Abstract:
:Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) mediated attenuation of insulin signaling pathway is an important cause in several disorders like obesity, obesity linked diabetes mellitus. TNF-alpha actions vary depending upon concentration and time of exposure in various cells. In the present study, the effects of long-term TNF-alpha (1 ng/ml) exposure on the components of insulin signaling pathway in HepG2 and HepG2 cells overexpressing constitutively active Akt1/PKB-alpha (HepG2-CA-Akt/PKB) have been investigated. In parental HepG2 cells, TNF-alpha treatment for 24 h reduced the phosphorylation of Akt1/PKB-alpha and GSK-3beta and under these conditions cells also showed reduced insulin responsiveness in terms of Akt1/PKB-alpha and GSK-3beta phosphorylation. TNF-alpha pre-incubated HepG2-CA-Akt/PKB cells showed lower reduction in Akt1/PKB-alpha and GSK-3beta phosphorylation and insulin responsiveness after 24 h as compared to parental HepG2 cells. We report that the long-term TNF-alpha pre-incubation in both parental HepG2 and HepG2-CA-Akt/PKB-alpha cells leads to the reduction in the levels of IRS-1 without altering the levels of IRS-2. In order to understand the reason for the differential insulin resistance in both the cell types, the effect of long-term TNF-alpha treatment on the proteins upstream to Akt/PKB was investigated. TNF-alpha pre-incubation also showed reduced insulin-stimulated Tyr phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR-beta) in both the cell types, moreover hyperphosphorylation of IRS-1 at Ser 312 residue was observed in TNF-alpha pre-incubated cells. As hyperphosphorylation of IRS-1 at Ser 312 can induce its degradation, it is possible that reduced insulin responsiveness after long-term TNF-alpha pre-incubation observed in this study is due to the decrease in IRS-1 levels.
