Project description:The metabolic stress hormone FGF21 is highly expressed in exocrine pancreas, where its levels are increased by refeeding and chemically induced pancreatitis. However, its function in the exocrine pancreas remains unknown. Here, we show that FGF21 stimulates digestive enzyme secretion from pancreatic acinar cells through an autocrine/paracrine mechanism that requires signaling through a tyrosine kinase receptor complex composed of an FGF receptor and ?-Klotho. Mice lacking FGF21 accumulate zymogen granules and are susceptible to pancreatic ER stress, an effect that is reversed by administration of recombinant FGF21. Mice carrying an acinar cell-specific deletion of ?-Klotho also accumulate zymogen granules but are refractory to FGF21-stimulated secretion. Like the classical post-prandial secretagogue, cholecystokinin (CCK), FGF21 triggers intracellular calcium release via PLC-IP3R signaling. However, unlike CCK, FGF21 does not induce protein synthesis, thereby preventing protein accumulation. Thus, pancreatic FGF21 is a digestive enzyme secretagogue whose physiologic function is to maintain acinar cell proteostasis.

Project description:In rat pancreatic acinar cells, the Ca2+-mobilizing receptor-agonist, caerulein, at both maximal and submaximal concentrations, stimulated a rapid, transient, increase in [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [(1,4,5)IP3], followed by a slower, sustained, increase in [3H]inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [(1,3,4)IP3]. Neither activation of protein kinase C by phorbol dibutyrate nor prevention of the caerulein-stimulated elevation of cytosolic [Ca2+] significantly affected the pattern of formation of the two isomers of IP3. Although carbachol evoked an increase in cytosolic [Ca2+], it did not significantly stimulate [3H](1,4,5)IP3 accumulation, but did promote [3H](1,3,4)IP3 accumulation. Moreover, both carbachol and caerulein maintained hormone-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ pools in a Ca2+-depleted state after [3H](1,4,5)IP3 had returned to basal concentrations. One interpretation of these findings is that total cellular concentrations of [3H](1,4,5)IP3 may not accurately reflect the concentration of this putative mediator in biologically relevant compartments.

Project description:Previous studies showed that lithium, beginning at therapeutic plasma concentrations in the treatment of manic depression, increased the accumulation of second-messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] in cerebral cortex slices of guinea pig and rhesus monkey [Lee, Dixon, Reichman, Moummi, Los and Hokin (1992) Biochem. J. 282, 377-385; Dixon, Lee, Los and Hokin (1992) J. Neurochem. 59, 2332-2335; Dixon, Los and Hokin (1994) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 91, 8358-8362]. These studies have now been extended to a peripheral tissue, mouse pancreatic minilobules. In the presence of carbachol, concentrations of lithium from 1 to 20 mM sharply and progressively increased the accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate, followed by a decrease. Assay of these inositol polyphosphates by either the prelabelling technique or mass assay gave similar results. Atropine quenching of cholinergically stimulated pancreatic minilobules led to a rapid disappearance of Ins(1,4,5)P3. This disappearance was impeded by lithium. This suggested that the lithium-induced elevation in Ins(1,4,5)P3 was due to inhibition of the 5-phosphatase and, on the basis of the markedly elevated concentrations of inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] and inositol 1,4-bisphosphate in the presence of lithium, probably by feedback inhibition by these latter two compounds. An additional mechanism, i.e. a stimulatory effect of lithium on phospholipase C, cannot, however, be ruled out. The other reaction product of phospholipase C, inositol cyclic 1:2,4,5-trisphosphate, also increased in the presence of lithium. This may also be due to inhibition of the 5-phosphatase, which is the exclusive mechanism for removal of this compound. The effects of lithium on the accumulation of other inositol phosphates paralleled that of Ins(1,4,5)P3, with the exception of inositol 3,4-bisphosphate, which decreased. This was presumably due to the inhibition of Ins(1,3,4)P3 1-phosphatase by lithium. Unlike mouse cerebral cortex slices [Lee, Dixon, Reichman, Moummi, Los and Hokin (1992) Biochem. J. 282, 377-385], inositol supplementation was not required to demonstrate lithium-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation in mouse pancreatic minilobules. This indicates that inositol depletion sufficient to impair lithium-stimulated Ins(1,4,5)P3 accumulation does not occur in mouse pancreatic minilobules, even though an elevation of cytidine diphosphodiacylglycerol occurred, indicating some inositol depletion due to lithium. Elevation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 by lithium may be a general phenomenon in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues under non-rate-limiting concentrations of inositol.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that small interfering RNA knockdown and pharmacological inhibition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs) stimulate autophagy. We have investigated autophagy in chicken DT40 cell lines containing targeted deletions of all three IP(3)R isoforms (triple knock-out (TKO) cells). Using gel shifts of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 as a marker of autophagy, we find that TKO cells have enhanced basal autophagic flux even under nutrient-replete conditions. Stable DT40 cell lines derived from TKO cells containing the functionally inactive D2550A IP(3)R mutant did not suppress autophagy in the same manner as wild-type receptors. This suggests that the channel function of the receptor is important in its regulatory role in autophagy. There were no marked differences in the phosphorylation state of AMP-activated protein kinase, Akt, or mammalian target of rapamycin between wild-type and TKO cells. The amount of immunoprecipitated complexes of Bcl-2-Beclin-1 and Beclin-1-Vps34 were also not different between the two cell lines. The major difference noted was a substantially decreased mTORC1 kinase activity in TKO cells based on decreased phosphorylation of S6 kinase and 4E-BP1. The discharge of intracellular stores with thapsigargin stimulated mTORC1 activity (measured as S6 kinase phosphorylation) to a greater extent in wild-type than in TKO cells. We suggest that basal autophagic flux may be negatively regulated by IP(3)R-dependent Ca(2+) signals acting to maintain an elevated mTORC1 activity in wild-type cells and that Ca(2+) regulation of this enzyme is defective in TKO cells. The protective effect of a higher autophagic flux in cells lacking IP(3)Rs may play a role in the delayed apoptotic response observed in these cells.

Project description:Synthetic analogues of inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)), all of which included structures equivalent to the 4,5-bisphosphate of (1,4,5)IP(3), were used to probe the recognition properties of rat full-length type 1, 2 and 3 IP(3) receptors expressed in insect Spodoptera frugiperda 9 cells. Using equilibrium competition binding with [(3)H](1,4,5)IP(3) in Ca(2+)-free cytosol-like medium, the relative affinities of the receptor subtypes for (1,4,5)IP(3) were type 3 (K(d)=11+/-2 nM)>type 2 (K(d)=17+/-2 nM)>type 1 (K(d)=24+/-4 nM). (1,4,5)IP(3) binding was reversibly stimulated by increased pH, but the subtypes differed in their sensitivity to pH (type 1>type 2>type 3). For all three subtypes, the equatorial 6-hydroxy group of (1,4,5)IP(3) was essential for high-affinity binding, the equatorial 3-hydroxy group significantly improved affinity, and the axial 2-hydroxy group was insignificant; a 1-phosphate (or in its absence, a 2-phosphate) improved binding affinity. The subtypes differed in the extents to which they tolerated inversion of the 3-hydroxy group of (1,4,5)IP(3) (type 1>type 2>type 3), and this probably accounts for the selectivity of (1,4,6)IP(3) for type 1 receptors. They also differed in their tolerance of inversion, removal or substitution (by phosphate) of the 2-hydroxy group (types 2 and 3>type 1), hence the selectivity of (1,2,4,5)IP(4) for type 2 and 3 receptors. Removal of the 3-hydroxy group or its replacement by fluorine or CH(2)OH was best tolerated by type 3 receptors, and accounts for the selectivity of 3-deoxy(1,4,5)IP(3) for type 3 receptors. Our results provide the first systematic analysis of the recognition properties of IP(3) receptor subtypes and have identified the 2- and 3-positions of (1,4,5)IP(3) as key determinants of subtype selectivity.

Project description:Using a consensus sequence in inositol phosphate kinase, we have identified and cloned a 44-kDa mammalian inositol phosphate kinase with broader catalytic capacities than any other member of the family and which we designate mammalian inositol phosphate multikinase (mIPMK). By phosphorylating inositol 4,5-bisphosphate, mIPMK provides an alternative biosynthesis for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P(3)]. mIPMK also can form the pyrophosphate disphosphoinositol tetrakisphosphate (PP-InsP(4)) from InsP(5). Additionally, mIPMK forms InsP(4) from Ins(1,4,5)P(3) and InsP(5) from Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4).

Project description:Background and purposeAdenophostin A (AdA) is a potent agonist of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3) R). AdA shares with IP(3) the essential features of all IP(3) R agonists, namely structures equivalent to the 4,5-bisphosphate and 6-hydroxyl of IP(3) , but the basis of its increased affinity is unclear. Hitherto, the 2'-phosphate of AdA has been thought to provide a supra-optimal mimic of the 1-phosphate of IP(3) .Experimental approachWe examined the structural determinants of AdA binding to type 1 IP(3) R (IP(3) R1). Chemical synthesis and mutational analysis of IP(3) R1 were combined with (3) H-IP(3) binding to full-length IP(3) R1 and its N-terminal fragments, and Ca(2+) release assays from recombinant IP(3) R1 expressed in DT40 cells.Key resultsAdenophostin A is at least 12-fold more potent than IP(3) in functional assays, and the IP(3) -binding core (IBC, residues 224-604 of IP(3) R1) is sufficient for this high-affinity binding of AdA. Removal of the 2'-phosphate from AdA (to give 2'-dephospho-AdA) had significantly lesser effects on its affinity for the IBC than did removal of the 1-phosphate from IP(3) (to give inositol 4,5-bisphosphate). Mutation of the only residue (R568) that interacts directly with the 1-phosphate of IP(3) decreased similarly (by ~30-fold) the affinity for IP(3) and AdA, but mutating R504, which has been proposed to form a cation-π interaction with the adenine of AdA, more profoundly reduced the affinity of IP(3) R for AdA (353-fold) than for IP(3) (13-fold).Conclusions and implicationsThe 2'-phosphate of AdA is not a major determinant of its high affinity. R504 in the receptor, most likely via a cation-π interaction, contributes specifically to AdA binding.

Project description:Although type 1 diabetes (T1D) is primarily a disease of the pancreatic beta-cells, understanding of the disease-associated alterations in the whole pancreas could be important for the improved treatment or the prevention of the disease. We have characterized the whole-pancreas gene expression of patients with recently diagnosed T1D from the Diabetes Virus Detection (DiViD) study and non-diabetic controls. Furthermore, another parallel dataset of the whole pancreas and an additional dataset from the laser-captured pancreatic islets of the DiViD patients and non-diabetic organ donors were analyzed together with the original dataset to confirm the results and to get further insights into the potential disease-associated differences between the exocrine and the endocrine pancreas. First, higher expression of the core acinar cell genes, encoding for digestive enzymes, was detected in the whole pancreas of the DiViD patients when compared to non-diabetic controls. Second, In the pancreatic islets, upregulation of immune and inflammation related genes was observed in the DiViD patients when compared to non-diabetic controls, in line with earlier publications, while an opposite trend was observed for several immune and inflammation related genes at the whole pancreas tissue level. Third, strong downregulation of the regenerating gene family (REG) genes, linked to pancreatic islet growth and regeneration, was observed in the exocrine acinar cell dominated whole-pancreas data of the DiViD patients when compared with the non-diabetic controls. Fourth, analysis of unique features in the transcriptomes of each DiViD patient compared with the other DiViD patients, revealed elevated expression of central antiviral immune response genes in the whole-pancreas samples, but not in the pancreatic islets, of one DiViD patient. This difference in the extent of antiviral gene expression suggests different statuses of infection in the pancreas at the time of sampling between the DiViD patients, who were all enterovirus VP1+ in the islets by immunohistochemistry based on earlier studies. The observed features, indicating differences in the function, status and interplay between the exocrine and the endocrine pancreas of recent onset T1D patients, highlight the importance of studying both compartments for better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of T1D.

Project description:Although the involvement of type 1 (IP3R1) and type 2 (IP3R2) inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors in apoptosis induction has been well documented in different cancer cells and tissues, the function of type 3 IP3R (IP3R3) is still elusive. Therefore, in this work we focused on the role of IP3R3 in tumor cells in vitro and in vivo. We determined increased expression of this receptor in clear cell renal cell carcinoma compared to matched unaffected part of the kidney from the same patient. Thus, we hypothesized about different functions of IP3R3 compared to IP3R1 and IP3R2 in tumor cells. Silencing of IP3R1 prevented apoptosis induction in colorectal cancer DLD1 cells, ovarian cancer A2780 cells, and clear cell renal cell carcinoma RCC4 cells, compared to apoptosis in cells treated with scrambled siRNA. As expected, silencing of IP3R3 and subsequent apoptosis induction resulted in increased levels of apoptosis in all these cells. Further, we prepared a DLD1/IP3R3_del cell line using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing method. These cells were injected into nude mice and tumor's volume was compared with tumors induced by DLD1 cells. Lower volume of tumors originated from DLD1/IP3R3_del cells was observed after 12 days, compared to wild type DLD1 cells. Also, the migration of these cells was lesser compared to wild type DLD1 cells. Apoptosis under hypoxic conditions was more pronounced in DLD1/IP3R3_del cells than in DLD1 cells. These results clearly show that IP3R3 has proliferative and anti-apoptotic effect in tumor cells, on contrary to the pro-apoptotic effect of IP3R1.
