Project description:Objective: Redox signaling mediated by reversible oxidative cysteine thiol modifications is crucial for driving cellular adaptation to dynamic environmental changes, maintaining homeostasis, and ensuring proper function. This is particularly critical in pancreatic β-cells, which are highly metabolically active and play a specialized role in whole organism glucose homeostasis. Glucose stimulation in β-cells triggers signals leading to insulin secretion, including changes in ATP/ADP ratio and intracellular calcium levels. Additionally, lipid metabolism and reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling are essential for β-cell function and health. Methods: We employed IodoTMT isobaric labeling combined with tandem mass spectrometry to elucidate redox signaling pathways in pancreatic β-cells. Results: Glucose stimulation significantly increases ROS levels in β-cells, leading to targeted reversible oxidation of proteins involved in key metabolic pathways such as glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, pyruvate metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and insulin secretion. Furthermore, the glucose-induced increase in reversible cysteine oxidation correlates with the presence of other post-translational modifications, including acetylation and phosphorylation. Conclusions: Proper functioning of pancreatic β-cell metabolism relies on fine-tuned regulation, achieved through a sophisticated system of diverse post-translational modifications that modulate protein functions. Our findings demonstrate that glucose induces the production of ROS in pancreatic β-cells, leading to targeted reversible oxidative modifications of proteins. Furthermore, protein activity is modulated by acetylation and phosphorylation, highlighting the complexity of the regulatory mechanisms in β-cell function.

Glucose sensing in the pancreatic beta cell: a computational systems analysis.
Fridlyand LE, Philipson LH.Theor Biol Med Model.2010 May 24;7:15.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND:
Pancreatic beta-cells respond to rising blood glucose by increasing oxidative metabolism, leading to an increased ATP/ADP ratio in the cytoplasm. This leads to a closure of KATP channels, depolarization of the plasma membrane, influx of calcium and the eventual secretion of insulin. Such mechanism suggests that beta-cell metabolism should have a functional regulation specific to secretion, as opposed to coupling to contraction. The goal of this work is to uncover contributions of the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial processes in this secretory coupling mechanism using mathematical modeling in a systems biology approach.
METHODS:
We describe a mathematical model of beta-cell sensitivity to glucose. The cytoplasmic part of the model includes equations describing glucokinase, glycolysis, pyruvate reduction, NADH and ATP production and consumption. The mitochondrial part begins with production of NADH, which is regulated by pyruvate dehydrogenase. NADH is used in the electron transport chain to establish a proton motive force, driving the F1F0 ATPase. Redox shuttles and mitochondrial Ca2+ handling were also modeled.
RESULTS:
The model correctly predicts changes in the ATP/ADP ratio, Ca2+ and other metabolic parameters in response to changes in substrate delivery at steady-state and during cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations. Our analysis of the model simulations suggests that the mitochondrial membrane potential should be relatively lower in beta cells compared with other cell types to permit precise mitochondrial regulation of the cytoplasmic ATP/ADP ratio. This key difference may follow from a relative reduction in respiratory activity. The model demonstrates how activity of lactate dehydrogenase, uncoupling proteins and the redox shuttles can regulate beta-cell function in concert; that independent oscillations of cytoplasmic Ca2+ can lead to slow coupled metabolic oscillations; and that the relatively low production rate of reactive oxygen species in beta-cells under physiological conditions is a consequence of the relatively decreased mitochondrial membrane potential.
CONCLUSION:
This comprehensive model predicts a special role for mitochondrial control mechanisms in insulin secretion and ROS generation in the beta cell. The model can be used for testing and generating control hypotheses and will help to provide a more complete understanding of beta-cell glucose-sensing central to the physiology and pathology of pancreatic beta-cells.

Project description:Pancreatic islets adapt to the increase in insulin demand during pregnancy by up-regulating beta cell proliferation, insulin synthesis, and lowering the threshold of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. In vitro studies suggest that pregnancy hormones, such as placental lactogens and prolactin, both act through the prolactin receptor, are required for these adaptation. Furhtermore, we found that transgenic mice with heterogenous prolactin receptor null mutation are glucose intolerant, with a lower beta-cell mass and lower insulin levels. The goal here is to discover novel targets of prolactin receptor signaling in pancreatic beta cells during pregnancy.

Project description:Insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells is essential for glucose homeostasis. An insufficient response to the demand for insulin results in diabetes. We previously showed that β-cell-specific deletion of Zfp148 (β-Zfp148KO) improves glucose tolerance and insulin secretion in mice. These RNA sequencing data show pathways altered in the β-Zfp148KO consistent with altered PEP cycling and improved insulin secretion responses.

Project description:Objective: Histone deacetylases are epigenetic regulators known to control gene transcription in various tissues. A member of this family, histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3), has been shown to regulate metabolic genes. Cell culture studies with HDAC-specific inhibitors and siRNA suggest that HDAC3 plays a role in pancreatic β-cell function, but a recent genetic study in mice has been contradictory. Here we address the functional role of HDAC3 in β-cells of adult mice. Methods: An HDAC3 β-cell specific knockout was generated in adult MIP-CreERT transgenic mice using the Cre-loxP system. Induction of HDAC3 deletion was initiated at 8 weeks of age with administration of tamoxifen in corn oil (2 mg/day for 5 days). Mice were assayed for glucose tolerance, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and islet function 2 weeks after induction of the knockout. Transcriptional functions of HDAC3 were assessed by ChIP-seq as well as RNA-seq comparing control and -cell knockout islets. Results: HDAC3 β-cell specific knockout (HDAC3βKO) did not increase total pancreatic insulin content or β-cell mass. However, HDAC3βKO mice demonstrated markedly improved glucose tolerance. This improved glucose metabolism coincided with increased basal and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo as well as in isolated islets. Cistromic and transcriptomic analyses of pancreatic islets revealed that HDAC3 regulates multiple genes that contribute to glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Conclusions: HDAC3 plays an important role in regulating insulin secretion in vivo and therapeutic intervention may improve glucose homeostasis.

Project description:The NF-κB pathway is a master regulator of inflammatory processes and is implicated in insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell dysfunction in the metabolic syndrome. While canonical NF-κB signaling is well studied, there is little information on the divergent non-canonical NF-κB pathway in the context of pancreatic islet dysfunction in diabetes. Here, we demonstrate that pharmacological activation of the non-canonical NF-κB inducing kinase (NIK) disrupts glucose homeostasis in zebrafish in vivo. Further, we identify NIK as a critical negative regulator of beta cell function as pharmacological NIK activation results in impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in mouse and human islets. NIK levels are elevated in pancreatic islets isolated from diet-induced obese (DIO) mice, which exhibit increased processing of non-canonical NF-κB components p100 to p52, and accumulation of RelB. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), two ligands associated with diabetes, induce NIK in islets. Mice with constitutive beta cell intrinsic NIK activation present impaired insulin secretion with DIO. NIK activation triggers the non-canonical NF-κB transcriptional network to induce genes identified in human type 2 diabetes genome-wide association studies linked to beta cell failure. These studies reveal that NIK contributes a central mechanism for beta cell failure in diet-induced obesity. We identify a role for Nuclear Factor inducing κB (NIK) in pancreatic beta cell failure. NIK activation disrupts glucose homeostasis in zebrafish in vivo and impairs glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in mouse and human islets in vitro. NIK activation also perturbs beta cell insulin secretion in a diet-induced obesity mouse model. These studies reveal that NIK contributes a central mechanism for beta cell failure in obesity. To uncover the role of NIK in pancreatic beta cells, we performed a gene expression microarray analysis comparing pancreatic islets with constitutive beta cell intrinsicNIK activation from the 16 week old mice (beta cell specific TRAF2 and TRAF2 knockout mice) to their controls (n=3 per group).

Project description:Pancreatic β cell dysfunction greatly contributes to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. MiR-21 has been shown to be induced in the islets of glucose intolerant patients and type 2 diabetic mice. However, the role of miR-21 in the regulation of pancreatic β cell function remains largely elusive. In the current study, we studied the pathway by which miR-21 regulates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion utilizing mice lacking miR-21 in their β cells (miR-21βKO). We found that miR-21βKO mice developed glucose intolerance due to impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Mechanistic studies revealed that miR-21 enhances glucose uptake and subsequently promotes insulin secretion by up-regulating Glut2 expression in a miR-21-Pdcd4-AP-1 dependent pathway. Over-expression of Glut2 in knockout islets resulted in rescue of the impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Furthermore, we demonstrated that delivery of miR-21 into the pancreas of type 2 diabetic db/db mice is able to promote Glut2 expression and significantly reduce blood glucose level. Taking together, our results reveal that miR-21 in islet β cell promotes insulin secretion and support a role for miR-21 in the adaptation of pancreatic β cell function in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Epidemiological evidence has identified an association between breast cancer (BC) and systemic dysregulation of glucose metabolism. However, how BC influences glucose homeostasis remains unknown. Here we show that BC-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) suppress pancreatic endocrine secretion to systemically reset glucose homeostasis. In pancreatic β-cells, miR-122 delivered in BC-derived EVs targets PKM to suppress glycolysis and ATP-dependent insulin exocytosis. Mice receiving high-miR-122 EVs or bearing BC xenograft tumors, but not those with tumors deficient in EV secretion or miR-122, exhibit suppressed insulin secretion, enhanced endogenous glucose production, impaired glucose tolerance, and hyperglycemia. Compared to non-cancer controls, BC patients have higher levels of EV-encapsulated miR-122 and fasting glucose but lower insulin levels in blood; the miR-122 levels are positively associated with glucose and negatively associated with insulin. This EV-mediated glucose reallocation at the whole-body level may contribute to tumor growth and progression, as well as higher incidence of diabetes in BC patients.
