One of insulin's effects is to stimulate specific mRNA synthesis. Treatment of H4IIE hepatoma cells with 0.01-1.0 nM insulin results in a maximum 10-15 fold increase in the accumulation of a specific mRNA (p33-mRNA) as measured with a cloned cDNA. Concanavalin A, a lectin known to mimic many of insulin's effects, also stimulates the accumulation of p33-mRNA. The effects of both insulin and Con A were blocked by the addition of two RNA synthesis inhibitors, actinomycin D or 5,6 dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-benzimidazole. We therefore suggest that insulin and concanavalin A act to stimulate p33-mRNA synthesis.
