The Id family of helix-loop-helix proteins is known to be involved in the proliferation and differentiation of several types of cells. The type 1 IGF receptor (IGF-IR) induces either proliferation or differentiation in 32D cells, a murine hemopoietic cell line, depending on the availability of the appropriate substrates for the receptor. We have previously reported that the IGF-IR regulates the expression of the Id2 gene in 32D cells. We now show that the IGF-IR controls the increase in Id2 gene expression through at least three pathways. These three pathways originate from the tyrosine residue at 950, a domain in the C-terminus, and the activation of the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) by the receptor. IRS-1 is the preponderant signal, and its effect on Id2 gene expression requires a functional phosphotyrosine binding domain. With wild-type IRS-1, Id2 gene expression is increased, even in those cells that express IGF-I receptors defective in Id2 signaling. Rapamycin, an inhibitor of p70^S6K, a downstream effector of IRS-1 signaling, partially inhibits (but does not completely abrogate) the increase in Id2 gene expression. A mutant IRS-1 with a deletion of the Pleckstrin domain is as effective as wild-type IRS-1 in up-regulating Id2 gene expression. In addition, it seems to increase the stability of p70^S6K. Our results indicate that the IGF-IR regulates Id2 gene expression through different pathways. At least in 32D cells, increased Id2 gene expression seems to correlate more with inhibition of differentiation than with proliferation.
