stretch-induced PKB/Akt phosphorylation. Finally, the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-R) was shown to induce positive transactivation of EGFR in response to cell stretch. These findings define a novel signaling pathway of mechanical stretch, namely the activation of PKB/Akt by transactivation of EGFR via angiotensin II type 1 receptor. Evidence is provided that stretch-induced activation of PKB/Akt protects cells against induced apoptosis. 相似文献

Treatment of Jurkat cells with specific inhibitors of protein kinase CK2 induces apoptosis. Here we provide evidence that the anti-apoptotic effect of CK2 can be at least partially mediated by upregulation of the Akt/PKB pathway. Such a conclusion is based on the following observations: (1) inhibition of CK2 by cell treatment with two structurally unrelated CK2 inhibitors induces downregulation of Akt/PKB, as judged from decreased phosphorylation of its physiological targets, and immunoprecipitate kinase assay; (2) similar results are observed upon reduction of CK2 catalytic subunit by the RNA-interference technique; (3) Akt/PKB Ser129 is phosphorylated by CK2 in vitro and in vivo; (4) such a phosphorylation of activated Akt/PKB correlates with a further increase in catalytic activity. These data disclose an unanticipated mechanism by which constitutive phosphorylation by CK2 may be required for maximal activation of Akt/PKB. 相似文献

The anti-apoptotic effect of Notch-1 requires p56lck-dependent, Akt/PKB-mediated signaling in T cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The Notch family of transmembrane receptors have been implicated in a variety of cellular decisions in different cell types. Here we investigate the mechanism underlying Notch-1-mediated anti-apoptotic function in T cells using model cell lines as the experimental system. Ectopic expression of the intracellular domain of Notch-1/activated Notch (AcN1) increases expression of anti-apoptotic proteins of the inhibitors of apoptosis (IAP) family, the Bcl-2 family, and the FLICE-like inhibitor protein (FLIP) and inhibits death triggered by multiple stimuli that activate intrinsic or extrinsic pathways of apoptosis in human and murine T cell lines. Numb inhibited the AcN1-dependent induction of anti-apoptotic proteins and anti-apoptotic function. Using pharmacological inhibitors and dominant-negative approaches, we describe a functional role for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-dependent activation of the serine-threonine kinase Akt/PKB in the regulation of AcN1-mediated anti-apoptotic function and the expression of FLIP and IAP family proteins. Using a cell line deficient for the T cell-specific, Src family protein, the tyrosine kinase p56(lck) and by reconstitution approaches we demonstrate that p56(lck) is required for the Notch-1-mediated activation of Akt/PKB function. Furthermore, the Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor, PP2, abrogated ectopically expressed AcN1-mediated anti-apoptotic function and phosphorylation of p56(lck). We present evidence that endogenous Notch-1 associates with p56(lck) and PI3K but that Akt/PKB does not co-immunoprecipitate with the Notch1.p56(lck).PI3K complex. Finally, we demonstrate that the Notch1.p56(lck).PI3K complex is present in primary T cells that have been activated in vitro and sustained in culture with the cytokine interleukin-2. 相似文献

Involvement of Akt2/protein kinase B β (PKBβ) in the 8‐Cl‐cAMP‐induced cancer cell growth inhibition
Ki Young Choi Young Ho Ahn Hae Won Ahn Young Jun Cho Seung Hwan Hong 《Journal of cellular physiology》2013,228(4):890-902
8‐chloro‐cyclic AMP (8‐Cl‐cAMP), which induces differentiation, growth inhibition, and apoptosis in various cancer cells, has been investigated as a putative anti‐cancer drug. However, the exact mechanism of 8‐Cl‐cAMP functioning in cancer cells is not fully understood. Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) genes (Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3) encode enzymes belonging to the serine/threonine‐specific protein kinase family. It has been suggested that Akt/PKB enhances cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis. Recently, we showed that 8‐Cl‐cAMP and 5‐aminoimidazole‐4‐carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR) inhibited cancer cell growth through the activation of AMPK and p38 MAPK. Therefore, we anticipated that the phosphorylation of Akt/PKB would be decreased upon treatment with 8‐Cl‐cAMP. However, treatment with 8‐Cl‐cAMP and AICAR induced the phosphorylation of Akt/PKB, which was inhibited by ABT702 (an adenosine kinase inhibitor) and NBTI (an adenosine transporter inhibitor). Furthermore, whereas Compound C (an AMPK inhibitor), AMPK‐DN (AMPK‐dominant negative) mutant, and SB203580 (a p38 MAPK inhibitor) did not block the 8‐Cl‐cAMP‐induced phosphorylation of Akt/PKB, TCN (an Akt1/2/3 specific inhibitor) and an Akt2/PKBβ‐targeted siRNA inhibited the 8‐Cl‐cAMP‐ and AICAR‐mediated phosphorylation of AMPK and p38 MAPK. TCN also reversed the growth inhibition mediated by 8‐Cl‐cAMP and AICAR. Moreover, an Akt1/PKBα‐targeted siRNA did not reduce the phosphorylation of AMPK and p38 MAPK after treatment with 8‐Cl‐cAMP. These results suggest that Akt2/PKBβ activation promotes the phosphorylation of AMPK and p38 MAPK during the 8‐Cl‐cAMP‐ and AICAR‐induced growth inhibition. J. Cell.

The phosphoinositide-3 kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt) pathway has a central role in cancer cell metabolism and proliferation. More importantly, it is one of the cardinal pro-survival pathways mediating resistance to apoptosis. The role of Akt in response to an energetic stress is presently unclear. Here, we show that Sestrin2 (Sesn2), also known as Hi95, a p53 target gene that protects cells against oxidative and genotoxic stresses, participates in the protective role of Akt in response to an energetic stress induced by 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG). Sesn2 is upregulated in response to an energetic stress such as 2-DG and metformin, and mediates the inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), the major cellular regulator of energy metabolism. The increase of Sesn2 is independent of p53 but requires the anti-apoptotic pathway, PI3K/Akt. Inhibition of Akt, as well as loss of Sesn2, sensitizes cells to 2-DG-induced apoptosis. In addition, the rescue of Sesn2 partially reverses the pro-apoptotic effects of 2-DG. In conclusion, we identify Sesn2 as a new energetic stress sensor, which appears to be protective against energetic stress-induced apoptosis that integrates the pro-survival function of Akt and the negative regulation of mTOR. 相似文献

PKB and the mitochondria: AKTing on apoptosis 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Cellular homeostasis depends upon the strict regulation of responses to external stimuli, such as signalling cascades triggered by nutrients and growth factors, and upon cellular metabolism. One of the major molecules coordinating complex signalling pathways is protein kinase B (PKB), a serine/threonine kinase also known as Akt. The number of substrates known to be phosphorylated by PKB and its interacting partners, as well as our broad understanding of how PKB is implicated in responses to growth factors, metabolic pathways, proliferation, and cell death via apoptosis is constantly increasing. Activated by the insulin/growth factor-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) cascade, PKB triggers events that promote cell survival and prevent apoptosis. It is also now widely accepted that mitochondria are not just suppliers of ATP, but that they participate in regulatory and signalling events, responding to multiple physiological inputs and genetic stresses, and regulate both cell proliferation and death. Thus, mitochondria are recognized as important players in apoptotic events and it is logical to predict some form of interplay with PKB. In this review, we will summarize mechanisms by which PKB mediates its anti-apoptotic activities in cells and survey recent developments in understanding mitochondrial dynamics and their role during apoptosis. 相似文献

Multipotent neural stem cells (NSCs) are competent for commitment to the oligodendrocyte (OL) lineage both in vitro and in vivo. We exploited this property to develop a rat neurospheres (NS)/oligospheres (OS)-based culture system to generate large numbers of highly enriched late OL progenitors (preOLs) and mature OLs (MatOLs). CNS neuroblastoma cell line B104-derived conditioned medium promoted the generation of nearly pure populations of preOLs from dissociated OS. The subsequent culture of preOLs with ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and 3,3',5'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T(3)) generated nearly pure populations of MatOLs. OL lineage specificity was confirmed by immunocytochemistry, quantitative RT-PCR and gene expression profiling, which demonstrated large differences between preOLs and MatOLs. The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are potent neuro-protective agents required for OL survival. We used this system to systematically define maturation-dependent changes in IGF signaling during the course of OL differentiation. The IGF-I and insulin receptors, insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and IRS-2, protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt and Janus kinase (JNK) were expressed at higher levels in NS and preOLs compared with OS and MatOLs. Erk expression increased markedly from NS to OS, decreased only partially upon commitment to preOLs, and, in MatOLs, returned to a low level similar to NS. IGF activation of the generally proliferative Erk pathway was gradually acquired during NSC differentiation, whereas IGF activation of the generally pro-survival, anti-apoptotic PI3K/PKB pathway was consistently robust at each developmental stage. 相似文献

This study was designed to elucidate the mechanisms leading to down-regulation of the Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) survival pathway during H2O2-induced cell death. H2O2 produced early activation of Akt/PKB and also DNA damage that was followed by stabilization of p53 levels, formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and generation of ceramide through activation of a glutathione-sensitive neutral sphingomyelinase. These events correlated with long term dephosphorylation and subsequent degradation of Akt. A membrane-targeted active Akt version attenuated apoptosis but not necrosis induced by H2O2 and was more resistant to dephosphorylation and proteolysis induced by apoptotic concentrations of H2O2. Proteolysis of Akt was prevented by exogenous addition of glutathione, indicating a role of ROS and ceramide in Akt degradation. However, Akt was degraded similarly in cells transfected with wild type and dominant negative p53 mutant, indicating that degradation of Akt under oxidative injury may be p53-independent. Specific inhibitors of caspase groups I and III prevented proteolysis of Akt/PKB and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in cells submitted to apoptotic but not necrotic H2O2 concentrations. Surprisingly, in caspase-3-deficient MCF-7 cells Akt was more sensitive to H2O2-induced degradation than the caspase-3 substrate poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Moreover, the Akt/PKB double mutant Akt(D108A,D119A), which is not cleaved by caspase-3, and a triple mutant (D453A,D455A,D456A), which lacks the consensus sequence for caspase-3 cleavage, were also degraded in H2O2-treated cells. Our results suggest that strong oxidants generate intracellular ROS and ceramide which in term lead to down-regulation of Akt by dephosphorylation and caspase-3-independent proteolysis. 相似文献

The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway tightly regulates adipose cell differentiation. Here we show that loss of Akt1/PKBα in primary mouse embryo fibroblast (MEF) cells results in a defect of adipocyte differentiation. Adipocyte differentiation in vitro and ex vivo was restored in cells lacking both Akt1/PKBα and Akt2/PKBβ by ectopic expression of Akt1/PKBα but not Akt2/PKBβ. Akt1/PKBα was found to be the major regulator of phosphorylation and nuclear export of FoxO1, whose presence in the nucleus strongly attenuates adipocyte differentiation. Differentiation-induced cell division was significantly abrogated in Akt1/PKBα-deficient cells, but was restored after forced expression of Akt1/PKBα. Moreover, expression of p27Kip1, an inhibitor of the cell cycle, was down regulated in an Akt1/PKBα-specific manner during adipocyte differentiation. Based on these data, we suggest that the Akt1/PKBα isoform plays a major role in adipocyte differentiation by regulating FoxO1 and p27Kip1. 相似文献

Apoptosis of VSMCs (vascular smooth-muscle cells) leads to features of atherosclerotic plaque instability. We have demonstrated previously that plaque-derived VSMCs have reduced IGF1 (insulin-like growth factor 1) signalling, resulting from a decrease in the expression of IGF1R (IGF1 receptor) compared with normal aortic VSMCs [Patel, Zhang, Siddle, Soos, Goddard, Weissberg and Bennett (2001) Circ. Res. 88, 895-902]. In the present study, we show that apoptosis induced by oxidative stress is inhibited by ectopic expression of IGF1R. Oxidative stress repressed IGF1R expression at multiple levels, and this was also blocked by mutant p53. Oxidative stress also induced p53 phosphorylation and apoptosis in VSMCs. p53 negatively regulated IGF1R promoter activity and expression and, consistent with this, p53-/- VSMCs demonstrated increased IGF1R expression, both in vitro and in advanced atherosclerotic plaques in vivo. Oxidative-stress-induced interaction of endogenous p53 with TBP (TATA-box-binding protein) was dependent on p53 phosphorylation. Oxidative stress also increased the association of p53 with HDAC1 (histone deacetylase 1). Trichostatin A, a specific HDAC inhibitor, or p300 overexpression relieved the repression of IGF1R following oxidative stress. Furthermore, acetylated histone-4 association with the IGF1R promoter was reduced in cells subjected to oxidative stress. These results suggest that oxidative-stress-induced repression of IGF1R is mediated by the association of phosphorylated p53 with the IGF1R promoter via TBP, and by the subsequent recruitment of chromatin-modifying proteins, such as HDAC1, to the IGF1R promoter-TBP-p53 complex. 相似文献

Stabilization of Mdm2 via decreased ubiquitination is mediated by protein kinase B/Akt-dependent phosphorylation 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Feng J Tamaskovic R Yang Z Brazil DP Merlo A Hess D Hemmings BA 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2004,279(34):35510-35517
The tumor suppressor p53 is commonly inhibited under conditions in which the phosphatidylinositide 3'-OH kinase/protein kinase B (PKB)Akt pathway is activated. Intracellular levels of p53 are controlled by the E3 ubiquitin ligase Mdm2. Here we show that PKB inhibits Mdm2 self-ubiquitination via phosphorylation of Mdm2 on Ser(166) and Ser(188). Stimulation of human embryonic kidney 293 cells with insulin-like growth factor-1 increased Mdm2 phosphorylation on Ser(166) and Ser(188) in a phosphatidylinositide 3'-OH kinase-dependent manner, and the treatment of both human embryonic kidney 293 and COS-1 cells with phosphatidylinositide 3'-OH kinase inhibitor LY-294002 led to proteasome-mediated Mdm2 degradation. Introduction of a constitutively active form of PKB together with Mdm2 into cells induced phosphorylation of Mdm2 at Ser(166) and Ser(188) and stabilized Mdm2 protein. Moreover, mouse embryonic fibroblasts lacking PKBalpha displayed reduced Mdm2 protein levels with a concomitant increase of p53 and p21(Cip1), resulting in strongly elevated apoptosis after UV irradiation. In addition, activation of PKB correlated with Mdm2 phosphorylation and stability in a variety of human tumor cells. These findings suggest that PKB plays a critical role in controlling of the Mdm2.p53 signaling pathway by regulating Mdm2 stability. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle expresses high levels of integrin-linked kinase (ILK), predominantly at myotendinous junctions (MTJs) and costameres. ILK binds the cytoplasmic domain of beta1 integrin and mediates phosphorylation of protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt, which in turn plays a central role during skeletal muscle regeneration. We show that mice with a skeletal muscle-restricted deletion of ILK develop a mild progressive muscular dystrophy mainly restricted to the MTJs with detachment of basement membranes and accumulation of extracellular matrix. Endurance exercise training enhances the defects at MTJs, leads to disturbed subsarcolemmal myofiber architecture, and abrogates phosphorylation of Ser473 as well as phosphorylation of Thr308 of PKB/Akt. The reduction in PKB/Akt activation is accompanied by an impaired insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) activation. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments reveal that the beta1 integrin subunit is associated with the IGF-1R in muscle cells. Our data identify the beta1 integrin-ILK complex as an important component of IGF-1R/insulin receptor substrate signaling to PKB/Akt during mechanical stress in skeletal muscle. 相似文献
