چکیده
7-hydroxystaurosporine (UCN-01) infused for 72 hours by continuous i.v. infusion induced insulin resistance during phase I clinical trials. To understand the mechanism for this observation, we examined the effect of UCN-01 on insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity with 3-O-methylglucose in isolated rat adipose cells. UCN-01 inhibits glucose transport activity in a dose-dependent manner at all insulin concentrations. At the clinically relevant concentration of 0.25 mumol/L UCN-01, glucose transport is inhibited 66, 29, and 26% at insulin concentrations of 10, 50, and 100,000 (100K) microunits/mL respectively, thus shifting the dose-response curve to the right. Increasing concentrations of UCN-01 up to 2.5 mumol/L progressively shift the insulin dose-response curve even further. As Akt is known to mediate in part action initiated at the insulin receptor, we also studied the effect of UCN-01 on Akt activation in whole-cell homogenates of these cells. Decreased glucose transport activity directly parallels decreased Akt Thr308 phosphorylation in both an insulin and UCN-01 dose-dependent manner, whereas Akt Ser473 phosphorylation is inhibited only at the lowest insulin concentration, and then, only modestly. UCN-01 also inhibits insulin-induced Thr308 but not Ser473 phosphorylation of Akt associated with the plasma membranes and low-density microsomes and inhibits translocation of GLUT4 from low-density microsomes to plasma membranes as expected from the glucose transport activity measurements. These data suggest that UCN-01 induces clinical insulin resistance by blocking Akt activation and subsequent GLUT4 translocation in response to insulin, and this effect appears to occur by inhibiting Thr308 phosphorylation even in the face of almost completely unaffected Ser473 phosphorylation.

متن کاملUnderstanding the Mechanism Underlie the Antidiabetic Activity of Oleuropein Using Ex-Vivo Approach
Background: Oleuropein, the main constituent of olive fruit and leaves, has been reported to protect against insulin resistance and diabetes. While many experimental investigations have examined the mechanisms by which oleuropein improves insulin resistance and diabetes, much of these investigations have been carried out in either muscle cell lines or in vivo models two scenarios with many draw...

OBJECTIVE Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle insulin resistance and the insulin-sensitizing effect of thiazolidinediones in PCOS in vivo are less well characterized. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We determined molecular mediators of insulin s...

Insulin stimulated translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 from the cytosol to the plasma membrane in a concentration (1 nM-1 μM)-dependent manner and increased glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface was prevented by the phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K) inhibitor wortmannin, the 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) i...
متن کاملMuscle-specific deletion of rictor impairs insulin-stimulated glucose transport and enhances Basal glycogen synthase activity.
Rictor is an essential component of mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) complex 2 (mTORC2), a kinase complex that phosphorylates Akt at Ser473 upon activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3 kinase). Since little is known about the role of either rictor or mTORC2 in PI-3 kinase-mediated physiological processes in adult animals, we generated muscle-specific rictor knockout mice. Muscle f...
