Abstract

Exposure of Clone 9 cells, a rat liver cell line, to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) resulted in a striking and rapid stimulation of glucose transport (8- to 10-fold in 1 h). A comparable response was found in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, C2C12myoblasts, and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, which, similar to Clone 9 cells, express only the Glut 1 glucose transporter isoform. The enhancement of glucose transport in Clone 9 cells in response to H2O2was significantly attenuated by genistein and the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor, U73122. Exposure to H2O2resulted in a rise in cellsn-1,2-diacylglycerol content, and the rise was significantly inhibited by U73122. Moreover, the H2O2-induced stimulation of glucose transport was significantly blocked by thapsigargin. Neither staurosporine nor a 24-h preincubation in the presence of phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (TPA) affected the stimulatory effect of hydrogen peroxide on glucose transport. The activity of big mitogen-activated kinase (BMK1) and of stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK), both members of mitogen-activated protein kinases, were enhanced in response to exposure to H2O2; however, neither protein kinase appeared to be linked to the enhancement of glucose transport by H2O2. It is concluded that the stimulation of glucose transport in response to H2O2is independent of changes in PKC, BMK1, and SAPK activity, and is mediated, at least in part, through H2O2-induced stimulation of protein tyrosine kinase and PLC pathways.

      AMPK is also able to induce GLUT1 expression and membrane translocation by inhibiting TXNIP [47], indicating that GLUT1 overexpression via AMPK can protect from cell death caused by glucose deprivation. More interestingly, H2O2 stimulates glucose uptake in cells overexpressing GLUT1 [48]. Accordingly, with these results, H2O2 increases nuclear AR levels and GLUT1 production via AMPK in LNCaP cells.

      When mROS is produced in excess and OXPHOS is impaired, it is often observed a compensative enhanced glycolytic activity, thus suggesting that mROS and glycolysis interact during cell energy homeostasis [90]. For instance, in skeletal muscle and cultured cells, H2O2 stimulates glucose uptake [91–94]. Interestingly, in L6 myoblast, glucose uptake inhibition leads to increased ROS [95] and suggests a possible antioxidant-like role for glucose.

      Additionally, coupling to transport over BBB endothelial cells, dubbed neurobarrier coupling, has also been proposed [238,240]. Each of these processes may be regulated by changes in [Ca2 +]i as well [241–245]. Spontaneous ICWs have been observed in vitro in cultured astrocytes starting from the 90s [184].

      The transporter isoform GLUT4, largely confined to an intracellular storage site, becomes recruited to the cell surface under the influence of several stimuli, such as insulin, contraction, and hypoxia [18–20]; also GLUT1 is recruited to the plasma membrane by several stimuli including insulin, metformin, serotonin and cathecolamies [21–23]. In many cell systems, it has been demonstrated that GLUT1 activity can be acutely stimulated also by oxidative stress [24,25]. The mechanism by which cells react to oxidate stress has been extensively studied but not completely understood.
