Overexpression of the dual-specificity phosphatase MKP-4/DUSP-9 protects against stress-induced insulin resistance

Abstract: Insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes and obesity, is associated with increased activity of MAP and stress-activated protein (SAP) kinases, which results in decreased insulin signaling. Our goal was to investigate the role of MAP kinase phosphatase-4 (MKP-4) in modulating this process. We found that MKP-4 expression is upregulated during adipocyte and myocyte differentiation in vitro and up-regulated during fasting in white adipose tissue in vivo. Overexpression of MKP-4 in 3T3-L1 cells inhibited E… Show more

“…In contrast to CENTD2, where there is no reported biological data to support an effect on beta cell function, DUSP9 (which codes for mitogen-activated dual specificity protein kinase phosphastase-4) has been identified as a gene involved in insulin signalling and in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance [8][9][10].…”

“…However, those experiments demonstrated that p38 MAPK positively, rather than negatively, regulated PPAR␥ mRNA in the liver of high fat diet-fed mice (7). Moreover, overexpression of MKP-4 in the liver, which inhibits JNK and ERK1/2, was shown to prevent hepatic steatosis (40). Because ERK1/2 and JNK inhibit PPAR␥ activity by phosphorylation on Ser 112 (22,32,33,41) we speculated that MKP-1 might be exerting its effects on PPAR␥ activity by negatively regulating MAPK-dependent phosphorylation at this site.…”

“…In support of our proposed mechanism in which AICAR inhibits the phosphorylation of ERK and subsequently the serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 at 636/639 and 307, it has been proposed that DUSP6/ MKP-3, which has a high sequence homology to DUSP9/ MKP-4, specifically within its catalytic domain, can form a complex with ERK, leading to enhanced DUSP6/ MKP-3 activity (29). Moreover, it has been reported that overexpression of an adenovirus encoding DUSP9/ MKP-4 protects against stress-induced insulin resistance in 3T3L1 adipocytes (30). On the other hand, we demonstrated that the PP2A inhibitor okadaic acid did not restore ERK phosphorylation levels suppressed by AICAR stimulation, indicating that AICAR does not increase PP2A activity.…”
