Vascular endothelial growth factor B regulates insulin secretion in β cells of type 2 diabetes mellitus mice via PLCγ and IP3R-evoked Ca2+/CaMK2 signal pathway

ABSTRACT: Vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGFB) plays a crucial role in glucolipid metabolism and is highly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The role of VEGFB in the insulin secretion of β cells remains unverified. Thus, this study aims to discuss the effect of VEGFB on regulating insulin secretion in T2DM development, and its underlying mechanism. A high-fat diet and streptozocin were used for inducing T2DM in mice model, and VEGFB gene in islet cells of T2DM mice was knocked out by CRISPR Cas9 and overexpressed by Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) injection. The effect of VEGFB and its underlying mechanism was assessed by light microscope, electron microscope, fluorescence confocal microscope, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, mass spectrometer, and western blot. The decrement of insulin secretion in islet β cell of T2DM mice are aggravated and blood glucose remains at a high level after VEGFB deletion. However, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity of T2DM mice were improved after the AAV-VEGFB186 injection. VEGFB knockout or overexpression can inhibit or activate PLCγ/IP3R in a VEGFR1-dependent manner. Then, the change of PLCγ/IP3R caused by VEGFB/VEGFR1 will alter the expression of key factors on the Ca2+/CaMK2 signal pathway such as PPP3CA. Moreover, VEGFB can cause altered insulin secretion by changing the calcium concentration in β cells of T2DM mice. These findings indicated that VEGFB activated the Ca2+/CaMK2 pathway via VEGFR1-PLCγ and IP3R pathway to regulate insulin secretion, which provides new insight into the regulatory mechanism of abnormal insulin secretion in T2DM.

Project description:Expression of CD40 in non-hematopoietic cells has been linked to inflammation. We presented evidence that CD40, a T-cell costimulatory molecule, is expressed in human Î²-cells and the engagement of CD40 in insulinoma cells activated the NFKB and ERK1/2 pathways. CD40 activation in human islets cells induced secretion of IL-8, MCP-1 and MIP-1 Î², which is abrogated by inhibitors of NFkB and ERK1/2 inhibitors. In this study, we have studied gene expression mediated by CD40-CD40L interaction in islet cells. This approach identified 90 genes and transcripts exhibiting at least a 1.7 fold increase in their expression intensity after treatment with soluble CD40L. A significant number of genes were related to inflammation and oxidative stress. We have a strong overexpression of CXCL1 (GroÎ±), CXCL2 (Mif2) and CXCL3; chemokines belonging to CXC family structurally related to Il-8. 11 genes were selected from this group and further quantified by Real Time PCR, including CXCL1. Activation of islet cells with CD40L induced the secretion of CXCL1 in a NFKB dependent manner. Engagement of CD40 in islet cells did not induce apoptosis, neither Î²-cell death and did not enhanced TNF-Î± mediated cell death as observed in insulinoma cells. CD40 activation in insulinoma cells, results in ERK1/2 dependent phsophorylation of synapsin I, a protein associated with the exocytosis machinery in neurons and Î²-cells. However, treatment of islets with soluble CD40L did not affect glucose induced insulin secretion. It has been reported that ductal cells always present in human islet preparations express CD40 constitutively (ref). We found that CD40-CD40L interaction in ductal cells, unlike in Î²-cells, induces secretion of diabetogenic cytokines IFNÎ³ and TNF-Î±. Furthermore, incubation of islets containing ductal cells with CD40L decreased Î²-cells viability as assessed by measurement of their mitochondrial membrane potential Experiment Overall Design: We isolated islet cells from three patients. Part of islet cells from each patient has been treated with CD40L. We compared gene expression in treated cells vs untreated for each patient using dye-swap.
