Tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNFα) released in the brain by HIV‐activated macrophages/microglia is suspected to compromise neuronal survival. Previously, we have demonstrated that activated receptor for insulin‐like growth factor I (IGF‐IR) protects neurons from TNFα‐induced neuronal damage (Wang et al. [ 2006] J. Neurosci. Res. 83:7–18). Because TNFα triggers phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS‐1) on serine residues (pS‐IRS‐1; Rui et al. [ 2001] J. Clin. Invest. 107:181–189), and pS‐IRS‐1 binds integrins (Reiss et al. [ 2001] Oncogene 20:490–500), we asked how these events affect neuronal processes. We show that β1‐integrin and pS‐IRS‐1 colocalize in PC12 cells and in primary cortical neurons. TNFα treatment elevated membrane‐associated pS‐IRS‐1, enhanced pS‐IRS‐1 interaction with β1‐integrin, and attenuated cell attachment to collagen IV. In contrast, IGF‐I inhibited pS‐IRS‐1–β1‐integrin complexes and improved cell attachment. The domain of IRS‐1 involved in β1‐integrin binding mapped between amino acids 426 and 740, and the expression of 426–740/IRS‐1 mutant attenuated neuronal outgrowth. Our results indicate that TNFα facilitates the interaction of pS‐IRS‐1 and β1‐integrin and destabilizes neuronal processes. IGF‐I counteracts TNFα‐mediated accumulation of pS‐IRS‐1–β1‐integrin complexes supporting the stability of neuronal processes. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
