The mechanisms by which insulin-like
growth factor I (IGF-I) and insulin regulate eukaryotic initiation
factor (eIF)4F formation were examined in the ovine fetus. Insulin
infusion increased phosphorylation of eIF4E-binding protein
(4E-BP1) in muscle and liver. IGF-I infusion did not alter
4E-BP1 phosphorylation in liver. In muscle, IGF-I increased
4E-BP1 phosphorylation by 27%; the percentage in the
-form in
the IGF-I group was significantly lower than that in the insulin group.
In liver, only IGF-I increased eIF4G. Both IGF-I and insulin increased
eIF4E · eIF4G binding in muscle, but only insulin decreased the
amount of 4E-BP1 associated with eIF4E. In liver, only IGF-I
increased eIF4E · eIF4G binding. Insulin increased the
phosphorylation of p70 S6 kinase (p70S6k) in both muscle
and liver and protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) in muscle, two indicative
signal proteins in the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase pathway.
IGF-I increased PKB/Akt phosphorylation in muscle but had no effect on
p70S6k phosphorylation in muscle or liver. We conclude that
insulin and IGF-I modulate eIF4F formation; however, the two hormones have different regulatory mechanisms. Insulin increases phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 and eIF4E · eIF4G binding in muscle, whereas
IGF-I regulates eIF4F formation by increasing total eIF4G. Insulin, but
not IGF-I, decreased 4E-BP1 content associated with eIF4E. Insulin
regulates translation initiation via the PI 3-kinase-p70S6k
pathway, whereas IGF-I does so mainly via mechanisms independent of the
PI 3-kinase-p70S6k pathway.
