Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease that results from destruction of pancreatic β-cells. T1D subjects were recently shown to harbor distinct intestinal microbiome profiles. Based on these findings, the role of gut bacteria in T1D is being intensively investigated. The mechanism connecting intestinal microbial homeostasis with the development of T1D is unknown. Specific gut bacteria such as Bacteroides dorei (BD) and Ruminococcus gnavus (RG) show markedly increased abundance prior to the development of autoimmunity. One hypothesis is that these bacteria might traverse the damaged gut barrier, and their constituents elicit a response from human islets that causes metabolic abnormalities and inflammation. We have tested this hypothesis by exposing human islets to BD and RG in vitro, after which RNA-Seq analysis was performed. The bacteria altered expression of many islet genes. The commonly upregulated genes by these bacteria were cytokines, chemokines and enzymes, suggesting a significant effect of gut bacteria on islet antimicrobial and biosynthetic pathways. Additionally, each bacteria displayed a unique set of differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Ingenuity pathway analysis of DEGs revealed that top activated pathways and diseases included TREM1 Signaling and Inflammatory Response, illustrating the ability of bacteria to induce islet inflammation. The increased levels of selected factors were confirmed using immunoblotting and ELISA methods. Our data demonstrate that islets produce a complex anti-bacterial response. The response includes both symbiotic and pathogenic aspects. Both oxidative damage and leukocyte recruitment factors were prominent, which could induce beta cell damage and subsequent autoimmunity.

Project description:Dysregulation of glucagon secretion in type 1 diabetes (T1D) involves hypersecretion during postprandial states, but insufficient secretion during hypoglycemia. The sympathetic nervous system regulates glucagon secretion. To investigate islet sympathetic innervation in T1D, sympathetic tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) axons were analyzed in control non-diabetic organ donors, non-diabetic islet autoantibody-positive individuals (AAb), and age-matched persons with T1D. Islet TH axon numbers and density were significantly decreased in AAb compared to T1D with no significant differences observed in exocrine TH axon volume or lengths between groups. TH axons were in close approximation to islet α-cells in T1D individuals with long-standing diabetes. Islet RNA-sequencing and qRT-PCR analyses identified significant alterations in noradrenalin degradation, α-adrenergic signaling, cardiac b-adrenergic signaling, catecholamine biosynthesis, and additional neuropathology pathways. The close approximation of TH axons at islet α-cells supports a model for sympathetic efferent neurons directly regulating glucagon secretion. Sympathetic islet innervation and intrinsic adrenergic signaling pathways could be novel targets for improving glucagon secretion in T1D.

Project description:<h4><strong>AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: </strong>Metabolic dysregulation may precede the onset of type 1 diabetes. However, these metabolic disturbances and their specific role in disease initiation remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined whether children who progress to type 1 diabetes have a circulatory polar metabolite profile distinct from that of children who later progress to islet autoimmunity but not type 1 diabetes and a matched control group.</h4><h4><strong>METHODS: </strong>We analysed polar metabolites from 415 longitudinal plasma samples in a prospective cohort of children in three study groups: those who progressed to type 1 diabetes; those who seroconverted to one islet autoantibody but not to type 1 diabetes; and an antibody-negative control group. Metabolites were measured using two-dimensional GC high-speed time of flight MS.</h4><h4><strong>RESULTS: </strong>In early infancy, progression to type 1 diabetes was associated with downregulated amino acids, sugar derivatives and fatty acids, including catabolites of microbial origin, compared with the control group. Methionine remained persistently upregulated in those progressing to type 1 diabetes compared with the control group and those who seroconverted to one islet autoantibody. The appearance of islet autoantibodies was associated with decreased glutamic and aspartic acids.</h4><h4><strong>CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: </strong>Our findings suggest that children who progress to type 1 diabetes have a unique metabolic profile, which is, however, altered with the appearance of islet autoantibodies. Our findings may assist with early prediction of the disease.</h4>

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) usually has a preclinical phase identified by the presence of circulating autoantibodies to pancreatic islet antigens, and most young children who have multiple autoantibodies progress to diabetes within 10 years. While autoantibodies denote underlying islet autoimmunity, how this process is initiated and then progresses to clinical diabetes on a background of genetic susceptibility is not clearly understood. We analysed gene expression by RNA-seq in four types of immune cells from five genetically at-risk children with islet autoantibodies who progressed to diabetes in ≤ 3 years (‘progressors’) and in five at-risk children matched for sex, age and HLA who had not progressed to diabetes (‘non-progressors’).

Project description:Pancreatic islets are essential for maintaining physiological blood glucose levels, and declining islet function is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes. Here we employ mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics to systematically analyse purified islets from 9 genetic or diet-induced mouse models representing a broad cross-section of metabolic health. Quantifying the islet proteome to a depth of >11,500 proteins, this study represents the most detailed analysis of islet proteins to date. Our data highlight that the vast majority of islet proteins are expressed in all strains and diets, but more than half of the proteins vary in expression levels. Associating these varied protein expression levels on an individual animal basis with individual phenotypic measures reveals islet mitochondrial function as a major positive indicator of metabolic health. This compendium of strain-specific and dietary changes to mouse islet proteomes represents a comprehensive resource for basic and translational islet cell biology.

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) usually has a preclinical phase identified by the presence of circulating autoantibodies to pancreatic islet antigens, and most young children who have multiple autoantibodies progress to diabetes within 10 years. While autoantibodies denote underlying islet autoimmunity, how this process is initiated and then progresses to clinical diabetes on a background of genetic susceptibility is not clearly understood. Only one study has thus far reported changes in gene expression in isolated immune cells associated with progression to islet autoimmunity. We analysed chromatin accessibility by ATAC-seq in CD4+ T cells in four genetically at-risk children with islet autoantibodies who progressed to diabetes in ≤ 3 years (‘progressors’), compared to five at-risk children matched for sex, age and HLA who had not progressed (‘non-progressors). From ATAC-seq data, we generated the first map of chromatin accessibility in T cells of islet autoantibody-positive children. Progression was associated with a subtle reconfiguration of regulatory chromatin regions, and some of the chromatin conformation changes could be linked to progression associated expression changes at cytotoxic genes.

Project description:Identification of transcriptional profile of several genes involved in diabetes in islet-derived extracellular vesicles (Evs). Recently, EVs are identified as a new mechanism in cell-to-cell communication by transfer of protein and genic information (mRNA, microRNA). Their role is under investigation in immunology, stem cell and cancer, but not in islets and diabetes. The aim of this experiment is to identify mRNA transcripts (in particular, mRNA transcripts involved in diabetes pathophysiology) present in islet Evs.

Project description:Pancreatic islet cells are critical for maintaining normal blood glucose levels and their malfunction underlies diabetes development and progression. We used single-cell RNA sequencing to determine the transcriptomes of 1,492 human pancreatic α-, β-, δ- and PP cells from non-diabetic and type 2 diabetes organ donors. We identified cell type specific genes and pathways as well as 245 genes with disturbed expression in type 2 diabetes. Importantly, 92% of the genes have not previously been associated with islet cell function or growth. Comparison of gene profiles in mouse and human α- and β-cells revealed species-specific expression. All data are available for online browsing and download and will hopefully serve as a resource for the islet research community.
