    Abstract:
    To clarify activation mechanisms of stress-activated protein kinase/C-Jun N-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK) during oxidative stress, the roles of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), concentration of intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i), and cyclic AMP-dependent kinase (PKA) in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced SAPK/JNK activation were examined in Chinese hamster V79 cells. SAPK/JNK was dose-dependently activated after H2O2 treatment (from 10 microM to 1 mM), and a PI 3-kinase inhibitor (wortmaninn), intracellular calcium chelator (BAPTA-AM), and PKA activator (dibutyl cyclic AMP and forskolin) inhibited this activation. An increase in [Ca2+], was observed after treatment with H2O2. Immunoprecipitation revealed that a PI 3-kinase regulatory subunit, p85alpha, was associated with insulin receptor substance 1 (IRS-1) phosphorylated by H2O2 treatment. Furthermore, the formation of this complex of p85alpha and phospho-IRS-1 was abolished by the presence of BAPTA-AM but not forskolin. These results indicated that the PI 3-kinase activated through phosphorylation of IRS-1 upstream of SAPK/JNK after H2O2 treatment of V79 cells and that [Ca2+]i was a regulation factor for phosphorylation of IRS-1.
