Effects of diverse stimuli, including insulin, muscle contraction, and phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), were determined on phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling modules (c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase [JNK], p38 MAPK, and extracellular signal-related kinase [ERK1/2]) in skeletal muscle from lean and ob/ob mice. Insulin increased phosphorylation of JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 in isolated extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscle from lean mice in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Muscle contraction and PMA also elicited robust effects on these parallel MAPK modules. Insulin action on JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 phosphorylation was significantly impaired in EDL and soleus muscle from ob/ob mice. In contrast, muscle contraction-mediated JNK, p38 MAPK, and ERK1/2 phosphorylation was preserved. PMA effects on phosphorylation of JNK and ERK1/2 were normal in ob/ob mice, whereas effects on p38 MAPK were abolished. In conclusion, insulin, contraction, and PMA activate MAPK signaling in skeletal muscle. Insulin-mediated responses on MAPK signaling are impaired in skeletal muscle from ob/ob mice, whereas the effect of contraction is generally well preserved. In addition, PMA-induced phosphorylation of JNK and ERK1/2 are preserved, whereas p38 MAPK pathways are impaired in skeletal muscle from ob/ob mice. Thus, appropriate MAPK responses can be elicited in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle via an insulin-independent mechanism.
