Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide activates the Raf-Mek1/2-ERK1/2 module via a cyclic AMP/cAMP-dependent protein kinase/Rap1-mediated pathway.
The gastrointestinal hormone, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), is one of the most important regulators of insulin secretion following ingestion of a meal. GIP stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta-cell via its G protein-coupled receptor activation of adenylyl cyclase and other signal transduction pathways, but there is little known regarding subsequent protein kinase pathways that are activated. A screening technique was used to determine the relative abundance of 75 protein kinases in CHO-K1 cells expressing the GIP receptor and in two pancreatic beta-cell lines (betaTC-3 and INS-1 (832/13) cells). This information was used to identify kinases that are potentially regulated following GIP stimulation, with a focus on GIP regulation of the ERK1/2 MAPK pathway. In CHO-K1 cells, GIP induced phosphorylation of Raf-1 (Ser-259), Mek1/2 (Ser-217/Ser-221), ERK1/2 (Thr-202 and Tyr-204), and p90 RSK (Ser-380) in a concentration-dependent manner. Activation of ERK1/2 was maximal at 4 min and was cAMP-dependent protein kinase-dependent and protein kinase C-independent. Studies using a beta-cell line (INS-1 clone 832/13) corroborated these findings, and it was also demonstrated that the ERK1/2 module could be activated by GIP in the absence of glucose. Finally, we have shown that GIP regulation of the ERK1/2 module is via Rap1 but does not involve Gbetagamma subunits nor Src tyrosine kinase, and we propose that cAMP-based regulation occurs via B-Raf in both CHO-K1 and beta-cells. These results establish the importance of GIP in the cellular regulation of the ERK1/2 module and identify a role for cAMP in coupling its G protein-coupled receptors to ERK1/2 activity in pancreatic beta-cells.
