The insulin receptor substrate IRS-1 is a key substrate of insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor tyrosine kinases that mediates their metabolic and growth-promoting actions. Proteasomal degradation of IRS-1 is induced following activation of the downstream kinase mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) to constitute a negative feedback loop. However, the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Here we report that Ser 422 of IRS-1 is phosphorylated by mTORC1 and required for IRS-1 degradation induced by prolonged IGF stimulation. Phosphorylation of Ser 422 then recruits the SCF E3 ligase complex, which catalyzes IRS-1 ubiquitination. Phosphorylation-dependent IRS-1 degradation contributes to impaired growth and survival responses to IGF in cells lacking TSC2, a negative regulator of mTORC1. Inhibition of IRS-1 degradation promotes sustained Akt activation in IGF-stimulated cells. Our work clarifies the nature of the IRS-1-mTORC1 feedback loop and elucidates its role in temporal regulation of IGF signaling.

This article focusing on examining the function and further, molecular function of SHP2 in ovarian cancer (OC). For the molecular mechanism, bioinformatics was applied to study the specifically expressed genes in ovarian cancer ; the western blotting was applied to identify the EGF, p-SHP2, ZEB1, and E-Cadherin expressions in ovarian cancer tissue and pair adjacent tissue; then SKOV3 cells were treated with EGF and infected with E-Cadherin overexpression lentivirus, and then cells were treated with benzyl butyl phthalate and IRS-1 respectively. Detection of expression of p-SHP2, ZEB1, E-Cadherin, α3-integrin, p-Src, p-SMAD2, Snail, Slug and SKOV3 cells of migration and invasion abilities were detected using Western blot method and cell scratch assay and Transwell assay; Progression of ovarian cancer was detected using subcutaneous tumor transplantation assay in nude mice and HE staining method and immunocyto.

Insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and IRS-2 are major molecules that transduce signals from insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I receptors. The physiological functions of these proteins have been intensively investigated in mice, while little is known in other animals. Our previous study showed that the disruption of IRS-2 impairs body growth but not glucose tolerance or insulin sensitivity in rats, which led us to hypothesize that IRS-1 plays more pivotal roles in insulin functions than IRS-2.

Blueberries are rich in polyphenols, which exhibit significant anti-diabetic activity. In this study, polyphenolic compounds with potential hypoglycemic activity were identified from blueberry polyphenol extract (BPE). This research focused on assessing the hypoglycemic effects of BPE and its polyphenolic compounds (dihydroquercetin and gallic acid) on diabetic mice induced by streptozotocin (STZ) and high-fat diet (HFD), as well as the related fundamental mechanisms.
