Cyclic AMP does not modulate hexose uptake of serum-deprived BHK-21 fibroblasts.
We have studied the uptakes of the glucose analogs, 2-deoxyglucose (2DG), and 3-O-methylglucose (3OMG) in serum-deprived BHK-21 fibroblasts. Incubation for 4 hours with 0.25 mM 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (MIX) increased cellular cyclic AMP 3 to 15 fold, without affecting the initial rates of uptake of these sugars. Incubation with 100 nM insulin, doubled hexose uptake without affecting cyclic AMP. Insulin did not modify the cyclic AMP response to MIX; nor did MIX alter the hexose uptake response to insulin. There was no effect of 0.1 mM L-isoproterenol (ISO) or 0.1 mM prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on cyclic AMP. PGE1 slightly stimulated uptake of 2DG but not 3OMG; ISO did not affect hexose uptake. We conclude that cyclic AMP does not directly regulate hexose uptake in these cells.
