Project description:To check the role of Wnt4 in murine β cells function, we inactivated Wnt4 in β cells from 4-5 weeks using tamoxifen. After 2 weeks tamoxifen treatment, we collected islets from control and mutant mice. We found that Wnt4 knock out islets show significant reduction of oxidation-reduction processes, cysteine and methionine metabolism, fatty acid beta-oxidation and fatty acid biosynthesis, as well as transport mechanisms. On the contrary, ribosome related genes, as well as oxidative stress and apoptosis genes were up-regulated.

Project description:To find the differences between β cells expressing Wnt4 and those that do not express it (or express it at low levels) at neonatal stage, murine islets at postnatal day 1 (P1) were collected. Based on a reporter expressing Cre recombinase from the Wnt4 locus, we observed that Wnt4 expression starts in a small subset of β cells at embryonic day (E) 18.5. At neonatal stages, around 50% of β cells express Wnt4 at P0 and most of cells express it by P5. We collected Wnt4 high and Wnt4 low islet cells by FACS and compared their gene expression profile. Wnt4 high islet cell population showed a significant increase of β-cell maturation and function related genes, including transcription factors such as Pdx1 and Nkx6.1, insulin 2, glucokinase (Gck), and the glucose transporter Slc2a2. On the contrary, Wnt4 low islet cell population showed significant increasing of proliferation markers such as Pcna, Mki67 and the positive cell cycle regulators Ccnd1, Ccnd3, Ccna2, Cdk1, Cdk2 and Cdk6. Taken together, these results show that Wnt4 expression is higher in more mature but less proliferative β cells.

Project description:Diabetes-resistant and diabetes-prone female New Zealand Obese mice were classified based on liver fat content and early blood glucose concentrations at 10 weeks of age before the onset of T2D. By using transcriptome and DNA methylome analysis of Langerhans islets, we identified early epigenetic alteration in mice and humans which could serve as putative epigenetic biomarkers

Project description:NOD mice deficient in the transcription factor Batf3 never develop diabetes. The goal of this study was to determine if NOD.Batf3-/- mice islets had any inflammatory signature associated with type 1 diabetes. Islets of Langerhans were isolated from NOD, NOD.Batf3-/-, and NOD.Rag1-/- and then compared to determine inflammatory gene profiles. At 6 and 8 weeks of age, NOD.Batf3-/- islets had an absence of inflammatory gene expression and were almost identical to uninflamed NOD.Rag1-/- islets. This work shows that absence of the Batf3 transcription factor is sufficient to prevent all the inflammatory sequelae of autoimmune diabetes. RNA was isolated from the pancreatic islets of Langerhans of 27 experimental mice. Mice were aged either 6 or 8 weeks. Three genotypes were tested: NOD, NOD.Rag1-/-, and NOD.Batf3-/-. There were 3-6 biological replicates per condition. All mice were female. All data was normalized using RMA in Arraystar.

Project description:Thiele2013 - Pancreas islets of Langerhans
The model of pancreas islets of Langerhans metabolism is derived from the community-driven global reconstruction of human metabolism (version 2.02, MODEL1109130000
).
This model is described in the article:
A community-driven global reconstruction of human metabolism.

Abstract:
Multiple models of human metabolism have been reconstructed, but each represents only a subset of our knowledge. Here we describe Recon 2, a community-driven,
consensus 'metabolic reconstruction', which is the most comprehensive representation of human metabolism that is applicable to computational modeling. Compared
with its predecessors, the reconstruction has improved topological and functional features, including ~2x more reactions and ~1.7x more unique metabolites. Using
Recon 2 we predicted changes in metabolite biomarkers for 49 inborn errors of metabolism with 77% accuracy when compared to experimental data. Mapping metabolomic
data and drug information onto Recon 2 demonstrates its potential for integrating and analyzing diverse data types. Using protein expression data, we automatically
generated a compendium of 65 cell type-specific models, providing a basis for manual curation or investigation of cell-specific metabolic properties. Recon 2 will
facilitate many future biomedical studies and is freely available at http://humanmetabolism.org/.

Project description:Epigenetic changes in Langerhans islets preceding the onset of diabetes
| PRJNA601954 | ENA
Project description:The spatial architecture of the islets of Langerhans is hypothesized to facilitate synchronized insulin secretion among β cells, yet testing this in vivo in the intact pancreas is challenging. Robo βKO mice, in which the genes Robo1 and Robo2 are deleted selectively in β cells, provide a unique model of altered islet spatial architecture without loss of β cell differentiation or islet damage from diabetes. Combining Robo βKO mice with intravital microscopy, we show here that Robo βKO islets have reduced synchronized intra-islet Ca2+ oscillations among β cells in vivo. We provide evidence that this loss is not due to a β cell-intrinsic function of Robo, mis-expression or mis-localization of Cx36 gap junctions, or changes in islet vascularization or innervation, suggesting that the islet architecture itself is required for synchronized Ca2+ oscillations. These results have implications for understanding structure-function relationships in the islets during progression to diabetes as well as engineering islets from stem cells.
