Hormones that affect energy metabolism

Langerhans’ islets in the pancreas produce insulin
and glucagon

A little bit of history: The purification of insulin—
the problem

Insulin secretion in the β-cell is controlled by
glucose and triggered by membrane depolarization
© Michael Palmer 2014
The sulfonylurea receptor controls an associated
potassium channel
© Michael Palmer 2014
KATP channels also regulate the tone of smooth
muscle cells
© Michael Palmer 2014
Tolbutamide promotes closing of the KATP channel

The insulin receptor is a receptor tyrosine kinase
© Michael Palmer 2014
Insulin receptor first phosphorylates itself and then
a number of insulin receptor substrate proteins

Insulin effects on glycogen synthesis
© Michael Palmer 2014
The role of insulin in glucose transport
© Michael Palmer 2014
Insulin promotes glucose uptake by increasing the
surface exposure of GLUT 4 transporters

Transcriptional regulation by insulin

Other hormones
© Michael Palmer 2014
Glucagon and epinephrine act via G-proteincoupled receptors
© Michael Palmer 2014
The glucagon and epinephrine receptors activate
adenylate cyclase and protein kinase A
© Michael Palmer 2014
Metabolic effects of protein kinase A
© Michael Palmer 2014
Glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones act on
nuclear hormone receptors to activate transcription
© Michael Palmer 2014
DNA binding by thyroid hormone receptors
© Michael Palmer 2014
Metabolic effects of glucocorticoid hormones
●
induction of enzymes for glycogen synthesis, glycogen
breakdown, and gluconeogenesis
●
induction of enzymes for protein breakdown, supplying
substrates for gluconeogenesis
●
induction of adrenergic receptors
…overall, glucocorticoids increase blood glucose
Glucocorticoid receptor agonists and antagonists
