ABSTRACT Protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B) attenuates insulin, PDGF, EGF, and IGF-I signaling by dephosphorylating tyrosine residues located in the tyrosine kinase domain of the corresponding receptors. More recently, PTP-1B was shown to modulate the action of cytokine signaling via the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase JAK2. Transmission of the growth hormone (GH) signal also depends on JAK2, raising the possibility that PTP-1B modulates GH action. Consistent with this hypothesis, GH increased the abundance of tyrosine-phosphorylated JAK2 associated with a catalytically inactive mutant of PTP-1B. GH-induced JAK2 phosphorylation was greater in knockout (KO) than in wild-type (WT) PTP-1B embryonic fibroblasts and resulted in increased tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT3 and STAT5, while overexpression of PTP-1B reduced the GH-mediated activation of the acid-labile subunit gene. To evaluate the in vivo relevance of these observations, mice were injected with GH under fed and fasted conditions. As expected, tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT5 occurred readily in the livers of fed WT mice and was almost completely abolished during fasting. In contrast, resistance to the action of GH was severely impaired in the livers of fasted KO mice. These results indicate that PTP-1B regulates GH signaling by reducing the extent of JAK2 phosphorylation and suggest that PTP-1B is essential for limiting the action of GH during metabolic stress such as fasting.

Methanol extract from Lippia graveolens (Mexican oregano) was studied in order to identify inhibitory bioactives for protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). Known flavone as lutein (1), and another flavone glycoside such as lutein-7-o-glucoside (2), 6-hydroxy-lutein-7-ohexoside (3) and lutein-7-o-ramnoide (4) were isolated from methanol extract of aerial parts of the Lippia graveolens. All isolates were identified based on extensive spectroscopic data analysis, including UV, IR, NMR, MS and compared with spectroscopic data previously reported. These flavones were evaluated for PTP1B inhibitory activity. Among them, compounds 1 and 3 displayed potential inhibitory activity against PTP1B with IC50 values of 7.01 ± 1.25 μg/ml and 18.4 μg/ml, respectively. In addition, compound 2 and 4 showed moderate inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 23.8 ± 6.21 and 67.8 ± 5.80 μg/ml respectively. Among the four compounds, luteolin was found to be the most potent PTP1B inhibitor compared to the positive control ursolic acid, with an IC50 value of 8.12 ± 1.06 μg/ml. These results indicate that flavonoids constituents contained in Lippia graveolens can be considered as a natural source for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), protein tyrosine phosphatase 1b (PTP1B) and dipeptidase 4 (DPP4) signaling pathways regulate eukaryotic cell proliferation and metabolism. Previous researches described different transduction mechanisms in the progression of cancer and diabetes. Methodology: We reviewed recent advances in the signal transduction pathways of mTOR, PTP1B and DPP4 regulation and determined the crosstalk and common pathway in diabetes and cancer. Results: We showed that according to numerous past studies, the proteins participate in the signaling networks for both diseases. Conclusion: There are common pathways and specific proteins involved in diabetes and cancer. This article demonstrates and explains the potential mechanisms of association and future prospects for targeting these proteins in pharmacological studies.
