Insulin receptor number and insulin responsiveness were compared in a chicken hepatoma cell line (LMH) and in normal chicken hepatocyte (cHep) cells cultured in the same conditions. LMH cells expressed two- to threefold more insulin receptors than cHep cells, without significant changes in affinity. The tyrosine kinase activity of solubilized and lectin (lentil+wheat germ agglutinin; WGA)-purified LMH receptors was higher than that of cHep receptors. The ATP hydrolytic activity previously observed in WGA-purified receptors from chicken liver membranes was also present in WGA-purified receptors from cultured cHep cells. This unidentified membrane-associated ATPase was absent from LMH membrane-solubilized material and therefore from WGA-purified LMH insulin receptors. Finally, LMH cells incorporated at least tenfold more amino isobutyric acid than cHep cells in the absence of insulin and were more responsive to insulin. The enhanced basal amino acid transport of LMH cells was most probably the consequence of their proliferative activity. The enhanced insulin responsiveness of LMH cells can be accounted for, at least in part, by one or several of the modifications presently demonstrated in LMH cells when compared with normal cultured hepatocytes: increased insulin receptor number and tyrosine kinase activity and possibly the loss of the membrane-associated ATPase.

Insulin receptor- related receptor (IRR) is a novel receptor tyrosine kinase in the insulin receptor family. Previous studies have demonstrated that the mammalian organ with the highest level of IRR mRNA is the kidney. By in situ hybridization, kidney expression of IRR transcript is only in the distal nephron and the collecting ducts; however, the specific cellular distribution of IRR is unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine IRR protein expression in the adult mouse kidney using immunohistochemical techniques. IRR was specifically present in a subset of cells in the connecting tubule, the initial collecting tubule, and the cortical collecting duct. IRR protein is detected in cells that express vacuolar H+-ATPase and carbonic anhydrase 2, but not in cells that express band 3 (anion exchanger 1). In the cortical collecting duct, the IRR positive cells are likely B intercalated cells. In the connecting tubule and the initial collecting tubule, the cells are B cells and/or non-A non-B cells. Thus, IRR is a specific marker for non-A intercalated cells in the kidney.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of insulin and insulin-like growth factor I on transepithelial Na(+) transport across porcine glandular endometrial epithelial cells grown in primary culture. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor I acutely stimulated Na(+) transport two- to threefold by increasing Na(+)-K(+) ATPase transport activity and basolateral membrane K(+) conductance without increasing the apical membrane amiloride-sensitive Na(+) conductance. Long-term exposure to insulin for 4 d resulted in enhanced Na(+) absorption with a further increase in Na(+)-K(+) ATPase transport activity and an increase in apical membrane amiloride-sensitive Na(+) conductance. The effect of insulin on the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase was the result of an increase in V(max) for extracellular K(+) and intracellular Na(+), and an increase in affinity of the pump for Na(+). Immunohistochemical localization along with Western blot analysis of cultured porcine endometrial epithelial cells revealed the presence of alpha-1 and alpha-2 isoforms, but not the alpha-3 isoform of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase, which did not change in the presence of insulin. Insulin-stimulated Na(+) transport was inhibited by hydroxy-2-naphthalenylmethylphosphonic acid tris-acetoxymethyl ester [HNMPA-(AM)(3)], a specific inhibitor of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity, suggesting that the regulation of Na(+) transport by insulin involves receptor autophosphorylation. Pretreatment with wortmannin, a specific inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase as well as okadaic acid and calyculin A, inhibitors of protein phosphatase activity, also blocked the insulin-stimulated increase in short circuit and pump currents, suggesting that activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and subsequent stimulation of a protein phosphatase mediates the action of insulin on Na(+)-K(+) ATPase activation.

The insulin receptor signaling pathway is present in beta-cells and is believed to be important in beta-cell function. We show here that insulin directly regulates beta-cell function in isolated rodent islets. Long-term insulin treatment caused a sustained increase in [Ca(2+)](i) and enhanced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in rat islets, but failed to increase insulin content. Chronic activation of insulin receptor signaling by IRS-1 overexpression in the beta-cell inhibited gene expression of SERCA3, an endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. Insulin gene transcription was stimulated by insulin receptor signaling and insulin mimetic compound (L-783 281) in a glucose- and Grb2-dependent manner. Thus, beta-cell SERCA3 is a target for insulin regulation, which implies that beta-cell Ca(2+) homeostasis is regulated in an autocrine feedback loop by insulin. This study identifies a novel regulatory pathway of insulin secretion at the molecular level with two main components: (1) regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis via SERCA3 and (2) regulation of insulin gene expression.

Abnormalities in intracellular pH regulation have been proposed to be important in type 2 diabetes and the associated cardiomyopathy and hypertension. We have therefore investigated the dependence of insulin-stimulated glucose transport on cytosolic pH in cardiomyocytes. Insulin treatment of cardiomyocytes resulted in a marked alkalinization of the cytoplasm as measured using carboxy-semi-napthorhodofluor-1. The alkalinizing effect of insulin was blocked by treatment with either cariporide (which inhibits the Na+/H+ exchanger) or by bafilomycin A1 (which inhibits H+-ATPase activity). After treatments with cariporide or bafilomycin A1, insulin stimulation of insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrate-1 phosphorylation and Akt activity were normal. In contrast, glucose transport activity and the levels of functional GLUT4 at the plasma membrane (detected using an exofacial photolabel) were reduced by approximately 50%. Immunocytochemical analysis revealed that insulin treatment caused a translocation of the GLUT4 from perinuclear structures and increased its co-localization with cell surface syntaxin 4. However, neither cariporide nor bafilomycin A1 treatment reduced the translocation of immunodetectable GLUT4 to the sarcolemma region of the cell. It is therefore hypothesized that insulin-stimulated cytosol alkalinization facilitates the final stages of translocation and incorporation of fully functional GLUT4 at the surface-limiting membrane.

The field of migraine genetics has seen an explosion of information over the last year. In a recent breakthrough, missense mutations in a chromosome 1q23 gene, ATP1A2, encoding a Na+, K+-ATPase, have been identified in four distinct pedigrees with a rare form of familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM). ATP1A2 is expressed in the brain, like the voltage gated calcium channel gene, CACNA1A, previously identified as the first hemiplegic migraine gene (FHM1). The shared hemiplegic migraine phenotype of mutations in ATP1A2 and CACNA1A raises the possibility that they coordinately regulate ion homeostasis that determines susceptibility to the initiation of both migraine aura and the pain phase of migraine. For the more common and genetically complex forms of migraine, genome-wide screens have identified several new loci on 4q24, 6p12.2-21.1, 11q24, and 14q21.2-q22.3, suggesting additional migraine genes in these regions. In addition, a recent large case-control association study has linked single nucleotide polymorphisms in the insulin receptor/INSR gene with migraine. However, these polymorphisms do not result in detectable changes in receptor function. The continuing genetic identification of key proteins involved in migraine will refine our understanding of this common and sometimes debilitating disorder, which can strike during the most productive years of a person's life. Given the co-morbidity of migraine with depression and bipolar disorder, our knowledge of the causes of migraine may also contribute to our understanding of these disorders.

We have investigated the expression and regulation of the Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC) by insulin and hyperosmotic stress in L6 rat skeletal muscle cells. NKCC was identified by immunoblotting as a 170 kDa protein in L6 myotubes and mediated 54% of K(+) ((86)Rb(+)) influx based on the sensitivity of ion transport to bumetanide, a NKCC inhibitor. The residual (86)Rb(+) influx occurred via the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and other transporters not sensitive to bumetanide or ouabain. NKCC-mediated (86)Rb(+) influx was enhanced significantly ( approximately 1.6-fold) by acute cell exposure to insulin, but was inhibited significantly by tyrosine kinase inhibitors, wortmannin and rapamycin, consistent with a role for the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, phosphoinositide 3 (PI3)-kinase and mTOR, respectively, in cotransporter activation. In contrast, the hormonal activation of NKCC was unaffected by inhibition of the classical Erk-signalling pathway. Subjecting L6 myotubes to an acute hyperosmotic challenge (420 mosmol l(-1)) led to a 40% reduction in cell volume and was accompanied by a rapid stimulation of NKCC activity ( approximately 2-fold). Intracellular volume recovered to normal levels within 60 min, but this regulatory volume increase (RVI) was prevented if bumetanide was present. Unlike insulin, activation of NKCC by hyperosmolarity did not involve PI3-kinase but was suppressed by inhibition of tyrosine kinases and the Erk pathway. While inhibition of tyrosine kinases, using genistein, led to a complete loss in NKCC activation in response to hyperosmotic stress, immunoprecipitation of NKCC revealed that the cotransporter was not regulated directly by tyrosine phosphorylation. Simultaneous exposure of L6 myotubes to insulin and hyperosmotic stress led to an additive increase in NKCC-mediated (86)Rb(+) influx, of which, only the insulin-stimulated component was wortmannin-sensitive. Our findings indicate that L6 myotubes express a functional NKCC that is rapidly activated in response to insulin and hyperosmotic shock by distinct intracellular signalling pathways. Furthermore, activation of NKCC in response to hyperosmotic-induced cell shrinkage represents a critical component of the RVI mechanism that allows L6 muscle cells to volume regulate.

Migraine is a common form of the chronic headache syndromes. Although the pathogenesis of migraine still remains enigmatic, there have been remarkable progress in headache research. Point mutations of P/Q-type Ca2+ channel alpha 1 subunit (CACNA1A) gene have been identified in familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM), which linked to chromosome 19 (FHM-1, OMIM 141500). Na-K ATPase alpha2 gene has been identified as the causative gene for FHM linked to 1q21-23 (FHM-2, OMIM 602481). Common forms of migraine (i.e. migraine with and without aura) seems to be caused from multifactorial genetic factors and environmental factors. An association study of allelic variation at Codon 23 (Cys or Ser) of 5HT2C-R gene in Japanese samples revealed that the Ser allele frequency in migraine with aura was significantly higher than that in the non-headache controls. However, negative association of this polymorphism have been reported in Caucasian migrainures. The C677T allelic variation of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) are focused on in association with the coronary heart diseases and the cerebrovascular diseases. The T allelic frequency in migraine sufferers was significantly higher than that in controls. The C677T mutation of MTHFR is one of the genetic risk factors for migraine. These observations are confirmed in Turkish, Australian and Spanish samples. Positive associations of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene, endotheline receptor-A (ET-A) gene, and insulin receptor gene have been reported. Using the genomewide screen technology, significant linkage between the migraine with aura and a marker on 4q24 has been reported in Finnish families. The genome wide screen analysis will be one of the powerful strategies on exploring migraine gene. Genetic study of migraine headache is a promised and fruitful field and will provide deep understanding to migraine headache. Discovery of new responsible or susceptible genes to migraine will also open an avenue to develop new therapeutic strategy of migraine.

Of the three mammalian members belonging to the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) family, SERCA2 is evolutionary the oldest and shows the most wide tissue-expression pattern. Two major SERCA2 splice variants are well-characterized: the muscle-specific isoform SERCA2a and the housekeeping isoform SERCA2b. Recently, several interacting proteins and post-translational modifications of SERCA2 were identified which may modulate the activity of the Ca2+ pump. This review aims to give an overview of the vast literature concerning the cell biological implications of the SERCA2 isoform diversity and the factors regulating SERCA2. Proteins reported to interact with SERCA2 from the cytosolic domain involve the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2, the insulin receptor substrates IRS1/2, the EF-hand Ca2+-binding protein S100A1 and acylphosphatase. We will focus on the very particular position of SERCA2 as an enzyme functioning in a thin, highly fluid, leaky and cholesterol-poor membrane. Possible differential interactions of SERCA2b and SERCA2a with calreticulin, calnexin and ERp57, which could occur within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum will be discussed. Reported post-translational modifications possibly affecting pump activity involve N-glycosylation, glutathionylation and Ca2+/calmodulin kinase II-dependent phosphorylation. Finally, the pronounced vulnerability to oxidative damage of SERCA2 appears to be pivotal in the etiology of various pathologies.

Insulin has been shown to have antinatriuretic actions in humans and animal models. Moreover, endogenous hyperinsulinemia and insulin infusion have been correlated to increased blood pressure in some models. In this review, we present the current state of understanding with regard to the regulation of the major renal sodium transporters by insulin in the kidney. Several groups, using primarily cell culture, have demonstrated that insulin can directly increase activity of the epithelial sodium channel, the sodium-phosphate cotransporter, the sodium-hydrogen exchanger type III, and Na-K-ATPase. We and others have demonstrated alterations in the expression at the protein level of many of these same proteins with insulin infusion or in hyperinsulinemic models. We also discuss how this regulation is perturbed in type I and type II diabetes mellitus. Finally, we discuss a potential role for regulation of insulin receptor signaling in the kidney in contributing to sodium balance and blood pressure.
