Abstract
We investigated the effects of general receptor for phosphoinositides-1 (GRP1), a recently cloned protein that binds 3,4,5-phosphatidylinositol [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] with high affinity, but not PtdIns(3,4)P2 nor PtdIns(3)P, on insulin and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I)-induced cytoskeletal rearrangement, glucose transporter-4 (GLUT4) translocation, and DNA synthesis. GRP1 consists of an NH2-terminally located coiled coil domain followed by a Sec7 domain and a COOH-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain that is required for PtdIns binding. We used microinjection of glutathione-S-transferase fusion proteins containing residues 239-399 (PH domain), residues 52-260 (Sec7 domain), residues 5-71 (N-terminal domain), full-length GRP1, and an antibody (AB) raised against full-length GRP1 coupled with immunofluorescent detection of actin filament rearrangement, GLUT4 translocation, and 3'-bromo-5'-deoxyuridine incorporation. Microinjection of these constructs and the AB had no effect on insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation or DNA synthesis. However, microinjection of the GRP1-PH and the GRP1-Sec7 domain as well as the alpha-GRP1-AB significantly inhibited insulin- and IGF-I-stimulated actin rearrangement in an insulin receptor-overexpressing cell line (HIRcB) compared with that in control experiments. Coinjection of GRP1-Sec7 along with constitutively active Rac (Q67L) did not inhibit Rac-induced actin rearrangement. Furthermore, GRP1 is not able to bind and act as a nucleotide exchange factor for the small GTP-binding proteins of the Rho family. As GRP1 acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for ARF6 proteins, we propose a signaling pathway distinct from the small GTP-binding protein Rac, connecting PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 via GRP1 to ARF6, leading to insulin- and IGF-I-induced actin rearrangement.

Abstract
Rat 3Y1 cells have endogenous insulin-like growth factor-1 receptors and insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-2, but lack both insulin receptor (IR) and IRS-1. To investigate the role of IR and IRS-1 in effects of insulin, we transfected IR and IRS-1 expression plasmids into cells and reconstituted the insulin signaling pathways. 3Y1 cells stably expressing the c-myc epitope-tagged glucose transporter type 4 (3Y1-GLUT4myc) exhibit no effects of insulin, at physiological concentrations. The 3Y1-GLUT4myc-IR cells expressing GLUT4myc and IR responded to phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5-trisphosphate (PI-3,4,5-P3) accumulation, Akt activation, the stimulation of DNA synthesis, and membrane ruffling but not to glycogen synthesis, glucose uptake, or GLUT4myc translocation. The further expression of IRS-1 in 3Y1-GLUT4myc-IR cells led to stimulation of glycogen synthesis but not to glucose uptake or GLUT4myc translocation in response to insulin, although NaF or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate did trigger GLUT4myc translocation in the cells. These results suggest that, in rat 3Y1 cells, (i) IRS-1 is essential for insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis but not for DNA synthesis, PI-3,4,5-P3 accumulation, Akt phosphorylation, or membrane ruffling, and (ii) the accumulation of PI-3,4,5-P3 and activation of Akt are insufficient for glycogen synthesis, glucose uptake or for GLUT4 translocation.

Abstract
The cellular mechanisms that underlie nerve growth factor (NGF) induced increase in Ca(2+)-channel current in adult bullfrog sympathetic B-neurons were examined by whole cell recording techniques. Cells were maintained at low density in neuron-enriched, defined-medium, serum-free tissue culture for 6 days in the presence or absence of NGF (200 ng/ml). The increase in Ba2+ current (IBa) density induced by NGF was attenuated by the RNA synthesis inhibitor cordycepin (20 microM), by the DNA transcription inhibitor actinomycin D (0.01 microgram/ml), by inhibitors of Ras isoprenylation (perillic acid 0.1-1.0 mM or alpha-hydroxyfarnesylphosphonic acid 10-100 microM), by tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein (20 microM) or lavendustin A (1 microM), and by PD98059 (10-100 microM), an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase. Inhibitors of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway (wortmannin, 100 nM, or LY29400, 100 microM) were ineffective as were inhibitors of phospholipase C gamma (U73122 or neomycin, both 100 microM). The effect of NGF persisted in Ca(2+)-free medium that contained 1.8 mM Mg2+ and 2 mM ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid. It was mimicked by a Trk antibody that was capable of inducing neurite outgrowth in explant cultures of bullfrog sympathetic ganglion. Antibodies raised against the low-affinity p75 neurotrophin receptor were ineffective in blocking the effect of NGF on IBa. These results suggest that NGF-induced increase in Ca2+ channel current in adult sympathetic neurons results, at least in part, from new channel synthesis after Trk activation of Ras and mitogen activated protein kinase by a mechanism that is independent of extracellular Ca2+.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) is implicated in cellular events including glucose transport, glycogen synthesis, and protein synthesis. It is activated in insulin-stimulated cells by binding of the Src homology 2 (SH2) domains in its 85-kDa regulatory subunit to insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), and, others. We have previously shown that IRS-1-associated PI 3-kinase activity is not essential for insulin-stimulated glucose transport in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and that alternate pathways exist in these cells. We now show that adenovirus-mediated overexpression of the p85N-SH2 domain in these cells behaves in a dominant-negative manner, interfering with complex formation between endogenous PI 3-K and its SH2 binding targets. This not only inhibited insulin-stimulated IRS-1-associated PI 3-kinase activity, but also completely blocked anti-phosphotyrosine-associated PI 3-kinase activity, which would include the non-IRS-1-associated activity. This resulted in inhibition of insulin-stimulated glucose transport, glycogen synthase activity and DNA synthesis. Further, Ser/Thr phosphorylation of downstream molecules Akt and p70 S6 kinase was inhibited. However, co-expression of a membrane-targeted p110(C) with the p85N-SH2 protein rescued glucose transport, supporting our argument that the p85N-SH2 protein specifically blocks insulin-mediated PI 3-kinase activity, and, that the signaling pathways downstream of PI 3-kinase are intact. Unexpectedly, GTP-bound Ras was elevated in the basal state. Since p85 is known to interact with GTPase-activating protein in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, the overexpressed p85N-SH2 peptide could titrate out cellular GTPase-activating protein by direct association, such that it is unavailable to hydrolyze GTP-bound Ras. However, insulin-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation was inhibited. Thus, PI 3-kinase may be required for this action at a step independent of and downstream of Ras. We conclude that, in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, non-IRS-1-associated PI 3-kinase activity is crucial for insulin's metabolic signaling, and that overexpressed p85N-SH2 protein inhibits a variety of insulin's ultimate biological effects.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factors are major regulators of growth and development in mammals and their presence in lower vertebrates suggests that they played a similarly fundamental role throughout vertebrate evolution. While originally perceived simply as mediators of growth hormone, on-going research in mammals has revealed several hierarchical layers of complexity in the regulation of ligand bioavailability and signal transduction. Our understanding of the biological role and mechanisms of action of these important growth factors in mammals patently requires further elucidation of the IGF hormone system in the simple model systems that can be found in lower vertebrates and protochordates. This review contrasts our knowledge of the IGF hormone system in mammalian and nonmammalian models through comparison of tissue and developmental distributions and gene structures of IGF system components in different taxa. We also discuss the evolutionary origins of the system components and their possible evolutionary pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), an enzyme that phosphorylates inositol phospholipids at the D-3 position of the inositol ring, has been implicated in the signaling pathways regulating cell growth by virtue of its activation in response to various mitogenic stimuli. In spite of the considerable attention PI 3-kinase has received with regard to its possible role in the mitogenic pathways in hematopoietic malignancies, there are few reports of investigations into PI 3-kinase activity in solid tumors. METHODS Colorectal tumor tissue and normal-appearing colonic mucosa from the same patients were homogenized and solubilized and adjusted to equal protein levels. PI 3-kinase then was immunoprecipitated from 200 microg of the solubilized tissue using a polyclonal antibody to the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase. PI 3-kinase activity was assessed using phosphatidylinositol as the substrate and the assay product analyzed by thin-layer chromatography. Phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol in the D-3 position was confirmed by high performance liquid chromatography analysis of deacylated and deglycerated products. RESULTS Thirty-two of the 37 tumors tested (86%) demonstrated increased PI 3-kinase activity compared with normal-appearing mucosa from the same patients (overall mean increase+/-standard error of the mean=3.8+/-0.6-fold; P < 0.05, Student's t test for paired data). The frequency and extent of increased PI 3-kinase enzyme activity in tumors did not correlate with clinical parameters or the presence of oncogenic ras mutations. CONCLUSIONS In this study colorectal tumors exhibited enhanced PI 3-kinase activity compared with normal colonic mucosa, raising the possibility that PI 3-kinase may be a potential target for new strategies for the treatment of colorectal carcinoma.

Abstract
Phospholipase C-gamma (PLCgamma) is the isozyme of PLC phosphorylated by multiple tyrosine kinases including epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, nerve growth factor receptors, and nonreceptor tyrosine kinases. In this paper, we present evidence for the association of the insulin receptor (IR) with PLCgamma. Precipitation of the IR with glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins derived from PLCgamma and coimmunoprecipitation of the IR and PLCgamma were observed in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. To determine the functional significance of the interaction of PLCgamma and the IR, we used a specific inhibitor of PLC, U73122, or microinjection of SH2 domain glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins derived from PLCgamma to block insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. We demonstrate inhibition of 2-deoxyglucose uptake in isolated primary rat adipocytes and 3T3-L1 adipocytes pretreated with U73122. Antilipolytic effect of insulin in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is unaffected by U73122. U73122 selectively inhibits mitogen-activated protein kinase, leaving the Akt and p70 S6 kinase pathways unperturbed. We conclude that PLCgamma is an active participant in metabolic and perhaps mitogenic signaling by the insulin receptor in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Abstract
Insulin suppresses hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) gene expression and stimulates cell proliferation in human hepatoma Hep3B cells. 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate, TPA, has been demonstrated to mimic insulin actions in these cells. We examined the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in the signaling pathways of insulin and TPA towards these two biological phenomena in Hep3B cells. The pre-treatment of 5 microM of wortmannin diminished insulin suppressed HBsAg production and completely abolished insulin stimulated cell proliferation. However, wortmannin had no effect on TPA actions in both HBsAg suppression and cell growth stimulation. We further investigated the effect of wortmannin in mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) activation induced by insulin or TPA. After the pretreatment of wortmannin, insulin activated MAPKs was completely blocked, but TPA was still capable to activate MAPKs. These results suggest that PI 3-kinase is involved in insulin actions but not in TPA effects, and allow us to dissociate the signaling pathways of insulin and TPA in human hepatoma Hep3B cells.

Abstract
The Grb10 protein appears to be an adapter protein of unknown function that has been implicated in insulin receptor (IR) signaling. The interaction of this protein with the IR has been shown to be mediated in part by the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of Grb10. Here we demonstrate the existence of a second novel domain within Grb10 that interacts with the IR and insulin-like growth factor receptor in a kinase-dependent manner. This domain was localized to a region of approximately 50 amino acids, and we term it the BPS domain to denote its location between the PH and SH2 domains. The BPS domain does not bear any obvious resemblance to other known protein interaction domains but is highly conserved among the Grb10-related proteins Grb7 and Grb14. We show that the BPS domain interaction is dependent upon receptor tyrosine kinase activity. Furthermore, interaction of the BPS domain requires the kinase domain of the IR, since mutation of the paired tyrosine residues (Y1150F/Y1151F) within the IR activation loop dramatically reduced the interaction. Last, our data suggest that the presence of two distinct protein interaction domains may help to determine the specificity by which Grb10 interacts with different receptors. Specifically, the IR, which appears to interact most strongly with Grb10, interacts well with both the SH2 and BPS domains. Conversely, the insulin-like growth factor receptor and EGFR, which interact less avidly with Grb10, interact well only with the BPS domain or the SH2 domain, respectively. In summary, our findings demonstrate the existence of a previously unidentified tyrosine kinase activity-dependent binding domain located between the Pleckstrin homology and SH2 domains of Grb10.

Abstract
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; approximately 10(6) 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.

Abstract
Our previous results have demonstrated that phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA) and insulin synergistically stimulate the activity of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3 kinase) and PI-3 kinase plays an important role in both of TPA-induced AP-1 activation and cell transformation in tumour promotion sensitive (P+) JB6 cells. In the present study, we investigated the role of PKC and its isozymes in the synergistic induction of PI-3 kinase by TPA and insulin. Bisindolylmaleimide inhibits TPA- and TPA+ insulin-induced PI-3 kinase activity. Pretreatment of cells for 24 h with TPA has significant inhibitory effects on TPA-induced PI-3 kinase activity and abolishes the synergistic effect of TPA and insulin-stimulated PI-3 kinase activity. Furthermore, overexpression of a dominant negative PKC epsilon, but not dominant negative PKC alpha, blocks the synergistic effect of TPA and insulin-induced PI-3 kinase activity. These results indicate that the potentiation effect of TPA on insulin-induced PI-3 kinase activity is specific through PKC epsilon in JB6 cells.

Abstract
In the present study, we compared the ability of insulin to regulate SAPKs/JNKs and ERKs in CHO cells overexpressing human insulin receptors. We show that acute insulin treatment induced a time-dependent increase both in SAPK/JNK and ERK activity but with distinct kinetics. PI-3-kinase inhibition by wortmannin completely blocked insulin activation of SAPKs/JNKs, whereas it partially decreased ERK activation. Prolonged exposure to insulin caused a marked inhibition of SAPK/JNK activity while it induced a sustained activation of ERKs. Insulin inhibition of SAPKs/JNKs was partly due to decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of JNK2. These data indicate that insulin differentially regulates SAPKs/JNKs and ERKs. Moreover, they provide the first evidence that insulin exerts opposite effects on SAPK/JNK activity according to the time of cell treatment.

Abstract
There are differing views regarding the roles of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3-kinases) and p70 S6 kinase (p70s6k) in growth factor-induced cellular responses. One approach that is widely employed to investigate these roles is to use the inhibitors, wortmannin and rapamycin, respectively. This approach is used here to study the responses in macrophages to colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1). Wortmannin (> or = 30 nM) and rapamycin (> or = 3 nM) both weakly inhibited CSF-1-stimulated DNA synthesis in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM), suggesting that there are PI3-kinase- and p70s6k-independent pathways required for the onset of S phase; interestingly the combination of the drugs gave dramatic suppression. Inhibition of DNA synthesis by rapamycin on the BMM was much less than that observed with the CSF-1-dependent cell line, BAC1.2F5. In BMM, wortmannin suppressed CSF-1-stimulated increase in p70s6k activity indicating that PI3-kinase activity may lie upstream. In contrast to some other growth factor/cell systems, no evidence was obtained using the inhibitors for the involvement of PI3-kinase or p70s6k in CSF-1-mediated induction of c-fos mRNA expression or Erk-1 activity; in addition, no evidence was found for an involvement in the CSF-1-mediated increase in cyclin D1 expression or STAT activation. The findings reinforce the need to study the signal transduction cascades relevant to each individual growth factor and preferably not in cell lines.

Abstract
To delineate the signaling pathway leading to glucose transport protein (GLUT4) translocation, we examined the effect of microinjection of the nonhydrolyzable GTP analog, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPgammaS), into 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Thirty minutes after the injection of 5 mM GTPgammaS, 40% of injected cells displayed surface GLUT4 staining indicative of GLUT4 translocation compared with 55% for insulin-treated cells and 10% in control IgG-injected cells. Treatment of the cells with the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin or coinjection of GST-p85 SH2 fusion protein had no effect on GTPgammaS-mediated GLUT4 translocation. On the other hand, coinjection of antiphosphotyrosine antibodies (PY20) blocked GTPgammaS-induced GLUT4 translocation by 65%. Furthermore, microinjection of GTPgammaS led to the appearance of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins around the periphery of the plasma membrane, as observed by immunostaining with PY20. Treatment of the cells with insulin caused a similar phosphotyrosine-staining pattern. Electroporation of GTPgammaS stimulated 2-deoxy-D-glucose transport to 70% of the extent of insulin stimulation. In addition, immunoblotting with phosphotyrosine antibodies after electroporation of GTPgammaS revealed increased tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, including 70- to 80-kDa and 120- to 130-kDa species. These results suggest that GTPgammaS acts upon a signaling pathway either downstream of or parallel to activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and that this pathway involves tyrosine-phosphorylated protein(s).

Abstract
Insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis, MAP kinase (MAPK) activity and c-fos expression in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was blocked by the MAPK inhibitor PD 98059. Regulation of c-fos expression by the transcription factor Elk-1 at the serum response element (SRE) is dependent on its phosphorylation by MAPK. PD 98059 also suppressed insulin-induced Elk-1 transcriptional activity through the SRE. These data show that MAPK plays a critical role in both insulin-mediated growth and Elk-1-dependent induction of c-fos in VSMCs.

Abstract
The signaling mechanisms utilized by the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) to activate the transcription factors NFkappaB and activator protein-1 (AP-1) are poorly defined. We present evidence here that IL-1 not only stimulates a dramatic increase in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity but also induces the physical interaction of its type I receptor with the p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase. Furthermore, two PI 3-kinase-specific inhibitors, wortmannin and a dominant-negative mutant of the p85 subunit, inhibited IL-1-induced activation of both NFkappaB and AP-1. Transient transfection experiments indicated that whereas overexpression of PI 3-kinase may be sufficient to induce AP-1 and increase nuclear c-Fos protein levels, PI 3-kinase may need to cooperate with other IL-1-inducible signals to fully activate NFkappaB-dependent gene expression. In this regard, cotransfection studies suggested that PI 3-kinase may functionally interact with the recently-identified IL-1-receptor-associated kinase to activate NFkappaB. Our results thus indicate that PI 3-kinase is a novel signal transducer in IL-1 signaling and that it may differentially mediate the activation of NFkappaB and AP-1.

Abstract
To understand the physiological role of low Mr weight phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase (LMW-PTP) in insulin mediated signaling, we established clonal cell lines overexpressing the dominant negative (C12S mutant) LMW-PTP (dnLMW-PTP) from NIH3T3 murine fibroblasts expressing insulin receptor. Upon insulin stimulation we observe an association between the dnLMW-PTP and the beta-subunit of the insulin receptor. This association is dependent on the tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor since it is not observed in unstimulated cells. Furthermore, in vitro binding experiments between dnLMW-PTP and the insulin receptor reveal that the interaction is mediated by the LMW-PTP catalytic site, as indicated by competition with orthovanadate. DnLMW-PTP overexpression influences both the mitogenic and the metabolic bioeffects of insulin. In particular, in cells overexpressing dnLMW-PTP we observe an increase in the glycogenosynthesis rate and in mitosis as indicated by glucose incorporation into glycogen and thymidine incorporation into DNA, respectively. Moreover, we studied the insulin mediated signal transduction pathways starting from insulin receptor, such as the Src kinase, the p21Ras/ERK, and the PI3K routes. Our findings are consistent with a specific regulation of mitogenesis by LMW-PTP through a pathway involving c-Src kinase but independent by both PI3K and ERK. These data strongly suggest that LMW-PTP acts as a negative regulator of both mitogenetic and metabolic insulin signalling.

Abstract
The insulin-responsive aminopeptidase (IRAP) is a constituent of the vesicles that contain the insulin-regulated glucose transporter (Glut4). Like Glut4, IRAP translocates to the cell surface in response to insulin. Microinjection into 3T3-L1 adipocytes of a glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein containing the cytosolic portion of IRAP (GST-IRAP-(1-109)), resulted in translocation of Glut4 to the cell surface. Immunostaining of 3T3-L1 adipocytes for Glut4 showed that the percentage of cells with substantial cell surface Glut4 was 10% in unstimulated cells, 8% following injection of GST, and 27% following injection of GST-IRAP-(1-109). Increased cell surface Glut4 occurred within 5-10 min following injection and was maintained for at least 4 h. A fusion protein containing only 28 amino acids from IRAP (GST-IRAP-(55-82)) was as effective in increasing cell surface Glut4 as stimulation with 100 nM insulin (44% versus 43%, respectively). In contrast to insulin-stimulated Glut4 translocation, the redistribution of Glut4 following injection of GST-IRAP-(55-82) was not blocked by wortmannin or co-injection with a SH2 domain from the regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. These data suggest that the amino terminus of IRAP interacts with a retention/sorting protein that also regulates the distribution of Glut4 in insulin-responsive cells.

Abstract
The stimulation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase by insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) in L6 cultured skeletal muscle cells is inhibited by the glucocorticoid dexamethasone. The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanism of dexamethasone action by determining its effects on the expression of the p85alpha and p85beta regulatory subunit isoforms of PI 3-kinase, their coupling with the p110 catalytic subunit, and their association with insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) in response to IGF-I stimulation. Dexamethasone induced a 300% increase in p85alpha protein content in the L6 cultured myoblast cell line, whereas it increased p110 content by only 38% and had no effect on p85beta. The increase in p85alpha protein was associated with a coordinate increase in p85alpha mRNA. Stimulation with IGF-I induced the association of p85alpha and p85beta with IRS-1, and this was accompanied by increased amounts of the p110 catalytic subunit and markedly increased PI 3-kinase activity in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates. In cells treated with dexamethasone, greater amounts of p85alpha and lower amounts of p85beta, respectively, were found in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates, such that the alpha/beta ratio was markedly higher than in control cells. In spite of the increase in both total and IRS-1-associated p85alpha following dexamethasone treatment, IRS-1-associated p110 catalytic subunit and PI 3-kinase activity were decreased by approximately 50%. Thus, dexamethasone induces a specific increase in expression of the p85alpha regulatory subunit that is not associated with a coordinate increase in the p110 catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase. As a consequence, in dexamethasone-treated cells, p85alpha that is not coupled with p110 competes with both p85alpha.p110 and p85beta.p110 complexes for association with IRS-1, leading to increased p85alpha but decreased p85beta, p110, and PI 3-kinase activity in IRS-1 immunoprecipitates.

Abstract
Phorbol esters, which activate isoforms of protein kinase C, are general activators of the transcription factor activated protein 1 (AP-1). The pathway involved in this signal transduction is not very clear. Currently, little is known about whether phosphatidylinositol-3 (PI-3) kinase plays any role in phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced signal transduction. We demonstrate here that TPA not only has markedly synergistic effects on insulin-induced PI-3 kinase activity, but it also can induce PI-3 kinase activity and the PI-3 phosphates by itself. We also found that insulin, a PI-3 kinase activator, enhanced TPA-induced AP-1 trans-activation and transformation in JB6 promotion-sensitive cells. Furthermore, wortmannin and LY294002, two PI-3 kinase inhibitors, markedly decreased AP-1 activity induced by insulin, TPA, or TPA and insulin and inhibited JB6 promotion-sensitive cell transformation induced by TPA or TPA and insulin. Most importantly, constitutive overexpression of the dominant negative PI-3 kinase P85 mutants completely blocked insulin- or TPA-induced AP-1 trans-activation and TPA-induced cell transformation. All evidence from present studies suggests that PI-3 kinase acts as a mediator in TPA-induced AP-1 activation and transformation in JB6 cells.

Abstract
Integrin-mediated cell adhesion triggers intracellular signaling cascades, including tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins. We show in this report that p120(cbl) (Cbl), the 120-kDa c-cbl proto-oncogene product, becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated during integrin-mediated macrophage cell adhesion to extracellular matrix substrata and anti-integrin antibodies. This tyrosine phosphorylation does not occur when cells attach to polylysine, to which cells adhere in a nonspecific fashion. It also does not take place when adhesion-induced reorganization of the cytoskeleton is inhibited with cytochalasin D. In contrast to the rapid and transient tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl by CSF-1 stimulation, tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl by cell attachment was gradual and persistent. Tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl was found to form complexes with the SH2 domain-containing signaling proteins Src and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; in vitro kinase assays demonstrated that these kinases were active in the Cbl complexes following integrin ligand binding. Furthermore, Cbl was found to translocate to the plasma membrane in response to cell adhesion to fibronectin. These observations suggest that Cbl serves as a docking protein and may transduce signals to downstream signaling pathways following integrin-mediated cell adhesion in macrophages.

Abstract
Insulin acts on its target tissues by specific interaction with the cell surface insulin receptor (IR). The IR possesses an intrinsic tyrosine kinase (TK) activity which is stimulated by insulin binding. This TK activity is required for many aspects of insulin signalling. We had earlier reported that human plasma alpha 2-HS glycoprotein (alpha 2-HSG) inhibits insulin-stimulated mitogenesis at the level of IR-TK (Mol Endo 7: 1445-1455, 1993). In the present study, using recombinant alpha 2-HSG, which possesses 50-100 times the specific activity of plasma alpha 2-HSG, we have further investigated the molecular basis of this effect. We examined the insulin-stimulated Ras signalling pathway in Chinese Hamster Ovary cells overexpressing the human IR. alpha 2-HSG inhibits insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and the subsequent association of GRB2, as well as Sos, with IRS-1. This inhibition results in reduced guanine nucleotide exchange in p21ras. alpha 2-HSG also inhibits the stimulation of Raf phosphorylation, in response to insulin, leading to inhibition of MEK activity. In a parallel pathway, alpha 2-HSG also inhibits insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc. However, alpha 2-HSG does not affect any of the metabolic actions of insulin rested in these cells. These results suggest that, while insulin's mitogenic effects can be abolished by inhibition of insulin-induced IR-TK, propagation of signals for metabolic activities might utilize alternate of rescue mechanisms.

Abstract
We have utilized the yeast two-hybrid system to identify proteins that interact with the cytoplasmic domain of the insulin receptor. We identified a human cDNA that is a splice variant of the human GRB10 homolog GRB-IR, which we term GRB10/IR-SV1 (for GRB10/GRB-IR splice variant 1). The protein encoded by the GRB10/IR-SV1 cDNA contains an SH2 domain and a pleckstrin homology domain. Cloning of a full-length human cDNA revealed a predicted coding sequence that was similar to the mouse GRB10 protein, although GRB10/IR-SV1 contained an 80-amino acid deletion. The GRB10/IR-SV1 cDNA is a splice variant of the GRB-IR cDNA such that GRB10/IR-SV1 contains an intact pleckstrin homology domain and a distinct amino terminus. The interaction of GRB10/IR-SV1 with the insulin receptor and the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptor is mediated by the SH2 domain, and we show that glutathione S-transferase-SH2 domain fusion proteins interact specifically in vitro with the insulin receptor derived from mammalian cells. The GRB10/IR-SV1 SH2 domain also interacted with an approximately 135-kDa phosphoprotein from unstimulated cell lysates, an interaction that decreased after insulin stimulation. We present evidence that the GRB10/IR-SV1 protein plays a functional role in insulin and IGF-I signaling by showing that microinjection of an SH2 domain fusion protein inhibited insulin- and IGF-I-stimulated mitogenesis in fibroblasts, yet had no effect on mitogenesis induced by epidermal growth factor. Our findings suggest that GRB10/IR-SV1 may serve to positively link the insulin and IGF-I receptors to an uncharacterized mitogenic signaling pathway.

Abstract
Insulin stimulation of 3T3-L1 adipocytes causes rapid translocation of actin and the GLUT4 glucose transporter to the plasma membrane. Both processes depend on the activity of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Using single cell microinjection, we have transiently expressed a constitutively activated mutant of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, p110*, in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Fluorescent detection of GLUT4 protein and actin within these cells demonstrates that expression of p110* is sufficient to cause translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane and the formation of actin membrane ruffles. These effects are inhibited by wortmannin in the p110*-expressing cells, indicating that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity of the protein is required. Overexpression of an identical protein containing a point mutation in the kinase domain, p110*Deltakin, was incapable of mediating either action, confirming that neither the microinjection process nor a nonspecific effect of the protein was responsible for the observed effects. These data suggest that although insulin is capable of inducing numerous signaling pathways, the isolated activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase can initiate the signaling cascade leading to both actin rearrangement and GLUT4 translocation in the absence of insulin stimulation.

Abstract
Recently, a number of cDNA clones with homology to the catalytic subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase have been identified, and the sequence of the first cDNA clone encoding a phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase has been published. Use of both dominant-negative mutants of phosphoinositide 3-kinase and the inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 has identified a number of processes in which phosphoinositide 3-kinase participates, including cell motility, the Ras pathway, vesicle trafficking and secretion, and apoptosis. Several possible biochemical targets of phosphoinositides have been found.

Abstract
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase, becomes activated and phosphorylated on tyrosine in cells transformed with v-src. By cytoimmunofluorescence a sub-fraction of the p85 subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) localized in focal adhesion plaques. We examined the possibility that FAK associates with PI 3-kinase. In fibroblasts transformed with polyoma middle t, PI 3-kinase activity co-immunoprecipitated with pp125FAK using two different antibodies against this protein. PP125FAK from middle t-transformed cells associated with a glutathione-S-transferase fusion protein containing the 85-kDa subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Both of the SH2 domains and the SH3 domain of p85 also formed complexes with pp125FAK in vitro. Phosphopeptides that bind to the SH2 domains completely blocked the binding of full-length p85 to pp125FAK, while a peptide that binds to the SH3 domain was ineffective, indicating that the association between p85 and pp125FAK is mediated by the SH2 domains of p85.

Abstract
Insulin is one of the most important regulators of glucose and lipid homeostasis. Many of its cellular actions are mediated by changes in protein phosphorylation. The consequences of these phosphorylation events extend from a series of different short-term metabolic actions to longer-term effects of the hormone on cellular growth and differentiation. Although the insulin receptor itself is a tyrosine kinase that is activated upon hormone binding, the ensuing changes in phosphorylation occur predominantly on serine and threonine residues. Moreover, insulin can simultaneously stimulate the phosphorylation of some proteins and the dephosphorylation of others. These paradoxical effects of insulin suggest that separate signal transduction pathways may emanate from the receptor itself to produce the pleiotropic actions of the hormone.

Abstract
Overexpression of a TPA-insensitive PKC member, an atypical protein kinase C (aPKClambda), results in an enhancement of the transcriptional activation of TPA response element (TRE) in cells stimulated with epidermal growth factor (EGF) or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). EGF or PDGF also caused a transient increase in the in vivo phosphorylation level and a change in the intracellular localization of aPKClambda from the nucleus to the cytosol, indicating the activation of aPKClambda in response to this growth factor stimulation. These immediate signal-dependent changes in aKPClambda were observed for a PDGF receptor add-back mutant (Y40/51) that possesses only two of the five major autophosphorylation sites and binds PI3-kinase, and were inhibited by wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI3-kinase. Furthermore, an N-terminal fragment of the catalytic subunit of PI3-kinase, p110alpha, inhibited aPKClambda-dependent activation of TRE in Y40/51 cells stimulated with PDGF. Overexpression of p110alpha resulted in an enhancement of TRE expression in response to PDGF and the regulatory domain of aPKClambda inhibited this TRE activation in Y40/51 cells. These results provide the first in vivo evidence supporting the presence of a novel signalling pathway from receptor tyrosine kinases to aPKClambda through PI3-kinase.

Abstract
In contrast to their role as potent tumor promoters, phorbol esters can cause inhibition of cell growth. Because the effect of phorbol esters occurs through activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and because activated PKC is translocated to the membrane placing it in a position to act on the intracellular portion of the growth factor receptor, we asked whether this inhibitory effect is mediated through the action of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) on receptor association with the signal transfer proteins. When added to rat vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells concurrently with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), PMA at 100 ng/ml completely inhibits bFGF-stimulated DNA synthesis. Under the same growth-inhibitory conditions of PMA addition, aggregation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) to the fibroblast growth factor receptor and tyrosine phosphorylation of the 85-kDa regulatory component of the signal transfer protein PI3K are reduced by 94 and 79%, respectively. PI3K catalytic activity, as measured by conversion of phosphatidylinositol to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, is decreased 88% by PMA addition. This effect is not specific to PI3K, since aggregation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 to the activated bFGF receptor is also decreased by PMA treatment. In addition, the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin markedly attenuates bFGF-stimulated VSM cell growth in a dose-dependent manner. These data suggest that the site of growth inhibition by PMA in VSM cells lies upstream of signal transfer particle aggregation and that such growth arrest may be mediated through inhibition of activation of PI3K.

Abstract
Expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), the rate-limiting step in hepatic gluconeogenesis, is primarily regulated at the level of gene transcription. Insulin and phorbol esters inhibit basal PEPCK transcription and antagonize the induction of PEPCK gene expression by glucocorticoids and glucagon (or its second messenger cAMP). Insulin activates a signaling cascade involving Ras --> Raf --> p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase (MEK) --> p42/p44 MAP kinase (ERK 1 and 2). Recent reports suggest that activation of this Ras/MAP kinase pathway is critical for the effects of insulin on mitogenesis and c-fos transcription but is not required for insulin action on metabolic processes such as glycogen synthesis, lipogenesis, and Glut-4-mediated glucose transport. We have used three distinct approaches to examine the role of the Ras/MAP kinase pathway in the regulation of PEPCK transcription by insulin in H4IIE-derived liver cells: (i) chemical inhibition of Ras farnesylation, (ii) infection of cells with an adenovirus vector encoding a dominant-negative mutant of Ras, and (iii) use of a chemical inhibitor of MEK. Although each of these methods blocks insulin activation of MAP kinase, none alters insulin antagonism of cAMP- and glucocorticoid-stimulated PEPCK transcription. Although phorbol esters activate MAP kinase and mimic the effects of insulin on PEPCK gene transcription, inhibition of MEK has no effect on phorbol ester inhibition of PEPCK gene transcription. Using the structurally and mechanistically distinct phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) inhibitors, wortmannin and LY 294002, we provide further evidence supporting a role for PI 3-kinase activation in the regulation of PEPCK gene transcription by insulin. We conclude that neither insulin nor phorbol ester regulation of PEPCK gene transcription requires activation of the Ras/MAP kinase pathway and that insulin signaling to the PEPCK promoter is dependent on PI 3-kinase activation.

Abstract
Src homology 2 (SH2) domains on the regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) mediate its binding to specific tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in stimulated cells. Using a pharmacological and genetic approach, we show that the amount of PI 3-kinase associated with tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins inversely correlates with the amount of PI 3-kinase lipid products present in the cell. An explanation for this observation is provided by our finding that phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)trisphosphate (Ptdlns [3,4,5]P3) binds directly and selectively to the SH2 domains of the 85 kDa subunit of PI 3-kinase and thereby blocks binding to tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. The SH2 domain of pp60C-STC also specifically bound Ptdlns (3,4,5)P3, and the binding was competed by a phosphopeptide specific for the Src SH2 domain. These results indicate that production of Ptdlns (3,4,5)P3 at the membrane disrupts the binding of PI 3-kinase to phosphoproteins. This lipid may also recruit other SH2-containing proteins to the membrane to initiate downstream signaling.

Abstract
Insulin stimulates glucose transport largely by mediating translocation of the insulin-sensitive glucose transporter (GLUT4) from an intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane. Using single cell microinjection of 3T3-L1 adipocytes, coupled with immunofluorescence detection of GLUT4 proteins, we have determined that inhibition of endogenous p21ras or injection of oncogenic p21ras has no effect on insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. On the other hand, microinjection of anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies or inhibition of endogenous phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase by microinjection of a GST-p85 SH2 fusion protein markedly inhibits this biologic effect of insulin. These data suggest that the p21ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway is not involved in this metabolic effect of insulin, whereas tyrosine phosphorylation and stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity are critical components of this signaling pathway.

Abstract
The addition of insulin or insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) to RIE-1 cells increased the expression of the primary response gene cMG1; dose-response analysis suggested that this effect was mediated largely through type 1 IGF receptors. Insulin/IGF-I did not affect the expression of the cMG1-related genes TIS11 and TIS11d, whereas epidermal growth factor, angiotensin II or 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate stimulated the expression of all three genes. Incubation with wortmannin (WM) prevented the insulin/IGF-I-induced elevation of cMG1 mRNA, but not that induced by the other mitogens or the stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase by insulin. We conclude that WM-sensitive phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase may be involved in the specific stimulation of cMG1 expression by insulin/IGF-I.

Abstract
Insulin increases activity of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) in Rat-1 fibroblasts transfected with human insulin receptors (HIRc cells), thereby promoting formation of the active form of p21Ras (p21Ras•GTP). In order to identify the upstream molecules mediating this aspect of insulin action, we selectively removed some of these molecules by immunoprecipitation and examined GEF activity in the post-immunoprecipitation lysated of the insulin-treated HIRc cells. The removal of Shc or Grb-2 depleted GEF activity from the cell lysates, whereas immuno-precipitation of the insulin receptors, IRS-1, PLCγ and GAP, were without effect. In summary, the current data demonstrate that a majority of cellular Ras GEF activity after insulin stimulation is associated with Shc and involves interactions among Shc, Grb-2 and Sos.

Abstract
The precise mechanism by which insulin regulates glucose metabolism is not fully understood. However, it is known that insulin activates two enzymes, phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI 3'-K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which may be involved in stimulating the metabolic effects of insulin. The role of these enzymes in glucose metabolism was examined by comparing the effects of insulin, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Treatment of the cells with PDGF or EGF for 5 min increased the MAPK activity 3-5-fold, while insulin treatment produced a 2.5-fold increase. The MAPK activity remained elevated for 1 h after either PDGF or insulin treatment. PDGF and insulin, but not EGF, caused a transient increase in the amount PI 3'-K activity coprecipitated with tyrosine phosphorylated proteins. Although PDGF and insulin caused a similar increase in the activities of these two enzymes, only insulin caused substantial increases in glucose utilization. Insulin increased the transport of glucose and the synthesis of lipid 4- and 17-fold, respectively, while PDGF did not affect these processes significantly. Glycogen synthesis was increased 15-fold in response to insulin and only 3-fold in response to PDGF. Thus, the activation of MAPK and PI 3'-K are not sufficient for the complete stimulation of glucose transport, lipid synthesis, or glycogen synthesis by hormones in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, suggesting a requirement for other signaling mechanisms that may be uniquely responsive to insulin.
