Guanosine 5′-O-(3-Thiotriphosphate) (GTPγS) Stimulation of GLUT4 Translocation is Tyrosine Kinase-dependent

Abstract: Guanosine 5-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP␥S) treatment of permeabilized adipocytes results in GLUT4 translocation similar to that elicited by insulin treatment. However, although the selective phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor, wortmannin, completely prevented insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation, it was without effect on GTP␥S-stimulated GLUT4 translocation. In addition, insulin was an effective stimulant, whereas GTP␥S was a very weak activator of the downstream Akt serine/threonine kinase. Consistent … Show more

“…The protein expression level of pol η was examined by Western blot analysis with anti-human or anti-mouse pol η antibodies from Biorbyt. The harvested SVF cells from mice adipose tissue, 3T3L1 transfectants, and MEF cells were cultured and differentiated into adipocytes (56), and then examined for SA-β-gal staining and Oil Red O staining.…”

“…These data support a model in which a proportion of the intracellular GLUT4 protein is partitioned into a specialized intracellular insulin-sensitive storage compartment that represents the primary site for insulin action. The remaining GLUT4 protein is present in various other intracellular compartments some of which are probably responsive to other stimuli such as GTPγ S or exercise/contraction in skeletal muscle and others that are constitutively undergoing recycling [59][60][61][62]. However, the mechanisms responsible for increased translocation remain unresolved.…”
