Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) is an incretin hormone produced in the gastrointestinal tract that stimulates glucose dependent insulin secretion. Impaired incretin response has been documented in diabetic patients and was mainly related to the inability of the pancreatic beta cells to secrete insulin in response to GIP. Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) have been shown to play an important role in pancreatic beta cell dysfunction. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the exposure to AGEs can induce GIP resistance in the pancreatic beta cell line HIT-T15. Cells were cultured for 5 days in low (CTR) or high glucose (HG) concentration in the presence of AGEs (GS) to evaluate the expression of GIP receptor (GIPR), the intracellular signaling activated by GIP, and secretion of insulin in response to GIP. The results showed that incubation with GS alone altered intracellular GIP signaling and decreased insulin secretion as compared to CTR. GS in combination with HG reduced the expression of GIPR and PI3K and abrogated GIP-induced AKT phosphorylation and GIP-stimulated insulin secretion. In conclusion, we showed that treatment with GS is associated with the loss of the insulinotropic effect of GIP in hyperglycemic conditions.

Abstract Objective. Histone deacytylase inhibitors (HDACis) inhibit the deacetylation of the lysine residue of proteins, including histones, and regulate the transcription of a variety of genes. Recently, HDACis have been used clinically as anti-cancer drugs and possible anti-diabetic drugs. Even though HDACis have been proven to protect the cytokine-induced damage of pancreatic beta cells, evidence also shows that high doses of HDACis are cytotoxic. In the present study, we, therefore, investigated the eff ect of HDACis on insulin secretion in a pancreatic beta cell line. Methods. Pancreatic beta cells MIN6 were treated with selected HDACis (trichostatin A, TSA; valproic acid, VPA; and sodium butyrate, NaB) in medium supplemented with 25 mM glucose and 13% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) for indicated time intervals. Protein expression of Pdx1 and Mafa in MIN6 cells was demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry, expression of Pdx1 and Mafa genes was measured by quantitative RT-PCR method. Insulin release from MIN6 cells and insulin cell content were estimated by ELISA kit. Superoxide production in MIN6 cells was measured using a Total ROS/Superoxide Detection System. Results. TSA, VPA, and NaB inhibited the expression of Pdx1 and Mafa genes and their products. TSA treatment led to beta cell malfunction, characterized by enhanced insulin secretion at 3 and 9 mM glucose, but impaired insulin secretion at 15 and 25 mM glucose. Th us, TSA induced dysregulation of the insulin secretion mechanism. TSA also enhanced reactive oxygen species production in pancreatic beta cells. Conclusions. Our results showed that HDACis caused failure to suppress insulin secretion at low glucose concentrations and enhance insulin secretion at high glucose concentrations. In other words, when these HDACis are used clinically, high doses of HDACis may cause hypoglycemia in the fasting state and hyperglycemia in the fed state. When using HDACis, physicians should, therefore, be aware of the capacity of these drugs to modulate the insulin secretory capacity of pancreatic beta cells.

Sakuma N, Ishikawa S, Okada K, Miyazaki J, Saito T, Glucose induces calcium-dependent and calcium-independent insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cell line MIN6. Eur J Endocrinol 1995;133:227–34. ISSN 0804–4643 The present study was undertaken to determine whether there are Ca2+-dependent and -independent pathways of glucose-induced insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cell line MIN6. Glucose at a concentration of 16.7 mmol/l caused marked increases in cellular free calcium [Ca2+]1) and insulin secretion, which depended on glucose metabolism. When cells were pretreated with 20 mmol/l mannoheptulose, an inhibitor of glucokinase, the 16.7 mmol/l glucose induced a rise in [Ca2+]1 and insulin secretion disappeared. Also, l-leucine and l-arginine increased [Ca2+]1 and induced insulin secretion. Under Ca2+-free conditions, insulin release was still induced, without any change in [Ca2+]1, by these three different stimulants. The cumulative values of insulin secretion were 13.7–29.3% of the control, which were significantly less than that in the presence of Ca2+. Cellular alkalinization occurred in response to all these stimulants, irrespective of the presence or absence of Ca2+. Forskolin, a diterpene activator of adenylate cyclase, produced insulin secretion independently of [Ca2+]1, which accompanied cellular alkalinization. Also, a high glucose level increased cellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) production in the presence and absence of Ca2+, and the effect was diminished by approximately 73% in Ca2+-free conditions. These results indicate that a high glucose level stimulates both Ca2+-dependent and -independent insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. We suggest that the cAMP production and the cellular alkalinization participate in the Ca2+-independent mechanism.

Glucose Stimulated Insulin Secretion

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose, reciprocal with the so-called glucose sensor, glucokinase, in pancreatic beta cells. To study the role of G-6-Pase in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from beta cells, we have introduced rat G-6-Pase catalytic subunit cDNA and have established permanent clones with 3-, 7- and 24-fold G-6-Pase activity of the mouse beta-cell line, MIN6. In these clones, glucose usage and ATP production in the presence of 5.5 or 25 mM glucose were reduced, and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was decreased in proportion to the increased G-6-Pase activity. In addition, insulin secretory capacity in response to d-fructose and pyruvate was unchanged; however, 25 mM glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and intracellular calcium response were completely inhibited. In the clone with 24-fold G-6-Pase activity, changes in intracellular NAD(P)H autofluorescence in response to 25 mM glucose were reduced, but the changes with 20 mM fructose and 20 mM pyruvate were not altered. Stable overexpression of G-6-Pase in beta cells resulted in attenuation of the overall glucose-stimulated metabolic responses corresponding to the degree of overexpression. This particular experimental manipulation shows that the possibility exists of modulating glucose-stimulated insulin release by thoroughly altering glucose cycling at the glucokinase/G-6-Pase step.

Aims/hypothesis: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) is involved in the degradation of LDLR. However, PCSK9 can target other proteins in a cell-type specific manner. While PCSK9 has been detected in pancreatic islets, its expression in insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells is debated. Herein, we studied PCSK9 expression, regulation and function in the human pancreatic beta cell line EndoC-βH1. Methods: We assessed PCSK9 expression in mouse and human pancreatic islets, and in the pancreatic beta cell line EndoC-βH1. We also studied PCSK9 regulation by cholesterol, lipoproteins, Mevastatin, and by SREBPs transcription factors. To evaluate PCSK9 function in pancreatic beta cells, we performed PCSK9 gain-and loss-of-function experiments in EndoC-βH1 using siPCSK9 or recombinant PCSK9 treatments, respectively. Results: We demonstrate that PCSK9 is expressed and secreted by pancreatic beta cells. In EndoC-βH1 cells, PCSK9 expression is regulated by cholesterol and by SREBPs transcription factors. Importantly, PCSK9 knockdown results in multiple transcriptome, proteome and secretome deregulations and impaired insulin secretion. By gain- and loss-of- function experiments, we observed that PCSK9 regulates the expression levels of LDLR and VLDLR through an extracellular mechanism while CD36, PD-L1 and HLA-ABC are regulated through an intracellular mechanism. Conclusions/interpretation: Collectively, these results highlight PCSK9 as an important regulator of CD36, PD-L1 and HLA-ABC cell surface expression in pancreatic beta cells.
