Akt and phosphoinositide regulation and wortmannin-dependent induction of phospho-Akt in 3T3-L1 adipocytes on cold exposure followed by rewarming
2010
Abstract We exposed 3T3-L1 adipocytes to cooling followed by rewarming and examined phospho-molecule induction, including that of phospho-Akt, and the mechanism underlying the induction in these exposed cells; the viability did not deteriorate. Cooling at 4 °C increased the phospho-Thr-308 Akt level. On subsequent rewarming at 37 °C, phospho-Ser-473 Akt expression was induced in a wortmannin (PI3K inhibitor)-dependent and anisomycin (ribotoxic agent)-independent manner without decrease in the phospho-Thr-308 Akt level, and Akt-mediated phosphorylation and PI 3,4,5-trisphosphate accumulation were induced. Our results suggest that cooling followed by rewarming induces phospho-molecules through different responses of regulatory molecules, including the target molecule, to changes in temperature.
