Insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes is characterized by defects in muscle glucose uptake and hepatic overproduction of both glucose and lipids. These hepatic defects are perplexing because insulin normally suppresses glucose production and increases lipid synthesis in the liver. To understand the mechanisms for these seemingly paradoxical defects, we examined the activation of atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) and protein kinase B (PKB), two key signaling factors that operate downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and regulate various insulin-sensitive metabolic processes. Livers and muscles of three insulin-resistant rodent models were studied. In livers of type 2 diabetic non-obese Goto-Kakazaki rats and ob/ob-diabetic mice, the activation of PKB was impaired, whereas activation of aPKC was surprisingly maintained. In livers of non-diabetic high fat-fed mice, the activation of both aPKC and PKB was maintained. In contrast to the maintenance of aPKC activation in the liver, insulin activation of aPKC was impaired in muscles of Goto-Kakazaki-diabetic rats and ob/ob-diabetic and non-diabetic high fat-fed mice. These findings suggest that, at least in these rodent models, (a) defects in aPKC activation contribute importantly to skeletal muscle insulin resistance observed in both high fat feeding and type 2 diabetes; (b) insulin signaling defects in muscle are not necessarily accompanied by similar defects in liver; (c) defects in hepatic PKB activation occur in association with, and probably contribute importantly to, the development of overt diabetes; and (d) maintenance of hepatic aPKC activation may explain the continued effectiveness of insulin for stimulating certain metabolic actions in the liver.
