In multicellular organisms, constituent cells depend on
extracellular signals for growth, proliferation, and survival. When cells are withdrawn from growth factors, they undergo apoptosis. Expression of constitutively active forms of the serine/threonine kinase Akt/PKB can prevent apoptosis upon growth factor withdrawal. Akt-mediated survival depends in part on the maintenance of glucose metabolism, suggesting that reduced glucose utilization contributes to
growth factor withdrawal-induced death. However, it is unclear how
restricting access to extracellular glucose alone would lead to the
metabolic collapse observed after growth factor withdrawal. We report
herein that growth factor withdrawal results in the loss of surface
transporters for not only glucose but also amino acids, low-density
lipoprotein, and iron. This coordinated decline in transporters
and receptors for extracellular molecules creates a catabolic state
characterized by atrophy and a decline in the mitochondrial membrane
potential. Activated forms of Akt maintained these transporters on the
cell surface in the absence of growth factor through an mTOR-dependent
mechanism. The mTOR inhibitor rapamycin diminished Akt-mediated
increases in cell size, mitochondrial membrane potential, and cell
survival. These results suggest that growth factors control cellular
growth and survival by regulating cellular access to extracellular
nutrients in part by modulating the activity of Akt and mTOR.
