We have examined the requirement for intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) in insulin signal transduction in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Using the Ca(2+) chelator 1,2- bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, sodium (BAPTA-AM), we find both augmentation and inhibition of insulin signaling phenomena. Pretreatment of cells with 50 microM BAPTA-AM did not affect tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin re...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS1) gene is a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the IRS1 gene polymorphisms Gly972Arg and Ala513Pro with type 2 diabetes in an Asian Indian population in south India. METHODS A total of 2,148 subjects (1,187 normal glucose-tolerant [NGT] and 961 type 2 diabetes subjects)...
Epidemiological and genetic studies have identified metabolic disorders and inflammation as risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Evidence in obesity and type-2 diabetes suggests a role for a metabolic inflammasome ("metaflammasome") in mediating chronic inflammation in peripheral organs implicating IKKβ (inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B kinase subunit beta), IRS1 (insulin receptor subs...
Previous studies on the Arabian camel (Camelus dromedarius) showed beneficial effects of its milk reported in diverse models of human diseases, including a substantial hypoglycemic activity. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in such effects remain completely unknown. In this study, we hypothesized that camel milk may act at the level of human insulin receptor (hIR) and its...
High levels of insulin and insulin-like growth factors have been associated with increased risk of prostate cancer (1, 2). Insulin regulates and stimulates cell growth, and inhibits apoptosis in cellular models, although mitogenicity seems to occur at supraphysiologic levels. Insulin also inhibits transcription of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 and decreases the synthesis of sex h...
Phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate (IRS) proteins on serine residues is an important posttranslational modification that is linked to insulin resistance. Several phosphoserine sites on IRS1 have been identified; the majority are located proximal to the phosphotryosine-binding domain or near key receptor tyrosine kinase substrate- and/or Src-homology 2 domain-binding sites. Here we re...
Skeletal muscle possesses a strong ability to regenerate following injury, a fact that has been largely attributed to satellite cells. Satellite cells are skeletal muscle stem cells located beneath the basal lamina of the myofiber, and are the principal cellular source of growth and regeneration in skeletal muscle. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in modulating several cellular processes by ta...
OBJECTIVE Genetic variants near IRS1 are associated with features of the metabolic syndrome (MetS). We examined whether genetic variants near IRS1 might modulate the effects of diets varying in fat content on the MetS status in a 2-year weight-loss trial. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Two variants near IRS1, rs1522813 and rs2943641, were genotyped in 738 overweight/obese adults (age 60 ± 9 year...
BACKGROUND We previously reported significant associations between genetic variants in insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and breast cancer risk in women carrying BRCA1 mutations. The objectives of this study were to investigate whether the IRS1 variants modified ovarian cancer risk and were associated with breast cancer risk in a larger cohort of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers. METHODS I...
INTRODUCTION Aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to reduce risk of colorectal cancer. Although inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is generally thought to be the relevant mechanism, aspirin-like drugs apparently are involved in other pathways and mechanisms. We explore the associations between aspirin/NSAIDs, the insulin-related pathway, and the risk of co...
