| Abstract | Incubating 3T3-L1 adipocytes with forskolin, which increases intracellular cAMP by activating adenylate cyclase, mimicked rapamycin by attenuating the effect of insulin on stimulating the phosphorylation of four (S/T)P sites in PHAS-I, a downstream target of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. To investigate the hypothesis that increasing cAMP inhibits mTOR, the protein kinase activity of mTOR was measured in an immune complex assay with recombinant PHAS-I as substrate. Both forskolin and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3′-5′-monophosphate (CPT-cAMP) prevented the activation of mTOR by insulin in adipocytes, but neither agent affected mTOR activity when added directly to the immunopurified protein. In contrast, the cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor, theophylline, inhibited mTOR activity not only when added to intact adipocytes but also when added to immunopurified mTOR in vitro, demonstrating that certain methylxanthines are able to inhibit mTOR independently of increasing cAMP. Forskolin and CPT-cAMP blocked the effect of insulin on increasing mTOR phosphorylation, which was assessed using mTAb1, an antibody whose binding is inhibited by phosphorylation of mTOR. Although the mTAb1 epitope contains a consensus site for protein kinase B, neither agent inhibited the activation of protein kinase B produced by insulin. These findings support the interpretation that increasing cAMP attenuates the effects of insulin on PHAS-I, p70S6K, and other downstream targets of the mTOR signaling pathway by inhibiting the phosphorylation and activation of mTOR. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
