A reference map of the human proinsulin biosynthetic interaction network

ABSTRACT: A monoclonal antibody specific for human proinsulin (20G11) was generated and utilized for affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) for unbiased profiling of proinsulin protein:protein interactions in human islets. Half of each islet prep was treated with the cytokines IL1-beta and IFN-gamma. Immunoprecipitated proinsulin or control IgG immunoprecipitates from human islets were then subjected to state of the art mass spectrometry revealing a rich proinsulin biosynthetic network that is remarkably conserved across a diverse group of donors.

Project description:We demonstrate diverse roles of interferonâgamma (IFN-Î³) in the induction and regulation of immune-mediated inflammation using a transfer model of autoimmune diabetes. The diabetogenic CD4+BDC2.5 (BDC) T cell clone upon transfer into NOD.scid mice induced destruction of islets of Langerhans leading to diabetes. Administration of a neutralizing antibody to IFN-Î³ (H22) resulted in long term protection (LTP) from diabetes, with inflammation but persistence of a significant, albeit decreased numbers of Î²-cells. BDC T cells were a mixture of cells expressing high, intermediate and low levels of the T cell receptor. Clonotype-low BDC T cells were required for LTP. Furthermore, islet infiltrating leukocytes in the LTP mice contained Foxp3+CD4 T cells. Islet inflammation in both diabetic and LTP mice was characterized by heavy infiltration of macrophages. Gene expression profiles indicated that macrophages in diabetic mice were M1-type, while LTP mice contained M2-differentiated. The LTP was abolished if mice were treated with either an antibody depleting CD4 T cells, or a neutralizing antibody to CTLA-4, in this case, only at a late stage. Neutralization of IL-10, TGF-Î², GITR or CD25 had no effect. Transfer of only clonotype-high expressing BDC T cells induced diabetes but in contrast, H22 antibodies did not inhibit diabetes. While clonotype high T cells induced diabetes even when IFN-Î³ was neutralized, paradoxically, there was reduced inflammation and no diabetes if host myeloid cells lacked IFN-Î³ receptor. Hence, using monoclonal CD4 T cells, IFN-Î³ can have a wide diversity of roles, depending on the setting of the immune process. Experiment Overall Design: Pancreatic islets were laser-capture microdissected from mice injected with diabetogenic T cells. One cohort of mice also received injections with anti-interfereon gamma monoclonal antibody, which protected those mice from developing diabetes. RNA prepared from islets was amplified and analyzed by Affymetrix GeneChips. Each GeneChip was prepared from RNA pooled from 5 mice at each timepoint. GeneChips were prepared from RNA extracted at different days following injection of T cells. The following days were assayed day 0 (i.e., untreated), day 3 (for diabetic and protected islets), day 4 (diabetic and protected), day 5 (only for protected, as diabetic islets were too edematous to dissect), day 8 (diabetic and protected).

Project description:Recent advances in the understanding of the genetics of type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility have focused attention on the regulation of transcriptional activity within the pancreatic beta-cell. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent an important component of regulatory control, and have proven roles in the development of human disease and control of glucose homeostasis. We set out to establish the miRNA profile of human pancreatic islets and of enriched beta-cell populations, and to explore their potential involvement in T2D susceptibility. We used Illumina small RNA sequencing to profile the miRNA fraction in three preparations each of primary human islets and of enriched beta-cells generated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. In total, 366 miRNAs were found to be expressed (i.e. >100 cumulative reads) in islets and 346 in beta-cells; of the total of 384 unique miRNAs, 328 were shared. A comparison of the islet-cell miRNA profile with those of 15 other human tissues identified 40 miRNAs predominantly expressed (i.e. >50% of all reads seen across the tissues) in islets. Several highly-expressed islet miRNAs, such as miR-375, have established roles in the regulation of islet function, but others (e.g. miR-27b-3p, miR-192-5p) have not previously been described in the context of islet biology. As a first step towards exploring the role of islet-expressed miRNAs and their predicted mRNA targets in T2D pathogenesis, we looked at published T2D association signals across these sites. We found evidence that predicted mRNA targets of islet-expressed miRNAs were globally enriched for signals of T2D association (p-values <0.01, q-values <0.1). At six loci with genome-wide evidence for T2D association (AP3S2, KCNK16, NOTCH2, SCL30A8, VPS26A, and WFS1) predicted mRNA target sites for islet-expressed miRNAs overlapped potentially causal variants. In conclusion, we have described the miRNA profile of human islets and beta-cells and provide evidence linking islet miRNAs to T2D pathogenesis.
