The effects of prolonged exposure of pancreatic β-cells to high saturated fatty acids on glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) action were investigated. Murine islets, human pancreatic 1.1B4 cells, and rat INS-1E cells were exposed to palmitate for 24 hours. mRNA and protein expression/phosphorylation were measured by real-time RT-PCR and immunoblotting, respectively. Specific short interfering RNAs were used to knockdown expression of the GLP-1 receptor (Glp1r) and Srebf1. Insulin release was assessed with a specific ELISA. Exposure of murine islets, as well as of human and INS-1E β-cells, to palmitate reduced the ability of exendin-4 to augment insulin mRNA levels, protein content, and release. In addition, palmitate blocked exendin-4-stimulated cAMP-response element-binding protein and v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog phosphorylation, whereas phosphorylation of MAPK-ERK kinase-1/2 and ERK-1/2 was not altered. Similarly, RNA interference-mediated suppression of Glp1r expression prevented exendin-4-induced cAMP-response element-binding protein and v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog phosphorylation, but did not impair exendin-4 stimulation of MAPK-ERK kinase-1/2 and ERK-1/2. Both islets from mice fed a high fat diet and human and INS-1E β-cells exposed to palmitate showed reduced GLP-1 receptor and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) and increased sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP-1C) mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, suppression of SREBP-1C protein expression prevented the reduction of PDX-1 and GLP-1 receptor levels and restored exendin-4 signaling and action. Finally, treatment of INS-1E cells with metformin for 24 h resulted in inhibition of SREBP-1C expression, increased PDX-1 and GLP-1 receptor levels, consequently, enhancement of exendin-4-induced insulin release. Palmitate impairs exendin-4 effects on β-cells by reducing PDX-1 and GLP-1 receptor expression and signaling in a SREBP-1C-dependent manner. Metformin counteracts the impairment of GLP-1 receptor signaling induced by palmitate.

Activating Receptors

Arginine vasopressin (AVP), bombesin, and ACh increase cytosolic free Ca2+ and potentiate glucose-induced insulin release by activating receptors linked to phospholipase C (PLC). We examined whether tolbutamide and diazoxide, which close or open ATP-sensitive K+ channels (KATP channels), respectively, interact with PLC-linked Ca2+ signals in HIT-T15 and mouse β-cells and with PLC-linked insulin secretion from HIT-T15 cells. In the presence of glucose, the PLC-linked Ca2+ signals were enhanced by tolbutamide (3–300 μM) and inhibited by diazoxide (10–100 μM). The effects of tolbutamide and diazoxide on PLC-linked Ca2+ signaling were mimicked by BAY K 8644 and nifedipine, an activator and inhibitor of L-type voltage-sensitive Ca2+channels, respectively. Neither tolbutamide nor diazoxide affected PLC-linked mobilization of internal Ca2+ or store-operated Ca2+ influx through non-L-type Ca2+ channels. In the absence of glucose, PLC-linked Ca2+ signals were diminished or abolished; this effect could be partly antagonized by tolbutamide. In the presence of glucose, tolbutamide potentiated and diazoxide inhibited AVP- or bombesin-induced insulin secretion from HIT-T15 cells. Nifedipine (10 μM) blocked both the potentiating and inhibitory actions of tolbutamide and diazoxide on AVP-induced insulin release, respectively. In glucose-free medium, AVP-induced insulin release was reduced but was again potentiated by tolbutamide, whereas diazoxide caused no further inhibition. Thus tolbutamide and diazoxide regulate both PLC-linked Ca2+signaling and insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells by modulating KATP channels, thereby determining voltage-sensitive Ca2+ influx.

Oscillatory phenomenon in electrical activity and cytoplasmic calcium concentration in response to glucose are intimately connected to multiple key aspects of pancreatic β-cell physiology. However, there is no single model for oscillatory mechanisms in these cells. We set out to identify possible pacemaker candidates for burst activity and cytoplasmic Ca2+ oscillations in these cells by analyzing published hypotheses, their corresponding mathematical models, and relevant experimental data. We found that although no single pacemaker can account for the variety of oscillatory phenomena in β-cells, at least several separate mechanisms can underlie specific kinds of oscillations. According to our analysis, slowly activating Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels can be responsible for very fast Ca2+ oscillations; changes in the ATP/ADP ratio and in the endoplasmic reticulum calcium concentration can be pacemakers for both fast bursts and cytoplasmic calcium oscillations, and cyclical cytoplasmic Na+ changes may underlie patterning of slow calcium oscillations. However, these mechanisms still lack direct confirmation, and their potential interactions raises new issues. Further studies supported by improved mathematical models are necessary to understand oscillatory phenomena in β-cell physiology.
