title: Effected of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I on glucose transport and its transporters in soleus muscle of lean and obese mice.
abstract: The mechanisms underlying insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) action on glucose transport share similar processes leading to Glut 4 translocation after respective receptor activation. Among these steps are phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (P13-kinase). This enzyme could be involved in stimulated glucose transport in muscle, since its inhibitor, wortmannin, blocks the hormonal effect in muscle. P13-kinase is activated by insulin and IGF-I in a rapid and transient manner in incubated soleus muscles. When P13-kinase activation was studied in muscle of obese insulin-resistant mice, there was a marked alteration in the response to insulin both in vivo and in vitro. P13-kinase activation by IGF-I was also altered in obese mice, although to a lesser degree.
