Insulin regulates the expression of multiple hepatic genes through a conserved insulin response sequence (IRS) (CAAAAC/TAA) by an as yet undetermined mechanism, Protein kinase B/Akt (PKB/Akt), a member of the PKA/PKC serine/threonine kinase family, functions downstream from phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) in mediating effects of insulin on glucose transport and glycogen synthesis, We asked whether PKB/Akt mediates sequence-specific effects of insulin on hepatic gene expression using the model of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) promoter. Insulin lowers IGFBP-1 mRNA levels, inhibits IGFBP-1 promoter activity, and activates PKB/Akt in HepG2 hepatoma cells through a PI3K-dependent, rapamycin insensitive mechanism, Constitutively active PI3K and PKB/ Akt are each sufficient to mediate effects of insulin on the IGFBP-1 promoter in a nonadditive fashion, Dominant negative K179 PKB/Akt disrupts the ability of insulin and PI3K to activate PKB/Akt and to inhibit pro- meter activity, The IGFBP-1 promoter contains two IRSs each of which is sufficient to mediate sequence-specific effects of insulin, PI3K, and PKB/Akt on promoter activity, Highly related IRSs from the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and apolipoprotein CIII genes also are effective in this setting, These results indicate that PKB/Akt functions downstream from PI3R in mediating sequence-specific effects of insulin on the expression of IGFBP-1 and perhaps multiple hepatic genes through a conserved IRS.
