Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK)
catalyzes the first committed step in hepatic gluconeogenesis. Glucagon
and glucocorticoids stimulate PEPCK gene transcription, whereas insulin
has a dominant inhibitory effect. We have shown that inhibitors of
1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) block this action of
insulin. In contrast, three distinct agents, all of which prevent
activation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, have no
effect on the regulation of PEPCK transcription by insulin. However, a
subsequent report has suggested that this pathway is involved in the
inhibition of cAMP-induced PEPCK gene transcription by insulin. To
address these conflicting data, we re-examined the Ras MAP kinase
pathway, not only with respect to regulation of PEPCK gene
transcription, but also for regulation of PI 3-kinase and p42/p44 MAP
kinase. Overexpression of constitutively active Ras (V61) (or Raf-1
(RafCAAX)) partially represses PEPCK transcription in
hepatoma cells. However, an inhibitor of MAP kinase kinase blocks this
action of RafCAAX but has no effect on regulation of PEPCK
gene transcription by insulin. Second, the action of a dominant
negative Ras (N17Ras) on PEPCK gene transcription correlates more
closely with the inhibition of PI 3-kinase than with the inhibition of
p42/p44 MAP kinase. Third, insulin cannot activate p42/p44 MAP kinase
in the presence of cAMP even though cAMP-induced PEPCK gene
transcription is inhibited by insulin. This data confirms that the Ras
MAP kinase pathway is not required for the regulation of PEPCK gene
transcription by insulin and demonstrates the importance of employing
multiple techniques when investigating the function of signaling
pathways.
