Troglitazone treatment increases protein kinase B phosphorylation in skeletal muscle of normoglycemic subjects at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes.

Abstract：

:We investigated whether the effect of troglitazone on glucose disposal is associated with altered insulin signaling. Nondiabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetic patients (age 30 +/- 2 years, BMI 30 +/- 1 kg/m(2); n = 20) were randomized in a double-blind manner to 3 months of troglitazone (200 mg/day) or placebo treatment. Before and after treatment, 3-h euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic glucose clamps (40 mU. m(-2). min(-1)) were performed, and muscle biopsies were obtained immediately before and after the clamps. In the biopsies, insulin receptor kinase (IRK) activity, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1-associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity, Ser(473) and Thr(308) phosphorylation of protein kinase B (PKB), and protein expression of IRS-1, IRS-2, phosphoinositol-dependent kinase-1 (PDK-1), PKB, and GLUT-4 were determined. After troglitazone treatment, insulin-stimulated glucose disposal was increased compared with pretreatment and placebo (279 +/- 37 vs. 211 +/- 26 and 200 +/- 25 mg. m(-2). min(-1); both P < 0.05). IRK and PI3K activities were not altered by troglitazone, but PKB Ser(473) phosphorylation was enhanced compared with pretreatment and placebo at the clamp insulin level (138 +/- 36 vs. 77 +/- 16 and 55 +/- 13 internal standard units; both P < 0.05) and with pretreatment at the basal level (31 +/- 9 vs. 14 +/- 4 internal standard units; P < 0.05). PKB Thr(308) phosphorylation also tended to be higher, but this was not statistically significant. Troglitazone did not alter insulin receptor number or IRS-1, IRS-2, PKB, PDK-1, or GLUT-4 protein expression. We conclude that increased PKB phosphorylation may contribute to the insulin-sensitizing effects of thiazolidinediones in human skeletal muscle.
