Akt hyper-phosphorylation is associated with a loss of PTEN protein | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
This increase in PTEN protein appeared to parallel decreases in the amount of Akt-Thr308 phosphorylation which support the notion that a loss of PTEN protein with aging may contribute to the hyper-phosphorylation of Akt, and that acetaminophen intervention may function in reducing Akt phosphorylation by increasing PTEN levels. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Why aging decreases PTEN protein levels is not clear. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Our data also show that pPTEN levels were decreased with aging and that acetaminophen treatment restored pPTEN comparable to that observed in 6- and 27-month rats (Figure 6). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Therefore, aging-associated hyperglycemia and decreases in pPTEN level may result in decreased PTEN protein levels, which could act to increase the phosphorylation of Akt at Thr308 in aging muscle. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The data of the present study show that a loss of PTEN protein in aging may contribute to the increased phosphorylation of Akt, and that acetaminophen intervention can restore both PTEN and pPTEN levels. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Therefore, aging-associated hyperglycemia and decreases in pPTEN level may result in decreased PTEN protein levels, which could act to increase the phosphorylation of Akt at Thr308 in aging muscle. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
It is thought that high glucose levels can result in decreased PTEN expression and decreases in PTEN phosphatase activity [14]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Drosophila protein J-1/Parkinson protein 7 (DJ-1/PARK7), a negative regulator of PTEN tumor suppressor and a potential prognostic marker for cancer, was increased by >30-fold at 24 hours and the tumor suppressor-related protein, hyaluronate binding protein-1 (HABP-1), was increased >15 fold (Fig. 4D and Table 1) while transgelin (TAGLN2), was the most significantly down-regulated protein at >14-fold (Fig. 4D and Table 2). | |||||||||||||||
