BACKGROUND: Insulin signaling regulates cardiac substrate utilization and is implicated in physiological adaptations of the heart. Alterations in the signaling response within the heart are believed to contribute to pathological conditions such as type-2 diabetes and heart failure. While extensively investigated in several metabolic organs using phosphoproteomic strategies, the signaling response elicited in cardiac tissue in general, and specifically in the specialized cardiomyocytes, has not yet been investigated to the same extent. METHODS: Insulin or vehicle was administered to male C57BL6/JRj mice via intravenous injection into the vena cava. Ventricular tissue was extracted and subjected to quantitative phosphoproteomics analysis to evaluate the insulin signaling response. To delineate the cardiomyocyte-specific response and investigate the role of Tbc1d4 in insulin signal transduction, cardiomyocytes from the hearts of cardiac and skeletal muscle-specific Tbc1d4 knockout mice, as well as from wildtype littermates, were studied. The phosphoproteomic studies involved isobaric peptide labeling with Tandem Mass Tags (TMT), enrichment for phosphorylated peptides, fractionation via micro-flow reversed-phase liquid chromatography, and high-resolution mass spectrometry measurements. RESULTS: We quantified 10,399 phosphorylated peptides from ventricular tissue and 12,739 from isolated cardiomyocytes, localizing to 3,232 and 3,128 unique proteins, respectively. In cardiac tissue, we identified 84 insulin-regulated phosphorylation events, including sites on the Insulin Receptor (InsrY1351, Y1175, Y1179, Y1180) itself as well as the Insulin receptor substrate protein 1 (Irs1S522, S526). Predicted kinases with increased activity in response to insulin stimulation included Rps6kb1, Akt1 and Mtor. Tbc1d4 emerged as a major phosphorylation target in cardiomyocytes. Despite limited impact on the global phosphorylation landscape, Tbc1d4 deficiency in cardiomyocytes attenuated insulin-induced Glut4 translocation and induced protein remodeling. We observed 15 proteins significantly regulated upon knockout of Tbc1d4. While Glut4 exhibited decreased protein abundance consequent to Tbc1d4-deficiency, Txnip levels were notably increased. Stimulation of wildtype cardiomyocytes with insulin led to the regulation of 262 significant phosphorylation events, predicted to be regulated by kinases such as Akt1, Mtor, Akt2, and Insr. In cardiomyocytes, the canonical insulin signaling response is elicited in addition to regulation on specialized cardiomyocyte proteins, such as Kcnj11Y12 and DspS2597. Details of all phosphorylation sites are provided. CONCLUSION: We present a first global outline of the insulin-induced phosphorylation signaling response in heart tissue and in isolated adult cardiomyocytes, detailing the specific residues with changed phosphorylation abundances. Our study marks an important step towards understanding the role of insulin signaling in cardiac diseases linked to insulin resistance.

Insulin resistance is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes, and exercise can improve insulin sensitivity. However, following exercise, high circulating fatty acid (FA) levels might counteract this. We hypothesized that such inhibition would be reduced by forcibly increasing carbohydrate oxidation through pharmacological activation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was examined with a crossover design in healthy young men (n = 8) in a previously exercised and a rested leg during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp 5 h after one-legged exercise with 1) infusion of saline, 2) infusion of intralipid imitating circulating FA levels during recovery from whole-body exercise, and 3) infusion of intralipid + oral PDC activator, dichloroacetate (DCA). Intralipid infusion reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by 19% in the previously exercised leg, which was not observed in the contralateral rested leg. Interestingly, this effect of intralipid in the exercised leg was abolished by DCA, which increased muscle PDC activity (130%) and flux (acetylcarnitine 130%) and decreased inhibitory phosphorylation of PDC on Ser293 (â¼40%) and Ser300 (â¼80%). Novel insight is provided into the regulatory interaction between glucose and lipid metabolism during exercise recovery. Coupling exercise and PDC flux activation upregulated the capacity for both glucose transport (exercise) and oxidation (DCA), which seems necessary to fully stimulate insulin-stimulated glucose uptake during recovery.
