Copyright American Diabetes Association, Inc., 2008 Muscle mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity in Indians ABSTRACT Objective: Type 2 diabetes has become a global epidemic; and Asian Indians have a higher susceptibility to diabetes than Europeans. We investigated whether Indians had any metabolic differences compared to Northern European (NE) Americans that may render them more susceptible to diabetes. Research Design and Methods: We studied thirteen diabetic Indians, thirteen non-diabetic Indians, and thirteen non-diabetic NE Americans who were matched for age, body mass index, and sex. The primary comparisons were insulin sensitivity by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity for oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) by measuring mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA), OXPHOS gene transcripts, citrate synthase activity and maximal mitochondrial ATP production rate (MAPR). Other factors that may cause insulin-resistance were also measured. Results: The glucose infusion rates required to maintain identical glucose levels during the similar insulin infusion rates were substantially lower in diabetic Indians than in the non-diabetic participants (p<0.001); and were lower in non-diabetic Indians than in non-diabetic NE Americans (p<0.002). mtDNA (P<0.02), OXPHOS gene transcripts (P<0.01), citrate synthase and MAPR (P<0.03) were higher in Indians irrespective of their diabetic status. Intramuscular triglyceride, C-reactive protein, IL-6 and TNF-α concentrations were higher, whereas, adiponectin concentrations were lower in diabetic Indians. Conclusion: Despite being more insulin-resistant diabetic Indians had similar muscle OXPHOS capacity as non-diabetic Indians, demonstrating that diabetes per se does not cause mitochondrial dysfunction. Indians irrespective of their diabetic status had higher OXPHOS capacity than NE Americans, although Indians were substantially more insulin-resistant, indicating a dissociation between mitochondrial dysfunction and insulin-resistance. 2 Muscle mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity in Indians here is a global epidemic of type 2 Europeans.

Abstract Elucidating crucial driver genes is paramount for understanding the cancer origins and mechanisms of progression, as well as selecting targets for molecular therapy. Cancer genes are usually ranked by the frequency of mutation, which, however, does not necessarily reflect their driver strength. Here we hypothesize that driver strength is higher for genes that are preferentially mutated in patients with few driver mutations overall, because these few mutations should be strong enough to initiate cancer.

Abstract: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine kinase with a plethora of substrates. As a modulator of several cellular processes, GSK-3 has a central position in cell metabolism and signaling, with important roles both in physiological and pathological conditions. GSK-3 has been associated with a number of human disorders, such as neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). GSK-3 contributes to the hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, the main component of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), one of the hallmarks of AD. GSK-3 is further involved in the regulation of different neuronal processes that are dysregulated during AD pathogenesis, such as the generation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide or Aβ-induced cell death, axonal transport, cholinergic function, and adult neurogenesis or synaptic function. In this review, we will summarize recent data about GSK-3 involvement in these processes contributing to AD pathology, mostly focusing on the crucial interplay between GSK-3 and tau protein. We further discuss the current development of potential AD therapies targeting GSK-3 or GSK-3-phosphorylated tau.

  • Maintaining Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Activity Is Critical for Mtor Kinase Inhibitors to Inhibit Cancer Cell Growth
    Published OnlineFirst March 13, 2014; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-13-2946 Cancer Therapeutics, Targets, and Chemical Biology Research Maintaining Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Activity Is Critical for mTOR Kinase Inhibitors to Inhibit Cancer Cell Growth Junghui Koo1, Ping Yue1, Anthony A. Gal2, Fadlo R. Khuri1, and Shi-Yong Sun1 Abstract mTOR kinase inhibitors that target both mTORC1 and mTORC2 are being evaluated in cancer clinical trials. Here, we report that glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) is a critical determinant for the therapeutic response to this class of experimental drugs. Pharmacologic inhibition of GSK3 antagonized their suppressive effects on the growth of cancer cells similarly to genetic attenuation of GSK3. Conversely, expression of a constitutively activated form of GSK3b sensitized cancer cells to mTOR inhibition. Consistent with these findings, higher basal levels of GSK3 activity in a panel of human lung cancer cell lines correlated with more efficacious responses. Mechanistic investigations showed that mTOR kinase inhibitors reduced cyclin D1 levels in a GSK3b-dependent manner, independent of their effects on suppressing mTORC1 signaling and cap binding. Notably, selective inhibition of mTORC2 triggered proteasome-mediated cyclin D1 degradation, suggesting that mTORC2 blockade is responsible for GSK3-dependent reduction of cyclin D1. Silencing expression of the ubiquitin E3 ligase FBX4 rescued this reduction, implicating FBX4 in mediating this effect of mTOR inhibition. Together, our findings define a novel mechanism by which mTORC2 promotes cell growth, with potential implications for under- standing the clinical action of mTOR kinase inhibitors.

Here we carry out a SILAC-based quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis using isogenic knockin cell lines containing ‘driver’ oncogenic mutations of PIK3CA to dissect the signalling mechanisms responsible for oncogenic phenotypes induced by mutant PIK3CA. From 8,075 unique phosphopeptides identified, we observe that aberrant activation of PI3K pathway leads to increased phosphorylation of a surprisingly wide variety of kinases and downstream signalling networks. Here, by integrating phosphoproteomic data with human protein microarray-based AKT1 kinase assays, we discover and validate six novel AKT1 substrates, including cortactin. Through mutagenesis studies, we demonstrate that phosphorylation of cortactin by AKT1 is important for mutant PI3K-enhanced cell migration and invasion. Our study describes a quantitative and global approach for identifying mutation-specific signalling events and for discovering novel signalling molecules as readouts of pathway activation or potential therapeutic targets. 1 McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine and Department of Biological Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 733 North Broadway, BRB 527, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA.

Recruitment of CDK8 to function as a transcriptional coregulator of p53, by MAML1 leads to phosphorylation of Notch1 and b-catenin and MEF2C. In this report, we show that subsequent degradation via the Fbw7/Sel10 ubiquitin active GSK3b directly interacts with the MAML1 ligase (18). Previous studies reported that MAML1 N-terminus and decreases MAML1 transcriptional recruitment of p300 to a DNA-CSL-Notch complex potentiates Notch ICD transcription from chromatin activity, suggesting that GSK3b might target a templates in vitro (16,17), and the p300-MAML1 coactivator in its regulation of gene expression.
