Abstract

H2O2 and vanadate are known insulinomimetic agents. Together they induce insulin's bioeffects with a potency which exceeds that seen with insulin, vanadate, or H2O2 alone. Employing Western blotting with anti-P-Tyr antibodies, we have identified in Fao cells at least four proteins (pp180, 150, 114, and 100) whose P-Tyr content is rapidly increased upon treatment of the cells with 3 mM H2O2. Tyrosine phosphorylation of these and additional proteins was markedly potentiated (6-10-fold) when 100 microM sodium orthovanadate was added together with H2O2. The effects of H2O2 and vanadate on protein tyrosine phosphorylation were rapid and specific. The enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation was accompanied by a concomitant inhibition of a cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. The latter was inhibited by 50% in 3 mM H2O2-treated cells. The inhibitory effect was augmented in the combined presence of H2O2 and vanadate. Half- and maximal effects of vanadate were obtained at 15 microM and 1 mM, respectively. Vanadate (1 mM) alone, added to the cells, had only a trivial effect on protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. A 45-s challenge with insulin (10(-7) M) of cells pretreated with H2O2 largely mimicked the potentiating effects of vanadate on protein tyrosine phosphorylation but not on protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Our results suggest the involvement of multiple tyrosine-phosphorylation proteins in mediating the biological effects of H2O2/vanadate. Their enhanced phosphorylation can be attributed at least in part, to the inhibitory effects exerted by H2O2 alone, or in combination with vanadate, on protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. The similarity between proteins phosphorylated in Fao cells in response to H2O2/vanadate or H2O2/insulin, suggests that either treatment stimulates protein tyrosine kinases having similar substrate specificities. The insulin receptor kinase is a likely candidate as its activity is markedly enhanced either by insulin (plus H2O2) or by H2O2/vanadate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
