Increased proliferation and altered cell cycle regulation in pancreatic stem cells derived from patients with congenital hyperinsulinism.

ABSTRACT: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is characterised by inappropriate insulin secretion causing profound hypoglycaemia and brain damage if inadequately controlled. Pancreatic tissue isolated from patients with diffuse CHI shows abnormal proliferation rates, the mechanisms of which are not fully resolved. Understanding cell proliferation in CHI may lead to new therapeutic options, alongside opportunities to manipulate ?-cell mass in patients with diabetes. We aimed to generate cell-lines from CHI pancreatic tissue to provide in vitro model systems for research. Three pancreatic mesenchymal stem cell-lines (CHIpMSC1-3) were derived from patients with CHI disease variants: focal, atypical and diffuse. All CHIpMSC lines demonstrated increased proliferation compared with control adult-derived pMSCs. Cell cycle alterations including increased CDK1 levels and decreased p27Kip1 nuclear localisation were observed in CHIpMSCs when compared to control pMSCs. In conclusion, CHIpMSCs are a useful in vitro model to further understand the cell cycle alterations leading to increased islet cell proliferation in CHI.

Project description:IntroductionCongenital hyperinsulinism is a rare inherited disease caused by mutations in genes responsible for β-cell's function in glucose hemostasis leading to profound and recurrent hypoglycemia. The incidence of the disease is about 1 in 50000 newborns. Mutations in at least 8 genes have been reported to cause congenital hyperinsulinism. Mutations in ABCC8 gene are the most common cause of the disease that account for approximately 40% of cases. Less frequently KCNJ11 gene mutations are responsible for the disease. Mutations in other genes such as HADH account for smaller fractions of cases. In nearly half of the cases the cause remains unknown.Case presentationDuring the period between 2005 and 2010, a total of six patients with persistent hyperinsulinism were investigated at Mofid Children's Hospital. In this study all of the patients had early onset hyperinsulinemia. Five patients had consanguineous parents. After failure of medical treatment in three patients, They were undergone pancreatectomy. Two diffuse types and one focal type had been recognized in pathological analysis of intra-operative frozen specimens of pancreas in these patients. Genetic analysis was performed using polymerase chain reaction followed by Sanger sequencing for ABCC8, KCNJ11and HADH genes. In five patients homozygous mutations in these genes were identified that indicated an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. In one patient a heterozygous mutation in ABCC8 was identified, indicating possible autosomal dominant inheritance of the disease.ConclusionsCongenital hyperinsulinism can have different inheritance pattern. Autosomal recessive inheritance is more common but less frequently autosomal dominant inheritance can be seen. It appears that mutations in ABCC8 gene can show both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant inheritance of the disease. PCR followed by Sanger sequencing proved to be an efficient method for mutation detection in three investigated genes. Despite early diagnosis, psychomotor retardation was seen in two patients.
