ABSTRACT: This model is from the article: Temporal Coding of Insulin Action through Multiplexing of the AKT Pathway. Kubota H, Noguchi R, Toyoshima Y, Ozaki Y, Uda S, Watanabe K, Ogawa W, Kuroda S. Mol Cell. 2012 Jun 29;46(6):820-32. 22633957 , Abstract: One of the unique characteristics of cellular signaling pathways is that a common signaling pathway can selectively regulate multiple cellular functions of a hormone; however, this selective downstream control through a common signaling pathway is poorly understood. Here we show that the insulin-dependent AKT pathway uses temporal patterns multiplexing for selective regulation of downstream molecules. Pulse and sustained insulin stimulations were simultaneously encoded into transient and sustained AKT phosphorylation, respectively. The downstream molecules, including ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), and glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β) selectively decoded transient, sustained, and both transient and sustained AKT phosphorylation, respectively. Selective downstream decoding is mediated by the molecules' network structures and kinetics. Our results demonstrate that the AKT pathway can multiplex distinct patterns of blood insulin, such as pulse-like additional and sustained-like basal secretions, and the downstream molecules selectively decode secretion patterns of insulin.

Project description:NGF dependent Akt pathway model made by Kazuhiro A. Fujita. This is the NGF dependent Akt pathway model described in: Decoupling of receptor and downstream signals in the Akt pathway by its low-pass filter characteristics. Fujita KA, Toyoshima Y, Uda S, Ozaki Y, Kubota H, and Kuroda S. Sci Signal. 2010 Jul 27;3(132):ra56. PMID: 20664065 ; DOI: 10.1126/scisignal.2000810 Abstract: In cellular signal transduction, the information in an external stimulus is encoded in temporal patterns in the activities of signaling molecules; for example, pulses of a stimulus may produce an increasing response or may produce pulsatile responses in the signaling molecules. Here, we show how the Akt pathway, which is involved in cell growth, specifically transmits temporal information contained in upstream signals to downstream effectors. We modeled the epidermal growth factor (EGF)–dependent Akt pathway in PC12 cells on the basis of experimental results. We obtained counterintuitive results indicating that the sizes of the peak amplitudes of receptor and downstream effector phosphorylation were decoupled; weak, sustained EGF receptor (EGFR) phosphorylation, rather than strong, transient phosphorylation, strongly induced phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6, a molecule downstream of Akt. Using frequency response analysis, we found that a three-component Akt pathway exhibited the property of a low-pass filter and that this property could explain decoupling of the peak amplitudes of receptor phosphorylation and that of downstream effectors. Furthermore, we found that lapatinib, an EGFR inhibitor used as an anticancer drug, converted strong, transient Akt phosphorylation into weak, sustained Akt phosphorylation, and, because of the low-pass filter characteristics of the Akt pathway, this led to stronger S6 phosphorylation than occurred in the absence of the inhibitor. Thus, an EGFR inhibitor can potentially act as a downstream activator of some effectors. The different versions of input, step, pulse and ramp, can be simulated using the parameters NGF_conc_pulse , NGF_conc_step and NGF_conc_ramp . Depending on which one is set unequal to 0, either a continous pulse with value NGF_conc_pulse , a 60 second step with NGF_conc_step or a signal increasing from 0 to NGF_conc_pulse over a time periode of 3600 seconds are used as input. In case more than one parameter is set to values greater than 0 these input profiles are added to each other. The pulse time and the time over which the ramp input increases can be set by pulse_time and ramp_time . This model originates from BioModels Database: A Database of Annotated Published Models.
