IGF-I has a unique biphasic effect on skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Initially, IGF-I inhibits differentiation and promotes proliferation of skeletal myoblasts. Subsequently, IGF-I switches to stimulating differentiation of these cells. The mechanisms responsible for this switch in IGF action remain unknown. We have examined the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)1/2 signaling in mediating the early inhibitory and late stimulatory effects of IGF-I on the gene expression of myogenin, a skeletal muscle-specific transcription factor essential for myogenic differentiation. We find that, concurrent with its early inhibitory and late stimulatory effects on myogenin mRNA, IGF-I has a biphasic but opposite effect on phosphorylation of Erk1/2: initially, IGF-I increases and subsequently decreases the phosphorylation of Erk1/2 in comparison to untreated cells. Cotreatment with an inhibitor of Erk1/2 activation prevents the early IGF-I-stimulation of Erk1/2 phosphorylation and partially reverses IGF-I-inhibition of myogenin mRNA. Conversely, preventing the late IGF-I-induced decrease in Erk1/2 phosphorylation blocks IGF-I-stimulation of myogenin mRNA. Our data indicate that the time-dependent, opposing effects of IGF-I on skeletal muscle cell differentiation are mediated, at least in part, by biphasic but opposite effects on activation of the Erk1/2 MAPK signaling pathway.
