Phosphorylation of cellular proteins was stimulated in a dose-dependent manner by the surface binding of IgG antibodies to antigens on L cells. Most prominent among the phosphorylated cellular proteins were Mr = 115,000, 93,000, 58,000, 38,000, and 33,000 proteins. Stimulation of protein phosphorylation was maximal at 48 hr of incubation and was preceeded by maximal stimulated uridine incorporation into RNA (0-24 hr) and thymidine incorporation into DNA (24-48 hr), and followed by maximal stimulated cell proliferation occurring at 72 hr (P less than 0.001 for all differences). Modification of the ligand IgG molecule by formation of complexes with protein A (PA) altered the stimulation patterns of protein phosphorylation: [(IgG)2(PA)]2, Mr = 716,000, enhanced and (IgG)(PA), Mr = 200,000, inhibited phosphorylation. The nature of the cell surface antigen(s) was partially clarified by the demonstration that affinity-purified antibodies to cytoskeletal proteins (principally a surface actin molecule) accounted for a significant part of the stimulation effect. Thus, perturbation of the L-cell membrane by certain molecular forms of anti-actin IgG antibody produces a transmembrane signal resulting in an orderly series of metabolic events including enhanced protein phosphorylation at 48 hr occurring just prior to enhanced cell growth. 相似文献

Endogenous inhibitor of protein kinases (type II inhibitor, GABA-modulin) blocks the phosphorylation catalyzed by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) as a competitive inhibitor of substrate proteins when histone is used as a substrate. Moreover, type II inhibitor blocks the phosphorylation of endogenous membrane proteins by PKC. Stimulation of alpha 1-adrenoceptors induced rapid redistribution of PKC from cytosol to membrane fraction which lasted at least 3 h, accompanied by rapid and short-lasting translocation of type II inhibitor from membrane to cytosol fraction. The cytosol content of type II inhibitor reached maximal level 10 and 20 min and became normal again 40 min after i.p. administration of methoxamine. The above actions of methoxamine were completely blocked by pretreatment with prazosin. It seems that short-lasting redistribution of type II inhibitor from membrane to cytosol fraction allows the effective phosphorylation of membrane proteins by PKC after stimulation of alpha 1-adrenoceptors. 相似文献

Myocardial acidic non-histone nuclear proteins (NHPs) contain endogenous protein kinase activity. Phosphocellulose chromatography of purified NHPs identifies nine separate peaks of protein kinases which can phosphorylate both endogenous and exogenous substrates to a variable degree; endogenous NHPs are the best substrates. Cyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase induced phosphorylation of endogenous and exogenous substrates; the extent of this stimulation varied according to the protein kinase fraction and substrate used. Cyclic AMP also enhanced NHP-induced stimulation of RNA polymerase activity. This enhancement was dependent on protein kinase-induced phosphorylation of NHPs since it was prevented by alkaline phosphatase pretreatment. It is concluded that nuclear protein kinases regulate myocardial RNA synthesis by enhancing phosphorylation of NHPs and that this regulation is under cyclic AMP control. 相似文献

Glutamine synthetase (GS) activity is enhanced in cultured whole retinas when a 72 h incubation at 37 degrees C is preceded by storage at 4 degrees C for 2-24 h. This enhancement occurs even in the absence of glucocorticoids and is maximal in retinas from 11 to 14 d embryos. In comparison, cortisol-induced increases in retinal GS activity at 37 degrees C are optimal in retinas from 8 to 12 d embryos. This study, using cycloheximide (an inhibitor of protein synthesis) and cordycepin (an inhibitor of RNA synthesis), indicates that both protein and RNA synthesis are required for the 4 degrees C storage enhancement of GS activity. The necessary RNA synthesis occurs within the first 48 h following transfer to 37 degrees C and does not require concomitant protein synthesis. Uridine uptake, but not incorporation into trichloroacetic acid-precipitable material, is increased by initial 4 degrees C storage when compared with whole retina controls incubated at 37 degrees C for the total time. In contrast, both uptake and incorporation of amino acids are increased in 4 degrees C-stored retinas for as long as 72 h subsequent to transfer from 4 to 37 degrees C. This suggests that enhancement GS activity may arise from a combination of elevated general protein synthesis and specific messenger-RNA synthesis following 4 degrees C storage. 相似文献

Gastric mucosal membranes derived primarily from parietal cells were found to contain endogenous protein kinase systems as well as several phosphate-accepting substrates. One specific membrane protein with a molecular weight of 88 000 was phosphorylated only in the presence of calcium, while the degree of phosphorylation of three other membrane proteins was similarly increased. The activity of the calcium-dependent protein kinase was found to be totally inhibited in the presence of trifluoperazine, a phenothiazine known to specifically inactivate calmodulin. These results suggest that a calmodulin- and calcium-dependent phosphorylation system may be a component of the parietal cell membrane. Phosphorylation of the membrane proteins was not affected by either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP. The heat-stable inhibitor protein of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase did not inhibit the endogenous protein kinase activity suggesting that the membrane enzyme is not similar to the cytosolic protein kinase. However, the catalytic subunit of the soluble enzyme was capable of phosphorylating a number of membrane proteins indicating that after maximal autophosphorylation of the gastric membranes, phosphate-acceptor sites are still available to the cytosolic cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

The phosphorylation of proteins in intact mouse spleen lymphocytes was monitored following mitogenic activation. Little change in the autoradiographic patterns of phosphorylated protein fractionated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis occurred during the first 8 h after Concanavalin A (conA) treatment. The intensity of 32P incorporation into two proteins of 135 000 and 150 000 mol. wt began to increase, relative to control cells, 10 h after conA treatment and was maximal at 50 h. This increased phosphorylation followed the rise in RNA synthesis but preceded the onset of DNA synthesis. In addition to this temporal link between enhanced phosphorylation of these proteins and the initiation of DNA synthesis, various agents which inhibited the onset of S phase also blocked the phosphorylation of both proteins. Such treatments included the displacement of conA from its surface receptors by α-methyl-mannoside (αMM), the omission of serum from the culture medium, and the presence of indomethacin. The similar time courses of phosphorylation and responses to various proliferation inhibitors supports the idea that the 135 000 and 150 000 mol. wt proteins have a common physiological function. These proteins may be involved in the progression of stimulated lymphocytes toward S phase, and their phosphorylation may be an important regulatory event in this sequence. 相似文献

Glutamine synthetase (GS) activity is enhanced in cultured whole retinas when a 72 h incubation at 37°C is preceded by storage
at 4°C for 2–24 h. This enhancement occurs even in the absence of glucocorticoids and is maximal in retinas from 11 to 14
d embryos. In comparison, cortisol-induced increases in retinal GS activity at 37°C are optimal in retinas from 8 to 12 d
embryos.

that both protein and RNA synthesis are required for the 4°C storage enhancement of GS activity. The necessary RNA synthesis

Co-ordinated changes in the cyclic AMP signalling system and the phosphorylation of two nuclear proteins of Mr 130,000 and 110,000 during proliferative stimulation of the rat parotid gland by isoprenaline. Possible identity of the two proteins with pp135 and nucleolin.

Parotid glands were stimulated to growth by repeated injection of the beta-agonist isoprenaline into rats. Incubation of intact parotid-gland lobules with [32P]Pi and subsequent analysis of nuclear proteins revealed in the stimulated glands an increased 32P incorporation into two acid-soluble non-histone proteins with apparent Mr values of 110,000 and 130,000 (p110 and p130). After a single injection of isoprenaline, leading to a biphasic increase in DNA synthesis (maximum at 24 h), the same two proteins showed a transiently increased 32P incorporation at 17 h after injection. At this time point at the onset of DNA synthesis the total activity of soluble cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase decreased. No change in p110/p130 phosphorylation was observed at 0.3 h after stimulation, a time of maximal stimulation of secretion. Administration of the beta-antagonist propranolol 8 h after the injection of isoprenaline suppressed the increase in DNA synthesis, the preceding changes in the concentration of cyclic AMP and in the activity of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, as well as the increased phosphorylation of p110 and p130. Cross-reactivity of p110 and p130 with specific antisera against two nucleolar phosphoproteins of similar molecular mass (nucleolin and pp135), as well as their localization in a nucleolar cell fraction, indicated a possible identity of p110 and p130 with these two proteins. Our results suggest that nucleolin and pp135 are nuclear target proteins of cyclic AMP in the cyclic AMP-influenced regulation of the transition of cells from the G1 to the S phase. 相似文献

A detergent extract isolated from the enriched fraction of integral membrane proteins of Jurkat cells showed an enhanced tyrosine phosphate level when phosphorylated in the presence of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu). The enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation was observed when the reaction time exceeded 6 min; at shorter incubation times, however, TPA inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation. When the reaction proceeded for a constant time period longer than 6 min and phorbol esters were added at different times after the start of the reaction, two phases of an enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of a 50 kDa protein were observed. An increased phosphorylation of the 50 kDa protein was correlated with an enhanced phosphorylation of poly(Glu4,Tyr1). The two phases of enhanced phosphorylation differed in their TPA and PDBu requirement and in the proteins that were tyrosine phosphorylated. Studies with protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors showed a negatively correlated effect on the enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation in phase I; tyrosine phosphorylation was further augmented. In phase II the regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation correlated with the efficiency of the PKC inhibitors on the alpha-isoform of PKC which was found in the cell extract. Separation of the proteins present in the investigated cell extract by gel filtration revealed a co-migration of the alpha-PKC and the 50 kDa protein. The metabolic labeling of intact Jurkat cells with 32Pi indicated that phorbol esters are also able to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of the 50 kDa protein underin vivo conditions. These data suggest an activation of two different tyrosine phosphorylation pathways by phorbol esters involving tyrosine phosphorylation/autophosphorylation of a 50 kDa kinase, as confirmed by 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (FSBA) labeling, that are accurately regulated by alpha-PKC. 相似文献

Early Events in Lymphocyte Transformation by Phytohaemagglutinin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Synthesis and phosphorylation of three main nuclear protein fractions were studied in human lymphocytes stimulated by phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). The first fraction to be synthesized and phosphorylated after induction was that of the acidic proteins, followed by that containing the soluble proteins. Synthesis of histories commenced 24 h after exposure to PHA. Distinctive patterns of both synthesis and phosphorylation of the acidic proteins were recorded at different times in the cell cycle, which may reflect activation or suppression of specific cellular functions. Phosphorylation of the histones also occurred, as an early event during lymphocyte transformation and also much later, at the time of DNA synthesis. 相似文献

The effects of phorbol esters, dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8), and micromolar Ca2+ on protein phosphorylation and catecholamine secretion in digitonin-treated chromaffin cells were investigated. [gamma-32P]ATP was used as a substrate for phosphorylation in the permeabilized cells. 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) enhanced Ca2+-dependent catecholamine secretion from digitonin-permeabilized cells. The enhancement required MgATP. Only those phorbol esters which activate protein kinase C in vitro enhanced both catecholamine secretion and protein phosphorylation. DiC8, which activates protein kinase C in vitro and mimics phorbol ester effects in situ, also enhanced both catecholamine secretion and protein phosphorylation. Preincubation of intact cells with TPA or DiC8 was necessary for maximal effects on both catecholamine secretion and protein phosphorylation in subsequently digitonin-treated chromaffin cells. The TPA-induced enhancement of protein phosphorylation was almost entirely Ca2+-independent, whereas DiC8-induced enhancement of protein phosphorylation was mainly Ca2+-dependent. Micromolar Ca2+ alone also enhanced the phosphorylation of a large number of proteins. Most of the proteins phosphorylated in response to TPA or potentiated by DiC8 in combination with Ca2+ were also phosphorylated by micromolar Ca2+ in the absence of exogenous protein kinase C activators. In intact cells, 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazinium (DMPP) induced Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of at least 17 proteins which were detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. All of the proteins phosphorylated upon incubation with 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazinium were phosphorylated upon incubation with micromolar Ca2+ in digitonin-treated cells. These results demonstrate that TPA- or DiC8-enhanced Ca2+-dependent catecholamine secretion is associated with enhanced protein phosphorylation which is probably mediated by protein kinase C and that activation of protein kinase C modulates catecholamine secretion from digitonin-treated chromaffin cells. 相似文献

IMR90 human fibroblasts were labelled by incubation of cells for 48 h in medium containing 10% serum and [3H]leucine. The labelled protein was degraded at a rate of 1%/h during a subsequent incubation in medium with 10% serum. Incubation in medium without serum caused a transient enhancement of the degradation of endogenous protein, which was also found in cells labelled in medium without serum. The degradation of micro-injected haemoglobin was enhanced by serum deprivation in a non-transient manner. These results suggest that enhanced degradation in serum-free medium occurs only for a subpopulation of cell proteins and that it appears transient because the major part of the pool of susceptible endogenous proteins is being degraded during the first 20-30 h in serum-free unlabelled medium. Protein turnover in various cell compartments was measured by a double-labelling technique. Most of the enhanced degradation in serum-deprived cultures (73-83%) was due to breakdown of cytosolic proteins. The enhanced degradation of cytosolic proteins seemed to affect several proteins irrespective of their molecular mass or metabolic stability. 相似文献

We have characterized the induction of glucose-regulated proteins (GRPs) in Xenopus laevis A6 cells, a kidney epithelial cell line. Exposure of A6 cells to medium in which 2-deoxyglucose replaced galactose resulted in enhanced synthesis of two proteins at 78 and 98 kd. The 78 kd protein was determined by two-dimensional PAGE to consist of two isoelectric variants with pls of 5.3 and 5.2 whereas the 98 kd protein resolved into a single spot with a pl of 5.1. The 78 kd protein cross-reacted with antiserum against chicken GRP78 (glucose-regulated protein), suggesting that the Xenopus protein shares homology with a previously characterized GRP. This was supported by the finding that a rat GRP78 probe hybridized with a 2-deoxyglucose-inducible mRNA. Synthesis of the two proteins was also induced by tunicamycin, 2-deoxygalactose, and dithiothreitol. However, the GRPs were not induced by glucosamine or calcium ionophore A23187 at concentrations and exposure periods that have previously been shown to elicit a GRP response in mammalian and avian cells. Enhanced synthesis of the two GRPs by 2-deoxyglucose was transient, reaching maximal levels by 12-24 h and decreasing to near control levels by 48 h. Removal of the stress at the point of peak synthesis resulted in decreased synthesis of both proteins within 6 h and a return to control levels within 24 h of recovery. These data suggest that Xenopus cells have a GRP response that is similar, but not identical, to that found in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Hepatocytes from adult and 4-week-old rats cultured on one of several extracellular matrix components were stimulated to replicate by epidermal growth factor (EGF). DNA synthesis was increased at 44-48 hr in adult hepatocytes and at 24, 48, and 72 hr in hepatocytes from young rats when EGF was added 2 hr after explantation. When EGF was added at 24 hr, maximal DNA synthesis of adult hepatocytes was observed at 48 hr, whereas that of 4-week-old hepatocytes was seen at 48 and 72 hr. Ten ng EGF per ml was the optimal concentration for maximal DNA synthesis in both adult and young cells. DNA synthesis decreased with increasing cell density, but this effect was less in hepatocytes from young than in those from adults. When hepatocytes were cultured on substrata consisting of individual extracellular matrix components, neither the time that adult cells needed to respond to EGF nor the time from stimulation by EGF to the peak of maximal DNA synthesis was altered in either adult or young cells. The optimal EGF concentration for maximal DNA synthesis and the cell density control of replication were also not altered by the substrata used. Substrata made from each of the extracellular matrix components studied enhanced DNA synthesis of adult and young hepatocytes stimulated by EGF in the following decreasing order: fibronectin, type IV collagen, type I collagen, and laminin. In both adult and young hepatocytes the enhancement of DNA synthesis was greatest when cultured on fibronectin. Thus the initiation and magnitude of DNA synthesis in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were altered both by the age of the donor and the substratum on which the cells were explanted. 相似文献

Differential protein synthesis in the induction of thyroid cell proliferation by thyrotropin, epidermal growth factor or serum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Protein synthesis in the G1 period of the cell cycle has been investigated using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in primary cultures of dog quiescent thyroid cells, incubated in defined medium and induced to proliferate by the combined action of thyrotropin (TSH), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and serum or by each of these agents, acting alone. The analysis of the proteins, pulse-labeled for 3 h with [35S]methionine, in quiescent cells deprived of serum and in cells that had been stimulated for various periods of time by the addition of TSH, EGF and serum showed maximal modifications before entry into S phase: the labeling of at least ten proteins was enhanced while that of at least six proteins was decreased. The synthesis of one of these proteins (protein 1; Mr approximately equal to 81 000) was maximal 9-12 h after stimulation by the proliferative agents but began to decrease at 15-18 h and was still decreased at 29-32 h. The study of the effect of each of the proliferation agents alone on the labeling of these sixteen proteins showed that TSH specifically stimulated the labeling of eight polypeptides (proteins 2-9) and that, in contrast, EGF and serum specifically increased the labeling of two other proteins (proteins 1 and 10). The labeling of one protein was decreased by each of the different agents (protein 6') while TSH specifically decreased the labeling of four polypeptides (proteins 1'-4') and increased the labeling of one polypeptide (protein 5') whose synthesis was decreased by EGF and serum. The specific effect of TSH on one protein labeling (protein 7; Mr approximately equal to 39 000) was potentiated by EGF and serum while the specific effect of EGF and serum on another protein labeling (protein 1) was potentiated by TSH. There is thus a correlation between the level of synthesis of these two proteins and the proliferative state of the cells, which is much greater when the stimulating agents are acting together. The induction of protein 1 synthesis by EGF was no longer observed when the cells were no longer proliferating. In the same way, TSH no longer stimulated the synthesis of protein 7 in thyroid cells at confluence. In conclusion, the present study has identified some proteins (proteins 1 and 7) which, as judged by the peculiar stimulation and the kinetics of their synthesis, could be part of the final key events triggering DNA replication in thyroid cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Protein phosphorylation has been shown to alter various plasma membrane functions. To investigate the role of phosphorylation in human placental trophoblast, microvillous membrane vesicles were incubated with [gamma-32-P]ATP and the phosphorylation of endogenous and exogenous protein substrates was measured. The microvillous membrane was shown to possess both adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-independent and cAMP-dependent kinases. Both endogenous proteins and exogenous proteins were phosphorylated and these processes were enhanced by the presence of Triton or the ionophore alamethicin. The phosphorylation of histone and of endogenous peptides of molecular weights (MW) 147 000, 97 000 and 53 000 was increased by the addition of cAMP. cAMP stimulation required the presence of Triton or alamethicin. The cAMP-dependent kinases are apparently located at the internal (cytoplasmic) surface of the membrane. This location would allow stimulation by cAMP produced by the basal (fetal-facing) plasma membrane. cAMP-stimulated protein phosphorylation may serve as a means of communication between the syncytial plasma membranes facing the fetal and maternal surfaces. 相似文献

Summary This study provides information on the rates of DNA synthesis, sites of DNA synthesis, and DNA content of the avian salt gland during the osmoticstressing (plasma membrane synthesis) and destressing (plasma membrane turnover) cycle, in an effort to better understand the relationship of cell turnover to the initial events in plasma membrane amplification, differentiation, and turnover. The rate of DNA synthesis increases 12–24 h after the onset of osmotic stress, is maximal at about 24 h of osmotic stress, and decreases thereafter in fully stressed and destressed glands. The maximum DNA and protein content, and the maximum protein/DNA ratio are obtained after about 3 days of stress. Autoradiograms show that at 24 h of stress 70–80% of DNA synthesis occurs in connective tissue cells and 20–30% in parenchymal cells, but by 6 days of stress, synthesis occurs about equally in these cell groups. Because destressing is characterized by a large decrease in plasma membrane and in glandular protein, but by little DNA turnover or loss, the loss of plasma membrane is likely due to some type of cell dedifferentiation rather than cell turnover. 相似文献

We have previously shown that 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) inhibits the phosphorylation of erythrocyte membrane cytoskeletal proteins by endogenous casein kinases. Here, we report that 2,3-DPG stimulates the phosphorylation of protein 4.1 by protein kinase C. Studies with red cell membrane preparations showed that while the phosphorylation of most of the membrane proteins by endogenous membrane-bound kinases and purified kinase C was inhibited by 2,3-DPG, the phosphorylation of protein 4.1 was slightly enhanced by the metabolite. The effect of 2,3-DPG was further examined using purified protein 4.1 preparations. Our results indicate that 2,3-DPG stimulates both the rate and the extent of phosphorylation of purified protein 4.1 by kinase C. The amount of phosphate incorporated was found to double to 2 mol of phosphate per mole of protein 4.1 in the presence of 10 mM 2,3-DPG. The increase in phosphorylation was distributed over all phosphorylation sites as revealed by an analysis of the labeling patterns of phosphopeptides resolved by high performance liquid chromatography, but a significantly higher incorporation was detected in two of the phosphopeptides. The stimulatory effect of 2,3-DPG on the phosphorylation of protein 4.1 was observed only with kinase C. Phosphorylation by the cytosolic erythrocyte casein kinase and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was inhibited by 2,3-DPG. Moreover, the stimulatory effect of 2,3-DPG seemed to be unique to the phosphorylation of protein 4.1 since a similar effect had not been observed with other protein kinase C substrates. Our results suggest that 2,3-DPG may play an important role in the regulation of cytoskeletal interactions. 相似文献

Spontaneously beating heart myocytes were prepared from adult rat ventricular tissues to study the correlation between beta-adrenergic receptor-stimulated changes in contractile performance and protein phosphorylation in vitro. The plasma membrane of isolated myocardial cells was permeabilized by saponin in the presence of EGTA and Mg-ATP. The permeabilized myocytes, which formed a homogeneous cell population, retained the rod-cell morphology of heart cells in situ and showed spontaneous cyclic contractions. Their contractile activity in response to extracellularly added cAMP mimicked the effects caused by beta-adrenergic stimulation of the whole heart: both the frequency and longitudinal velocity of free contraction and relaxation of the cells increased. Similar increases were observed when beta-agonist, isoproterenol, and GTP were added to suspending medium. In addition, isoproterenol maximally enhanced the adenylate cyclase activity of the cells in the presence of GTP. Both of these effects of isoproterenol were completely blocked by the beta-antagonist propranolol. cAMP-mediated phosphorylation of proteins in the permeabilized myocytes was investigated under conditions in which the beating frequency increased. cAMP elevated the phosphorylation level of five proteins; three of them with apparent molecular masses of 24, 15, and 12 kDa were membrane proteins and the other two with apparent molecular masses of 150 and 28 kDa were myofibrillar proteins. The 24-kDa phosphoprotein dissociated into 12-kDa molecules when boiled in sodium dodecyl sulfate, suggesting that these proteins are oligomeric and monomeric forms of phospholamban. The phosphorylation of these five proteins was stimulated by isoproterenol. The effect of isoproterenol was enhanced by GTP but completely blocked by propranolol. The time course of their phosphorylation correlated well with that of the increase in the beating frequency of the cells; both were measured after the administration of isoproterenol and GTP. When propranolol was added after the start of the stimulation by isoproterenol, only phospholamban and the 15-kDa protein were rapidly dephosphorylated in close correlation with the decrease of the beating frequency. These results demonstrate for the first time that the permeabilized myocytes retain the functional beta-adrenergic receptor and cellular responses to beta-adrenergic stimulation. They also suggest that cAMP-mediated phosphorylation of proteins, possibly phospholamban and/or the 15-kDa protein, is involved in the increased contractile activity of permeabilized heart cells. 相似文献

We recently showed that resistance exercise and ingestion of essential amino acids with carbohydrate (EAA+CHO) can independently stimulate mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling and muscle protein synthesis in humans. Providing an EAA+CHO solution postexercise can further increase muscle protein synthesis. Therefore, we hypothesized that enhanced mTOR signaling might be responsible for the greater muscle protein synthesis when leucine-enriched EAA+CHOs are ingested during postexercise recovery. Sixteen male subjects were randomized to one of two groups (control or EAA+CHO). The EAA+CHO group ingested the nutrient solution 1 h after resistance exercise. mTOR signaling was assessed by immunoblotting from repeated muscle biopsy samples. Mixed muscle fractional synthetic rate (FSR) was measured using stable isotope techniques. Muscle protein synthesis and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation during exercise were significantly reduced (P < 0.05). Postexercise FSR was elevated above baseline in both groups at 1 h but was even further elevated in the EAA+CHO group at 2 h postexercise (P < 0.05). Increased FSR was associated with enhanced phosphorylation of mTOR and S6K1 (P < 0.05). Akt phosphorylation was elevated at 1 h and returned to baseline by 2 h in the control group, but it remained elevated in the EAA+CHO group (P < 0.05). 4E-BP1 phosphorylation returned to baseline during recovery in control but became elevated when EAA+CHO was ingested (P < 0.05). eEF2 phosphorylation decreased at 1 and 2 h postexercise to a similar extent in both groups (P < 0.05). Our data suggest that enhanced activation of the mTOR signaling pathway is playing a role in the greater synthesis of muscle proteins when resistance exercise is followed by EAA+CHO ingestion. 相似文献
