Active kinome in human skeletal muscle insulin resistance
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Obesity-related insulin resistance (OIR) is one of the main contributors to type 2 diabetes and other metabolic diseases. Protein kinases are implicated in key signaling steps including insulin signaling and glucose metabolism. Molecular mechanisms underlying OIR involving global active kinases remain less understood. Herein, we report findings from an in vivo active kinase profiling study in skeletal muscle from lean control (Lean) and OIR human participants, which identified the 1st active kinome comprised of 54 active protein kinases in human skeletal muscle. The activities of 23 kinases were different in OIR compared to Lean muscle (11 hyper- and 12 hypo-active), while their protein abundance was the same between the two groups. The activities of multiple kinases involved in AMPK and p38 signaling were lower in OIR compared to Lean. On the contrary, multiple kinases in JNK signaling pathway exhibited higher activity in OIR vs. Lean muscle. The kinase-substrate-prediction based on experimental data further confirmed a potential down-regulation of insulin signaling (e.g., inhibited phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 and AKT1/2). These findings provide a global view of the active kinome in OIR and Lean muscle, pinpoint novel specific impairment in kinase activities in multiple signaling pathways important for skeletal muscle insulin resistance, and provide potential drug targets (i.e., abnormal active kinase) to prevent and/or reverse skeletal muscle insulin resistance in humans.
