ABSTRACT Ribosomal S6 kinases (S6Ks) have been depicted as critical effectors downstream of growth factor pathways, which play an important role in the regulation of protein synthesis by phosphorylating the ribosomal protein, S6. The goal of this study was to determine whether S6Ks regulate heart size, are critical for the induction of cardiac hypertrophy in response to a pathological or physiological stimulus, and whether S6Ks are critical downstream effectors of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)-phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. For this purpose, we generated and characterized cardiac-specific S6K1 and S6K2 transgenic mice and subjected S6K1−/−, S6K2−/−, and S6K1−/− S6K2−/− mice to a pathological stress (aortic banding) or a physiological stress (exercise training). To determine the genetic relationship between S6Ks and the IGF1-PI3K pathway, S6K transgenic and knockout mice were crossed with cardiac-specific transgenic mice overexpressing the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R) or PI3K mutants. Here we show that overexpression of S6K1 induced a modest degree of hypertrophy, whereas overexpression of S6K2 resulted in no obvious cardiac phenotype. Unexpectedly, deletion of S6K1 and S6K2 had no impact on the development of pathological, physiological, or IGF1R-PI3K-induced cardiac hypertrophy. These studies suggest that S6Ks alone are not essential for the development of cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract Adipocyte number, a determinant of adipose tissue mass, reflects the balance between the rates of proliferation/differentiation vs. apoptosis of preadipocytes. The percentage of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes undergoing cell death following serum deprivation was reduced by 10 nm insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 (from 50.0 ± 0.7% for control starved cells to 27.5 ± 3.1%). TUNEL staining confirmed the apoptotic nature of the cell death. The protective effect of IGF-1 was blocked by phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors, wortmannin, and LY294002, but was unaffected by rapamycin, PD98059, or SB203580, which inhibit mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), ERK kinase (MEK1), and p38 MAPK respectively. Exogenous PI(3,4,5)P3 (10 μm), the principal product of IGF-1-stimulated PI3K in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, had a modest survival effect on its own, reducing cell death from 47.9± 3.4% to 35.6 ± 3.5%. When added to the combination of IGF-1 and LY294002, PI(3,4,5)P3 reversed most of the inhibitory effect of LY294002 on IGF-1-dependent cell survival, protein kinase B/Akt phosphorylation, and caspase-3 activity. Taken together, these results implicate PI(3,4,5)P3 as a necessary signal for the anti-apoptotic action of IGF-1 on 3T3-L1 preadipocytes.
