Previous studies suggest that regulation of hexose uptake in Chinese hamster ovary fibroblasts can occur by alterations in glucose transporter intrinsic activity without changes in cell surface transporter number (Harrison, S. A., Buxton, J. M., Helgerson, A. L., MacDonald, R. G., Chlapowski, F. J., Carruthers, A., and Czech, M. P. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 5793-5801). We tested this hypothesis using 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and adipocytes which exhibit 5-6-fold increases in 2-deoxyglucose or 3-O-methylglucose uptake when exposed to low micromolar concentrations of cadmium for 18 h. Cadmium treatment decreased the apparent Km of 3T3-L1 fibroblasts for 3-O-methylglucose influx from approximately 28 to 9 mM and increased the apparent Vmax by 2-3-fold. These fibroblasts lack the skeletal muscle/adipocyte-type (GLUT4) transporter and showed only a small increase in total cellular immunoreactive HepG2 type (GLUT1) transporter in response to cadmium. Furthermore, cell surface GLUT1 levels did not change in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts exposed to cadmium, as assessed by the binding to intact cells of an antibody which recognizes an extracellular GLUT1 epitope. Insulin enhanced 2-deoxyglucose uptake 2-fold in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts, but did not further stimulate cadmium-activated transport rates. In contrast, insulin stimulated hexose transport 15-fold in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, which express both GLUT1 and GLUT4 proteins, and this effect was fully additive with the 5-fold effect of cadmium. Cadmium had little or no effect on immunoreactive GLUT1 or GLUT4 in isolated 3T3-L1 adipocyte plasma membranes. In contrast, insulin action led to marked recruitment (3-fold) of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane fraction in adipocytes treated with or without cadmium. Taken together, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that cadmium-activated sugar uptake is catalyzed by GLUT1, whereas insulin-stimulated sugar uptake is catalyzed predominantly by GLUT4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Furthermore, the data suggest that the GLUT1 transporter can undergo significant increases in intrinsic catalytic activity in response to cadmium treatment of 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and adipocytes.  相似文献

The insulin-responsive glucose transporter GLUT4 plays an essential role in glucose homeostasis. A novel assay was used to study GLUT4 trafficking in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts/preadipocytes and adipocytes. Whereas insulin stimulated GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane in both cell types, in nonstimulated fibroblasts GLUT4 readily cycled between endosomes and the plasma membrane, while this was not the case in adipocytes. This efficient retention in basal adipocytes was mediated in part by a C-terminal targeting motif in GLUT4. Insulin caused a sevenfold increase in the amount of GLUT4 molecules present in a trafficking cycle that included the plasma membrane. Strikingly, the magnitude of this increase correlated with the insulin dose, indicating that the insulin-induced appearance of GLUT4 at the plasma membrane cannot be explained solely by a kinetic change in the recycling of a fixed intracellular GLUT4 pool. These data are consistent with a model in which GLUT4 is present in a storage compartment, from where it is released in a graded or quantal manner upon insulin stimulation and in which released GLUT4 continuously cycles between intracellular compartments and the cell surface independently of the nonreleased pool.  相似文献

The clinical use of several first generation HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) is associated with the development of insulin resistance. Indinavir has been shown to act as a potent reversible noncompetitive inhibitor of zero-trans glucose influx via direct interaction with the insulin responsive facilitative glucose transporter GLUT4. Newer drugs within this class have differing effects on insulin sensitivity in treated patients. GLUTs are known to contain two distinct glucose-binding sites that are located on opposite sides of the lipid bilayer. To determine whether interference with the cytoplasmic glucose binding site is responsible for differential effects of PIs on glucose transport, intact intracellular membrane vesicles containing GLUT1 and GLUT4, which have an inverted transporter orientation relative to the plasma membrane, were isolated from 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The binding of biotinylated ATB-BMPA, a membrane impermeable bis-mannose containing photolabel, was determined in the presence of indinavir, ritonavir, atazanavir, tipranavir, and cytochalasin b. Zero-trans 2-deoxyglucose transport was measured in both 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and primary rat adipocytes acutely exposed to these compounds. PI inhibition of glucose transport correlated strongly with the PI inhibition of ATB-BMPA/transporter binding. At therapeutically relevant concentrations, ritonavir was not selective for GLUT4 over GLUT1. Indinavir was found to act as a competitive inhibitor of the cytoplasmic glucose binding site of GLUT4 with a K(I) of 8.2 μM. These data establish biotinylated ATB-BMPA as an effective probe to quantify accessibility of the endofacial glucose-binding site in GLUTs and reveal that the ability of PIs to block this site differs among drugs within this class. This provides mechanistic insight into the basis for the clinical variation in drug-related metabolic toxicity.  相似文献

Native rat adipocytes and the mouse adipocyte cell line, 3T3-L1, possess transport vesicles of apparently uniform composition and size which translocate the tissue-specific glucose transporter isoform, GLUT4, from an intracellular pool to the cell surface in an insulin- sensitive fashion. Caveolin, the presumed structural protein of caveolae, has also been proposed to function in vesicular transport. Thus, we studied the expression and subcellular distribution of caveolin in adipocytes. We found that rat fat cells express the highest level of caveolin protein of any tissue studied, and caveolin is also expressed at high levels in cardiac muscle, another tissue possessing insulin responsive GLUT4 translocation. Both proteins are absent from 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and undergo a dramatic coordinate increase in expression upon differentiation of these cells into adipocytes. However, unlike GLUT4 in rat adipocytes not exposed to insulin, the majority of caveolin is present in the plasma membrane. In native rat adipocytes, intracellular GLUT4 and caveolin reside in vesicles practically indistinguishable by their size and buoyant density in sucrose gradients, and both proteins show insulin-dependent translocation to the cell surface. However, by immunoadsorption of GLUT4-containing vesicles with anti-GLUT4 antibody, we show that these vesicles have no detectable caveolin, and therefore, this protein is present in a distinct vesicle population. Thus, caveolin has no direct structural relation to the organization of the intracellular glucose transporting machinery in fat cells.  相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose uptake into muscle and fat cells by promoting the translocation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) to the cell surface. Phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) has been implicated in this process. However, the involvement of protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt, a downstream target of PI3K in regulation of GLUT4 translocation, has been controversial. Here we report that microinjection of a PKB substrate peptide or an antibody to PKB inhibited insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane by 66 or 56%, respectively. We further examined the activation of PKB isoforms following treatment of cells with insulin or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and found that PKBbeta is preferentially expressed in both rat and 3T3-L1 adipocytes, whereas PKBalpha expression is down-regulated in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. A switch in growth factor response was also observed when 3T3-L1 fibroblasts were differentiated into adipocytes. While PDGF was more efficacious than insulin in stimulating PKB phosphorylation in fibroblasts, PDGF did not stimulate PKBbeta phosphorylation to any significant extent in adipocytes, as assessed by several methods. Moreover, insulin, but not PDGF, stimulated the translocation of PKBbeta to the plasma membrane and high-density microsome fractions of 3T3-L1 adipocytes. These results support a role for PKBbeta in insulin-stimulated glucose transport in adipocytes.  相似文献

Insulin stimulates translocation of GLUT4 from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane in adipocytes. As a significant amount of GLUT4 is localised to the TGN, independently of the biosynthetic pathway, one possibility is that trafficking via the TGN is important in either intracellular sequestration or insulin-dependent movement to the cell surface. In this study we have used immuno-electron microscopy to show that GLUT4 is localised to AP-1 vesicles in the TGN region in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. To dissect the role of this trafficking pathway we used brefeldin A (BFA) to disrupt AP-1 association with membranes. Despite a reorganisation of GLUT4 compartments following BFA treatment, the intracellular sequestration of GLUT4, and its insulin-dependent movement to the cell surface, was unaffected. BFA increased the half time of reversal of insulin-stimulated glucose transport from 17 to 30 min but did not prevent complete reversal. Furthermore, following reversal re-stimulation of glucose transport activity by insulin was not compromised. We conclude that under basal conditions GLUT4 cycles between the TGN and endosomes via the AP-1 pathway. However, neither this pathway, nor any other BFA-sensitive pathway, appears to play a major role in insulin-dependent recruitment of GLUT4 to the cell surface.  相似文献

GLUT4 (glucose transporter 4) is responsible for the insulin-induced uptake of glucose by muscle and fat cells. In non-stimulated (basal) cells, GLUT4 is retained intracellularly, whereas insulin stimulation leads to its translocation from storage compartments towards the cell surface. How GLUT4 is retained intracellularly is largely unknown. Previously, aberrant GLUT4 N-glycosylation has been linked to increased basal cell-surface levels, while N-glycosylation-deficient GLUT4 was found to be quickly degraded. As recycling and degradation of GLUT4 are positively correlated, we hypothesized that incorrect N-glycosylation of GLUT4 might reduce its intracellular retention, resulting in an increased cell-surface recycling, in increased basal cell-surface levels, and in enhanced GLUT4 degradation. In the present study, we have investigated N-glycosylation-deficient GLUT4?in detail in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myoblasts. We have found no alterations in retention, insulin response, internalization or glucose transport activity. Degradation of the mutant molecule was increased, although once present at the cell surface, its degradation was identical with that of wild-type GLUT4. Our findings indicate that N-glycosylation is important for efficient trafficking of GLUT4 to its proper compartments, but once the transporter has arrived there, N-glycosylation plays no further major role in its intracellular trafficking, nor in its functional activity.  相似文献

In fat and muscle, insulin stimulates glucose uptake by rapidly mobilizing the GLUT4 glucose transporter from a specialized intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane. We describe a method to quantify the relative proportion of GLUT4 at the plasma membrane, using flow cytometry to measure a ratio of fluorescence intensities corresponding to the cell surface and total amounts of a tagged GLUT4 reporter in individual living cells. Using this assay, we demonstrate that both 3T3-L1 and CHO cells contain intracellular compartments from which GLUT4 is rapidly mobilized by insulin and that the initial magnitude and kinetics of redistribution to the plasma membrane are similar in these two cell types when they are cultured identically. Targeting of GLUT4 to a highly insulin-responsive compartment in CHO cells is modulated by culture conditions. In particular, we find that amino acids regulate distribution of GLUT4 to this kinetically defined compartment through a rapamycin-sensitive pathway. Amino acids also modulate the magnitude of insulin-stimulated translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Our results indicate a novel link between glucose and amino acid metabolism.  相似文献

Differentiating 3T3-L1 cells exhibit a dramatic increase in the rate of insulin-stimulated glucose transport during their conversion from proliferating fibroblasts to nonproliferating adipocytes. On day 3 of 3T3-L1 cell differentiation, basal glucose transport and cell surface transferrin binding are markedly diminished. This occurs concomitant with the formation of a distinct insulin-responsive vesicular pool of intracellular glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and transferrin receptors as assessed by sucrose velocity gradients. The intracellular distribution of the insulin-responsive aminopeptidase is first readily detectable on day 3, and its gradient profile and response to insulin at this time are identical to that of GLUT1. With further time of differentiation, GLUT4 is expressed and targeted to the same insulin-responsive vesicles as the other three proteins. Our data are consistent with the notion that a distinct insulin-sensitive vesicular cargo compartment forms early during fat call differentiation and its formation precedes GLUT4 expression. The development of this compartment may result from the differentiation-dependent inhibition of constitutive GLUT1 and transferrin receptor trafficking such that there is a large increase in, or the new formation of, a population of postendosomal, insulin-responsive vesicles.  相似文献

Insulin increases muscle and fat cell glucose uptake by inducing the translocation of glucose transporter GLUT4 from intracellular compartments to the plasma membrane. Here, we have demonstrated that in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, DMSO at concentrations higher than 7.5% augmented cell surface GLUT4 levels in the absence and presence of insulin, but that at lower concentrations, DMSO only enhanced GLUT4 levels in insulin-stimulated cells. At a 5% concentration, DMSO also increased cell surface levels of the transferrin receptor and GLUT1. Glucose uptake experiments indicated that while DMSO enhanced cell surface glucose transporter levels, it also inhibited glucose transporter activity. Our studies further demonstrated that DMSO did not sensitize the adipocytes for insulin and that its effect on GLUT4 was readily reversible (t1/2∼12 min) and maintained in insulin-resistant adipocytes. An enhancement of insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation was not observed in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and L6 myotubes, indicating cell specificity. DMSO did not enhance insulin signaling nor exocytosis of GLUT4 vesicles, but inhibited GLUT4 internalization. While other chemical chaperones (glycerol and 4-phenyl butyric acid) also acutely enhanced insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation, these effects were not mediated via changes in GLUT4 endocytosis. We conclude that DMSO is the first molecule to be described that instantaneously enhances insulin-induced increases in cell surface GLUT4 levels in adipocytes, at least in part through a reduction in GLUT4 endocytosis.  相似文献

The precise mechanisms underlying insulin-stimulated glucose transport still require investigation. Here we assessed the effect of SB203580, an inhibitor of the p38 MAP kinase family, on insulin-stimulated glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myotubes. We found that SB203580, but not its inactive analogue (SB202474), prevented insulin-stimulated glucose transport in both cell types with an IC50 similar to that for inhibition of p38 MAP kinase (0.6 microM). Basal glucose uptake was not affected. Moreover, SB203580 added only during the transport assay did not inhibit basal or insulin-stimulated transport. SB203580 did not inhibit insulin-stimulated translocation of the glucose transporters GLUT1 or GLUT4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes as assessed by immunoblotting of subcellular fractions or by immunofluorescence of membrane lawns. L6 muscle cells expressing GLUT4 tagged on an extracellular domain with a Myc epitope (GLUT4myc) were used to assess the functional insertion of GLUT4 into the plasma membrane. SB203580 did not affect the insulin-induced gain in GLUT4myc exposure at the cell surface but largely reduced the stimulation of glucose uptake. SB203580 had no effect on insulin-dependent insulin receptor substrate-1 phosphorylation, association of the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase with insulin receptor substrate-1, nor on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, Akt1, Akt2, or Akt3 activities in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In conclusion, in the presence of SB203580, insulin caused normal translocation and cell surface membrane insertion of glucose transporters without stimulating glucose transport. We propose that insulin stimulates two independent signals contributing to stimulation of glucose transport: phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase leads to glucose transporter translocation and a pathway involving p38 MAP kinase leads to activation of the recruited glucose transporter at the membrane.  相似文献

Insulin stimulates trafficking of GLUT4 to the cell surface for glucose uptake into target cells, and phosphorylation of Ser703 of the Na+/H+ exchanger NHE1, which activates proton efflux. The latter has been proposed to facilitate optimal glucose uptake into cardiomyocytes. We found that the insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Ser703 of NHE1 is mediated by p90RSK but not directly coupled to glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in the short-term. Inhibiting Erk1/2 activation prevented NHE1 phosphorylation but not glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In contrast, both NHE1 phosphorylation and insulin-stimulated uptake of glucose into 3T3-L1 adipocytes were blocked by inhibitors of the N-terminal kinase domain of p90RSK, namely BI-D1870 and SL0101, but not the FMK inhibitor of the C-terminal kinase domain of p90RSK, though in our hands FMK did not inhibit p90RSK in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Further experiments were consistent with phosphorylation of AS160 by PKB/Akt mediating insulin-stimulated trafficking of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane. BI-D1870 and SL0101 however, inhibited glucose uptake without blocking GLUT4 translocation. While BI-D1870 partially inhibited insulin-stimulated PKB activation in these cells, this only partially inhibited AS160 phosphorylation and did not block GLUT4 trafficking, suggesting that p90RSK might regulate glucose transport after GLUT4 translocation. Moreover, BI-D1870 also prevented PMA-induced glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes further suggesting a role for p90RSK in regulating uptake of glucose into the cells. Kinetic experiments are consistent with SL0101 being a direct competitor of 2-deoxyglucose entry into cells, and this compound might also inhibit uptake of glucose into cells via inhibiting p90RSK, as revealed by comparison with the inactive form of the inhibitor. Taken together, we propose that BI-D1870 and SL0101 might exert their inhibitory effects on glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes at least partially through a p90RSK dependent step after GLUT4 becomes associated with the plasma membrane.  相似文献

Several studies have demonstrated that the intrinsic catalytic activity of cell surface glucose transporters is highly regulated in 3T3-L1 adipocytes expressing GLUT1 (erythrocyte/brain) and GLUT4 (adipocyte/skeletal muscle) glucose transporter isoforms. For example, inhibition of protein synthesis in these cells by anisomycin or cycloheximide leads to marked increases in hexose transport without a change in the levels of cell surface glucose transporter proteins (Clancy, B. M., Harrison, S. A., Buxton, J. M., and Czech, M. P. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 10122-10130). In the present work the exofacial hexose binding sites on GLUT1 and GLUT4 in anisomycin-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were labeled with the cell-impermeant photoaffinity reagent [2-3H]2-N-[4-(1-azitrifluoroethyl)benzoyl]-1,3-bis- (D-mannos-4-yloxy)-2-propylamine [( 2-3H] ATB-BMPA) to determine which isoform is activated by protein synthetic blockade. As expected, a 15-fold increase in 2-deoxyglucose uptake in response to insulin was associated with 1.7- and 2.6-fold elevations in plasma membrane GLUT1 and GLUT4 protein levels, respectively. Anisomycin treatment of cultured adipocytes for 5 h produced an 8-fold stimulation of hexose transport but no increase in the content of glucose transporters in the plasma membrane fraction as measured by protein immunoblot analysis. Cell surface GLUT1 levels were also shown to be unaffected on 3T3-L1 adipocytes in response to anisomycin using an independent method, the binding of an antiexofacial GLUT1 antibody to intact cells. In contrast, anisomycin fully mimicked the action of insulin to stimulate (about 4-fold) the radiolabeling of GLUT1 transporters specifically immunoprecipitated from intact 3T3-L1 adipocytes irradiated after incubation with [2-3H] ATB-BMPA. Photolabeling of GLUT4 under these conditions was also significantly enhanced (1.8-fold) by anisomycin treatment, but this effect was only 15% of that caused by insulin. These results suggest that: 1) the photoaffinity reagent [2-3H]ATB-BMPA labels those cell surface glucose transporters present in a catalytically active state rather than total cell surface transporters as assumed previously and 2) inhibition of protein synthesis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes stimulates sugar transport primarily by enhancing the intrinsic catalytic activity of cell surface GLUT1, and to a lesser extent, GLUT4 proteins.  相似文献

Insulin activates glucose transport by promoting translocation of the insulin-sensitive fat/muscle-specific glucose transporter GLUT4 from an intracellular storage compartment to the cell surface. Here we report that an optimal insulin effect on glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is dependent upon expression of both PIKfyve, the sole enzyme for PtdIns 3,5-P(2) biosynthesis, and the PIKfyve activator, ArPIKfyve. Small-interfering RNAs that selectively ablated PIKfyve or ArPIKfyve in this cell type depleted the PtdIns 3,5-P(2) pool and reduced insulin-activated glucose uptake to a comparable degree. Combined loss of PIKfyve and ArPIKfyve caused further PtdIns 3,5-P(2) ablation that correlated with greater attenuation in insulin responsiveness. Loss of PIKfyve-ArPIKfyve reduced insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation and the cell surface accumulation of GLUT4 or IRAP, but not GLUT1-containing vesicles without affecting overall expression of these proteins. ArPIKfyve and PIKfyve were found to physically associate in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and this was insulin independent. In vitro labeling of membranes isolated from basal or insulin-stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes documented substantial insulin-dependent increases of PtdIns 3,5-P(2) production on intracellular membranes. Together, the data demonstrate for the first time a physical association between functionally related PIKfyve and ArPIKfyve in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and indicate that the novel ArPIKfyve-PIKfyve-PtdIns 3,5-P(2) pathway is physiologically linked to insulin-activated GLUT4 translocation and glucose transport.  相似文献

The GLUT4 glucose transporter resides mostly in perinuclear membranes in unstimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes and is acutely translocated to the cell surface in response to insulin. Using a novel method to purify intracellular GLUT4-enriched membranes, we identified by mass spectrometry the intermediate filament protein vimentin and the microtubule protein alpha-tubulin as components of these membranes. Immunoelectron microscopy of the GLUT4-containing membranes also revealed their association with these cytoskeletal proteins. Disruption of intermediate filaments and microtubules in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by microinjection of a vimentin-derived peptide of the helix initiation 1A domain caused marked dispersion of perinuclear GLUT4 to peripheral regions of the cells. Inhibition of the microtubule-based motor dynein by brief cytoplasmic acidification of cultured adipocytes also dispersed perinuclear GLUT4 and inhibited insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface. Insulin sensitivity was restored as GLUT4 was again concentrated near the nucleus upon recovery of cells in physiological buffer. These data suggest that GLUT4 trafficking to perinuclear membranes of cultured adipocytes is directed by dynein and is required for optimal GLUT4 regulation by insulin.  相似文献

Syntaxins are thought to be membrane receptors that bind proteins of the synaptobrevin/vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP) family found on transport vesicles. Recently, we detected synaptobrevin II and cellubrevin on immunopurified vesicles containing the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in insulin-responsive cells. In an effort to identify the plasma membrane receptors for these vesicles, we now examine the expression of syntaxins in the 3T3-L1 adipocyte cell line. Neither syntaxin 1A nor 1B was found, in keeping with the neuronal restriction of these isoforms. In contrast, syntaxins 2 and 4 were readily detectable. By subcellular fractionation and estimation of protein yields, 67% of syntaxin 4 was localized to the plasma membrane, 24% to the low-density microsomes, and 9% to the high-density microsomes. Interestingly, acute insulin treatment decreased the content of syntaxin 4 in low-density microsomes and caused a corresponding gain in the plasma membrane fraction, reminiscent of the recruitment of GLUT4 glucose transporters. In contrast, there was no change in the distribution of syntaxin 2, which was mostly associated in the plasma membrane. A fraction of the intracellular syntaxin 4 was recovered with immunopurified GLUT4-containing vesicles. Moreover, anti-syntaxin 4 antibodies introduced in permeabilized 3T3-L1 adipocytes significantly reduced the insulin-dependent stimulation of glucose transport, in contrast to the introduction of irrelevant immunoglobulin G, which was without consequence. We propose that either the plasma membrane and/or the vesicular syntaxin 4 are involved in docking and/or fusion of GLUT4 vesicles at the cell surface of 3T3-L1 adipocytes.  相似文献

Insulin stimulates adipose cells both to secrete proteins and to translocate the GLUT4 glucose transporter from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane. We demonstrate that whereas insulin stimulation of 3T3-L1 adipocytes has no effect on secretion of the alpha3 chain of type VI collagen, secretion of the protein hormone adipocyte complement related protein of 30 kD (ACRP30) is markedly enhanced. Like GLUT4, regulated exocytosis of ACRP30 appears to require phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase activity, since insulin-stimulated ACRP30 secretion is blocked by pharmacologic inhibitors of this enzyme. Thus, 3T3-L1 adipocytes possess a regulated secretory compartment containing ACRP30. Whether GLUT4 recycles to such a compartment has been controversial. We present deconvolution immunofluorescence microscopy data demonstrating that the subcellular distributions of ACRP30 and GLUT4 are distinct and nonoverlapping; in contrast, those of GLUT4 and the transferrin receptor overlap. Together with supporting evidence that GLUT4 does not recycle to a secretory compartment via the trans-Golgi network, we conclude that there are at least two compartments that undergo insulin-stimulated exocytosis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes: one for ACRP30 secretion and one for GLUT4 translocation.  相似文献

PACSIN family members regulate intracellular vesicle trafficking via their ability to regulate cytoskeletal rearrangement. These processes are known to be involved in trafficking of GLUT1 and GLUT4 in adipocytes. In this study, PACSIN3 was observed to be the only PACSIN isoform that increases in expression during 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation. Overexpression of PACSIN3 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes caused an elevation of glucose uptake. Subcellular fractionation revealed that PACSIN3 overexpression elevated GLUT1 plasma membrane localization without effecting GLUT4 distribution. In agreement with this result, examination of GLUT exofacial presentation at the cell surface by photoaffinity labeling revealed significantly increased GLUT1, but not GLUT4, after overexpression of PACSIN3. These results establish a role for PACSIN3 in regulating glucose uptake in adipocytes via its preferential participation in GLUT1 trafficking. They are consistent with the proposal, which is supported by a recent study, that GLUT1, but not GLUT4, is predominantly endocytosed via the coated pit pathway in unstimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes.  相似文献

Based on recent studies showing that phospholipase D (PLD)1 is associated with intracellular membranes and promotes membrane budding from the trans-Golgi, we tested its possible role in the membrane trafficking of GLUT4 glucose transporters. Using immunofluorescence confocal microscopy, expressed Myc epitope-tagged PLD1 was found to associate with intracellular vesicular structures by a mechanism that requires its N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain. Partial co-localization with expressed GLUT4 fused to green fluorescent protein in both 3T3-L1 adipocytes and Chinese hamster ovary cells was evident. Furthermore, microinjection of purified PLD into cultured adipocytes markedly potentiated the effect of a submaximal concentration of insulin to stimulate GLUT4 translocation to cell surface membranes. Insulin stimulated PLD activity in cells expressing high levels of insulin receptors but no such insulin effect was detected in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Taken together, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that PLD1 associated with GLUT4-containing membranes acts in a constitutive manner to promote the mechanism of GLUT4 translocation by insulin.  相似文献

The recent demonstration of a large cell surface-derived pool of insulin-sensitive glucose transporters, presumably concentrated in the microvilli of 3T3-L1 adipocytes, induced the assumption that in differentiated adipocytes, newly inserted plasma membrane areas may display restricted lateral mobility, thereby preventing diffusion of integral membrane proteins out of these areas into the adjoining plasma membrane. In order to test this assumption, the cell surface distributions of the two glucose transporter species expressed by 3T3-L1 cells were determined using specific antisera against the HepG2/erythrocyte transporter, GluT1, which is synthesized in both fibroblasts and adipocytes, and the adipocyte/muscle-specific transporter, GluT4, expressed for the first time 3-4 days after induction of adipose conversion. GluT1 was shown to be localized in the plasma membrane of both 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes, whereas GluT4 was almost entirely restricted to the low density surface-derived vesicle (LDSV) fraction of 3T3-L1 adipocytes most likely consisting of microvilli-derived vesicles. In contrast to the minor portion of GluT4 found in the adipocyte plasma membrane fraction, equal amounts of the GluT1 protein were detected in both the plasma membrane and the LDSV fractions of adipocytes. Both transporter species were present in the microsomal and the LDSV fractions of adipocytes. The observed distribution of the two transporter species is in accordance with the postulated restriction of the lateral mobility in plasma membrane areas formed by newly inserted transgolgi vesicles of differentiated adipocytes.  相似文献
