Paraquat-induced oxidative stress represses phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activities leading to impaired glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.


ABSTRACT: Accumulated evidence indicates that oxidative stress causes and/or promotes insulin resistance; however, the mechanism by which this occurs is not fully understood. This study was undertaken to elucidate the molecular mechanism by which oxidative stress induced by paraquat impairs insulin-dependent glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. We confirmed that paraquat-induced oxidative stress decreased glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation to the cell surface, resulting in repression of insulin-dependent 2-deoxyglucose uptake. Under these conditions, oxidative stress did not affect insulin-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and -2, or binding of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-OH kinase (PI 3-kinase) p85 regulatory subunit or p110alpha catalytic subunit to each IRS. In contrast, we found that oxidative stress induced by paraquat inhibited activities of PI 3-kinase bound to IRSs and also inhibited phosphorylation of Akt, the downstream serine/threonine kinase that has been shown to play an essential role in insulin-dependent translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane. Overexpression of active form Akt (myr-Akt) restored inhibition of insulin-dependent glucose uptake by paraquat, indicating that paraquat-induced oxidative stress inhibits insulin signals upstream of Akt. Paraquat treatment with and without insulin treatment decreased the activity of class Ia PI 3-kinases p110alpha and p110beta that are mainly expressed in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. However, paraquat treatment did not repress the activity of the PI 3-kinase p110alpha mutated at Cys(90) in the p85 binding region. These results indicate that the PI 3-kinase p110 is a possible primary target of paraquat-induced oxidative stress to reduce the PI 3-kinase activity and impaired glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
