Lactate production by BHK cells is stimulated by arsenite, azide, or by infection with Semliki Forest virus (SFV). In the case of arsenite or SFV infection, the increase correlates approximately with the increase in glucose transport as measured by uptake of [3H] deoxy glucose (dGlc); in the case of azide, the increase in lactate production exceeds that of glucose transport. Hence glucose utilization by BHK cells and its stimulation by anaerobic and other types of cellular stress is controlled at least in part at the level of glucose transport. The glucose uptake by BHK cells is also stimulated by serum and by glucose deprivation. In these circumstances, as with arsenite, stimulation is reversible, with t1/2 of 1-2 hours; stimulation is compatible with a translocation of the glucose transporter protein between an intracellular site and the plasma membrane (shown here for serum and previously for arsenite). The surface binding and rate of internalization of [125I]-labelled transferrin and [125I] alpha 2-macroglobulin was studied to determine whether changes in glucose transport are accompanied by changes in the surface concentration or rate of internalization of membrane proteins. The findings indicate that changes in glucose transport do not reflect a consistent and general redistribution of membrane receptors. Taken together, the results are compatible with the proposal that BHK cells exposed to stimuli like insulin or serum, or to stresses like arsenite, azide, SFV infection, or deprivation of glucose, respond in the same manner: namely, by an increased capacity to transport glucose brought about by reversible and specific translocation of the transporter protein from an (inactive) intracellular site to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Molecular and cellular regulation of glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins in cancer 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21
Malignant cells are known to have accelerated metabolism, high glucose requirements, and increased glucose uptake. Transport of glucose across the plasma membrane of mammalian cells is the first rate-limiting step for glucose metabolism and is mediated by facilitative glucose transporter (GLUT) proteins. Increased glucose transport in malignant cells has been associated with increased and deregulated expression of glucose transporter proteins, with overexpression of GLUT1 and/or GLUT3 a characteristic feature. Oncogenic transformation of cultured mammalian cells causes a rapid increase of glucose transport and GLUT1 expression via interaction with GLUT1 promoter enhancer elements. In human studies, high levels of GLUT1 expression in tumors have been associated with poor survival. Studies indicate that glucose transport in breast cancer is not fully explained by GLUT1 or GLUT3 expression, suggesting involvement of another glucose transporter. Recently, a novel glucose transporter protein, GLUT12, has been found in breast and prostate cancers. In human breast and prostate tumors and cultured cells, GLUT12 is located intracellularly and at the cell surface. Trafficking of GLUT12 to the plasma membrane could therefore contribute to glucose uptake. Several factors have been implicated in the regulation of glucose transporter expression in breast cancer. Hypoxia can increase GLUT1 levels and glucose uptake. Estradiol and epidermal growth factor, both of which can play a role in breast cancer cell growth, increase glucose consumption. Estradiol and epidermal growth factor also increase GLUT12 protein levels in cultured breast cancer cells. Targeting GLUT12 could provide novel methods for detection and treatment of breast and prostate cancer. 相似文献

GLUT4 (glucose transporter 4) plays a pivotal role in insulin-induced glucose uptake to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Here, we report that a cell-permeable phosphoinositide-binding peptide induced GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane without inhibiting IRAP (insulin-responsive aminopeptidase) endocytosis. However, unlike insulin treatment, the peptide treatment did not increase glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, indicating that GLUT4 translocation and activation are separate events. GLUT4 activation can occur at the plasma membrane, since insulin was able to increase glucose uptake with a shorter time lag when inactive GLUT4 was first translocated to the plasma membrane by pretreating the cells with this peptide. Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity failed to inhibit GLUT4 translocation by the peptide but did inhibit glucose uptake when insulin was added following peptide treatment. Insulin, but not the peptide, stimulated GLUT1 translocation. Surprisingly, the peptide pretreatment inhibited insulin-induced GLUT1 translocation, suggesting that the peptide treatment has both a stimulatory effect on GLUT4 translocation and an inhibitory effect on insulin-induced GLUT1 translocation. These results suggest that GLUT4 requires translocation to the plasma membrane, as well as activation at the plasma membrane, to initiate glucose uptake, and both of these steps normally require PI 3-kinase activation. 相似文献

Many disease affect cell behaviour by an effect at the cell surface, often leading to altered communication across the plasma membrane. Two examples of this from our own work are presented. The first concerns the induction of pores, leading to a breach of insulating properties of the cell membrane, by agents as diverse as certain viruses, bacterial and animal toxins, or immune molecules. In each case, membrane damage can be prevented by divalent cations such as Ca2+ or Zn2+. The second example concerns the effect of stress stimuli on the ability of cells to take up glucose. Different stresses, such as hyperthermia, toxic chemicals or infection by certain viruses, cause cells to increase glucose uptake. As with insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, the mechanism is by translocation of the glucose transporter protein from an intracellular (inactive) site to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Exposure of 3T3-L1 adipocytes to 100 ng/ml of cholera toxin or 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP caused a marked stimulation of deoxyglucose transport. A maximal increase of 10- to 15-fold was observed after 12-24 h of exposure, while 100 nM insulin elicited an increase of similar magnitude within 30 min. A short term exposure (4 h) of cells to cholera toxin or dibutyryl cyclic AMP resulted in a 3- to 4-fold increase in deoxyglucose transport which was associated with significant redistribution of both the HepG2/erythrocyte (GLUT1) and muscle/adipocyte (GLUT4) glucose transporters from low density microsomes to the plasma membrane fraction. Total cellular amounts of both transporter proteins remained constant. In contrast, cells exposed to cholera toxin or dibutyryl cyclic AMP for 12 h exhibited elevations in total cellular contents of GLUT1 (but not GLUT4) protein to about 1.5- and 2.5-fold above controls, respectively. Although such treatments of cells with cholera toxin (12 h) versus insulin (30 min) caused similar 10-fold enhancements of deoxyglucose transport, a striking discrepancy was observed with respect to the content of glucose transporter proteins in the plasma membrane fraction. While insulin elicited a 2.6-fold increase in the levels of GLUT4 protein in the plasma membrane fraction, cholera toxin increased the amount of this transporter by only 30%. Insulin or cholera toxin increased the levels of GLUT1 protein in the plasma membrane fraction equally (1.6-fold). Thus, a greater number of glucose transporters in the plasma membrane fraction is associated with transport stimulation by insulin compared to cholera toxin. We conclude that: 1) at early times (4 h) after the addition of cholera toxin or dibutyryl cyclic AMP to 3T3-L1 adipocytes, redistribution of glucose transporters to the plasma membrane appears to contribute to elevated deoxyglucose uptake rates, and 2) the stimulation of hexose uptake after prolonged treatment (12-18 h) of cells with cholera toxin may involve an additional increase in the intrinsic activity of one or both glucose transporter isoforms. 相似文献

Up-regulation of sodium-dependent glucose transporter by interaction with heat shock protein 70 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Heat shock stress induces some heat shock proteins, including Hsp70, and activates sodium-dependent glucose transport in porcine renal LLC-PK(1) cells, but its mechanisms have not been described in detail. We investigated whether sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT1) interacts with Hsp70 to increase SGLT1 activity. Heat shock stress increased SGLT1 activity without changing SGLT1 expression. The increase of SGLT1 activity was completely inhibited by an anti-transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) antibody. Instead of heat shock stress, TGF-beta1 increased SGLT1 activity dose- and time-dependently without changing SGLT1 expression. We found that the amount of Hsp70 immunoprecipitated from TGF-beta1-treated cells with an anti-SGLT1 antibody was higher than that of the control cells. Transfection of an anti-Hsp70 antibody into the cells inhibited the increase of SGLT1 activity. With confocal laser microscopy, both SGLT1 and Hsp70 was localized near the apical membrane in the TGF-beta1-treated cells, and an anti-Hsp70 antibody disturbed this localization. Furthermore, we clarified that an anti-Hsp70 antibody inhibited interaction of SGLT1 with Hsp70 in vitro. These results suggest that Hsp70 forms a complex with SGLT1 and increases the expression level of SGLT1 in the apical membrane, resulting in up-regulation of glucose uptake. 相似文献

We purposed to determine the impact of erythropoietin on altering glucose metabolism in the settings of in vitro and in vivo experiments. The acute effect of erythropoietin on lowering blood glucose levels was studied in animal experiments. In [3H]-deoxy-D-glucose isotope studies we measured glucose uptake with insulin and erythropoietin using 3T3-L1 cells cultured under normal or high glucose conditions. Altered activation of Akt and ERK pathways was evaluated in immunoblot analyses. Immunocytochemistry was conducted to determine the glucose transporter 4 translocation to the plasma membrane. Addition of erythropoietin significantly lowered blood glucose levels in vivo in rats. The glucose uptake was markedly increased by erythropoietin treatment (at concentrations 0.15, 0.3, and 0.625 ng/ml) in adipocytes grown in high glucose medium (p<0.05), but it remained unaltered in cells under normal glucose conditions. Significant increase of phosphorylation of ERK and Akt was detected due to erythropoietin (p<0.05). Co-administration of erythropoietin and insulin resulted in higher phosphorylation of Akt and [3H]-deoxy-D-glucose uptake in adipocytes than insulin treatment alone. We found that erythropoietin induced the trafficking of glucose transporter 4 to the plasma membrane. Our data showed that erythropoietin significantly decreased blood glucose levels both in vivo and in vitro, in part, by increasing glucose uptake via the activation of Akt pathway. Preliminary data revealed that adipocytes most likely exhibit a specific receptor for erythropoietin. 相似文献

Molecular events leading to enhanced glucose transport in Rous sarcoma virus-transformed cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Transformation by Rous sarcoma virus results in a dramatic increase in the rate at which the transformed cells transport glucose across the cell membrane. The increased transport rate is a consequence of an increased number of transporters in the transformed cells. Utilizing antibody raised against the purified human erythrocyte glucose transporter, we have identified the glucose transporter as a membrane glycoprotein with a monomer Mr of approximately 41,000. The increased rate of glucose transport is dependent on the activity of pp60src, the transforming protein of Rous sarcoma virus. This protein has been shown to be a protein kinase that phosphorylates on tyrosine residues. We have examined the tyrosine phosphorylation of a major cellular protein of Mr 36,000 in cells infected with a panel of partially transforming mutants of Rous sarcoma virus. One of these mutants (CU2) increases the rate of glucose transport only slightly and does not render the infected cells fully anchorage independent or tumorigenic (although other transformation parameters are fully induced). Cells infected with this mutant display a 36,000-dalton protein that is phosphorylated to a considerably lesser extent than cells infected with wild-type virus. Analyses of this sort may help to identify the cellular targets of pp60src whose phosphorylation is necessary for the increased glucose transport rate. 相似文献

Glucose transport to the fetus across the placenta takes place via glucose transporters in the opposing faces of the barrier layer, the microvillous and basal membranes of the syncytiotrophoblast. While basal membrane content of the GLUT1 glucose transporter appears to be the rate-limiting step in transplacental transport, the factors regulating transporter expression and activity are largely unknown. In view of the many studies showing an association between IGF-I and fetal growth, we investigated the effects of IGF-I on placental glucose transport and GLUT1 transporter expression. Treatment of BeWo choriocarcinoma cells with IGF-I increased cellular GLUT1 protein. There was increased basolateral (but not microvillous) uptake of glucose and increased transepithelial transport of glucose across the BeWo monolayer. Primary syncytial cells treated with IGF-I also demonstrated an increase in GLUT1 protein. Term placental explants treated with IGF-I showed an increase in syncytial basal membrane GLUT1 but microvillous membrane GLUT1 was not affected. The placental dual perfusion model was used to assess the effects of fetally perfused IGF-I on transplacental glucose transport and syncytial GLUT1 content. In control perfusions there was a decrease in transplacental glucose transport over the course of the perfusion, whereas in tissues perfused with IGF-I through the fetal circulation there was no change. Syncytial basal membranes from IGF-I perfused tissues showed an increase in GLUT1 content. These results demonstrate that IGF-I, whether acting via microvillous or basal membrane receptors, increases the basal membrane content of GLUT1 and up-regulates basal membrane transport of glucose, leading to increased transepithelial glucose transport. These observations provide a partial explanation for the mechanism by which IGF-I controls nutrient supply in the regulation of fetal growth. 相似文献

Identification of an intracellular pool of glucose transporters from basal and insulin-stimulated rat skeletal muscle 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The purpose of this study was to simultaneously isolate skeletal muscle plasma and microsomal membranes from the hind limbs of male Sprague-Dawley rats perfused either in the absence or presence of 20 milliunits/ml insulin and to determine the effect of insulin on the number and distribution of glucose transporters in these membrane fractions. Insulin increased hind limb glucose uptake greater than 3-fold (2.4 +/- 0.7 versus 9.2 +/- 1.0 mumol/g x h, p less than 0.001). Plasma membrane glucose transporter number, measured by cytochalasin B binding, increased 2-fold (9.1 +/- 1.0 to 20.4 +/- 3.1 pmol/mg protein, p less than 0.005) in insulin-stimulated muscle while microsomal membrane transporters decreased significantly (14.8 +/- 1.6 to 9.8 +/- 1.4 pmol/mg protein, p less than 0.05). No change in the dissociation constant (Kd approximately 120 nm) was observed. K+-stimulated-p-nitrophenol phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, and galactosyltransferase specific activity, enrichment, and recovery in the plasma and microsomal membrane fractions were not altered by insulin treatment. Western blot analysis using the monoclonal antibody mAb 1F8 (specific for the insulin-regulatable glucose transporter) demonstrated increased glucose transporter densities in plasma membranes from insulin-treated hind limb skeletal muscle compared with untreated tissues, while microsomal membranes from the insulin-treated hind limb skeletal muscle had a concomitant decrease in transporter density. We conclude that the increase in plasma membrane glucose transporters explains, at least in part, the increase in glucose uptake associated with insulin stimulation of hind limb skeletal muscle. Our data further suggest that these recruited transporters originate from an intracellular microsomal pool, consistent with the translocation hypothesis. 相似文献

The regulation of glucose transport into cultured brain cells during glucose starvation was studied. On glucose deprivation for 40 h, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) uptake was stimulated twofold in neuronal cells but was not changed significantly in astrocytes. On refeeding, the increased activity of neuronal cells rapidly returned to the basal level, an observation indicating that the effect of glucose starvation was reversible. The increase was due solely to change in the Vmax, a finding suggesting that the number of glucose transporters on the plasma membrane is increased in starved cells. Cycloheximide inhibited this increase. In the presence of cycloheximide, the activity of 2-DG uptake of starved cells remained constant for 12 h and then slowly decreased, whereas that of fed cells decreased rapidly. These findings suggest that glucose starvation regulates glucose transport by changing the rate of net synthesis of the transporter in neuronal cells in culture. 相似文献

Acute effects of cycloheximide on the translocation of glucose transporters in rat adipose cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Insulin's rapid action to increase glucose transport is believed to occur primarily through the translocation of glucose transporters from an intracellular pool to the plasma membrane. To better understand the mechanism involved, we studied the role of protein synthesis in glucose transporter translocation by using the protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide. Isolated rat epididymal adipose cells were incubated in the presence or absence of cycloheximide (10 micrograms/ml) for a total of 120 min. Insulin (7 nM) was added to half of the cells from both groups for the final 30 min. Protein synthesis was inhibited by approximately 90%, as measured by [14C]leucine incorporation, in the cells exposed to cycloheximide. The 3-O-methylglucose uptake in intact cells was slightly increased in the basal state with cycloheximide treatment, but the insulin-stimulated 3-O-methylglucose uptake was unchanged by cycloheximide. The distribution of glucose transporters in the different subcellular membrane fractions, as measured by the cytochalasin B binding assay, was unchanged by cycloheximide. These results suggest that insulin's stimulation of glucose transport and translocation of glucose transporters can occur without acute protein synthesis. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle plasma membrane glucose transport and glucose transporters after exercise 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
L J Goodyear M F Hirshman P A King E D Horton C M Thompson E S Horton 《Journal of applied physiology》1990,68(1):193-198
Recent reports have shown that immediately after an acute bout of exercise the glucose transport system of rat skeletal muscle plasma membranes is characterized by an increase in both glucose transporter number and intrinsic activity. To determine the duration of the exercise response we examined the time course of these changes after completion of a single bout of exercise. Male rats were exercised on a treadmill for 1 h (20 m/min, 10% grade) or allowed to remain sedentary. Rats were killed either immediately or 0.5 or 2 h after exercise, and red gastrocnemius muscle was used for the preparation of plasma membranes. Plasma membrane glucose transporter number was elevated 1.8- and 1.6-fold immediately and 30 min after exercise, although facilitated D-glucose transport in plasma membrane vesicles was elevated 4- and 1.8-fold immediately and 30 min after exercise, respectively. By 2 h after exercise both glucose transporter number and transport activity had returned to nonexercised control values. Additional experiments measuring glucose uptake in perfused hindquarter muscle produced similar results. We conclude that the reversal of the increase in glucose uptake by hindquarter skeletal muscle after exercise is correlated with a reversal of the increase in the glucose transporter number and activity in the plasma membrane. The time course of the transport-to-transporter ratio suggests that the intrinsic activity response reverses more rapidly than that involving transporter number. 相似文献

Summary In rat adipocytes, the insulin stimulation of the rate of glucose uptake is due, at least partially, to the recruitment of glucose transporter proteins from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane.Vanadate is a known insulin mimetic agent and causes an increase in the rate of glucose transport in rat adipocytes similar to that seen with insulin. The objective of the present study was to determine whether vanadate exerts its effect through the recruitment of glucose transporters to the plasma membrane.We report that under conditions where vanadate stimulates the rate of 2-deoxyglucose uptake to the same extent as insulin, the concentration of GLUT-4 in the plasma membrane was increased similarly by both insulin and vanadate, and its concentration was decreased in the low density microsomal fraction. These results suggest that vanadate induces the recruitment of GLUT-4 to the plasma membrane. The effects of vanadate and insulin on the stimulation of 2-deoxyglucose uptake and recruitment of GLUT-4 were not additive.This is the first report of an effect of vanadate on the intracellular distribution of the glucose transporter. 相似文献

Studies designed to elucidate the mechanism of regulation of the GLUT1 isoform of the glucose transporter in response to a variety of cellular stresses are reviewed. Using ts mutants of vesicular stomatitis virus, it was shown that the viral L gene was responsible for the stimulation of glucose transport in infected cells. Immunofluorescence of GLUT1 demonstrated that the increase in glucose transport was the consequence of a translocation of the transporter from a reservoir in cytoplasmic vesicles to the plasma membrane. When cells were cycled between deficient and standard medium, the change in glucose transport rates was paralleled by a cycling of the transporter between the plasma membrane and the cytoplasmic vesicles. The redistribution of GLUT1 was not a consequence of a general redistribution of recycling plasma membrane proteins. Instead, the findings focus attention on the regulated exocytosis of specific membrane constituents in cells that, until recently, were not thought to exhibit this capacity. 相似文献

2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) compromises ATP production within the cell by disrupting the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The resulting loss of ATP leads to an increase in glucose uptake for anaerobic generation of ATP. In L6 skeletal muscle cells, DNP increases the rate of glucose uptake by twofold. We previously showed that DNP increases cell surface levels of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) and hexose uptake via a Ca2+-sensitive and conventional protein kinase C (cPKC)-dependent mechanism. Recently, 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been proposed to mediate the stimulation of glucose uptake by energy stressors such as exercise and hypoxia. Changes in Ca2+ and cPKC have also been invoked in the stimulation of glucose uptake by exercise and hypoxia. Here we examine whether changes in cytosolic Ca2+ or cPKC lead to activation of AMPK. We show that treatment of L6 cells with DNP (0.5 mM) or hyperosmolar stress (mannitol, 0.6 M) increased AMPK activity by 3.5-fold. AMPK activation peaked by 10-15 min prior to maximal stimulation of glucose uptake. Intracellular Ca2+ chelation and cPKC inhibition prior to treatment with DNP and hyperosmolarity significantly reduced cell surface GLUT4 levels and hexose uptake but had no effect on AMPK activation. These results illustrate a break in the relationship between AMPK activation and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells. Activation of AMPK does not suffice to stimulate glucose uptake in response to DNP and hyperosmolarity. 相似文献

The effects of insulin therapy in streptozotocin diabetic rats on the glucose transport response to insulin in adipose cells have been examined. At sequential intervals during subcutaneous insulin infusion, isolated cells were prepared and incubated with or without insulin, and 3-O-methylglucose transport was measured. Insulin treatment not only reversed the insulin-resistant glucose transport associated with diabetes, but resulted in a progressive hyperresponsiveness, peaking with a 3-fold overshoot at 7-8 days (12.1 +/- 0.3 versus 3.4 +/- 0.1 fmol/cell/min, mean +/- S.E.) and remaining elevated for more than 3 weeks. During the peak overshoot, glucose transporters in subcellular membrane fractions were assessed by cytochalasin B binding. Insulin therapy restored glucose transporter concentration in the plasma membranes of insulin-stimulated cells from a 40% depleted level previously reported in the diabetic state to approximately 35% greater than control (38 +/- 4 versus 28 +/- 2 pmol/mg of membrane protein). Glucose transporter concentration in the low-density microsomes from basal cells was also restored from an approximately 45% depleted level back to normal (50 +/- 4 versus 50 +/- 6 pmol/mg of membrane protein), whereas total intracellular glucose transporters were further increased due to an approximately 2-fold increase in low-density microsomal membrane protein. However, these increases remained markedly less than the enhancement of insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in the intact cell. Thus, insulin treatment of diabetic rats produces a marked and sustained hyperresponsive insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in the adipose cell with little more than a restoration to the non-diabetic control level of glucose transporter translocation. Because this enhanced glucose transport activity occurs through an increase in Vmax, insulin therapy appears to be associated with a marked increase in glucose transporter intrinsic activity. 相似文献

Glycolytic enzymes and a GLUT-1 glucose transporter in the outer segments of rod and cone photoreceptor cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The presence of glycolytic enzymes and a GLUT-1-type glucose transporter in rod and cone outer segments was determined by enzyme activity assays, glucose uptake measurements, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence microscopy. Enzyme activities of six glycolytic enzymes including hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase, pyruvate kinase, and lactate dehydrogenase, were found to be present in purified rod outer segment (ROS) preparations. Immunofluorescence microscopy of bovine and chicken retina sections labeled with monoclonal antibodies against glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase, and lactate dehydrogenase have confirmed that these enzymes are present in rod and cone outer segments and not simply contaminants from the inner segments or other cells. Rod outer segments were also found to contain glucose transport activity as detected by 3-O-[14C]methylglucose uptake and exchange. The glucose transporter had a Km of 6.3 mM and a Vmax of 0.15 nmol of 3-O-methylglucose/s/mg of ROS membrane protein for net uptake and a Km of 29 mM and a Vmax of 1.06 nmol of 3-O-methylglucose/s/mg of ROS membrane protein for equilibrium exchange. These Km values for net uptake and equilibrium exchange are similar to values obtained for human red blood cells and are characteristic of GLUT-1-type glucose transporter. The transport was inhibited by both cytochalasin B and phloretin. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy using type-specific glucose transporter antibodies indicated that both rod and cone outer segment plasma membranes have a GLUT-1 glucose transporter of Mr 45K as found in red blood cells and brain microsomal membranes. Solid-phase radioimmune competitive inhibition studies indicated that rod outer segment plasma membranes contained 15% the number of glucose transporters found in human red blood cell membranes and had an estimated density of 400 glucose transporter per micron2 of plasma membrane. These studies support the view that outer segments can generate energy in the form of ATP and GTP by anaerobic glycolysis to supply at least some of the energy requirements for phototransduction and other metabolic processes. 相似文献

Insulin action on activity and cell surface disposition of human HepG2 glucose transporters expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Complementary DNA encoding a facilitative glucose transporter was isolated from a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2) cDNA library and subcloned into a metal-inducible mammalian expression vector, pLEN (California Biotechnology) containing human metallothionein gene II promoter sequences. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with this transporter expression vector, pLENGT, exhibited a 2-17-fold increase in immunoreactive HepG2-type glucose transporter protein, as measured by protein immunoblotting with antipeptide antibodies directed against the HepG2-type glucose transporter C-terminal domain. Expression of the human glucose transporter was verified by protein immunoblotting with a mouse polyclonal antiserum that recognizes the human but not the rodent HepG2-type transporter. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose uptake was increased 2-7-fold in transfected cell lines. Polyclonal antisera directed against purified red blood cell glucose transporter were raised in several rabbits. Antiserum from one rabbit, delta, was found to bind to the surface of intact red cells but not to inside-out red cell ghosts. Using this delta-antiserum in intact cell-binding assays, 1.6-9-fold increases in cell surface expression of the human glucose transporter were measured in CHO-K1 cell lines transfected with the transporter expression vector. Measurements of total cellular glucose transporter immunoreactive protein using anti-HepG2 transporter C-terminal peptide serum, cell surface glucose transporter protein using delta-antiserum and 2-deoxyglucose uptake revealed proportional relationships among these parameters in transfected cell lines expressing different levels of transporter protein. Insulin increased 2-deoxyglucose uptake 40% in control CHO-K1 cells and in CHO-K1 cells expressing modest levels of the human glucose transporter protein. However, stimulation of sugar-uptake by insulin was only 10% in cells overexpressing human glucose transporter protein 9-fold, and no effect of insulin on sugar uptake was detected in several cell lines expressing very high levels (12-17-fold over controls) of human HepG2 glucose transporter protein. No insulin stimulation of anti-cell surface glucose transporter antibody binding was detected in any control or transfected CHO-K1 cell lines. These data indicate that a glucose transporter protein that is insensitive to insulin in HepG2 cells is regulated by insulin when expressed at low but not at high levels in insulin-response CHO-K1 cells. Additionally, the results suggest that insulin does not increase 2-deoxyglucose uptake by increasing the number of cell surface HepG2-type glucose transporters in CHO-K1 fibroblasts. 相似文献

The hexose transporter family, which mediates facilitated uptake in mammalian cells, consists of more than 10 members containing 12 membrane-spanning segments with a single N-glycosylation site. We previously demonstrated that glucose transporter 1 is organized into a raft-like detergent-resistant membrane domain but that glucose transporter 3 distributes to fluid membrane domains in nonpolarized mammalian cells. In this study, we further examined the structural basis responsible for the distribution by using a series of chimeric constructs. Glucose transporter 1 and glucose transporter 3 with a FLAG-tagged N-terminus were expressed in detergent-resistant membranes and non-detergent-resistant membranes of CHO-K1 cells, respectively. Replacement of either the C-terminal or N-terminal cytosolic portion of FLAG-tagged glucose transporter 1 and glucose transporter 3 did not affect the membrane distribution. However, a critical sorting signal may exist within the N-terminal half of the isoforms without affecting transport activity and its inhibition by cytochalasin B. Further shortening of these regions altered the critical distribution, suggesting that a large proportion or several parts of the intrinsic structure, including the N-terminus of each isoform, are involved in the regulation. 相似文献
