Popis: | Insulin action on adipocytes was studied in the offspring of mothers who had been fed either a control (20% protein) or a low (8%)-protein diet during pregnancy and lactation. Adipocytes isolated from low-protein offspring had significantly higher basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptakes than controls. This may be related to a threefold increase in insulin receptors in low-protein adipocytes. Consistent with these observed changes in glucose transport, adipocytes from low-protein animals had significantly higher basal and insulin-stimulated insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1-associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activities. There was also more p85-associated PI 3-kinase activity in these adipocytes. There was no difference in expression in the p85 regulatory subunit or the p110-alpha catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase. In contrast, there was a sixfold reduction in the p110-beta catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase in adipocytes from low-protein animals. These results suggest that poor fetal nutrition during pregnancy and lactation can have long-term effects on glucose transport and on the expression of key components of the insulin signaling pathway in adipocytes. |
