Project description:Meg3 is a long non-coding RNA. It's target genes are unknown. The mouse pancreatic beta cell line MIN6-4N was used to assess the expression of genes upon stable Meg3 overexpression Stable cell lines were isolated that have integated pcDNA3.1 or pcDNA3.1-mMeg3.The cells were processed for RNA isolation. The level of Meg3 expression was assessed by RT-PCR. RNA preps were used for microarray analysis.

Project description:Hlxb9 is a differentiation factor important for neuronal, and pancreatic beta cell differentiation. It is a transcription factor that represses transcription. It's target genes are unknown. The mouse pancreatic beta cell line MIN6 was used to assess the expression of genes de-repressed upon Hlxb9 knockdown.

Project description:We have shown that increased β-cell proliferation in functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (insulinomas) correlated with reduced expression of the long non-coding RNA Meg3 and increased expression of the oncogenic receptor c-Met. To investigate the target binding sites of Meg3 in and around the c-Met gene, we did ChIRP-Seq using biotinylated probes from the mouse Meg3 RNA sequence. This would help us better understand how Meg3 regulates ithe expression of c-Met to control β-cell proliferation in insulinoma cells.

Project description:Transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulatory networks play a crucial role in the maintenance and adaptation of pancreatic beta-cell function. In this study we show that the levels of the prototypic neuroendocrine miRNA-7 are regulated in islets of obese, diabetic and aged mouse models. Using gain- and loss-of-function models we demonstrate that miR-7 regulates crucial members of the endocrine pancreatic transcriptional network controlling differentiation and insulin synthesis. Importantly, it also directly regulates key proteins in the insulin granule secretory machinery. These results reveal an interconnecting miR-7 genomic circuit that influences beta-cell differentiation, insulin synthesis and release and define a role for miR-7 as an endocrine checkpoint to stabilize beta-cell function during metabolic stress. These findings have implications for miR-7 inhibitors as potential therapies for type 2 diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. Either miR-7a2 or miR-7b were over-expressed in MIN6 cells using an adenoviral vector. The miR-7a infection was performed in duplicates. In addition, a GFP over-expression in MIN6 using the same viral vector served as control. We also explored the consequence of miR-7a2 deletion in pancreatic beta-cells by generating a beta-cells specific miR-7a2 knock-out using the Lox/Cre system in a C57BL/6 background. We profiled gene expression in mutant and wild-type (control) islets.

Project description:Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is one of the most common serine/threonine phosphatases in mammalian cells and primarily functions to regulate cell signaling, glycolipid metabolism, and apoptosis. Its PP2A catalytic subunit (PP2Ac) plays an important role in its function. Nonetheless, at present, there are only a few reports on the regulatory role of PP2Ac in pancreatic β-cells under lipotoxicity. Mouse pancreatic insulinoma (MIN6) cells were transfected by lentiviruses to generate PP2Ac knockdown cells and incubated with palmitate (PA) to establish the lipotoxicity model. Serine/Threonine Phosphatase Assay System kit, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western Blotting (WB) and other techniques were used to measure PP2A activity, cell viability, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and insulin secretion. An animal model of lipotoxicity with knockdown of PP2Ac was established by a high-fat diet (HFD) after using adeno-associated viruses (AAV) to interfere with PP2Ac expression in mouse pancreatic tissues. Serine/Threonine Phosphatase Assay System kit, ELISA, pancreatic tissue immunofluorescence and other techniques were used to measure PP2A activity in pancreatic tissue, serum insulin level and the proliferation of mouse pancreatic β-cells. We found that PP2Ac knockdown inhibited lipotoxicity-induced PP2A hyperactivation, increased the resistance of pancreatic β-cells to lipotoxicity, decreased PA-induced apoptosis in MIN6 cells, protected the function of both the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, and improved insulin secretion. By mRNA sequencing and Western blotting analysis, we hypothesized that the protective effects of PP2Ac knockdown in MIN6 cells may be mediated by the MAPK pathway. Moreover, the results obtained from animal experiments suggest that the specific knockdown of pancreatic PP2Ac could effectively attenuate HFD-induced insulin resistance and reduce the compensatory proliferation of pancreatic β-cells in mice. The present study revealed the effects and mechanisms of interfering with PP2Ac gene expression on pancreatic β-cells in vivo and in vitro, which might provide insights for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in the clinic.

Project description:Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) is suppressed through α-adrenergic receptor stimulation by catecholamines, epinephrine and norepinephrine, in pancreatic β-cells. Previous work has elucidated a bevy of adrenergic regulatory mechanisms beyond traditional Gi-coupled signaling including regulation of ion channels and interactions with exocytotic machinery. Glucose oxidation may also be an important site for adrenergic regulation of GSIS, but the link between epinephrine and glucose oxidation in β-cells is undefined. Here, we evaluate whether adrenergic stimulation decreases oxidative metabolism in β cells. Oxygen consumption rates were determined for Min6 and isolated rat islets in 20mM glucose complete media, then epinephrine was added at either 0 nM (vehicle control) or 100nM, followed by 10uM yohimbine (a selective Adrα2A antagonist). To identify glucose oxidation as the primary metabolic pathway affected by epinephrine, oxidation of 14C(U)-labeled glucose was determined in Min6 cells with epinephrine or vehicle. Oxygen consumption and glucose oxidation experiments were conducted in the presence of cAMP and insulin secretion blockers, respectively. Proteomics was performed on Min6 cells exposed to epinephrine for 4 hours and compared to controls. Epinephrine, but not vehicle, reduced (P<0.01) oxygen consumption rates in rat islets and Min6 cells to 64 ± 6% and 65 ± 1% of baseline, respectively, and yohimbine restored oxygen consumption to rates not different from baseline. In Min6 cells incubated with epinephrine rates of 14C glucose oxidation were reduced (P<0.01) 66 ± 4% compared to vehicle controls. These results demonstrate that acute epinephrine exposure suppresses glucose oxidation in β cells via the specific adrenergic receptor, Adrα2A, and indicate a new role for adrenergic regulation in GSIS.

Project description:MEG3 was known as a growth suppressor in tumor cells by activating p53. Besides, MEG3 could regulate transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway, which is the key regulator of skeletal myogenesis and can enhance the proliferation of myogenic cells. Previous study also showed MEG3 was highly expressed in the paraxial mesoderm and probably regulated muscle development. To investigate the potential function of MEG3 in muscle development, we detected the expression levels of protein-coding genes after MEG3 over-expression or knockdown in C2C12 cell line using microarrays.
