Increased phosphorylation of Akt substrate of 160 kDa (AS160) is essential to trigger the full increase in insulin-stimulated glucose transport in skeletal muscle. The primary aim of this study was to characterize the time course for reversal of insulin-stimulated AS160 phosphorylation in rat skeletal muscle after insulin removal. The time courses for reversal of insulin effects both upstream (Akt phosphorylation) and downstream (glucose uptake) of AS160 were also determined. Epitrochlearis muscles were incubated in vitro using three protocols which differed with regard to insulin exposure: No Insulin (never exposed to insulin), Transient Insulin (30 min with 1.8 nmol/l insulin, then incubation without insulin for 10, 20 or 40 min), or Sustained Insulin (continuously incubated with 1.8 nmol/l insulin). After removal of muscles from insulin, Akt and AS160 phosphorylation reversed rapidly, each with a half-time of <10 min and essentially full reversal by 20 min. Glucose uptake reversed more slowly (half time between 10 and 20 min with essentially full reversal by 40 min). Removal of muscles from insulin resulted in a rapid reversal of the increase in AS160 phosphorylation which preceded the reversal of the increase in glucose uptake, consistent with AS160 phosphorylation being essential for maintenance of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake.

The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been hypothesized to mediate contraction and 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide 1-β-d-ribonucleoside (AICAR)-induced increases in glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. The purpose of the current study was to determine whether treadmill exercise and isolated muscle contractions in rat skeletal muscle increase the activity of the AMPKα1 and AMPKα2 catalytic subunits in a dose-dependent manner and to evaluate the effects of the putative AMPK inhibitors adenine 9-β-d-arabinofuranoside (ara-A), 8-bromo-AMP, and iodotubercidin on AMPK activity and 3- O-methyl-d-glucose (3-MG) uptake. There were dose-dependent increases in AMPKα2 activity and 3-MG uptake in rat epitrochlearis muscles with treadmill running exercise but no effect of exercise on AMPKα1 activity. Tetanic contractions of isolated epitrochlearis muscles in vitro significantly increased the activity of both AMPK isoforms in a dose-dependent manner and at a similar rate compared with increases in 3-MG uptake. In isolated muscles, the putative AMPK inhibitors ara-A, 8-bromo-AMP, and iodotubercidin fully inhibited AICAR-stimulated AMPKα2 activity and 3-MG uptake but had little effect on AMPKα1 activity. In contrast, these compounds had absent or minimal effects on contraction-stimulated AMPKα1 and -α2 activity and 3-MG uptake. Although the AMPKα1 and -α2 isoforms are activated during tetanic muscle contractions in vitro, in fast-glycolytic fibers, the activation of AMPKα2-containing complexes may be more important in regulating exercise-mediated skeletal muscle metabolism in vivo. Development of new compounds will be required to study contraction regulation of AMPK by pharmacological inhibition.

There are reports that ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) plays a role in insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation, although this is not the case in some cell types. Because Akt plays a key role in insulin signaling, which leads to glucose transport in skeletal muscle, the predominant tissue in insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, we examined whether insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation and (or) glucose transport would be decreased in skeletal muscle of mice lacking functional ATM, compared with muscle from wild-type mice. We found that in vitro insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation was normal in soleus muscle from mice with 1 nonfunctional allele of ATM (ATM+/−) and from mice with 2 nonfunctional alleles (ATM−/−). However, insulin did not stimulate glucose transport or the phosphorylation of AS160 in ATM−/− soleus. ATM protein level was markedly higher in wild-type extensor digitorum longus (EDL) than in wild-type soleus. In EDL from ATM−/− mice, insulin did not stimulate glucose transport. However, in contrast to findings for soleus, insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation was blunted in ATM−/− EDL, concomitant with a tendency for insulin-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity to be decreased. Together, the findings suggest that ATM plays a role in insulin-stimulated glucose transport at the level of AS160 in muscle comprised of slow and fast oxidative-glycolytic fibers (soleus) and at the level of Akt in muscle containing fast glycolytic fibers (EDL).

The effect of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF II) on the rates of lactate formation, glycogen synthesis and glucose transport in the presence of a range of concentrations of insulin were investigated using an isolated preparation of rat skeletal muscle. IGF II, at a concentration of 65 ng/ml, caused a small but significant increase in the rates of these processes at a basal physiological insulin concentration (10 muunits/ml), but was without effect in the presence of 1, 100, 1000 or 10,000 muunits of insulin/ml. Hence IGF II increased the insulin sensitivity of this tissue. This effect was removed if the incubation medium was supplemented with an equimolar concentration of IGF binding protein 1 (BP1). It is suggested that changes in the concentration of IGF II and/or BP1 may regulate glucose uptake and metabolism in skeletal muscle and have physiological significance in the control of blood glucose level.

This study was designed to examine the effect of insulin stimulation on glucose transport in rat skeletal muscle. Sarcolemmal vesicles (SL) were isolated from the gastrocnemius-plantaris and quadriceps muscles from insulin-stimulated and control groups. The insulin-stimulated group received an intravenous insulin injection (1 U/kg) 10 min before isolation. The early time course of specific D-glucose transport was linear through 2 s. Michaelis-Menten kinetics at 1.5 s indicated that the Vmax for glucose transport was increased after insulin stimulation compared with controls (4,424 +/- 668 vs. 1,366 +/- 124 pmol.mg protein -1.s-1), whereas the Km remained unchanged (19.4 +/- 0.6 vs. 21.6 +/- 3.1 mM). Scatchard plots for the D-glucose-inhibitable class of cytochalasin B binding sites indicated that insulin stimulation increased the number of binding sites in the SL vesicles (9.3 +/- 0.6 vs. 5.5 +/- 0.3 pmol/mg protein) without altering the Kd (48 +/- 3 vs. 46 +/- 3 nM). That the increase in Vmax was greater than the increase in cytochalasin B binding sites indicates that insulin stimulation caused an increase in the turnover rate of existing transport molecules as well as an increase in the total number of SL glucose transport molecules.

Recent reports have shown that immediately after an acute bout of exercise the glucose transport system of rat skeletal muscle plasma membranes is characterized by an increase in both glucose transporter number and intrinsic activity. To determine the duration of the exercise response we examined the time course of these changes after completion of a single bout of exercise. Male rats were exercised on a treadmill for 1 h (20 m/min, 10% grade) or allowed to remain sedentary. Rats were killed either immediately or 0.5 or 2 h after exercise, and red gastrocnemius muscle was used for the preparation of plasma membranes. Plasma membrane glucose transporter number was elevated 1.8- and 1.6-fold immediately and 30 min after exercise, although facilitated D-glucose transport in plasma membrane vesicles was elevated 4- and 1.8-fold immediately and 30 min after exercise, respectively. By 2 h after exercise both glucose transporter number and transport activity had returned to nonexercised control values. Additional experiments measuring glucose uptake in perfused hindquarter muscle produced similar results. We conclude that the reversal of the increase in glucose uptake by hindquarter skeletal muscle after exercise is correlated with a reversal of the increase in the glucose transporter number and activity in the plasma membrane. The time course of the transport-to-transporter ratio suggests that the intrinsic activity response reverses more rapidly than that involving transporter number.

Exercise training increases the concentration of GLUT-4 protein in skeletal muscle that is associated with an increase in maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport. The purpose of this study was to determine whether exercise training results in a long-lasting increase in insulin-stimulated glucose transport in rat skeletal muscle. Glucose uptake and skeletal muscle 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (3-MG) transport were determined during hindlimb perfusion in the presence of a maximally stimulating concentration of insulin (10 mU/ml). Hindlimb glucose uptake was approximately 29% above sedentary (Sed) levels in rats examined within 24 h (24H) of their last exercise session. However, when rats were examined 48 h (48H) after their last exercise session, hindlimb glucose uptake was not different from Sed levels. Maximal 3-MG transport was enhanced, above Sed levels, in red (RG; 72% increase) and white (WG; 44% increase) gastrocnemius and plantaris (Plan; 67% increase) muscles, but not soleus (Sol), of 24H rats. GLUT-4 protein content was significantly elevated in those muscles that exhibited enhanced 3-MG transport in 24H rats. GLUT-4 protein content was also elevated in RG, WG, and Plan of 48H rats and was not different from 24H rats. Despite the elevated GLUT-4 protein content, 3-MG transport in 48H rats was only slightly, although statistically not significantly, higher than in Sed rats. These results provide evidence that exercise training does not result in a persistent increase in skeletal muscle glucose uptake or transport, despite an increase in GLUT-4 protein content.

Insulin Responsiveness

Study has demonstrated an essential role of cortical filamentous actin (F-actin) in insulin-regulated glucose uptake by skeletal muscle. Here, we tested whether perturbations in F-actin contributed to impaired insulin responsiveness provoked by hyperinsulinemia. In L6 myotubes stably expressing GLUT4 that carries an exofacial myc-epitope tag, acute insulin stimulation (20 min, 100 nM) increased GLUT4myc translocation and glucose uptake by ∼2-fold. In contrast, a hyperinsulinemic state, induced by inclusion of 5 nM insulin in the medium for 12 h decreased the ability of insulin to stimulate these processes. Defects in insulin signaling did not readily account for the observed disruption. In contrast, hyperinsulinemia reduced cortical F-actin. This occurred concomitant with a loss of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), a lipid involved in cytoskeletal regulation. Restoration of plasma membrane PIP2 in hyperinsulinemic cells restored F-actin and insulin responsiveness. Consistent with these in vitro observations suggesting that the hyperinsulinemic state negatively affects cortical F-actin structure, epitrochlearis skeletal muscle from insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemic Zucker fatty rats displayed a similar loss of F-actin structure compared with that in muscle from lean insulin-sensitive littermates. We propose that a component of insulin-induced insulin resistance in skeletal muscle involves defects in PIP2/F-actin structure essential for insulin-regulated glucose transport.
