Oscillatory glucose flux in INS 1 pancreatic ? cells: a self-referencing microbiosensor study.

ABSTRACT: Signaling and insulin secretion in ? cells have been reported to demonstrate oscillatory modes, with abnormal oscillations associated with type 2 diabetes. We investigated cellular glucose influx in ? cells with a self-referencing (SR) microbiosensor based on nanomaterials with enhanced performance. Dose-response analyses with glucose and metabolic inhibition studies were used to study oscillatory patterns and transporter kinetics. For the first time, we report a stable and regular oscillatory uptake of glucose (averaged period 2.9±0.6 min), which corresponds well with an oscillator model. This oscillatory behavior is part of the feedback control pathway involving oxygen, cytosolic Ca(2+)/ATP, and insulin secretion (periodicity approximately 3 min). Glucose stimulation experiments show that the net Michaelis-Menten constant (6.1±1.5 mM) is in between GLUT2 and GLUT9. Phloretin inhibition experiments show an EC(50) value of 28±1.6 ?M phloretin for class I GLUT proteins and a concentration of 40±0.6 ?M phloretin caused maximum inhibition with residual nonoscillating flux, suggesting that the transporters not inhibited by phloretin are likely responsible for the remaining nonoscillatory uptake, and that impaired uptake via GLUT2 may be the cause of the oscillation loss in type 2 diabetes. Transporter studies using the SR microbiosensor will contribute to diabetes research and therapy development by exploring the nature of oscillatory transport mechanisms.

Project description:Yunvjian (YNJ) is a traditional Chinese medicine formula adopted to prevent and treat diabetes. Our previous results from animal experiments showed that YNJ decreased blood glucose. This study aimed to examine the effect of high glucose and high lipid (HG/HL) conditions on the proliferation and apoptosis of INS-1 cells and the possible protective mechanism of YNJ-medicated serum on INS-1 cells exposed to HG/HL conditions. INS-1 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium after being passaged. Then, INS-1 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and divided into five groups: control, HG/HL, HG/HL+5% YNJ-medicated serum, HG/HL+10% YNJ-medicated serum, and HG/HL+20% YNJ-medicated serum. MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to detect proliferation and apoptosis of INS-1 cells, respectively. Protein profiles of INS-1 cells were analyzed using a tandem mass tag (TMT) label-based quantitative proteomic approach. Western blotting was performed to verify the proteomic results. YNJ-medicated serum significantly promoted INS-1 cell proliferation and inhibited apoptosis. Proteomic results from the INS-1 cells in the control, HG/HL, and HG/HL+10% YNJ-medicated serum groups showed that 7,468 proteins were identified, of which 6,423 proteins were quantified. Compared with the HG/HL group,430 differential proteins were upregulated, and 671 were downregulated in the HG/HL+10% YNJ-medicated serum group. Compared with the control group, 711 differential proteins were upregulated and 455 were downregulated in the HG/HL group, whereas 10 differential proteins were upregulated and 9 were downregulated in the HG/HL+10% YNJ-medicated serum group. Furthermore, several proteins related to autophagy, including ATG3, ATG2B, GABARAP, WIPI2, and p62/SQSTM1, were verified by western blotting, and these results were consistent with the results obtained from the proteomics analysis. These results confirmed that the autophagy pathway is critical to glucolipotoxicity in INS-1 cells. YNJ-medicated serum exhibited a protective effect on INS-1 cells cultured under HG/HL conditions by regulating autophagy genes' expression and restoring the autophagic flux.
