NT5C2 methylation regulatory interplay between DNMT1 and insulin receptor in type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Epigenetics alternation of non-genetic variation and genome-wide association study proven allelic variants may associate with insulin secretion in type 2 diabetes (T2D) development. We analyzed promoter DNA methylation array to evaluate the associated with increased susceptibility to T2D (30 cases, 10 controls) and found 1,091 gene hypermethylated in promoter regions. We performed the association study of T2D and found 698 single nucleotide polymorphisms in exon and promoter sites by using 2,270 subjects (560 cases, 1,710 controls). A comparison of DNA hypermethylation and gene silencing of mouse T2D results in our T2D patients' results showed that the 5'-nucleotidase, cytosolic II (NT5C2) and fucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8) genes were strongly associated with increased susceptibility to T2D. DNA hypermethylation in promoter regions reduced NT5C2 gene expression, but not FUT8 in T2D patients. NT5C2 protein expression was decreased in pancreatic β-cells from T2D mice. Transient transfection NT5C2 into RIN-m5F cells down-regulated DNA methyltransferase I (DNMT1) expression and up-regulation of the insulin receptor. Moreover, NT5C2 knockdown induced in DNMT1 overexpression and insulin receptor inhibition. Taken together, these results showed that NT5C2 epigenetically regulated insulin receptor in patients and mice with T2D, and maybe provide for T2D therapy strategy.

Interplay between the kinin B1 receptor and inducible nitric oxide synthase in insulin resistance.

Project description:Background and purposeKinins are vasoactive and pro-inflammatory peptides whose biological effects are mediated by two GPCRs, named B1 and B2 receptors. While the B2 receptor plays a protective role in the cardiovascular system via the activation of endothelial NOS, the B1 receptor is associated with vascular inflammation, insulin resistance and diabetic complications. Because the B1 receptor is a potent activator of the inducible form of NOS (iNOS), this study has addressed the role of iNOS in the deleterious effects of B1 receptors in insulin resistance.Experimental approachMale Sprague-Dawley rats (50-75 g) had free access to a drinking solution containing 10% d-glucose or tap water (control) for 9 weeks. During the last week, a selective iNOS inhibitor (1400W, 1 mg·kg(-1) twice daily) or its vehicle was administered s.c.Key resultsProlonged glucose treatment caused insulin resistance and several hallmarks of type 2 diabetes. Whereas the treatment with 1400W had no impact on the elevated systolic blood pressure and leptin levels in glucose-fed rats, it significantly reversed or attenuated hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinaemia, insulin resistance (HOMA index), body weight gain, peroxynitrite formation (nitrotyrosine expression) and the up-regulation of biomarkers of inflammation (B1 receptor, carboxypeptidase M, iNOS and IL-1β) in renal cortex and aorta and to some extent in the liver.Conclusions and implicationsPharmacological blockade of iNOS prevents the formation of peroxynitrite, which amplifies the pro-inflammatory effects of B1 receptors through a positive feedback mechanism. Hence, targeting iNOS can prevent the deleterious effects of B1 receptors in insulin resistance and peripheral inflammation.

Mechanistic interplay between ceramide and insulin resistance.

Project description:Recent research adds to a growing body of literature on the essential role of ceramides in glucose homeostasis and insulin signaling, while the mechanistic interplay between various components of ceramide metabolism remains to be quantified. We present an extended model of C16:0 ceramide production through both the de novo synthesis and the salvage pathways. We verify our model with a combination of published models and independent experimental data. In silico experiments of the behavior of ceramide and related bioactive lipids in accordance with the observed transcriptomic changes in obese/diabetic murine macrophages at 5 and 16 weeks support the observation of insulin resistance only at the later phase. Our analysis suggests the pivotal role of ceramide synthase, serine palmitoyltransferase and dihydroceramide desaturase involved in the de novo synthesis and the salvage pathways in influencing insulin resistance versus its regulation.

Regulatory Interplay between miR-181a-5p and Estrogen Receptor Signaling Cascade in Breast Cancer.

Project description:The efficacy and side effects of endocrine therapy in breast cancer (BC) depend largely on estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) expression, the specific drug administered, and treatment scheduling. Although the benefits of endocrine therapy outweigh any adverse effects in the initial stages of BC, later- or advanced-stage tumors acquire resistance to treatments. The mechanisms underlying tumor resistance to therapy are still not well understood, posing a major challenge for BC patient care. Epigenetic regulation and miRNA expression may be involved in the switch from a treatment-sensitive to a treatment-resistant state and could provide a valid therapeutic strategy for ERα negative BC. Here, a hybrid lysine-specific histone demethylase inhibitor, MC3324, displaying selective estrogen receptor down-regulator-like activities in BC, was used to highlight the interplay between epigenetic and ERα signaling. MC3324 anticancer action is mediated by microRNA (miRNA) expression regulation, indicating an innovative function for this molecule. Integrated analysis suggests a crosstalk between estrogen signaling, ERα interactors, miRNAs, and their putative targets. Specifically, miR-181a-5p expression is regulated by MC3324 and has an impact on cellular levels of ERα. A comparison of breast tumor versus healthy mammary tissues confirmed the important role of miR-181a-5p in ERα regulation and points to its putative predictive function in BC therapy.

Insulin gene promoter methylation status in Greek children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes.

Project description:The insulin (INS) gene is the one of the most important genes involved in the pathogenesis of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) after the Major Histocompatibility Complex genes. Studies addressing the issue of hyper- or hypo-methylation status of the INS gene promoter have reported inconsistent results. The majority of studies showed hypomethylation; however a few studies have shown hypermethylation at specific cytosine-guanosine (CpG) sites in the promoter region of the INS gene. The aim of the present study was to analyze the methylation status of the promoter region of the INS gene in Greek children and adolescents with T1D. A total of 20 T1D participants (mean diabetes duration of 6.15±4.12 years) and 20 age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled in the present study. DNA was isolated from whole blood samples, modified using sodium bisulfite and analyzed using PCR and electrophoresis. DNA was then pooled with highly reactive supermagnetic beads at similar molar quantities, submitted for library construction and finally sequenced using next-generation sequencing. The methylation profile at 10 CpG sites around the transcription start site (TSS) of the INS promoter was analysed and expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. The overall mean methylation in patients with T1D did not differ compared with the healthy controls. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in hypermethylation at position -345 (P=0.02), while a trend (P=0.06) at position -102 was observed. According to the results of the present study, increased methylation in the INS gene promoter at specific CpG sites around the TSS were already present in childhood T1D. These data may possibly serve as a guide towards the identification of a methylation pattern for detection of development of T1D in genetically predisposed children.

Interplay of Placental DNA Methylation and Maternal Insulin Sensitivity in Pregnancy.

Project description:The placenta participates in maternal insulin sensitivity changes during pregnancy; however, mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated associations between maternal insulin sensitivity and placental DNA methylation markers across the genome. We analyzed data from 430 mother-offspring dyads in the Gen3G cohort. All women underwent 75-g oral glucose tolerance tests at ∼26 weeks of gestation; we used glucose and insulin measures to estimate insulin sensitivity (Matsuda index). At delivery, we collected samples from placenta (fetal side) and measured DNA methylation using Illumina EPIC arrays. Using linear regression models to quantify associations at 720,077 cytosine-guanine dinucleotides (CpGs), with adjustment for maternal age, gravidity, smoking, BMI, child sex, and gestational age at delivery, we identified 188 CpG sites where placental DNA methylation was associated with Matsuda index (P < 6.94 × 10-8). Among genes annotated to these 188 CpGs, we found enrichment in targets for miRNAs, in histone modifications, and in parent-of-origin DNA methylation including the H19/MIR675 locus (paternally imprinted). We identified 12 known placenta imprinted genes, including KCNQ1 Mendelian randomization analyses revealed five loci where placenta DNA methylation may causally influence maternal insulin sensitivity, including the maternally imprinted gene DLGAP2. Our results suggest that placental DNA methylation is fundamentally linked to the regulation of maternal insulin sensitivity in pregnancy.

MicroRNA-152 mediates DNMT1-regulated DNA methylation in the estrogen receptor ? gene.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Estrogen receptor ? (ER?) has been shown to protect against atherosclerosis. Methylation of the ER? gene can reduce ER? expression leading to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. Recently, microRNAs have been found to regulate DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and thus control methylation status in several genes. We first searched for microRNAs involved in DNMT-associated DNA methylation in the ER? gene. We also tested whether statin and a traditional Chinese medicine (San-Huang-Xie-Xin-Tang, SHXXT) could exert a therapeutic effect on microRNA, DNMT and ER? methylation. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: The ER? expression was decreased and ER? methylation was increased in LPS-treated human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) and the aorta from rats under a high-fat diet. MicroRNA-152 was found to be down regulated in the LPS-treated HASMCs. We validated that microRNA-152 can knock down DNMT1 in HASMCs leading to hypermethylation of the ER? gene. Statin had no effect on microRNA-152, DNMT1 or ER? expression. On the contrary, SHXXT could restore microRNA-152, decrease DNMT1 and increase ER? expression in both cellular and animal studies. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: The present study showed that microRNA-152 decreases under the pro-atherosclerotic conditions. The reduced microRNA-152 can lose an inhibitory effect on DNA methyltransferase, which leads to hypermethylation of the ER? gene and a decrease of ER? level. Although statin can not reverse these cascade proatherosclerotic changes, the SHXXT shows a promising effect to inhibit this unwanted signaling pathway.

The Interplay Between Diet and the Epigenome in the Pathogenesis of Type-1 Diabetes.

Project description:The autoimmune disease, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), results in the destruction of pancreatic β-cells, and the International Diabetes Federation reports that its incidence is increasing worldwide. T1DM is a complex disease due to the interaction between genetic and environmental factors. Certain dietary patterns and nutrients are known to cause epigenetic modifications in physiological conditions and diseases. However, the interplay between diet and epigenetics is not yet well-understood in the context of T1DM. Several studies have described epigenetic mechanisms involved in the autoimmune reactions that destroy the β-cells, but few explored diet components as potential triggers for epigenetic modifications. Clarifying the link between diet and epigenome can provide new insights into the pathogenesis of T1DM, potentially leading to new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. In this mini review, we shed light on the influence of the diet-epigenome axis on the pathophysiology of T1DM.

Gene-lifestyle interplay in type 2 diabetes.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is widespread, affecting the health of hundreds of millions worldwide. The disease results from the complex interplay of lifestyle factors acting on a backdrop of inherited DNA risk variants. Detecting and understanding biomarkers, whether genotypes or other downstream biological features that dictate a person's phenotypic response to different lifestyle exposures, may have tremendous utility in the prevention of T2D. Here, we explore (i) evidence of how human genetic adaptation to diverse local environments might interact with lifestyle factors in T2D, (ii) the key challenges facing the research area of gene×lifestyle interactions in T2D, and (iii) the solutions that might be pursued in future studies. Overall, many preliminary examples of such interactions exist, but none is sufficient to have a major impact on clinical decision making. Future studies, integrating genetics and other biological markers into regulatory networks, are likely to be necessary to facilitate the integration of genomics into lifestyle medicine in T2D.

Insulin receptor based lymphocyte trafficking in the progression of type 1 diabetes.

Project description:The insulin receptor (IR) is a transmembrane receptor which recognizes and binds the hormone insulin. We describe two models that were devised to explore the role of IR over-expression on T-lymphocytes and their chemotactic motility in the progression of type 1 diabetes. FVB/NJ-CD3-3×FLAG-mIR/MFM mice were generated to selectively over-express 3×FLAG tagged murine IR in T-lymphocytes via an engineered CD3 enhancer and promoter construct. Insertion of the 3×FLAG-mIR transgene into FVB/NJ mice, a known non-autoimmune prone strain, lead to a minor population of detectable 3×FLAG-mIR tagged T-lymphocytes in peripheral blood and the presence of a few lymphocytes in the pancreas of the Tg+/- compared to age matched Tg-/- control mice. In order to induce stronger murine IR over-expression then what was observed with the CD3 enhancer promoter construct, a second system utilizing the strong CAG viral promoter was generated. This system induces cell specific IR over-expression upon Cre-Lox recombination to afford functional 3×FLAG tagged murine IR with an internal eGFP reporter. The pPNTlox2-3×FLAG-mIR plasmid was constructed and validated in HEK-Cre-RFP cells to ensure selective Cre recombinase based 3×FLAG-mIR expression, receptor ligand affinity towards insulin, and functional initiation of signal transduction upon insulin stimulation.
