1 18644868 Prep1-hypomorphic (Prep1(i/i)) mice exhibit an absolute reduction in circulating insulin levels but normal glucose tolerance.
2 18644868 We conclude that Prep1 controls insulin sensitivity through the p160-GLUT4 pathway.
3 20864515 Tyrosine phosphorylation of both insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate (IRS)1/2 was significantly enhanced in Prep1(i/i) livers accompanied by a specific downregulation of the SYP and SHP1 tyrosine phosphatases.
4 20864515 Prep1 overexpression in HepG2 liver cells upregulated SYP and SHP1 and inhibited insulin-induced IR and IRS1/2 phosphorylation and was accompanied by reduced glycogen content.
5 20864515 Consistently, overexpression of the Prep1 partner Pbx1, but not of p160MBP, mimicked Prep1 effects on tyrosine phosphorylations, glycogen content, and on SYP and SHP1 expression.
6 20864515 In Prep1 overexpressing cells, antisense silencing of SHP1, but not that of SYP, rescued insulin-dependent IR phosphorylation and glycogen accumulation.
7 20864515 Both Prep1 and Pbx1 bind SHP1 promoter at a site located between nucleotides -2,113 and -1,778.
8 20864515 SHP1, a known silencer of insulin signal, is a transcriptional target of Prep1.
9 20864515 In liver, transcriptional activation of SHP1 gene by Prep1 attenuates insulin signal transduction and reduces glucose storage.
