摘要
To study the regulatory effect of acute and chronic insulin treatmenton insulin post- re- ceptor signaling transduction pathway in a human hepatom a cell line (Hep G2 ) ,Hep G2 cells were incubated in the presence or absence of insulin with different concentrations in serum free m edia for16 h and then stim ulated with10 0 nmol/ L insulin for1m in.Protein levels of insulin receptor β- subunit(IRβ) ,insulin receptor substrate- 1(IRS- 1) and p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol3- kinase(PI3- kinase) were determined in total cell lysates by Western- im munoblot.Phosphorylat- ed proteins IRβ,IRS- 1and interaction of PI3- kinase with IRS- 1were determ ined by im munopre- cipitation.Results showed that 1- min insulin stimulation rapidly induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRβ and IRS- 1,which in turn,resulting in association of PI 3- kinase with IRS- 1.1- 10 0 nm ol/ L chronic insulin treatment induced a dose- dependent decrease in the protein level of IRβ and a slight decrease in the protein level of IRS- 1.There was a m ore marked reduction in the phospho- rylation of IRβ,IRS- 1,reaching a nadir of2 2 % (P<0 .0 1) and15 % (P<0 .0 1) of control lev- els,respectively,after16 h treatment with 10 0 nm ol/ L insulin.The association between IRS- 1 and PI3- kinase was decreased by6 6 % (P<0 .0 1) .There was no significant change in PI3- ki- nase protein levels. These data suggest that chronic insulin treatm ent can induce alterations of IRβ,IRS- 1and PI 3- kinase three early steps in insulin action,which contributes significantly to insulin resistance,and may account for desensitization of insulin action.
