To determine whether the increase in glucose uptake following AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation in adipocytes is mediated by accelerated GLUT4 translocation into plasma membrane, we constructed a chimera between GLUT4 and enhanced green fluorescent protein (GLUT4-eGFP) and transferred its cDNA into the nucleus of 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Then, the dynamics of GLUT4-eGFP translocation were visualized in living cells by means of laser scanning confocal microscopy. It was revealed that the stimulation with 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside (AICAR) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), known activators of AMPK, promptly accelerates its translocation within 4 min, as was found in the case of insulin stimulation. The insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation was markedly inhibited after addition of wortmannin (P < 0.01). However, the GLUT4 translocation through AMPK activators AICAR and DNP was not affected by wortmannin. Insulin- and AMPK-activated translocation of GLUT4 was not inhibited by SB-203580, an inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Glucose uptake was significantly increased after addition of AMPK activators AICAR and DNP (P < 0.05). AMPK- and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake were similarly suppressed by wortmannin (P < 0.05-0.01). In addition, SB-203580 also significantly prevented the enhancement of glucose uptake induced by AMPK and insulin (P < 0.05). These results suggest that AMPK-activated GLUT4 translocation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is mediated through the insulin-signaling pathway distal to the site of activated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase or through a signaling system distinct from that activated by insulin. On the other hand, the increase of glucose uptake dependent on AMPK activators AICAR and DNP would be additionally due to enhancement of the intrinsic activity in translocated GLUT4 protein, possibly through a p38 MAPK-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

We identified 1-(5 chloronaphthalenesulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1, 4-diazepine, also known as ML-9, as a powerful inhibitor of PKB activity in different cells as well as of recombinant PKB. It also inhibits other downstream serine/threonine kinases, such as PKA and p90 S6 kinase, but not upstream tyrosine phosphorylation or PI3-kinase activation in response to insulin. We compared the effects of ML-9 and wortmannin on several insulin-stimulated effects in isolated rat fat cells. Both ML-9 and wortmannin inhibited glucose transport and GLUT4/IGF II receptor translocation to the plasma membrane. In contrast, only wortmannin inhibited the antilipolytic effect and PDE3B activation by insulin. Thus, ML-9 inhibits PKB but not PI3-kinase activation in response to insulin and is useful to differentiate between these effects. Both PI3-kinase and PKB are important for glucose transport and intracellular protein translocation while PKB does not appear to play an important role for the antilipolytic effect or activation of PDE3B in response to insulin. 相似文献

The action of insulin to recruit the intracellular GLUT4 glucose transporter to the plasma membrane of 3T3-L1 adipocytes is mimicked by endothelin 1, which signals through trimeric G(alpha)q or G(alpha)11 proteins. Here we report that murine G(alpha)11 is most abundant in fat and that expression of the constitutively active form of G(alpha)11 [G(alpha)11(Q209L)] in 3T3-L1 adipocytes causes recruitment of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane and stimulation of 2-deoxyglucose uptake. In contrast to the action of insulin on GLUT4, the effects of endothelin 1 and G(alpha)11 were not inhibited by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin at 100 nM. Signaling by insulin, endothelin 1, or G(alpha)11(Q209L) also mobilized cortical F-actin in cultured adipocytes. Importantly, GLUT4 translocation caused by all three agents was blocked upon disassembly of F-actin by latrunculin B, suggesting that the F-actin polymerization caused by these agents may be required for their effects on GLUT4. Remarkably, expression of a dominant inhibitory form of the actin-regulatory GTPase ARF6 [ARF6(T27N)] in cultured adipocytes selectively inhibited both F-actin formation and GLUT4 translocation in response to endothelin 1 but not insulin. These data indicate that ARF6 is a required downstream element in endothelin 1 signaling through G(alpha)11 to regulate cortical actin and GLUT4 translocation in cultured adipocytes, while insulin action involves different signaling pathways. 相似文献

To examine the acquisition of insulin sensitivity after the initial biosynthesis of the insulin-responsive aminopeptidase (IRAP), 3T3-L1 adipocytes were transfected with an enhanced green fluorescent protein-IRAP (EGFP-IRAP) fusion protein. In the absence of insulin, IRAP was rapidly localized (1-3 h) to secretory membranes and retained in these intracellular membrane compartments with little accumulation at the plasma membrane. However, insulin was unable to induce translocation to the plasma membrane until 6-9 h after biosynthesis. This was in marked contrast to another type II membrane protein (syntaxin 3) that rapidly defaulted to the plasma membrane 3 h after expression. In parallel with the time-dependent acquisition of insulin responsiveness, the newly synthesized IRAP protein converted from a brefeldin A-sensitive to a brefeldin A-insensitive state. The initial trafficking of IRAP to the insulin-responsive compartment was independent of plasma membrane endocytosis, as expression of a dominant-interfering dynamin mutant (Dyn/K44A) inhibited transferrin receptor endocytosis but had no effect on the insulin-stimulated translocation of the newly synthesized IRAP protein. 相似文献

Insulin evokes diverse biological effects through receptor-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate (IRS) proteins. Here, we show that, in vitro, the IRS-1, -2 and -3 pleckstrin homology (PH) domains bind with different specificities to the 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides. In fact, the IRS-1 PH domain binds preferentially to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4,5-P3), the IRS-2 PH domain to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4-P2), and the IRS-3 PH domain to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. When expressed in NIH-IR fibroblasts and L6 myocytes, the IRS-1 and -2 PH domains tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP) are localized exclusively in the cytoplasm. Stimulation with insulin causes a translocation of the GFP-IRS-1 and -2 PH domains to the plasma membrane within 3-5 min. This translocation is blocked by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, suggesting that this event is PI 3-K dependent. Interestingly, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) did not induce translocation of the IRS-1 and -2 PH domains to the plasma membrane, indicating the existence of specificity for insulin. In contrast, the GFP-IRS-3 PH domain is constitutively localized to the plasma membrane. These results reveal a differential regulation of the IRS PH domains and a novel positive feedback loop in which PI 3-K functions as both an upstream regulator and a downstream effector of IRS-1 and -2 signaling. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that chronic salt overload increases insulin sensitivity, while chronic salt restriction decreases it. In the present study we investigated the influence of dietary sodium on 1) GLUT4 gene expression, by No the n and Western blotting analysis; 2) in vivo GLUT4 protein translocation, by measuring the GLUT4 protein in plasma membrane and microsome, before and after insulin injection; and 3) insulin signaling, by analyzing basal and insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR)-beta, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, and IRS-2. Wistar rats we e fed no mal-sodium (NS-0.5%), low-sodium (LS-0.06%), o high-sodium diets (HS-3.12%) fo 9 wk and were killed under pentobarbital anesthesia. Compared with NS ats, HS ats inc eased (P < 0.05) the GLUT4 protein in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle, whereas GLUT4 mRNA was increased only in adipose tissue. GLUT4 expression was unchanged in LS ats compared with NS ats. The GLUT4 translocation in HS ats was higher (P < 0.05) both in basal and insulin-stimulated conditions. On the other hand, LS ats did not increase the GLUT4 translocation after insulin stimulus. Compared with NS ats, LS ats showed reduced (P < 0.01) basal and insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 in skeletal muscle and IRS-2 in live, whereas HS ats showed enhanced basal tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 in skeletal muscle (P < 0.05) and of IRS-2 in live. In summary, increased insulin sensitivity in HS ats is elated to increased GLUT4 gene expression, enhanced insulin signaling, and GLUT4 translocation, whereas decreased insulin sensitivity of LS ats does not involve changes in GLUT4 gene expression but is elated to impaired insulin signaling. 相似文献

An elevated content of membrane glycoprotein PC-1 has been observed in cells and tissues of insulin resistant patients. In addition, in vitro overexpression of PC-1 in cultured cells induces insulin resistance associated with diminished insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity. We now find that PC-1 overexpression also influences insulin receptor signaling at a step downstream of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, independent of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. In the present studies, we employed Chinese hamster ovary cells that overexpress the human insulin receptor (CHO IR cells; ∼106 receptors per cell), and transfected them with human PC-1 c-DNA (CHO IR PC-1). In CHO IR PC-1 cells, insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity was unchanged, following insulin treatment of cells. However, several biological effects of insulin, including glucose and amino acid uptake, were decreased. In CHO IR PC-1 cells, insulin stimulation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity was normal, suggesting that PC-1 overexpression did not affect insulin receptor activation of Ras, which is upstream of MAP kinase. Also, insulin-stimulated phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3-kinase activity was normal, suggesting that PC-1 overexpression did not interfere with the activation of this enzyme by insulin receptor substrate-1. In these cells, however, insulin stimulation of p70 ribosomal S6 kinase activity was diminished. These studies suggest, therefore, that, in addition to blocking insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activation, PC-1 can also block insulin receptor signaling at a post-receptor site. J. Cell.

Conventional kinesin KIF5B mediates insulin-stimulated GLUT4 movements on microtubules 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Insulin stimulates glucose uptake in muscle and adipose cells by mobilizing intracellular membrane vesicles containing GLUT4 glucose transporter proteins to the plasma membrane. Here we show in live cultured adipocytes that intracellular membranes containing GLUT4-yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) move along tubulin-cyan fluorescent protein-labeled microtubules in response to insulin by a mechanism that is insensitive to the phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3)-kinase inhibitor wortmannin. Insulin increased by several fold the observed frequencies, but not velocities, of long-range movements of GLUT4-YFP on microtubules, both away from and towards the perinuclear region. Genomics screens show conventional kinesin KIF5B is highly expressed in adipocytes and this kinesin is partially co-localized with perinuclear GLUT4. Dominant-negative mutants of conventional kinesin light chain blocked outward GLUT4 vesicle movements and translocation of exofacial Myc-tagged GLUT4-green fluorescent protein to the plasma membrane in response to insulin. These data reveal that insulin signaling targets the engagement or initiates the movement of GLUT4-containing membranes on microtubules via conventional kinesin through a PI3-kinase-independent mechanism. This insulin signaling pathway regulating KIF5B function appears to be required for GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and induces translocation of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane in skeletal muscle. We determined the molecular mechanism by which insulin regulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in differentiated primary human skeletal muscle cells (HSMCs). Insulin action on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was dependent on ERK1/2 in HSMCs. Sequence analysis of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunits revealed several potential ERK phosphorylation sites. Insulin increased ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb(+) uptake and [(3)H]ouabain binding in intact cells. Insulin also increased phosphorylation and plasma membrane content of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)- and alpha(2)-subunits. Insulin-stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activation, phosphorylation, and translocation of alpha-subunits to the plasma membrane were abolished by 20 microm PD98059, which is an inhibitor of MEK1/2, an upstream kinase of ERK1/2. Furthermore, inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (100 nm wortmannin) and protein kinase C (10 microm GF109203X) had similar effects. Notably, insulin-stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation was abolished by wortmannin and GF109203X in HSMCs. Insulin also stimulated phosphorylation of alpha(1)- and alpha(2)-subunits on Thr-Pro amino acid motifs, which form specific ERK substrates. Furthermore, recombinant ERK1 and -2 kinases were able to phosphorylate alpha-subunit of purified human Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in vitro. In conclusion, insulin stimulates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and translocation to plasma membrane in HSMCs via phosphorylation of the alpha-subunits by ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase. 相似文献

Insulin stimulates glucose transport in insulin target tissues by recruiting glucose transporters (primarily GLUT4) from an intracellular compartment to the cell surface. Previous studies have demonstrated that insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity and subsequent phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) contribute to mediating the effect of insulin on glucose transport. We have now investigated the roles of 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) and ras, two signaling proteins located downstream from tyrosine phosphorylation. Rat adipose cells were cotransfected with expression vectors that allowed transient expression of epitope-tagged GLUT4 and the other genes of interest. Overexpression of a mutant p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase lacking the ability to bind and activate the p110 catalytic subunit exerted a dominant negative effect to inhibit insulin-stimulated translocation of epitope-tagged GLUT4 to the cell surface. In addition, treatment of control cells with wortmannin (an inhibitor of PI 3-kinase) abolished the ability of insulin to recruit epitope-tagged GLUT4 to the cell surface. Thus, our data suggest that PI 3-kinase plays an essential role in insulin-stimulated GLUT4 recruitment in insulin target tissues. In contrast, over-expression of a constitutively active mutant of ras (L61-ras) resulted in high levels of cell surface GLUT4 in the absence of insulin that were comparable to levels seen in control cells treated with a maximally stimulating dose of insulin. However, wortmannin treatment of cells overexpressing L61-ras resulted in only a small decrease in the amount of cell surface GLUT4 compared with that of the same cells in the absence of wortmannin. Therefore, while activated ras is sufficient to recruit GLUT4 to the cell surface, it does so by a different mechanism that is probably not involved in the mechanism by which insulin stimulates GLUT4 translocation in physiological target tissues. 相似文献

In a recent study we have demonstrated that 3T3-L1 adipocytes exposed to low micromolar H2O2 concentrations display impaired insulin stimulated GLUT4 translocation from internal membrane pools to the plasma membrane (Rudich, A., Tirosh, A., Potashnik, R., Hemi, R., Kannety, H., and Bashan, N. (1998) Diabetes 47, 1562-1569). In this study we further characterize the cellular mechanisms responsible for this observation. Two-hour exposure to approximately 25 microM H2O2 (generated by adding glucose oxidase to the medium) resulted in disruption of the normal insulin stimulated insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase cellular redistribution between the cytosol and an internal membrane pool (low density microsomal fraction (LDM)). This was associated with reduced insulin-stimulated IRS-1 and p85-associated PI 3-kinase activities in the LDM (84 and 96% inhibition, respectively). The effect of this finding on the downstream insulin signal was demonstrated by a 90% reduction in insulin stimulated protein kinase B (PKB) serine 473 phosphorylation and impaired activation of PKBalpha and PKBgamma. Both control and oxidized cells exposed to heat shock displayed a wortmannin insensitive PKB serine phosphorylation and activity. These data suggest that activation of PKB and GLUT4 translocation are insulin signaling events dependent upon a normal insulin induced cellular compartmentalization of PI 3-kinase and IRS-1, which is oxidative stress-sensitive. These findings represent a novel cellular mechanism for the induction of insulin resistance in response to changes in the extracellular environment. 相似文献

We determined insulin-stimulated Na(+),K(+)-ATPase isoform-specific translocation to the skeletal muscle plasma membrane. When rat muscle plasma membrane fractions were isolated by discontinuous sucrose gradients, insulin-stimulated translocation of alpha(2)- but not alpha(1)-subunits was detected. However, using cell surface biotinylation techniques, an insulin-induced membrane translocation of both alpha(1) and alpha(2)-subunits in rat epitrochlearis muscle and cultured human skeletal muscle cells was noted. Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit translocation was abolished by the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin, as well as by the protein kinase C inhibitor GF109203X. Thus, insulin mediates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)- and alpha(2)-subunit translocation to the skeletal muscle plasma membrane via a PI 3-kinase-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) are serine/threonine kinases that desensitize agonist-occupied classical GPCRs. Although the insulin receptor (IR) is a tyrosine kinase receptor, the IR also couples to G-proteins and utilizes G-protein signaling components. The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that GRK2 negatively regulates IR signaling. FL83B cells, derived from mouse liver, were treated with insulin and membrane translocation of GRK2 was determined using immunofluoresecence and Western blotting. Insulin caused an increase in the translocation of GRK-2 from cytosol to the plasma membrane. To determine the role of GRK2 in IR signaling, GRK2 was selectively down-regulated ( approximately by 90%) in FL83B cells using a small interfering RNA technique. Basal as well as insulin-induced glycogen synthesis (measured by d-[U-(14)C]glucose incorporation) was increased in GRK2-deficient cells compared with control cells. Similarly, GRK2 deficiency increased the basal and insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Ser(21) in glycogen synthase kinase-3alpha. Insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the IR was similar in control and GRK2-deficient cells. Basal and insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Tyr(612) in insulin receptor subunit 1 was significantly increased while phosphorylation of Ser(307) was decreased in GRK2-deficient FL83B cells compared with control cells. Chronic insulin treatment (24 h) in control cells caused an increase in GRK2 (56%) and a decrease in IR (50%) expression associated with the absence of an increase in glycogen synthesis, suggesting impairment of IR function. However, chronic insulin treatment (24 h) did not decrease IR expression or impair IR effects on glycogen synthesis in GRK2-deficient cells. We conclude that (i) GRK2 negatively regulates basal and insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis via a post-IR signaling mechanism, and (ii) GRK2 may contribute to reduced IR expression and function during chronic insulin exposure. 相似文献

Chromium picolinate (CrPic) has been indicated to activate glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) trafficking to the plasma membrane
(PM) to enhance glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. In skeletal and heart muscle cells, insulin directs the intracellular
trafficking of the fatty acid translocase/CD36 to induce the uptake of cellular long-chain fatty acid (LCFA). The current
study describes the effects of CrPic and insulin on the translocation of CD36 from intracellular storage pools to the PM in
3T3-L1 adipocytes in comparison with that of GLUT4. Immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoblotting revealed that both CD36
and GLUT4 were expressed and primarily located intracellularly in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Upon insulin or CrPic stimulation, PM
expression of CD36 increased in a similar manner as that for GLUT4; the CrPic-stimulated PM expression was less strong than
that of insulin. The increase in PM localization for these two proteins by insulin paralleled LCFA ([1-14C]palmitate) or [3H]deoxyglucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The induction of the PM expression of GLUT4, but not CD36, or substrate uptake
by insulin and CrPic appears to be additive in adipocytes. Furthermore, wortmannin completely inhibited the insulin-stimulated
translocation of GLUT4 or CD36 and prevented the increased uptake of glucose or LCFA in these cells. Taken together, for the
first time, these findings suggest that both insulin and CrPic induce CD36 translocation to the PM in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and
that their translocation-inducing effects are not additive. The signaling pathway inducing the translocations is different,
apparently resulting in a differential activity of CD36. 相似文献

Context: Ginsenoside Rb1 improves insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in muscle cells via different signaling pathways; however, it is not clear that it has any effect on leptin signaling in skeletal muscle.Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rb1 on leptin receptors expression and main signaling pathways of leptin (STAT3, PI3 kinase and ERK kinase) in C2C12 skeletal muscle cells.Materials and methods: C2C12 myotubes were incubated with various concentrations of Rb1 (0.1, 1 and 10?μM) for different incubation times (1–12?h). Leptin receptors expression and GLUT-4 translocation were analyzed using realtime PCR and western blot analyses, respectively. PI3 and ERK kinases were blocked using their specific inhibitors (wortmannin and PD98059) in the presence and absence of RB1 to determine the main signaling pathway related to leptin receptor activation in C2C12 cells.Results: Rb1 could maximally stimulate both leptin receptors (OBRa and OBRb) mRNA and protein expression and phosphorylation of STAT3, PI3K and ERK2 in C2C12 myotubes at 10?μM for 3?h. Rb1 induced GLUT4 translocation was inhibited by the silencing of OBRb mRNA, demonstrated that glucose uptake was mediated via leptin receptor activation. GLUT4 recruitment to the cell surface induced by Rb1 was inhibited by wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI3K in combination with OBRb siRNA, but not by PD98059 an ERK2 kinase-1 inhibitor, indicating that GLUT4 translocation induced by Rb1 was associated with the leptin receptor upregulation and subsequent activation of PI3K.Conclusions: Our results suggest that Rb1 promote translocation of GLUT4 by upregulation of leptin receptors and activation of PI3K. 相似文献

TRPC6 is a cation channel in the plasma membrane that plays a role in Ca(2+) entry after the stimulation of a G(q)-protein-coupled or tyrosine-kinase receptor. TRPC6 translocates to the plasma membrane upon stimulation and remains there as long as the stimulus is present. However, the mechanism that regulates the trafficking and activation of TRPC6 are unclear. In this study we showed phosphoinositide 3-kinase and its antagonistic phosphatase, PTEN, are involved in the activation of TRPC6. The inhibition of PI3K by PIK-93, LY294002, or wortmannin decreased carbachol-induced translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and carbachol-induced net Ca(2+) entry into T6.11 cells. Conversely, a reduction of PTEN expression did not affect carbachol-induced externalization of TRPC6 but increased Ca(2+) entry through TRPC6 in T6.11 cells. We also showed that the PI3K/PTEN pathway regulates vasopressin-induced translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and vasopressin-induced Ca(2+) entry into A7r5 cells, which endogenously express TRPC6. In summary, we provided evidence that the PI3K/PTEN pathway plays an important role in the translocation of TRPC6 to the plasma membrane and may thus have a significant impact on Ca(2+) signaling in cells that endogenously express TRPC6. 相似文献

The present study examined the effects of exogenous insulin on C-peptide release in relation to islet activities of neural constitutive nitric oxide synthase (ncNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS). The dose-response curves for glucose-stimulated insulin and C-peptide release from isolated islets were practically identical: 0.05-0.1 nmol/l insulin stimulated, 1-100 nmol/l had no effect, whereas concentrations >/=250 nmol/l ("high insulin"), inhibited C-peptide release. Both the stimulatory and inhibitory effects were abolished by the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase inhibitor wortmannin. Addition of a NOS inhibitor partially reversed the inhibitory action of high insulin, but had no effect on the stimulatory action of low insulin (0.1 nmol/l). Moreover, high insulin markedly increased islet ncNOS activity and induced a strong iNOS activity. As shown biochemically and with confocal microscopy, the stimulatory action of high insulin on NOS activities and the associated inhibition of C-peptide release were reversed by raising cyclic AMP through addition of either glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) or dibutyryl cyclic AMP (Bt(2)cAMP) to the incubated islets. We conclude that the positive feedback mechanisms of action of insulin are independent of islet NOS activities and remain unclear. The negative feedback action of insulin, however, can be explained by its ability to stimulate both islet ncNOS activity and the expression and activity of iNOS. The effects on iNOS are most likely transduced through phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase and are counteracted by raising islet cyclic AMP levels. 相似文献

Zinc (Zn) is an essential trace element with multiple regulatory functions, involving insulin synthesis, secretion, signaling and glucose transport. Since 2000, we have proposed that Zn complexes with different coordination environments exhibit high insulinomimetic and antidiabetic activities in type 2 diabetic animals. However, the molecular mechanism for the activities is still unsolved. The purpose of this study was to reveal the molecular mechanism of several types of Zn complexes in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, with respect to insulin signaling pathway. Obtained results shows that bis(1-oxy-2-pyridine-thiolato)Zn(II), Zn(opt)2, with S(2)O(2) coordination environment induced most strongly Akt/protein kinase B (Akt/PKB) phosphorylation, in which the optimal phosphorylation was achieved at a concentration of 25 microM, and this Zn(opt)2-induced Akt/PKB phosphorylation was inhibited by wortmannin at 100 nM. Further, the phosphorylation was maximal at 5-10 min stimulation, in agreement with the Zn uptake which was also maximal at 5-10 min stimulation. The Akt/PKB phosphorylation was in concentration- and time-dependent manners. Zn(opt)2 was also capable to translocate GLUT4 protein to the plasma membrane. We conclude that Zn(opt)2 was revealed to exhibit both insulinomimetic and antidiabetic activities by activating insulin signaling cascade through Akt/PKB phosphorylation, which in turn caused the GLUT4 translocation from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. 相似文献
