We investigated the expression of the protooncogene c-fos in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and adipocytes in response to a variety of growth-promoting agents in normal cells and in cells preincubated with phorbol esters to deplete them of protein kinase C. There was a rapid accumulation of c-fos mRNA in fibroblasts and adipocytes treated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, fetal calf serum, bombesin, and insulin, especially in the adipocytes. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate pretreatment abolished the increase in c-fos mRNA due to additional phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate treatment and decreased but did not eliminate the ability of platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, fetal calf serum, bombesin, and insulin to stimulate c-fos mRNA. These data suggested that c-fos mRNA could be induced in serum-deprived 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and adipocytes by at least two separate pathways, one involving protein kinase C and the other independent of protein kinase C. In the very insulin-sensitive 3T3-L1 adipocytes, insulin rapidly and transiently increased c-fos expression (c-fos mRNA appeared by 15 min and disappeared after 60 min) via interaction with its own cellular receptor, rather than by interacting with receptors for one of the insulin-like growth factors. Cycloheximide treatment in combination with insulin or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate resulted in superinduction of c-fos mRNA. We conclude that insulin can rapidly stimulate c-fos mRNA accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and that part of the growth factor-stimulated increase in this mRNA that occurs in protein kinase C-deficient cells may be due to activation of a pathway similar or identical to that activated by insulin.

Insulin and growth factor effects on c-fos expression in normal and protein kinase C-deficient 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and adipocytes.
