Disease relevance of IRS4

 

High impact information on IRS4

  • In cultured brown preadipocytes, expression of IRS-1 and IRS-2 mRNAs and proteins was at relatively high levels before and after differentiation into mature fat cells, while IRS-3 transcript was not detectable in preadipocytes but increased during the course of differentiation, and IRS-4 mRNA was barely detected in both states [5].
  • Expression of Wnt 10a, a molecule known to inhibit adipogenesis, was dramatically increased in the IRS-1 KO cells, and this could be reduced by overexpression of IRS-1 or IRS-4, which was correlated with restoration of differentiation [5].
  • In order to distinguish common and unique functions of IRS-1, IRS-2, and IRS-4, we expressed them individually in 32D myeloid progenitor cells containing the human insulin receptor (32D(IR)) [6].
  • IRS-4 mediates protein kinase B signaling during insulin stimulation without promoting antiapoptosis [6].
  • These data suggest that IRS-4 is insulin-/IGF-1-activated by phosphorylation and not by translocation, inducing the recruitment of SH2 domain-containing proteins and PKC zeta to the membrane [7].
 

Biological context of IRS4

 

Anatomical context of IRS4

 

Associations of IRS4 with chemical compounds

  • The phosphotyrosine form of PY160 was purified from insulin-treated HEK 293 cells by anti-phosphotyrosine immunoaffinity chromatography, the sequences of peptides determined, and its cDNA cloned [11].
  • IRS-4 was found to be associated with two src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing proteins, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and Grb2, the adaptor to the guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras [12].
  • Interestingly, none of these four tyrosines was individually critical for the interaction between Crk-II and IRS-4, but when all four tyrosines were simultaneously mutated to phenylalanine, the IGF-I induced interaction between these molecules was abolished [13].
  • The available data are consistent with the notion that both IRS-1 and IRS-2 are important for insulin action and glucose homeostasis in vivo, whereas IRS-and IRS-4 appear to play a redundant role in the IRS signalling system [14].
  • In summary, we showed that Ins induces tyr-phosphorylation of IRS-4, an effect modulated by Ang II [15].
 

Regulatory relationships of IRS4

  • On the other hand, overexpression of IRAS enhanced IRS-4-dependent insulin stimulation of the extracellularly regulated kinase [16].
  • Nevertheless, as demonstrated in this study, both IRS-3 and IRS-4 can also stimulate translocation of GLUT4 [17].
