Abstract
The effects of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and insulin were compared in wild-type human insulin receptors (HIRc cells) and human insulin receptors lacking 43 COOH-terminal amino acid residues (HIR delta CT cells). TPA increased total phosphorylation of the wild-type insulin receptor and inhibited insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation by 32 +/- 10% in HIRc cells. TPA inhibited insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation by 46 +/- 14% in HIR delta CT cells and also caused a 65% decrease in basal phosphorylation. Insulin-stimulated tyrosine kinase activity for poly(Glu4/Tyr1) was inhibited by TPA in HIRc and HIR delta CT cells by 50 and 40%, respectively. TPA decreased insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation into glycogen by 50% in HIRc cells and to near basal levels in HIR delta CT cells; this inhibitory effect of TPA was reversed in both cell lines by staurosporine. In conclusion, 1) TPA-induced inhibition of insulin receptor tyrosine autophosphorylation was linked to concomitant inhibition of the biological effects of insulin in cells expressing either wild-type or COOH-terminal truncated insulin receptors; and 2) the inhibitory effects of TPA were not dependent upon phosphorylation of COOH-terminal residues and furthermore appeared to be independent of phosphorylation of any insulin receptor serine/threonine residues. These findings suggest a novel protein kinase C mechanism that results in altered insulin receptor function without increasing phosphorylation of the receptor.
