Abstract
This study investigated potential mechanism of dibutyryl-cAMP (db-cAMP) on porcine fat deposition. (1) Exp.1, 72 finishing pigs were allotted to 3 treatments (0, 10 or 20 mg/kg dbcAMP) with 6 replicates. dbcAMP increased the hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) activity and expression of β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) and growth hormone receptor (GHR), but decreased expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPAR-γ2) and adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) in back fat. dbcAMP upregulated expression of β-AR, GHR, PPAR-γ2 and A-FABP, but decreased insulin receptor (INSR) expression in abdominal fat. Dietary dbcAMP increased HSL activity and expression of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), but decreased fatty acid synthase (FAS) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activities, and expression of INSR, cAMP-response element-binding protein (C/EBP-α) and A-FABP in perirenal fat. (2) Exp. 2, dbcAMP suppressed the proliferation and differentiation of porcine preadipocytes in a time- and dose-dependent manner, which might be associated with increased activities of cAMP and protein kinase A (PKA), and expression of GPCR, β-AR, GHR and CREB via inhibiting C/EBP-α and PPAR-γ2 expression. Collectively, dbcAMP treatment may reduce fat deposition by regulating gene expression related to adipocyte differentiation and fat metabolism partially via cAMP-PKA pathway.

Abstract
AIMS Insulin (Ins) resistance (IRES) associates to increased cardiovascular risk as observed in metabolic syndrome. Chronic stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors (betaAR) due to exaggerated sympathetic nervous system activity is involved in the pathogenesis of IRES. The cellular levels of G protein coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) increase during chronic betaAR stimulation, leading to betaAR desensitization. We tested the hypothesis that GRK2 plays a role in betaAR-induced IRES. METHODS AND RESULTS We evaluated Ins-induced glucose uptake and signalling responses in vitro in cell overexpressing the beta(2)AR, the GRK2, or the catalytically dead mutant GRK2-DN. In a model of increased adrenergic activity, IRES and elevated cellular GRK2 levels, the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) we performed the intravenous glucose tolerance test load. To inhibit GRK2, we synthesized a peptide based on the catalytical sequence of GRK2 conjugated with the antennapedia internalization sequence (Ant-124). Ins in human kidney embryonic (HEK-293) cells causes rapid accumulation of GRK2, tyrosine phosphorylation of Ins receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and induces glucose uptake. In the same cell type, transgenic beta(2)AR overexpression causes GRK2 accumulation associated with significant deficit of IRS1 activation and glucose uptake by Ins. Similarly, transgenic GRK2 overexpression prevents Ins-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS1 and glucose uptake, whereas GRK2-DN ameliorates glucose extraction. By immunoprecipitation, GRK2 binds IRS1 but not the Ins receptor in an Ins-dependent fashion, which is lost in HEK-GRK2 cells. Ant-124 improves Ins-induced glucose uptake in HEK-293 and HEK-GRK2 cells, but does not prevent GRK2/IRS1 interaction. In SHR, Ant-124 infusion for 30 days ameliorates IRES and IRS1 tyrosine phosphorylation. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that GRK2 mediates adrenergic IRES and that inhibition of GRK2 activity leads to increased Ins sensitivity both in cells and in animal model of IRES.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia is a risk marker of morbidity and mortality in acute critical illness, and insulin therapy seems to be beneficial in this patient group. Whether this is true for a population of sepsis patients, as such, has not been investigated in clinical trials, but evidence from in vitro studies and experimental sepsis suggests that this may be the case. The endocrinology of septic patients is characterized by a shift in the balance between insulin and its counter-regulatory hormones favoring the latter. This leads to prominent metabolic derangements composed of high release and low use of glucose, amino acids, and free fatty acids (FFA), resulting in increased blood levels of these substrates. Circulating, proinflammatory mediators further enhance this state of global catabolism. Increased levels of glucose and FFA have distinct effects on inflammatory signaling leading to additional release of proinflammatory mediators and endothelial and neutrophil dysfunction. Insulin has the inherent capability to counteract the metabolic changes observed in septic patients. Concomitantly, insulin therapy may act as a modulator of inflammatory pathways inhibiting the unspecific, inflammatory activation caused by metabolic substrates. Given these properties, insulin could conceivably be serving a dual purpose for the benefit of septic patients.

Abstract
The activity of adenosine kinase (AK) was significantly impaired in splenocytes isolated from diabetic rats. Administration of insulin to diabetic animals restored AK activity, protein, and mRNA levels in diabetic splenocytes. Experiments performed on cultured rat lymphocytes demonstrated that insulin did not change the stability of AK mRNA. Insulin induced AK gene expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Maximal increases in AK mRNA (3.9-fold) and activity level (3.7-fold) were observed at the fourth and fifth hours of cell incubation with 10 nM insulin, respectively. The insulin effect on AK expression was not influenced by dibutyryl cAMP (dcAMP). On the other hand dcAMP weakly increased (1.7-fold) basal expression of AK. Exposure of rat lymphocytes to wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), or rapamycin, an inhibitor of mTOR, did not affect the ability of insulin to stimulate expression of AK. Prior treatment of the cells with 10 microM PD98059, an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase (MEK) completely blocked insulin-stimulated expression of AK gene. Insulin produced a significant transient increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK1/2, and PD98059 inhibited this phosphorylation. Furthermore exposure of cells to insulin has resulted in transient phosphorylation of Elk-1 on Ser-383 and sustained elevation of c-Jun and c-Fos protein. The maximal phosphorylation of Elk-1 was observed at 15 min, and was blocked by PD98059. We concluded that insulin stimulates AK gene expression through a series of events occurring sequentially. This includes activation of the MAPK cascade and subsequent phosphorylation of Elk-1 followed by increased expression of c-fos and c-jun genes.

Abstract
The stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G(s)) is required for hormone-stimulated cAMP generation. Gnas, the gene encoding the G(s) alpha-subunit, is imprinted, and targeted disruption of this gene in mice leads to distinct phenotypes in heterozygotes depending on whether the maternal (m-/+) or paternal (+/p-) allele is mutated. Notably, m-/+ mice become obese, whereas +/p- mice are thinner than normal. In this study we show that despite these opposite changes in energy metabolism, both m-/+ and +/p- mice have greater sensitivity to insulin, with low to normal fasting glucose levels, low fasting insulin levels, improved glucose tolerance, and exaggerated hypoglycemic response to administered insulin. The combination of increased insulin sensitivity with obesity in m-/+ mice is unusual, because obesity is typically associated with insulin resistance. In skeletal muscles isolated from both m-/+ and +/p- mice, the basal rate of 2-deoxyglucose uptake was normal, whereas the rate of 2-deoxyglucose uptake in response to maximal insulin stimulation was significantly increased. The similar changes in muscle sensitivity to insulin in m-/+ and +/p- mice may reflect the fact that muscle G(s)alpha expression is reduced by approximately 50% in both groups of mice. GLUT4 expression is unaffected in muscles from +/p- mice. Increased responsiveness to insulin is therefore the result of altered insulin signaling and/or GLUT4 translocation. This is the first direct demonstration in a genetically altered in vivo model that G(s)-coupled pathways negatively regulate insulin signaling.

Abstract
1. Phosphodiesterase (PDE) IV has been localized at cardiomyocytes and the coronary vasculature and modulates cAMP, but the effect of PDE IV on myocardial glucose uptake has not been demonstrated. 2. Glucose uptake in rat isolated hearts treated with the PDE IV inhibitor rolipram was measured by [31P] nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. 3. Under non-stimulating conditions, glucose uptake was not significantly different between control and rolipram (1 micromol/L)-treated rat hearts, whereas enhanced uptake in insulin-stimulated conditions was significantly attenuated by rolipram. 4. Phosphodiesterase IV inhibitor negatively affects insulin-dependent myocardial glucose uptake.

Abstract
UNLABELLED It is well-established that high levels of cAMP or glucose can produce insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to characterize the interaction between these agents and insulin with respect to adipose tissue/muscle glucose transporter isoform (glucose transporter 4, GLUT4) gene regulation in cultured 3T3-F442A adipocytes and to further elucidate the GLUT4-related mechanisms in insulin resistance. Insulin (10(4) microU/ml) treatment for 16 h clearly increased GLUT4 mRNA level in cells cultured in medium containing 5.6 mM glucose but not in cells cultured in medium with high glucose (25 mM). 8-Bromo-cAMP (1 or 4 mM) or N(6)-monobutyryl cAMP, a hydrolyzable and a non-hydrolyzable cAMP analog, respectively, markedly decreased the GLUT4 mRNA level irrespective of glucose concentrations. In addition, these cAMP analogs also inhibited the upregulating effect of insulin on GLUT4 mRNA level. Interestingly, the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate (1-50 microM) clearly increased GLUT4 mRNA level in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, cAMP-induced inhibition of the insulin effect was also prevented by vanadate. In parallel to the effects on GLUT4 gene expression, both insulin, vanadate and cAMP produced similar changes in cellular GLUT4 protein content and cAMP impaired the effect of insulin to stimulate (14)C-deoxyglucose uptake. In contrast, insulin, vanadate or cAMP did not alter insulin receptor (IR) mRNA or the cellular content of IR protein. IN CONCLUSION (1) Both insulin and vanadate elicit a stimulating effect on GLUT4 gene expression in 3T3-F442A cells, but a prerequisite is that the surrounding glucose concentration is low. (2) Cyclic AMP impairs the insulin effect on GLUT4 gene expression, but this is prevented by vanadate, probably by enhancing the tyrosine phosphorylation of signalling peptides and/or transcription factors. (3) IR gene and protein expression is not altered by insulin, vanadate or cAMP in this cell type. (4) The changes in GLUT4 gene expression produced by cAMP or vanadate are accompanied by similar alterations in GLUT4 protein expression and glucose uptake, suggesting a role of GLUT4 gene expression for the long-term regulation of cellular insulin action on glucose transport.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to elucidate events in the plasma membrane (PM) associated with the previously described effect of insulin to rapidly enhance the number of cell surface insulin binding sites in rat adipocytes. [125I]insulin was cross-linked to cell surface insulin receptors of intact cells that had been preincubated with or without insulin. Subsequently prepared PM displayed a approximately 3-fold increase in bound [125I]insulin when cells had been pretreated with 6 nM insulin for 20 min compared to membranes from control cells, and SDS-PAGE with autoradiography showed that this occurred at the insulin receptor alpha-subunit. The magnitude of the effect was similar to that found for insulin binding to intact cells that had been preincubated with insulin. In contrast, the insulin binding capacity in the PM was not affected by prior treatment of cells with insulin when assessed with the addition of [125I]insulin directly to solubilized PM; this suggests an unchanged total number of PM receptors. Thus, the enhancement of cell surface insulin binding capacity produced by insulin is not due to the translocation of receptors, but instead appears to be confined to receptors already present in the PM. The addition of phospholipase C (from Clostridium perfringens), which cleaves PM phospholipids, mimicked the effect of insulin to enhance cell surface binding in adipocytes, and this suggests a pool of cryptic PM receptors. Both the nonmetabolizable cAMP analog N6-monobutyryl cAMP (N6-mbcAMP) and the serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid abolished the effect of concomitant insulin treatment to increase binding capacity. In contrast, the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate increased insulin binding even in the presence of okadaic acid or N6-mbcAMP. The effect of N6-mbcAMP to impair cell surface insulin binding was also evident in the presence of a peptide derived from the major histocompatibility complex type I that effectively impairs receptor internalization, but the amount of PM receptors assessed by immunoblot was unaltered. Taken together, the data suggest that insulin exposure leads to the uncovering of cryptic receptors associated with the PM. It is also suggested that tyrosine phosphorylation promotes this process, whereas enhanced serine phosphorylation, e.g. produced by cAMP, impairs the functional insertion of the receptors, rendering them unable to bind insulin.

Abstract
To further elucidate the mechanisms for short-term regulation of the receptor for insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II), we investigated effects of insulin, cAMP and phosphatase inhibitors on cell surface 125I-IGF-II binding in rat adipocytes. Preincubation with the serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid (OA, 1 microM) or the non-hydrolysable cAMP analogue N6-mbcAMP (4 mM) markedly impaired insulin-stimulated 125I-IGF-II binding. Furthermore, addition of OA enhanced the inhibitory effect exerted by N6-mbcAMP. N6-mbcAMP also induced an insensitivity to insulin which was normalized by concomitant addition of the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate (0.5 mM). In contrast, vanadate did not affect the impairment in maximal insulin-stimulated 125I-IGF-II binding produced by either OA or N6-mbcAMP. Phospholipase C (PLC), which cleaves phospholipids at the cell surface, markedly enhanced cell surface 125I-IGF-II binding in a concentration-dependent manner. Scatchard analysis demonstrated that the effect of PLC was due to an increased number of binding sites suggesting that "cryptic' IGF-II receptors are associated with the plasma membrane (PM). PLC (5 U/ml) also reversed the N6-mbcAMP-induced decrease of 125I-IGF-II binding at a low insulin concentration (10 microU/ml). Taken together, these data indicate that cAMP, similar to its effects on the glucose transporter GLUT 4 and the insulin receptor, may increase the proportion of functionally cryptic IGF-II receptors in the PM through mechanisms involving serine phosphorylation, possibly of a docking or coupling protein. Tyrosine phosphorylation appears to exert an opposite effect promoting the full cell surface expression of receptors.

Abstract
The effect of a beta-adrenergic agonist (isoproterenol) on the tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin receptor was studied in intact adipocytes. Isoproterenol treatment rapidly (5 min) inhibited the insulin-induced autophosphorylation of the insulin receptor on tyrosine residues in intact adipocytes. The effect of insulin on the phosphorylation of cellular proteins on tyrosine residues was also inhibited by isoproterenol. In order to understand the mechanism responsible for this inhibition, two-dimensional phosphopeptide mapping of the insulin receptor was performed. The pattern of phosphorylation of the insulin receptor in freshly isolated adipocytes showed marked differences from that previously observed in cultured cells overexpressing insulin receptors. These differences include a larger proportion of receptors being phosphorylated on the three tyrosines from the kinase domain and no apparent phosphorylation of the two tyrosines close to the C-terminus after insulin stimulation. Isoproterenol markedly inhibited the effect of insulin on the phosphorylation of the three tyrosines from the kinase domain. However, this inhibition was not associated with an increase in the phosphorylation of serine/threonine peptides. Thus, this direct analysis of insulin receptor phosphorylation sites in intact adipocytes does no support the idea that beta-adrenegic agents inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor through a serine/threonine phosphorylation-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
To assess the role of the cGMP-inhibitable phosphodiesterase (cGI-PDE) in the action of insulin on glucose transport, adipocytes from young, lean rats were preincubated for 20 min at 37 degrees C with and without OPC 3911, a specific inhibitor of cGI-PDE, and 3-O-methylglucose uptake was measured. Insulin-stimulated glucose transport was impaired by OPC 3911 (approximately 15%) and this impairment became more pronounced in the presence of the degradable cAMP-analogue 8-bromo-cAMP (approximately 45%). This analogue alone did not significantly decrease glucose transport. Furthermore, insulin sensitivity was impaired by the combination of OPC 3911 and 8-bromo-cAMP. Maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport in adipocytes from aging, obese rats was affected similarly by OPC 3911 and 8-bromo-cAMP, suggesting that cGI-PDE activity is not markedly altered in this insulin-resistant state. In conclusion, cGI-PDE exerts a modulating effect on the stimulatory action of insulin on glucose transport. This effect is particularly pronounced when the cellular cAMP levels are elevated.
