Activation of insulin receptors stimulates a
rapid increase in the ion permeability of liver cells. To evaluate
whether this response involves insertion of ion channels, plasma
membrane turnover was measured in a model liver cell line using the
fluorescent membrane marker FM1-43. Under basal conditions, the rate
of constitutive membrane turnover was ~2%min 1, and
balanced exocytosis and endocytosis maintained the total cell membrane
area constant. Exposure to insulin stimulated a transient increase in
membrane turnover of up to 10-fold above constitutive rates. The
response was concentration-dependent (0.001-10 µM). Insulin also caused a parallel increase in
membrane conductance as measured by whole-cell patch clamp recording
due to opening of Cl - and
K+-selective ion channels. The insulin-stimulated membrane
turnover did not appear to involve the constitutive recycling
compartments, suggesting that a distinct pool of vesicles may be
involved. The effects of insulin on membrane turnover and membrane
conductance were inhibited by blockers of phosphoinositide
3-kinase LY294002 and wortmannin or by disrupting microtubule assembly
with nocodazole. Taken together, these findings indicate that insulin
stimulates recruitment of new membranes through phosphoinositide
3-kinase-dependent mechanisms. Thus, regulated insertion of a
separate population of ion channel-containing vesicles may represent
one mechanism for mediating the changes in membrane conductance that
are essential for the cellular response to insulin.
