The regulation of amino acid transport by insulin has been studied in cultured human fibroblasts. Among the six amino acid transport systems operating in cultured human fibroblasts, two systems (A and X-C) are strongly stimulated by insulin and four (ASC, X-AG, y+ and L) are essentially not sensitive to the presence of the hormone in the incubation medium. The hormonal stimulation of system A and system X-C became significant after 3 h of incubation and increased up to 12 h. The stimulatory effect was related to insulin concentration, with a half-maximal stimulation at 10(-9) M hormone concentration. Insulin enhanced transport activity by increasing the maximal velocity (Vmax) of transport, without significant changes in Km values.
