DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competitive renewal of NIH grant DK55545 which is focused on the role of PI 3-kinase in insulin action. PI 3-kinase is important as a critical node in insulin control of metabolism and a key point of divergence of insulin signaling. Using, both in vitro and in vivo approaches, including RNA interference (RNAi) and creation and characterization of mice and cell lines in which specific isoforms of PI 3-kinase have been deleted, i.e. knocked out, at the whole body or tissue specific levels, we have demonstrated multiple, important ways in which this enzyme controls insulin signaling in both positive and negative ways. This includes differences in the activity and properties of the various regulatory subunits of PI 3-kinase, the important role of stoichiometry between regulatory and catalytic subunits in PI 3-kinase signaling and insulin action, and the ability of PI 3-kinase to allow divergence of the downstream signal between Akt and atypical PKCs. In addition, we have demonstrated alterations in PI 3-kinase activity in disease states and the relationship of this pathway to other signaling pathways, including two previously unrecognized connections: one between PI 3-kinase regulatory subunits and activation of the stress kinases JNK and p38, which may link the p85 subunit to serine phosphorylation of IRS proteins in insulin resistant states; and a second between the PI 3-kinase regulatory subunit and the activity of the major PIPS phosphatase PTEN in cells. This has led us to new hypotheses about the important role of PI 3-kinase not only as a site of divergence of the insulin signaling pathways, but also a site of both positive and negative regulation in physiological and pathological states, and a site for cross-talk with other signaling systems, especially the stress kinases. In the next five years, we propose to 1) Dissect the multiple, differential roles of PI 3-kinase regulatory subunits (p85a/b, p50a and p55a/AS53) in insulin signaling, focusing on the potential actions and interactions emanating from the different N-terminal domains of the regulatory subunits that are independent of PI 3- kinase activity; 2) Determine the role of the PI 3-kinase catalytic subunits p110a and p11 Ob in divergent insulin signaling in vivo through tissue specific deletion ; and 3) Explore new chemical biology approaches to modifying PI 3-kinase mediated signaling in normal and insulin resistant states through the use of small molecule screening and new in vivo gene silencing techniques using nanoparticle delivery systems.

描述(由申请人提供)：这是美国国立卫生研究院授予的DK55545的竞争性更新，重点是PI 3-激酶在胰岛素作用中的作用。PI-3-K是胰岛素代谢调控的关键节点，也是胰岛素信号转导的关键环节。利用体外和体内的方法，包括RNA干扰(RNAi)和建立和鉴定小鼠和细胞系，其中特定的PI 3-激酶亚型已经在全身或组织特异性水平上被缺失，即被敲除，我们已经证明了这种酶在正负两种方式中控制胰岛素信号的多种重要方式。这包括PI3-激酶不同调节亚基的活性和性质的差异，调节亚基和催化亚基之间的化学计量比在PI3K信号和胰岛素作用中的重要作用，以及PI3K允许Akt和非典型PKC之间下游信号分化的能力。此外，我们还证实了在疾病状态下PI 3-激酶活性的变化及其与其他信号通路的关系，包括两个以前未知的联系：一个是PI 3-激酶调节亚基与应激蛋白JNK和p38的激活之间的联系，后者可能将P85亚单位与胰岛素抵抗状态下IRS蛋白的丝氨酸磷酸化联系起来；第二个联系是PI 3-K调节亚单位与细胞中主要的PIPS磷酸酶PTEN的活性之间的联系。这使得我们提出了新的假设，认为PI3-Kinase的重要作用不仅是胰岛素信号通路的分化部位，也是生理和病理状态下正负调节的部位，以及与其他信号系统，特别是应激信号通路的串扰部位。在接下来的五年里，我们建议：1)剖析PI 3-激酶调节亚基(p85a/b、p50a和p55a/AS53)在胰岛素信号转导中的多种不同作用，重点关注与PI 3-激酶活性无关的调节亚基不同N端域的潜在作用和相互作用；2)通过组织特异性缺失确定PI 3-K催化亚基p110a和p110b在体内不同胰岛素信号转导中的作用；3)通过小分子筛选和利用纳米颗粒传递系统的体内基因沉默技术，探索在正常和胰岛素抵抗状态下修饰PI 3-K介导的信号转导的新的化学生物学方法。
