Purpose While growth hormone (GH) and the insulin-like growth factor type I (IGF-I) are known to exert synergistic actions on muscle anabolism, the consequences of prolonged GH deficiency (GHD) on muscle function have not been well defined. We have previously described a large cohort of subjects with isolated GHD (IGHD) caused by a mutation in the GH-releasing hormone receptor gene, with low serum...
In the present study, we investigated the protein levels and phosphorylation status of the insulin receptor and insulin receptor substrates (IRS-1, IRS-2, and IRS-3) as well as their association with PI(3)-kinase in the rat adipose tissue of two models of insulin resistance: dexamethasone treatment and aging. AKT and atypical PKC phosphorylation detection were also performed. Both models showed decreased...
Insulin stimulates tyrosine kinase activity of its receptor, resulting in phosphorylation of its cytosolic substrate, insulin receptor substrate-1, which, in turn, associates with proteins containing SH2 domains, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (Pl 3-kinase) and the phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP2. The regulation of these associations in situations of altered insulin receptor substrate-1...
Shc is a novel type of tyrosine-phosphorylated protein activated in response to a wide variety of polypeptide ligands. In this study, we used immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting to examine the effect of insulin on Shc tyrosine phosphorylation and Shc/GRB2 association in insulin-sensitive tissues of the intact rat. Following an infusion of insulin, Shc was tyrosine-phosphorylated in the liver, skeletal...
