Abstract
Mutations in the tyrosine phosphatase Src homology-2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP2) are associated with a variety of human diseases. Most mutations in SHP2 increase its basal catalytic activity by disrupting autoinhibitory interactions between its phosphatase domain and N-terminal SH2 (phosphotyrosine recognition) domain. By contrast, some disease-associated mutations located in the ligand-binding pockets of the N- or C-terminal SH2 domains do not increase basal activity and likely exert their pathogenicity through alternative mechanisms. We lack a molecular understanding of how these SH2 mutations impact SHP2 structure, activity, and signaling. Here, we characterize five SHP2 SH2 domain ligand-binding pocket mutants through a combination of high-throughput biochemical screens, biophysical and biochemical measurements, and molecular dynamics simulations. We show that while some of these mutations alter binding affinity to phosphorylation sites, the T42A mutation in the N-SH2 domain is unique in that it also substantially alters ligand-binding specificity, despite being 8 to 10 Å from the specificity-determining region of the SH2 domain. This mutation exerts its effect on sequence specificity by remodeling the phosphotyrosine-binding pocket, altering the mode of engagement of both the phosphotyrosine and surrounding residues on the ligand. The functional consequence of this altered specificity is that the T42A mutant has biased sensitivity toward a subset of activating ligands and enhances downstream signaling. Our study highlights an example of a nuanced mechanism of action for a disease-associated mutation, characterized by a change in protein-protein interaction specificity that alters enzyme activation.

Abstract
A major consequence of insulin binding its receptor on fat and muscle cells is the stimulation of glucose transport into these tissues. This is achieved through an increase in the exocytic trafficking rate of the facilitative glucose transporter GLUT4 from intracellular stores to the cell surface. Delivery of GLUT4 to the cell surface requires the formation of functional SNARE complexes containing Syntaxin 4, SNAP23, and VAMP2. Insulin stimulates the formation of these complexes and concomitantly causes phosphorylation of Syntaxin 4. Here, we use a combination of biochemistry and cell biological approaches to provide a mechanistic link between these observations. We present data to support the hypothesis that Tyr-115 and Tyr-251 of Syntaxin 4 are direct substrates of activated insulin receptors, and that these residues modulate the protein's conformation and thus regulate the rate at which Syntaxin 4 forms SNARE complexes that deliver GLUT4 to the cell surface. This report provides molecular details on how the cell regulates SNARE-mediated membrane traffic in response to an external stimulus.

Abstract
The phosphatase SHP-2 plays an essential role in growth factor signaling and mutations in its locus is the cause of congenital and acquired pathologies. Mutations of SHP-2 are known to affect the activation of the RAS pathway. Gain-of-function mutations cause the Noonan syndrome, the most common non-chromosomal congenital disorder. In order to obtain a holistic picture of the intricate regulatory mechanisms underlying SHP-2 physiology and pathology, we set out to characterize perturbations of the cell phosphorylation profile caused by an altered localization of SHP-2. To describe the proteins whose activity may be directly or indirectly modulated by SHP-2 activity, we identified tyrosine peptides that are differentially phosphorylated in wild type SHP-2 cells and isogenic cells expressing a non-functional SHP-2 variant that cannot dephosphorylate the physiological substrates due to a defect in cellular localization upon growth factor stimulation. By an iTRAQ based strategy coupled to mass spectrometry, we have identified 63 phosphorylated tyrosine residues in 53 different proteins whose phosphorylation is affected by SHP-2 activity. Some of these confirm already established regulatory mechanisms while many others suggest new possible signaling routes that may contribute to the modulation of the ERK and p38 pathways by SHP-2. Interestingly many new proteins that we found to be regulated by SHP-2 activity are implicated in the formation and regulation of focal adhesions.

Abstract
The autophosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues occurs in the cytoplasmic region of the insulin receptor (IR) upon insulin binding, and this in turn initiates signal transduction. The R3 subfamily (Ptprb, Ptprh, Ptprj and Ptpro) of receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs) is characterized by an extracellular region with 6-17 fibronectin type III-like repeats and a cytoplasmic region with a single phosphatase domain. We herein identified the IR as a substrate for R3 RPTPs by using the substrate-trapping mutants of R3 RPTPs. The co-expression of R3 RPTPs with the IR in HEK293T cells suppressed insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the IR. In vitro assays using synthetic phosphopeptides revealed that R3 RPTPs preferentially dephosphorylated a particular phosphorylation site of the IR: Y960 in the juxtamembrane region and Y1146 in the activation loop. Among four R3 members, only Ptprj was co-expressed with the IR in major insulin target tissues, such as the skeletal muscle, liver and adipose tissue. Importantly, the activation of IR and Akt by insulin was enhanced, and glucose and insulin tolerance was improved in Ptprj-deficient mice. These results demonstrated Ptprj as a physiological enzyme that attenuates insulin signalling in vivo, and indicate that an inhibitor of Ptprj may be an insulin-sensitizing agent.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a major disorder that links obesity to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). It involves defects in the insulin actions owing to a reduced ability of insulin to trigger key signaling pathways in major metabolic tissues. The pathogenesis of insulin resistance involves several inhibitory molecules that interfere with the tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and its downstream effectors. Among those, growing interest has been developed toward the protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), a large family of enzymes that can inactivate crucial signaling effectors in the insulin signaling cascade by dephosphorylating their tyrosine residues. Herein we briefly review the role of several PTPs that have been shown to be implicated in the regulation of insulin action, and then focus on the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing SHP1 and SHP2 enzymes, since recent reports have indicated major roles for these PTPs in the control of insulin action and glucose metabolism. Finally, the therapeutic potential of targeting PTPs for combating insulin resistance and alleviating T2D will be discussed.

Abstract
Background Insulin stimulates exocytosis of GLUT4 from an intracellular store to the cell surface of fat and muscle cells. Fusion of GLUT4-containing vesicles with the plasma membrane requires the SNARE proteins Syntaxin 4, VAMP2 and the regulatory Sec1/Munc18 protein, Munc18c. Syntaxin 4 and Munc18c form a complex that is disrupted upon insulin treatment of adipocytes. Munc18c is tyrosine phosphorylated in response to insulin in these cells. Here, we directly test the hypothesis that tyrosine phosphorylation of Munc18c is responsible for the observed insulin-dependent abrogation of binding between Munc18c and Syntaxin 4. Results We show that Munc18c is directly phosphorylated by recombinant insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in vitro. Using pull-down assays, we show that phosphorylation abrogates binding of Munc18c to both Syntaxin 4 and the v-SNARE VAMP2, as does the introduction of a phosphomimetic mutation into Munc18c (Y521E). Conclusion Our data indicate that insulin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of Munc18c impairs the ability of Munc18c to bind its cognate SNARE proteins, and may therefore represent a regulatory step in GLUT4 traffic.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Chronic ethanol consumption may produce hepatic injury and impair the ability of the liver to regenerate principally through its action on insulin signaling. These effects are mediated by insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) via the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal regulated kinase (MAPK/Erk) pathway and by survival signals through phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (Akt). Because a protein phosphatase, phosphatase tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), has been reported to block insulin signaling through PI3K, we explored acute ethanol effects on signaling in the context of PTEN function. We measured upstream components of the insulin signal transduction pathway and Akt phosphorylation as an indicator of signaling through PI3K, including the generation of survival signals via glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta) and Bcl-2-associated death promoter (BAD). In addition, the physical association between PTEN and PI3K regulatory (p85alpha) and catalytic (p110alpha) subunits was evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. In Huh-7 cells, there was no effect of acute ethanol exposure on tyrosyl phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, IRS-1, and the association of IRS-1 with PI3K. However, Akt phosphorylation was impaired. The association of PTEN with the PI3K p85alpha subunit was substantially increased and led to the inhibition of downstream insulin-mediated survival signals through Akt, GSK3beta, and BAD; the ethanol effect was reversed by PTEN knockdown with small interfering RNA. These results were confirmed in the liver. CONCLUSION Short-term ethanol exposure rapidly attenuates insulin signaling. The major cellular mechanism involves the increased association of PTEN with the PI3K p85alpha subunit, which results in reduced phospho-Akt formation and impaired downstream survival signaling. These findings may have relevance to acute toxic effects of ethanol on the liver.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS We measured aspartyl (asparaginyl)-beta-hydroxylase (AAH) gene expression in human hepatocelluar carcinoma and surrounding uninvolved liver at both the mRNA and protein level and examined the regulation and function of this enzyme. METHODS Since growth of HCC is mediated by signaling through the insulin-receptor substrate, type 1 (IRS-1), we examined-if AAH is a downstream gene regulated by insulin and IGF-1 in HCC cells. In addition, IRS-1 regulation of AAH was examined in a transgenic (Tg) mouse model in which the human (h) IRS-1 gene was over-expressed in the liver, and an in vitro model in which a C-terminus truncated dominant-negative hIRS-1 cDNA (hIRS-DeltaC) was over-expressed in FOCUS HCC cells. The direct effects of AAH on motility and invasiveness were examined in AAH-transfected HepG2 cells. RESULTS Insulin and IGF-1 stimulation increased AAH mRNA and protein expression and motility in FOCUS and Hep-G2 cells. These effects were mediated by signaling through the Erk MAPK and PI3 kinase-Akt pathways. Over-expression of hIRS-1 resulted in high levels of AAH in Tg mouse livers, while over-expression of hIRS-DeltaC reduced AAH expression, motility, and invasiveness in FOCUS cells. Finally, over-expression of AAH significantly increased motility and invasiveness in HepG2 cells, whereas siRNA inhibition of AAH expression significantly reduced directional motility in FOCUS cells. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that enhanced AAH gene activity is a common feature of human HCC and growth factor signaling through IRS-1 regulates AAH expression and increases motility and invasion of HCC cells. Therefore, AAH may represent an important target for regulating tumor growth in vivo.

Abstract
Insulin resistance states as found in type 2 diabetes and obesity are frequently associated with hyperlipidemia. Both stimulatory and detrimental effects of free fatty acids (FFA) on pancreatic beta cells have long been recognized. Acute exposure of the pancreatic beta cell to both high glucose concentrations and saturated FFA results in a substantial increase of insulin release, whereas a chronic exposure results in desensitization and suppression of secretion. Reduction of plasma FFA levels in fasted rats or humans severely impairs glucose-induced insulin release but palmitate can augment insulin release in the presence of nonstimulatory concentrations of glucose. These results imply that changes in physiological plasma levels of FFA are important for regulation of beta-cell function. Although it is widely accepted that fatty acid (FA) metabolism (notably FA synthesis and/or formation of LC-acyl-CoA) is necessary for stimulation of insulin secretion, the key regulatory molecular mechanisms controlling the interplay between glucose and fatty acid metabolism and thus insulin secretion are not well understood but are now described in detail in this review. Indeed the correct control of switching between FA synthesis or oxidation may have critical implications for beta-cell function and integrity both in vivo and in vitro. LC-acyl-CoA (formed from either endogenously synthesized or exogenous FA) controls several aspects of beta-cell function including activation of certain types of PKC, modulation of ion channels, protein acylation, ceramide- and/or NO-mediated apoptosis, and binding to and activating nuclear transcriptional factors. The present review also describes the possible effects of FAs on insulin signaling. We have previously reported that acute exposure of islets to palmitate up-regulates some key components of the intracellular insulin signaling pathway in pancreatic islets. Another aspect considered in this review is the potential source of fatty acids for pancreatic islets in addition to supply in the blood. Lipids can be transferred from leukocytes (macrophages) to pancreatic islets in coculture. This latter process may provide an additional source of FAs that may play a significant role in the regulation of insulin secretion.

Abstract
Chronic ethanol consumption can cause sustained hepatocellular injury and inhibit the subsequent regenerative response. These effects of ethanol may be mediated by impaired hepatocyte survival mechanisms. The present study examines the effects of ethanol on survival signaling in the intact liver. Adult Long Evans rats were maintained on ethanol-containing or isocaloric control liquid diets for 8 weeks, after which the livers were harvested to measure mRNA levels, protein expression, and kinase or phosphatase activity related to survival or proapoptosis mechanisms. Chronic ethanol exposure resulted in increased hepatocellular labeling for activated caspase 3 and nuclear DNA damage as demonstrated using the TUNEL assay. These effects of ethanol were associated with reduced levels of tyrosyl phosphorylated (PY) IRS-1 and PI3 kinase, Akt kinase, and Erk MAPK activities and increased levels of phosphatase tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) mRNA, protein, and phosphatase activity in liver tissue. In vitro experiments demonstrated that ethanol increases PTEN expression and function in hepatocytes. However, analysis of signaling cascade pertinent to PTEN function revealed increased levels of nuclear p53 and Fas receptor mRNA but without corresponding increases in GSK-3 activity or activated BAD. Although fork-head transcription factor levels were increased in ethanol-exposed livers, virtually all of the fork-head protein detected by Western blot analysis was localized within the cytosolic fraction. In conclusion, chronic ethanol exposure impairs survival mechanisms in the liver because of inhibition of signaling through PI3 kinase and Akt and increased levels of PTEN. However, uncoupling of the signaling cascade downstream of PTEN that mediates apoptosis may account for the relatively modest degrees of ongoing cell loss observed in livers of chronic ethanol-fed rats.

Abstract
Hyperlipidemia is frequently associated with insulin resistance states as found in type 2 diabetes and obesity. Effects of free fatty acids (FFA) on pancreatic beta-cells have long been recognized. Acute exposure of the pancreatic beta-cell to FFA results in an increase of insulin release, whereas a chronic exposure results in desensitization and suppression of secretion. We recently showed that palmitate augments insulin release in the presence of non-stimulatory concentrations of glucose. Reduction of plasma FFA levels in fasted rats or humans severely impairs glucose-induced insulin release. These results imply that physiological plasma levels of FFA are important for beta-cell function. Although, it has been accepted that fatty acid oxidation is necessary for its stimulation of insulin secretion, the possible mechanisms by which fatty acids (FA) affect insulin secretion are discussed in this review. Long-chain acyl-CoA (LC-CoA) controls several aspects of the beta-cell function including activation of certain types of protein kinase C (PKC), modulation of ion channels, protein acylation, ceramide- and/or nitric oxide (NO)-mediated apoptosis, and binding to nuclear transcriptional factors. The present review also describes the possible effects of FA on insulin signaling. We showed for the first time that acute exposure of islets to palmitate upregulates the intracellular insulin-signaling pathway in pancreatic islets. Another aspect considered in this review is the source of FA for pancreatic islets. In addition to be exported to the medium, lipids can be transferred from leukocytes (macrophages) to pancreatic islets in co-culture. This process consists an additional source of FA that may plays a significant role to regulate insulin secretion.

Abstract
It has been shown that hyperglycaemia-induced defects in glucose transport and insulin action are mediated by increased flux of excess glucose through the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP). We have previously demonstrated that in rat adipocytes, increased flux through the HBP activates protein kinase C (PKC). The aim of the present study was to explore the mechanism for HBP-mediated activation of PKC. We show that activation of the HBP by either high glucose or glucosamine causes the translocation of PKC-zeta/lambda and PKC-epsilon but not other PKC isoforms tested (alpha, beta, delta). This translocation was inhibited by wortmannin, a PI 3-kinase inhibitor. Both high glucose and glucosamine caused widespread cellular activation of PI 3-kinase. We demonstrate that HBP-mediated activation of PI 3-kinase has an insulin-like effect to translocate GLUT4. We conclude that an acute increase of glucose flux through the HBP activates PI 3-kinase.

Abstract
Insulin is the principal regulatory hormone involved in the tight regulation of fuel metabolism. In response to blood glucose levels, it is secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas and exerts its effects by binding to cell surface receptors that are present on virtually all cell types and tissues. In humans, perturbations in insulin function and/or secretion lead to diabetes mellitus, a severe disorder primarily characterized by an inability to maintain blood glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, it is estimated that 90-95% of diabetic patients exhibit resistance to insulin action. Thus an understanding of insulin signal transduction and insulin resistance at the molecular level is crucial to the understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease. The insulin receptor (IR) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase that becomes activated upon ligand binding. Consequently, the receptor and its downstream substrates become tyrosine phosphorylated. This activates a series of intracellular signaling cascades which coordinately initiate the appropriate biological response. One important mechanism by which insulin signaling is regulated involves the protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), which may either act on the IR itself and/or its substrates. Two well characterized examples include leuckocyte antigen related (LAR) and protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B). The present review will discuss the current knowledge of these two and other potential PTPs involved in the insulin signaling pathway.

Abstract
To study whether protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms can interact with protein-tyrosine-phosphatases (PTPs) which are connected to the insulin signaling pathway, we co-overexpressed PKC isoforms together with insulin receptor, docking proteins, and the PTPs SHP1 and SHP2 in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells. After phorbol ester induced activation of PKC isoforms alpha, beta 1, beta 2, and eta, we could show a defined gel mobility shift of SHP2, indicating phosphorylation on serine/threonine residues. This phosphorylation was not dependent on insulin receptor or insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) overexpression and did not occur for the closely related phosphatase SHP1. Furthermore, PKC phosphorylation of SHP2 was completely blocked by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide and was not detectable when SHP2 was co-overexpressed with kinase negative mutants of PKC beta 1 and -beta 2. The phosphorylation also occurred on endogenous SHP2 in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably overexpressing PKC beta 2. Using point mutants of SHP2, we identified serine residues 576 and 591 as phosphorylation sites for PKC. However, no change of phosphatase activity by TPA treatment was detected in an in vitro assay. In summary, SHP2 is phosphorylated on serine residues 576 and 591 by PKC isoforms alpha, beta 1, beta 2, and eta.

Abstract
Sucrose feeding reduces the ability of insulin to suppress glucose production and hepatic gluconeogenesis. The present study examined the effect of a high-sucrose diet on early insulin-signaling steps in the liver. Rats were provided a high-starch (STD, control diet) or high-sucrose diet (HSD) for 3 wk. On the day of study, overnight-fasted rats were anesthetized and injected with either saline (n = 5/diet group) or insulin (2 mU/kg, n = 5/diet group) via the portal vein. Portal venous blood and liver tissue were harvested 2 min after injections. Portal vein plasma glucose levels were not significantly different among groups, pooled average 147 +/- 12 mg/dl. Western blot analysis revealed no significant differences in the amount of insulin receptor (IR), insulin receptor substrates-1 and -2 (IRS-1, IRS-2), and the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. In contrast, the amount of the p110beta subunit of PI 3-kinase was increased approximately 2-fold in HSD vs. STD (P < 0.05). After saline injection, tyrosine phosphorylation (pY) of IR, IRS-1, and IRS-2 was not significantly different between groups. However, PI 3-kinase activity associated with phosphorylated proteins was increased approximately 40% in HSD vs. STD (P < 0.05). After insulin injection, pY of the IR was not different between groups, whereas pY of IRS-1 and IRS-2 was reduced (P < 0.05) in HSD vs. STD. In addition, association of IRS-1 and IRS-2 with p85 was significantly reduced in HSD vs. STD. These data demonstrate that an HSD impairs insulin-stimulated early postreceptor signaling (pY of IRS proteins, IRS interaction with p85). Furthermore, the increased amount of p110beta and increased basal PI 3-kinase activity suggest a diet-induced compensatory response.

Abstract
We have examined the requirement of the protein tyrosine phosphatase Src Homology Phosphatase 2 (SHP2) for insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis. To this end, 3T3L1 fibroblasts were stably transfected with either wild type or a catalytically inactive C463A-mutant of SHP2, and analysed for insulin-induced glycogen synthesis, tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor and IRS-1, and activation of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI 3'-kinase). Glycogen synthesis was stimulated 9.1+/-0.9-fold by insulin in untransfected cells. In cells expressing the dominant-negative C463A-SHP2 mutant, the stimulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin was strongly enhanced (18.7+/-2.7-fold stimulation), while this response was impaired in cells overexpressing wild-type SHP2 (6.6+/-1.1-fold stimulation). When exploring the early post-receptor signalling pathways that contribute to glycogen synthesis, we found that insulin stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1, and the activation of IRS-1-associated PI 3'-kinase more strongly in C463A-SHP2 expressing 3T3L1-cells (18.1+/-4.7-fold) than in parental 3T3L1 cells (6.8+/-0.5-fold). In 3T3L1 cells overexpressing wild-type SHP2, the insulin stimulation of IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation and the activation of PI 3'-kinase (4.5+/-1.0-fold) were impaired. An enhanced activity of SHP2 leads to negative modulation of insulin signalling by reducing the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and the concomitant activation of PI 3'-kinase. This results in an impaired ability of insulin to stimulate glycogen synthesis.

Abstract
B cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling causes tyrosine phosphorylation of the Gab1 docking protein. This allows phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and the SHP2 tyrosine phosphatase to bind to Gab1. In this report, we tested the hypothesis that Gab1 acts as an amplifier of PI3K- and SHP2-dependent signaling in B lymphocytes. By overexpressing Gab1 in the WEHI-231 B cell line, we found that Gab1 can potentiate BCR-induced phosphorylation of Akt, a PI3K-dependent response. Gab1 expression also increased BCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP2 as well as the binding of Grb2 to SHP2. We show that the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of Gab1 is required for BCR-induced phosphorylation of Gab1 and for Gab1 participation in BCR signaling. Moreover, using confocal microscopy, we show that BCR ligation can induce the translocation of Gab1 from the cytosol to the plasma membrane and that this requires the Gab1 PH domain as well as PI3K activity. These findings are consistent with a model in which the binding of the Gab1 PH domain to PI3K-derived lipids brings Gab1 to the plasma membrane, where it can be tyrosine-phosphorylated and then act as an amplifier of BCR signaling.

Abstract
The regulation of insulin receptor (IR) tyrosine (tyr) phosphorylation is a key step in the control of insulin signaling. Augmented IR tyr dephosphorylation by protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) may contribute to insulin resistance. To investigate this possibility in hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance, primary cultured rat adipocytes were rendered insulin-resistant by chronic exposure (18 h) to 15 mmo/l glucose combined with 10(-7) mol/l insulin. Insulin-resistant adipocytes showed a decrease in insulin sensitivity and a maximum response of 2-deoxyglucose uptake, which was associated with a decrease in maximum insulin-stimulated IR tyr phosphorylation in situ. To assess tyr dephosphorylation, IRs of insulin-stimulated permeabilized adipocytes were labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP and chased for 2 min with unlabeled ATP in the presence of EDTA. In a nonradioactive protocol, insulin-stimulated adipocytes were permeabilized and exposed to EDTA and erbstatin for 2 min, and IRs were immunoblotted with anti-phosphotyrosine (pY) antibodies. Both methods showed a similar diminished extent of IR tyr dephosphorylation in resistant cells. Immunoblotting of four candidate IR-PTPs demonstrated no change in PTP1B or the SH2 domain containing phosphatase-2 (SHP-2), whereas a significant decrease in leukocyte antigen-related phosphatase (LAR) (51 +/- 3% of control) and an increase in PTP-alpha (165 +/- 16%) were found. Activity of immunoprecipitated PTPs toward a triple tyr phosphorylated IR peptide revealed a correlation with protein content for PTP1B, SHP-2, and LAR but a decrease in apparent specific activity of PTP-alpha. The data indicate that decreased IR tyr phosphorylation in hyperglycemia-induced insulin resistance is not due to enhanced dephosphorylation. The diminished IR tyr dephosphorylation observed in this model is associated with decreased LAR protein content and activity.

Abstract
A high fructose diet induces insulin resistance in rats, although the exact molecular mechanism involved is unknown. In this study, we used immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting to examine the levels and phosphorylation status of the insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), as well as the association of the IRS-1 with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), and phosphotyrosine phosphatase (SHP2) in the liver and muscle of rats fed a control or high fructose diet for 28 d. There were no differences in IR and the IRS-1 protein levels in the liver and muscle of rats fed the control and high fructose diets. However, tyrosine-phosphorylation of the insulin receptor after insulin stimulation was reduced to 71 +/- 2% (P < 0.05) of control in the liver of the fructose-fed rats. In samples previously immunoprecipitated with anti-IRS-1 antibody and blotted with antiphosphotyrosine antibody, the insulin-stimulated IRS-1 phosphorylation levels in the liver and muscle of the fructose-fed group were only 70 +/- 6% (P < 0.05) and 76 +/- 5% (P < 0.05) of those of control rats, respectively. The insulin-stimulated IRS-1 association with PI 3-kinase was reduced to 84 +/- 3% (P < 0.05) in the liver and to 84 +/- 4% (P < 0.05) in the muscle of the fructose-fed group compared with control rats. Insulin-stimulated IRS-1 association with SHP2 was reduced to 79 +/- 5% (P < 0.05) in liver of the fructose-fed rats. These data suggest that changes in the early steps of insulin signal transduction may have an important role in the insulin resistance observed in these rats.

Abstract
Using ratiometric Ca2+ imaging and patch-clamp measurement of Ca2+ channel activity, we investigated Ca2+ signaling induced by vanadium compounds in Jurkat T lymphocytes and rat basophilic leukemia cells. In the presence of external Ca2+, vanadium compounds produced sustained or oscillatory Ca2+ elevations; in nominally Ca2+-free medium, a transient Ca2+ rise was generated. Vanadate-induced Ca2+ signaling was blocked by heparin, a competitive inhibitor of the 1,4, 5-inositol trisphosphate (IP3) receptor, suggesting that Ca2+ influx is secondary to depletion of IP3-sensitive Ca2+ stores. In Jurkat T cells, vanadate also activated the Ca2+-dependent transcription factor, NF-AT. Intracellular dialysis with vanadate activated Ca2+ influx through Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels with kinetics comparable to those of dialysis with IP3. Neither phosphatase inhibitors nor nonhydrolyzable nucleotide analogues modified CRAC channel activation. The action of vanadate, but not IP3, was prevented by the thiol-reducing agent DTT. In addition, the activation of CRAC channels by vanadate was mimicked by the thiol-oxidizing agent chloramine T. These results suggest that vanadate enhances Ca2+ signaling via thiol oxidation of a proximal element in the signal transduction cascade.

Abstract
In response to insulin, tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin receptor is stimulated, leading to autophosphorylation and tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins including insulin receptor subunit (IRS)-1, IRS-2, and Shc. Phosphorylation of these proteins leads to activation of downstream events that mediate insulin action. Insulin receptor kinase activity is requisite for the biological effects of insulin, and understanding regulation of insulin receptor phosphorylation and kinase activity is essential to understanding insulin action. Receptor tyrosine kinase activity may be altered by direct changes in tyrosine kinase activity, itself, or by dephosphorylation of the insulin receptor by protein-tyrosine phosphatases. After 1 min of insulin stimulation, the insulin receptor was tyrosine phosphorylated 8-fold more and Shc was phosphorylated 50% less in 32D cells containing both IRS-1 and insulin receptors (32D/IR+IRS-1) than in 32D cells containing only insulin receptors (32D/IR), insulin receptors and IRS-2 (32D/IR+IRS-2), or insulin receptors and a form of IRS-1 that cannot be phosphorylated on tyrosine residues (32D/IR+IRS-1F18). Therefore, IRS-1 and IRS-2 appeared to have different effects on insulin receptor phosphorylation and downstream signaling. Preincubation of cells with pervanadate greatly decreased protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity in all four cell lines. After pervanadate treatment, tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptors in insulin-treated 32D/IR, 32D/ IR+IRS-2, and 32D/IR+IRS-1F18 cells was markedly increased, but pervanadate had no effect on insulin receptor phosphorylation in 32D/IR+IRS-1 cells. The presence of tyrosine-phosphorylated IRS-1 appears to increase insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation and potentially tyrosine kinase activity via inhibition of protein-tyrosine phosphatase(s). This effect of IRS-1 on insulin receptor phosphorylation is unique to IRS-1, as IRS-2 had no effect on insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation. Therefore, IRS-1 and IRS-2 appear to function differently in their effects on signaling downstream of the insulin receptor. IRS-1 may play a major role in regulating insulin receptor phosphorylation and enhancing downstream signaling after insulin stimulation.

Abstract
Insulin stimulation increases cell proliferation and energy metabolism by activating the insulin receptor substrate I (IRS-1)-signaling pathways. This downstream signaling is mediated by interactions of specific tyrosyl phosphorylated (PY) IRS-1 motifs with SH2-containing molecules such as growth-factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2) and Syp. Ethanol inhibits insulin-stimulated tyrosyl phosphorylation of IRS-1 and DNA synthesis. This study explores the roles of the Grb2- and Syp-binding motifs of IRS-1 in relation to the inhibitory effects of ethanol on insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) expression, and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which is known to be essential for cell proliferation. NIH3T3 cells were stably transfected with wild-type IRS-1, or IRS-1 mutated at the Grb2 (IRS-1deltaGrb2), Syp (IRS-1deltaSyp), or Grb2 and Syp (IRS-1deltaGrb2deltaSyp)- binding sites. Cells transfected with IRS-1 had increased levels of DNA synthesis, PCNA, GAPDH, and activated MAPK. The IRS-1deltaGrb2 transfectants were highly responsive to insulin stimulation, achieving levels of GAPDH, PCNA, and activated MAPK that were higher than control. In contrast, the IRS-1deltaSyp and IRS-1deltaGrb2deltaSyp transfectants had reduced levels of DNA synthesis, PCNA, and activated MAPK. Ethanol exposure decreased insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis, PCNA, GAPDH, and activated MAPK levels in all clones, but the wild-type IRS-1 transfectants were relatively resistant, and the IRS-1deltaGrb2 transfectants were extraordinarily sensitive to these inhibitory effects of ethanol. The findings suggest that insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis and PCNA expression are mediated through the Syp-binding domain, whereas GAPDH expression and MAPK activation are modulated through both the Grb2 and Syp motifs of IRS-1. In addition, ethanol exposure may preferentially inhibit downstream signaling that requires interaction between Syp and PY-IRS-1.

Activation of tyrosine kinases by numerous growth factor and cytokine receptors leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-proteins. Tyrosine-phosphorylated motifs on the IRS proteins bind to the SH2 domains in proteins that mediate downstream signals, including phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase, GRB-2, and SHP-2. We investigated the function of the two SHP-2 binding COOH-terminal tyrosines of IRS-1 by replacing them with phenylalanine (IRS-1(FCT)). IRS-1(FCT) failed to bind SHP-2 or mediate its tyrosine phosphorylation during insulin stimulation. Although several reports suggest a critical role for SHP-2 in insulin stimulated mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and cell proliferation, IRS-1(FCT) mediated these effects normally in 32D cells. Indeed, IRS-1(FCT) exhibited increased tyrosine phosphorylation, phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase binding and activation of protein synthesis in response to insulin. These results suggest that SHP-2 attentuates the phosphorylation and downstream signal transmission of IRS-1 and that the interaction of IRS-1 and SHP-2 is an important regulatory event which attenuates insulin metabolic responses.

Abstract
The newly identified insulin receptor (IR) substrate, Gab1 [growth factor receptor bound 2 (Grb2)-associated binder-1] is rapidly phosphorylated on several tyrosine residues by the activated IR. Phosphorylated Gab1 acts as a docking protein for Src homology-2 (SH2) domain-containing proteins. These include the regulatory subunit p85 of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and phosphotyrosine phosphatase, SHP-2. In this report, using a modified version of the yeast two-hybrid system, we localized which Gab1 phospho-tyrosine residues are required for its interaction with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and with SHP-2. Our results demonstrate that to interact with p85 or SHP-2 SH2 domains, Gab1 must be tyrosine phosphorylated by IR. Further, we found that Gab1 tyrosine 472 is the major site for association with p85, while tyrosines 447 and 589 are participating in this process. Concerning Gab1/SHP-2 interaction, only mutation of tyrosine 627 prevents binding of Gab1 to SHP-2 SH2 domains, suggesting the occurrence of a monovalent binding event. Finally, we examined the role of Gab1 PH (Pleckstrin homology) domain in Gab1/IR interaction and in Gab1 tyrosine phosphorylation by IR. Using the modified two-hybrid system and in vitro experiments, we found that the Gab1 PH domain is not important for IR/ Gab1 interaction and for Gab1 tyrosine phosphorylation. In contrast, in intact mammalian cells, Gab1 PH domain appears to be crucial for its tyrosine phosphorylation and association with SHP-2 after insulin stimulation.

Abstract
SHP-2 is an ubiquitously expressed cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase composed of two amino-terminal SH2 domains, a central phosphatase domain and a carboxy-terminal tail. Upon activation of cells with different stimuli, SHP-2 is recruited to the plasma membrane where it can associate with a number of tyrosine phosphorylated molecules, including receptor tyrosine kinases (e.g. growth factor receptors), multisite adapter proteins and cell adhesion molecules. SHP-2 is thought to function as a positive mediator of signals generated by activated membrane receptor complexes although the number and diversity of binding partners and substrates identified thus far suggests that it may have other functions. It is likely that several negative regulatory influences exist but that these are obscured by its positive function making the investigation of the inhibitory effects of this phosphatase difficult. The positive regulatory role of SHP-2 in signal cascades leading to cell growth suggests involvement in tumorigenesis, raising the possibility that SHP-2 may be a target in the treatment of some forms of cancer.

Abstract
A physiologically relevant response to insulin, stimulation of prolactin promoter activity in GH4 pituitary cells, was used as an assay to study the specificity of protein-tyrosine phosphatase function. Receptor-like protein-tyrosine phosphatase alpha (RPTPalpha) blocks the effect of insulin to increase prolactin gene expression but potentiates the effects of epidermal growth factor and cAMP on prolactin promoter activity. RPTPalpha was the only protein-tyrosine phosphatase tested that did this. Thus, the effect of RPTPalpha on prolactin-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) promoter activity is specific by two criteria. A number of potential RPTPalpha targets were ruled out by finding (a) that they are not affected or (b) that they are not on the pathway to insulin-increased prolactin-CAT activity. The negative effect of RPTPalpha on insulin activation of the prolactin promoter is not due to reduced phosphorylation or kinase activity of the insulin receptor or to reduced phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 or Shc. Inhibitor studies suggest that insulin-increased prolactin gene expression is mediated by a Ras-like GTPase but is not mitogen-activated protein kinase dependent. Experiments with inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase suggest that insulin-increased prolactin-CAT expression is phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-independent. These results suggest that RPTPalpha may be a physiological regulator of insulin action.

Abstract
Ewing's family of tumors is characterized by a well described reciprocal translocation, t(11;22)(q24;q12), which produces a fusion protein (EWS/FLI-1) that transforms mouse fibroblasts. The EWS/FLI-1 fusion protein has been shown to act as a potent chimeric transcription factor. Overexpression of insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) has been implicated in many tumor models as playing a role in cell growth and tumorigenesis. In addition, blockade of the IGF-IR inhibits the growth of Ewing's family of tumors cells. Therefore, we first studied whether the presence of the IGF-IR is required for transformation by the EWS/FLI-1 fusion protein. To perform this study, we used two previously described fibroblast cell lines, R- and W, derived from an IGF-IR knockout mouse and a wild-type littermate, respectively. Neither W nor R- cells without the fusion protein formed soft agar colonies. However, W clones expressing the fusion message (WF cells) formed soft agar colonies, whereas R- clones expressing the fusion message (R-F cells) did not form soft agar colonies. Because the IGF-IR is required for EWS/FLI-1 transformation, we chose to investigate whether altered signaling occurs from the IGF-IR when the EWS/FLI-1 fusion is present. WF cells demonstrated a greater degree of ligand-stimulated insulin receptor substrate-1 phosphorylation when compared with W cells, suggesting that expression of the EWS/FLI-1 fusion protein alters the IGF-IR signaling pathway.

Abstract
In a number of cell lines responsive to basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), two major tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, of molecular weights around 120kDa and 90kDa, are precipitated along with the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 from the lysates of stimulated cells. The docker protein Gab-1 represents at least part of the 120kDa protein(s). The p90 protein was identified as the SNT protein. The two SH2 domains of SHP2 bind directly and synergistically to tyrosine phosphorylated SNT. Tyrosine phosphorylated SNT does not bind SHP1 and does not appear to be an in vivo substrate of SHP2 but is likely to function as an adapter protein in FGF-signalling.

Abstract
Fms is a tyrosine kinase-containing receptor for macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) that regulates survival, growth, and differentiation of cells along the monocyte/macrophage lineage. M-CSF stimulation of murine myeloid FDC-P1 cells expressing Fms resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of signal transduction proteins, including an unidentified 100-kDa protein. This 100-kDa protein associated with the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 but not with the related phosphatase SHP-1. The kinetics of tyrosine phosphorylation of p100 and SHP-2 suggest that p100 may be a direct substrate of SHP-2. p100 bound directly to the SH2 domains of both SHP-2 and the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. The 100-kDa protein did not appear to bind directly to Fms, Ship, Cbl, Shc, or Grb2, although all of these proteins were coimmunoprecipitated with p85 after M-CSF stimulation. Association of p100 with SHP-2 and p85 did not require the major autophosphorylation sites on Fms nor binding of p85 to Fms. A tyrosine phosphorylated protein of 100 kDa also coprecipitated with SHP-2 from several other myeloid cell lines after M-CSF stimulation but was not seen in immunoprecipitates from Rat2 fibroblasts expressing Fms. Stimulation of FDC-P1 cells with additional cytokines also resulted in coprecipitation of a 100-kDa protein with SHP-2. p100 may therefore be a common component of the signaling pathways of cytokine receptors in myeloid cells.

Abstract
Interactions between SHP-2 phosphotyrosine phosphatase and JAK tyrosine kinases have recently been implicated in cytokine signal transduction. However, the molecular basis of these interactions is not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate that SHP-2 is tyrosine-phosphorylated by and associated with JAK1 and JAK2 but not JAK3 in COS-1 cell cotransfection experiments. SHP-2 phosphatase activity appears not to be required for JAK and SHP-2 interactions because SHP-2 with a mutation at amino acid 463 from Cys to Ser, which renders SHP-2 inactive, can still bind JAKs. We further demonstrate that SHP-2 SH2 domains (amino acids 1-209) are not essential for the association of JAKs with SHP-2, and the region between amino acids 232 and 272 in SHP-2 is important for the interactions. Furthermore, tyrosine residues 304 and 327 in SHP-2 are phosphorylated by JAKs, and phosphorylated SHP-2 can associate with the downstream adapter protein Grb2. Finally, deletion of the N terminus but not the kinase-like domain of JAK2 abolishes the association of JAK2 with SHP-2. Taken together, these studies identified novel sequences for SHP-2 and JAK interactions that suggest unique signaling mechanisms mediated by these two molecules.

Abstract
Syp is a protein tyrosine phosphatase implicated in insulin and growth factor signaling. To evaluate the role of syp in insulin's regulation of plasma glucose, we generated knockout mice. Homozygous knockout mice die prior to day 10.5 of embryonic development. Hemizygous mice express half the levels of syp protein compared with their wild type littermates but do not display any gross morphological changes. Total body weight (age 2-10 weeks) and plasma insulin and glucose levels both in fasting and glucose-challenged states were comparable in the wild type and the hemizygous mice. No differences were observed in insulin-induced glucose uptake in soleus muscle and epididymal fat; insulin inhibition of lipolysis was also similar. We injected insulin into the portal vein of the mice to examine upstream events of the insulin signaling cascade. Tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) from hemizygous tissue was similar to that of wild type tissue. Association of the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase to IRS-1 increased an average of 2-fold in both groups. We did not observe an increase of IRS-1/syp association after insulin administration, but we did note a significant basal association in both wild type and hemizygous tissue. Our results do not support a major role for syp in the acute in vivo metabolic actions of insulin.

Abstract
To understand the physiological role of protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTPase 1B) in insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) signaling, we established clonal cell lines overexpressing wild type or inactive mutant (C215S) PTPase 1B in cells overexpressing insulin (Hirc) or IGF-I (CIGFR) receptors. PTPase 1B overexpression in transfected cells was verified by immunoblot analysis with a monoclonal PTPase 1B antibody. Subfractionation of parental cells demonstrated that greater than 90% of PTPase activity was localized in the Triton X-100-soluble particulate (P1) cell fraction. PTPase activity in the P1 fraction of cells overexpressing wild type PTPase 1B was 3-6-fold higher than parental cells but was unaltered in all fractions from C215S PTPase 1B-containing cells. The overexpression of wild type and C215S PTPase 1B had no effects on intrinsic receptor kinase activity, growth rate, or general cell morphology. The effects of PTPase 1B overexpression on cellular protein tyrosine phosphorylation were examined by anti-phosphotyrosine immunoblot analysis. No differences were apparent under basal conditions, but hormone-stimulated receptor autophosphorylation and/or insulin receptor substrate tyrosine phosphorylation were inhibited in cells overexpressing wild type PTPase 1B and increased in cells expressing mutant PTPase 1B, in comparison with parental cells. Metabolic signaling, assessed by ligand-stimulated [14C]glucose incorporation into glycogen, was also inhibited in cells overexpressing active PTPase 1B and enhanced in cells containing C215S PTPase 1B. These data strongly suggest that PTPase 1B acts as a negative regulator of insulin and IGF-I signaling.

Abstract
TNF induces cytotoxicity in human tumor cells through a receptor-mediated process with unknown signaling characteristics. Evidence suggests that overexpression of transmembrane growth factor receptors with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity may suppress the antiproliferative or cytotoxic activity of TNF, suggesting antagonism between these two signaling pathways in tumor cells. To investigate TNF cytotoxic signal transduction, ME-180 cervical carcinoma cell variants were isolated that expressed complete cytotoxic sensitivity (ME-180S) or resistance (ME-180R) to TNF but identical levels of p55 TNF receptor expression. ME-180R cells expressed threefold higher EGFR than the ME-180S cell line and TNF treatment stimulated EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation only in resistant cells. Activation of tyrosine phosphorylation in ME-180R cells was TNF concentration dependent and maximally stimulated (three- to-five-fold) after 10-15 minutes of treatment. Other tyrosine phosphoproteins were not affected by TNF incubation demonstrating specific TNF-stimulated tyrosine phosphomodulation of EGFR. Pretreatment with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor tryphostin before incubation with TNF resulted in partial reversal of TNF cytotoxic resistance in ME-180R cells and enhanced TNF responsiveness in ME-180S cells, suggesting a "protective" role for tyrosine phosphorylation in TNF-induced cytotoxicity. Together these results demonstrate that TNF-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation is differentially regulated in sensitive and resistant tumor cells and may play a critical role in the cytotoxic signaling process through differential expression or regulation of tyrosine protein kinases and phosphatases.

Abstract
A monoclonal antibody has been produced which immunoprecipitates 58- and 53-kDa proteins which are rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated in insulin-treated cells. These proteins can also be tyrosine phosphorylated in vitro by the isolated human insulin receptor. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation of these proteins is also observed in cells expressing a transforming chicken c-Src (mutant Phe-527) and in cells with the activated tyrosine kinase domains of the Drosophila insulin receptor, human insulin-like growth factor I receptor, and human insulin receptor-related receptor. P58/53 did not appear to associate with either the GTPase activating protein of Ras (called GAP) or the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase by either co-immunoprecipitation experiments or in Far Westerns with the SH2 domains of these two proteins. Since p58/53 did not appear, by immunoblotting, to be related to any previously described tyrosine kinase substrate such as the SH2 containing proteins SHC and the tyrosine phosphatase Syp, the protein was purified in sufficient amounts to obtain peptide sequence. This sequence was utilized to isolate a cDNA clone that encodes a previously uncharacterized 53-kDa protein which, when expressed in mammalian cells, is tyrosine phosphorylated by the insulin receptor.

Abstract
The expression of insulin receptor substrate-I (IRS-I) mRNA was demonstrated in rat luteal cells by Northern blot analysis, in situ hybridization as well as by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Western blot with a polyclonal anti IRS-I antibody showed the presence of a 183 kDa protein which corresponds to the size of IRS-I reported in other tissues. Further studies were performed to determine whether human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) can interact with the insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) signaling pathway to increase tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-I. While hCG alone was ineffective in stimulating the phosphorylation of IRS-I, IGF-I mediated phosphorylation of IRS-I was increased by prior exposure to hCG. These results were further confirmed by the immunoprecipitation of IRS-I from the lysate of hCG- and IGF-I-treated luteal cell cultures followed by Western blotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. Similarly, pretreatment with forskolin also increased IGF-I stimulated IRS-I phosphorylation. The increased tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-I seen in response to IGF-I stimulation following treatment with either hCG or forskolin was not due to an increase in IRS-I content. Furthermore, IGF-I receptor tyrosine kinase activity was not affected by forskolin, suggesting that the increase in IRS-I tyrosine phosphorylation was not the result of an increase in its activity. Thus, we conclude that hCG/LH and IGF-I signaling pathways 'cross-talk' to increase the levels of IRS-I tyrosine phosphorylation. The observed increase in IRS-I tyrosine phosphorylation may be the result of an increase in the stability of the phosphorylated form of IRS-I.

Abstract
UNLABELLED A number of vanadium compounds (vanadate, vanadyl sulfate, metavanadate) have insulin-mimicking actions both in vitro and in vivo. They have multiple biological effects in cultured cells and interact directly with various enzymes. The inhibitory action on phosphoprotein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) and enhancement of cellular tyrosine phosphorylation appear to be the most relevant to explain the ability to mimic insulin. We demonstrated that in rat adipocytes both acute insulin effects, e.g. stimulation of IGF-II and transferrin binding and a chronic effect, insulin receptor downregulation, were stimulated by vanadate. Vanadate also enhanced insulin binding, particularly at very low insulin concentrations, associated with increased receptor affinity. This resulted in increased adipocyte insulin sensitivity. Finally vanadate augmented the extent of activation of the insulin receptor kinase by submaximal insulin concentrations. This was associated with a prolongation of the insulin biological response, lipogenesis, after removal of hormone. IN CONCLUSION in rat adipocytes vanadate promotes insulin action by three mechanisms, 1) a direct insulin-mimetic action, 2) an enhancement of insulin sensitivity and 3) a prolongation of insulin biological response. These data suggest that PTP inhibitors have potential as useful therapeutic agents in insulin-resistant and relatively insulin-deficient forms of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been shown to induce intestinal proliferation and maturation; however, little information is available regarding substrates of the intestinal EGF receptor tyrosine kinase. The purpose of this study was to determine if src homologous collagen-like protein (Shc) was an in vivo substrate of the intestinal EGF receptor. METHODS Ten-day-old rats were treated with EGF or were breast-fed. In some experiments, IEC-6 cells were treated with EGF. Intestinal tissue and cell fractions were studied by immunodetection to compare the tyrosine phosphorylation state and the subcellular localization of intestinal proteins. RESULTS The total tyrosine phosphorylation state of intestinal proteins was increased threefold by EGF. Tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor and Shc were rapidly increased by EGF. The association of Grb2 with Shc increased fourfold and fivefold. Plasma membrane translocation of Shc and associated phosphotyrosyl proteins was increased within 30 seconds of EGF treatment. CONCLUSIONS Shc is a substrate of the intestinal EGF receptor in vivo. EGF-induced association of Shc with the adapter protein Grb2 may have implications for activation of the p21ras signaling pathway in the intestine. The EGF-induced membrane association of Shc with two other phosphotyrosyl proteins suggests involvement of Shc in additional aspects of EGF-receptor signaling in the intestine.

Abstract
Insulin causes the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) through complexation of tyrosine-phosphorylated YMXM motifs on insulin receptor substrate 1 with the Src homology 2 domains of PI 3-kinase. Previous studies with inhibitors have indicated that activation of PI 3-kinase is necessary for the stimulation of glucose transport in adipocytes. Here, we investigate whether this activation is sufficient for this effect. Short peptides containing two tyrosine-phosphorylated or thiophosphorylated YMXM motifs potently activated PI 3-kinase in the cytosol from 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Introduction of the phosphatase-resistant thiophosphorylated peptide into 3T3-L1 adipocytes through permeabilization with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin stimulated PI 3-kinase as strongly as insulin. However, under the same conditions the peptide increased glucose transport into the permeabilized cells only 20% as well as insulin. Determination of the distribution of the glucose transporter isotype GLUT4 by confocal immunofluorescence showed that GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane can account for the effect of the peptide. These results suggest that one or more other insulin-triggered signaling pathways, besides the PI 3-kinase one, participate in the stimulation of glucose transport.

Abstract
Binding of insulin to its receptor (IR) causes rapid autophosphorylation with concomitant activation of its tyrosine kinase which transmits the signal by phosphorylating cellular substrates. The IR activity is controlled by protein-tyrosine phosphatases, but those directly involved in regulating the insulin receptor and its signaling pathways have not yet been identified. Using baby hamster kidney cells overexpressing the IR and a novel insulin-based selection principle, we established stable cell lines with functionally coupled expression of the IR and protein-tyrosine phosphatases. The two closely related protein-tyrosine phosphatases alpha and epsilon were identified as negative regulators of IR tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) have been postulated to balance the steady-state phosphorylation and the activation state of the insulin receptor and its substrate proteins. To explore whether PTP1B, a widely expressed, non-receptor-type PTPase, regulates insulin signaling, we used osmotic shock to load rat KRC-7 hepatoma cells with affinity-purified neutralizing antibodies that immunoprecipitate and inactivate the enzymatic activity of recombinant rat PTP1B in vitro. In cells loaded with PTP1B antibody, insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase activity were increased by 42% and 38%, respectively, compared with control cells loaded with preimmune IgG (p < 0.005). In order to characterize the potential site(s) of action of PTP1B in insulin signaling, we also determined that insulin-stimulated receptor autophosphorylation and insulin receptor substrate 1 tyrosine phosphorylation were increased 2.2- and 2.0-fold, respectively, and that insulin-stimulated receptor kinase activity toward an exogenous peptide substrate was increased by 57% in the PTP1B antibody-loaded cells. Osmotic loading did not alter the cellular content of PTP1B protein, suggesting that the antibody acts in the cell by sterically blocking catalytic interactions between PTP1B and its physiological substrates. These studies demonstrate that PTP1B has a role in the negative regulation of insulin signaling and acts, at least in part, directly at the level of the insulin receptor. These results also show that insulin signaling can be enhanced by the inhibition of specific PTPases, a maneuver that has potential clinical relevance in the treatment of insulin resistance and Type II diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Immunoprecipitation of the cytosolic Src homology 2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase, SHPTP2, from insulin-stimulated 3T3L1 adipocytes or Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing the human insulin receptor resulted in the coimmunoprecipitation of a diffuse tyrosine-phosphorylated band in the 115-kDa protein region on SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Although platelet-derived growth factor induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor and SHPTP2, there was no significant increase in the coimmunoprecipitation of tyrosine-phosphorylated pp115 with SHPTP2. SHPTP2 was also associated with tyrosine-phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate-1, but this only accounted for < 2% of the total immunoreactive SHPTP2 protein. Similarly, only a small fraction of the total amount of tyrosine-phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate-1 (< 4%) was associated with SHPTP2. Expression and immunoprecipitation of a Myc epitope-tagged wild-type SHPTP2 (Myc-WT-SHPTP2) and a catalytically inactive point mutant of SHPTP2 (Myc-C/S-SHPTP2) also demonstrated an insulin-dependent association of SHPTP2 with tyrosine-phosphorylated pp115. Furthermore, expression of the catalytically inactive SHPTP2 mutant resulted in a marked enhancement in the amount of coimmunoprecipitated tyrosine-phosphorylated pp115 compared with the expression of wild-type SHPTP2. These data indicate that the insulin-stimulated tyrosine-phosphorylated 115-kDa protein is the predominant in vivo SHPTP2-binding protein and that pp115 may function as a physiological substrate for the SHPTP2 protein-tyrosine phosphatase.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation of HepG2 and NIH 3T3 cells expressing high levels of the human EGF receptor (3T3/ER) resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of a 115-kDa protein that was co-immunoprecipitated with the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase, SHPTP2. In contrast, activation of the EGF receptor resulted in a relatively low level (< 1%) of the total SHPTP2 pool associated with the tyrosine-autophosphorylated EGF receptor itself. Similarly, quantitative immunoprecipitations also demonstrated that only trace amounts of the total EGF receptor pool were associated with SHPTP2. Further, activation of the EGF receptor did not result in any significant tyrosine phosphorylation of SHPTP2 and/or the association of the 115-kDa protein with Grb2. In comparison, activation of Jurkat cells with a T cell receptor agonist monoclonal antibody resulted in the co-immunoprecipitation of a 120-kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein with Grb2 and a 105-kDa protein with SHPTP2. Thus, these data have identified the 115- and 105-kDa proteins as the predominant SHPTP2-associated phosphotyrosine proteins in EGF- and T cell receptor-activated cells, respectively.

Abstract
Although insulin is known to be an important generator of regulatory signals during fetal growth and development, neither the immediate nor long-term effects of alcohol (ethanol) on insulin action are well understood. In the rat, fetal exposure to alcohol has been shown to be correlated with a subsequent abnormal response to a glucose load in the neonate and adult. Further, fetal hypoplasia secondary to maternal alcohol consumption is correlated with decreased placental glucose transport and with a lowering of the glucose levels in fetal tissues. However, the fetal effects of alcohol cannot be completely overcome by glucose/caloric supplementation, suggesting that factors other than glucose transport are involved. Using an embryonic chick model that negates the factors of maternal/placental metabolism and transport, the current study found that fetal alcohol exposure markedly increased insulin binding in developing tissue, but had little effect on the binding of the insulin-like growth factors. Competitive binding experiments revealed a marked increase in insulin receptor numbers, but no change in binding affinity as a result of the alcohol exposure. Basal uptake of 2-deoxyglucose by fetal tissue was lowered by alcohol exposure, but incubation with exogenous porcine insulin (1 x 10(-7) M) resulted in a significant increase in glucose uptake by the alcohol-exposed embryos. The increases in insulin binding and in insulin-dependent glucose uptake notwithstanding, exogenous insulin could not induce normal levels of ornithine decarboxylase activity in embryonic cells previously exposed to alcohol.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
