Organ-specific metabolic pathways distinguish prediabetes, type 2 diabetes and normal tissues

ABSTRACT: Defects in pancreatic islets and the progression of multi-tissue insulin resistance in combination with environmental factors are the main causes of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Mass spectrometry-based proteomics of five key-metabolic tissues on a cohort of 42 multi-organ donors provided deep coverage of the proteomes of pancreatic islets, visceral adipose tissue (VAT), liver, skeletal muscle and serum. Enrichment analysis of gene ontology (GO) terms built a tissue-specific map of the chronological order of altered biological processes across healthy controls (CTRL), pre-diabetes (PD) and T2D subjects. This unique dataset allowed us to explore alterations of entire biological pathways and individual proteins in multiple tissues. We confirmed the significant decrease of the citric acid cycle and the respiratory electron transport in VAT and muscle of T2D and we provided a thorough visual representation of the complete set of downregulated proteins. Importantly, we found widespread novel alterations in relevant biological pathways including the increase in hemostasis in pancreatic islets of PD, the increase in the complement cascade in liver and pancreatic islets of PD and the elevation in cholesterol biosynthesis in liver of T2D. Overall, our findings suggest inflammatory, immune and vascular impairments in pancreatic islets as potentially causal factors of insufficient insulin production and increased glucagon levels in the early stages of T2D. In contrast alterations in lipid metabolism and mitochondrial function in the liver and VAT/muscle, respectively, became evident later in manifest T2D. This first multi-tissue proteomic map indicates the temporal order of tissue-specific metabolic dysregulation in T2D development.

Environmental and genetic factors cause defects in pancreatic islets driving type 2 diabetes (T2D) together with the progression of multi-tissue insulin resistance. Mass spectrometry proteomics on samples from five key metabolic tissues of a cross-sectional cohort of 43 multi-organ donors provides deep coverage of their proteomes. Enrichment analysis of Gene Ontology terms provides a tissue-specific map of altered biological processes across healthy, prediabetes (PD), and T2D subjects. We find w ...[more]

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.
