Ghrelin was identified in the stomach as an
endogenous ligand specific for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor
(GHS-R). GHS-R is found in various tissues, but its function is
unknown. Here we show that GHS-R is found in hepatoma cells. Exposure
of these cells to ghrelin caused up-regulation of several
insulin-induced activities including tyrosine phosphorylation of
insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), association of the adapter
molecule growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 with IRS-1,
mitogen-activated protein kinase activity, and cell proliferation.
Unlike insulin, ghrelin inhibited Akt kinase activity as well as
up-regulated gluconeogenesis. These findings raise the possibility that
ghrelin modulates insulin activities in humans.
