The quantification of insulin released from single cells of the insulin-secreting cell line βTC3 permeabilized by digitonin is demonstrated. A simple method for monitoring the on-column release process by using capillary electrophoresis and laser-induced native fluorescence detection is described. Quantitative measurements of both the amount of insulin released and the amount remaining in the cell can be achieved simultaneously. This protocol provides an alternative approach to the study of cell secretion in the fields of neuroscience and endocrinology. 相似文献

An incretin is a factor released by the gut in response to nutrients that facilitates uptake of glucose by peripheral tissues. The incretin concept predates the discovery of insulin but it is now clear that incretins act by stimulating secretion of this hormone. As glucagon has insulin-releasing activity, it was speculated that intestinal glucagon-like immunoreactivity (enteroglucagon) was involved in the incretin effect but it was an achievement in the field of comparative endocrinology that led to the demonstration that the preproglucagon gene encodes the most potent incretin in the human. Characterization of cloned cDNAs encoding two preproglucagons from the Brockmann body of the anglerfish Lophius americanus demonstrated that the glucagon sequence is flanked by a 34 amino-acid-residue sequence with appreciable structural similarity to glucagon that was termed glucagon-like peptide (GLP). A 36 amino-acid-residue ortholog of anglerfish GLP was subsequently identified in human preproglucagon but this peptide had only weak insulin-releasing activity. However, alignment of GLP sequences from human and teleost fish showed that the human ortholog is extended from its N-terminus by a hexapeptide. Removal of this extension by an endogenous protease generates GLP-1-(7-36)amide, the potent and effective form of the incretin. More recently, comparative endocrinology has contributed to the exploitation of incretins as antidiabetic drugs. Exendin-4, a GLP-1 receptor agonist first isolated from the venom of the Gila monster Heloderma suspectum, is a clinically valuable, long-acting incretin and the skins of several species of frogs synthesize potent insulin-releasing peptides with therapeutic potential. 相似文献

Cellular protein transport and secretion is fundamental to the very existence of an organism, regulating important physiological functions such as reproduction, digestion, energy production, growth, neurotransmission, hormone release, water and ion transport, etc., all required for the survival and maintenance of homeostasis within an organism. Molecular understanding of transport and secretion of intracellular product has therefore been of paramount importance and aggressively investigated for over six decades. Only in the last 20 years, the general molecular mechanism of the process has come to light, following discovery of key proteins involved in ER-Golgi transport, and discovery of the porosome the universal secretion machinery in cells. 相似文献

In glucose-induced insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells, a population of insulin granules fuses with the plasma membrane without the typical docking process (newcomer granule fusions), however, its mechanism is unclear. In this study, we investigated the PI3K signaling pathways involved in the upregulation of newcomer granule fusions. Acute treatment with the class IA-selective PI3K inhibitors, PIK-75 and PI-103, enhanced the glucose-induced insulin secretion. Total internal reflection fluorescent microscopy revealed that the PI3K inhibitors increased the fusion events from newcomer granules. We developed a new system for transfection into pancreatic islets and demonstrated the usefulness of this system in order for evaluating the effect of transfected genes on the glucose-induced secretion in primary cultured pancreatic islets. Using this transfection system together with a series of constitutive active mutants, we showed that the PI3K-3-phosphoinositide dependent kinase-1 (PDK1)-Akt pathway mediated the potentiation of insulin secretion. The Akt inhibitor also enhanced the glucose-induced insulin secretion in parallel with the upregulation of newcomer granule fusions, probably via increased motility of intracellular insulin granules. These data suggest that the PI3K-PDK1-Akt pathway plays a significant role in newcomer granule fusions, probably through an alteration of the dynamics of the intracellular insulin granules. 相似文献

The role of the redox potential in insulin secretion by beta cells stimulated with high glucose was investigated using an in vitro pancreas perfusion system. To assess glycolytic flux the sum of fructose-1,6-P2 + triose-P was determined in pure beta cells microdissected from lyophilized sections of the isolated perfused pancreas quick frozen during the early insulin secretory response. L-Glycerol 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate were measured as indicators of the free cytosolic [NAD+]/[NADH] ratio and NADH and NADPH were also measured. Fructose-1,6-P2 + triose-P was increased in beta cells simultaneously with the onset of insulin secretion indicating an increase in glucose metabolism had occurred. The ratio of [dihydroxyacetone phosphate]/[L-glycerol 3-phosphate] increased simultaneously with the onset of insulin secretion. NADH content increased only after initiation of insulin secretion and NADPH levels remained unchanged during the early secretory response to high glucose. These data contradict the hypothesis that insulin secretion is triggered by a more reduced cytosolic redox state and instead indicate that insulin secretion is initiated by other metabolic coupling factor(s) generated in beta cells stimulated by high glucose. 相似文献

Protein restriction at early stages of life reduces β-cell volume, number of insulin-containing granules, insulin content
and release by pancreatic islets in response to glucose and other secretagogues, abnormalities similar to those seen in type
2 diabetes. Amino acids are capable to directly modulate insulin secretion and/or contribute to the maintenance of β-cell
function, resulting in an improvement of insulin release. Animal models of protein malnutrition have provided important insights
into the adaptive mechanisms involved in insulin secretion in malnutrition. In this review, we discuss studies focusing on
the modulation of insulin secretion by amino acids, specially leucine and taurine, in rodent models of protein malnutrition.
Leucine supplementation increases insulin secretion by pancreatic islets in malnourished mice. This effect is at least in
part due to increase in the expression of proteins involved in the secretion process, and the activation of the PI3K/PKB/mTOR
pathway seems also to contribute. Mice supplemented with taurine have increased insulin content and secretion as well as increased
expression of genes essential for β-cell functionality. The knowledge of the mechanisms through which amino acids act on pancreatic
β-cells to stimulate insulin secretion is of interest for clinical medicine. It can reveal new targets for the development
of drugs toward the treatment of endocrine diseases, in special type 2 diabetes. 相似文献

A possible benefit of creating smaller and more rigid active analogs of somatostatin is the discovery of compounds which selectively inhibit the secretion of insulin, glucagon or growth hormone. A series of cyclic tetrapeptide analogs related to somatostatin was synthesized, and one member of this series was found to cause an unexpected stimulation of glucagon secretion while having little if any effect on either insulin or growth hormone secretion. A sustained increase in plasma glucose levels was also observed. Two possible modes of action are proposed. 相似文献

Islet cells undergo major changes in structure and function to meet the demand for increased insulin secretion during pregnancy, but the nature of the hormonal interactions and signaling events is incompletely understood. Here, we used the glucose-responsive MIN6 beta-cell line treated with prolactin (PRL), progesterone (PRG), and dexamethasone (DEX, a synthetic glucocorticoid), all elevated during late pregnancy, to study their effects on mechanisms of insulin secretion. DEX alone or combined with PRL and PRG inhibited insulin secretion in response to 16 mM glucose-stimulating concentrations. However, in the basal state (3 mM glucose), the insulin levels in response to DEX treatment were unchanged, and the three hormones together maintained higher insulin release. There were no changes of protein levels of GLUT2 or glucokinase (GK), but PRL or PRG treatment increased GK activity, whereas DEX had an inhibitory effect on GK activity. alpha-Ketoisocaproate (alpha-KIC)-stimulated insulin secretion was also reduced by DEX alone or combined with PRL and PRG, suggesting that DEX may inhibit distal steps in the insulin-exocytotic process. PRL treatment increased the concentration of intracellular cAMP in response to 16 mM glucose, suggesting a role for cAMP in potentiation of insulin secretion, whereas DEX alone or combined with PRL and PRG reduced cAMP levels by increasing phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity. These data provide evidence that PRL and to a lesser extent PRG, which increase in early pregnancy, enhance basal and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in part by increasing GK activity and amplifying cAMP levels. Glucocorticoid, which increases throughout gestation, counteracts only glucose-stimulated insulin secretion under high glucose concentrations by dominantly inhibiting GK activity and increasing PDE activity to reduce cAMP levels. These adaptations in the beta-cell may play an important role in maintaining the basal hyperinsulinemia of pregnancy while limiting the capacity of PRL and PRG to promote glucose-stimulated insulin secretion during late gestation. 相似文献

IGFBP-1 is involved in glucohomeostasis, but the direct action of IGFBP-1 on the beta-cell remains unclear. Incubation of dispersed mouse beta-cells with IGFBP-1 for 30min inhibited insulin secretion stimulated by glucose, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) or tolbutamide without changes in basal release of insulin and in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and NAD(P)H evoked by glucose. In contrast, IGFBP-1 augmented glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in intact islets, associated with a reduced somatostatin secretion. These results suggest a suppressive action of IGFBP-1 on insulin secretion in isolated beta-cells through a mechanism distal to energy generating steps and not involving regulation of [Ca(2+)](i). In contrast, IGFBP-1 amplifies glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in intact islets, possibly by suppressing somatostatin secretion. These direct modulatory influences of IGFBP-1 on insulin secretion may imply an important regulatory role of IGFBP-1 in vivo and in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes, in which loss of insulin release is an early pathogenetic event. 相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) is considered to modulate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Pancreatic beta cells express multiple isoforms of PKCs; however, the role of each isoform in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion remains controversial. In this study we investigated the role of PKCdelta, a major isoform expressed in pancreatic beta cells on beta cell function. Here, we showed that PKCdelta null mice manifested glucose intolerance with impaired insulin secretion. Insulin tolerance test showed no decrease in insulin sensitivity in PKCdelta null mice. Studies using islets isolated from these mice demonstrated decreased glucose- and KCl-stimulated insulin secretion. Perifusion studies indicated that mainly the second phase of insulin secretion was decreased. On the other hand, glucose-induced influx of Ca2+ into beta cells was not altered. Immunohistochemistry using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy and electron microscopic analysis showed an increased number of insulin granules close to the plasma membrane in beta cells of PKCdelta null mice. Although PKC is thought to phosphorylate Munc18-1 and facilitate soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein attachment protein receptors complex formation, the phosphorylation of Munc18-1 by glucose stimulation was decreased in islets of PKCdelta null mice. We conclude that PKCdelta plays a non-redundant role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. The impaired insulin secretion in PKCdelta null mice is associated with reduced phosphorylation of Munc18-1. 相似文献

Several insulin therapies are widely in clinical use with the basic strategy that mimics insulin secretion in a normal glucose-insulin endocrine metabolic regulatory system. In this paper, we model the insulin therapies using a delay differential equation model. We study the dynamics of the model both qualitatively and quantitatively. The analytical results show the existence and uniqueness of a stable periodic solution that corresponds to ultradian insulin secretion oscillations. Numerically we simulate the insulin administration based on our model. The numerical simulation results are in agreement with findings of clinical studies. 相似文献

Overnutrition during critical developmental periods is believed to be a risk factor for the emergence of metabolic disorders in adulthood. The present study investigated the effects of pups overfeeding during lactation on offspring's insulin secretion. To study the consequences of overnutrition early in life in rats, litter size reduction has been shown to be an appropriate experimental model. To induce early postnatal overnutrition, litter size was reduced to three pups per litter at the third day following birth [overfed group (OG)]. In the control group (CG), the litter size was adjusted to 10 pups per litter. Metabolic parameters and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion were assessed. OG pups ingested more milk at 10 and 21 days and had an augmented food intake at 1 year compared to the CG. Consistently, body weight, body fat, and fasting plasma levels of insulin were higher in 1-year-old OG rats. In addition, OG rats exhibited enhanced insulin secretion, accompanied by elevated content of GLUT-2 in pancreatic islets compared to CG. These findings indicate that early postnatal overnutrition during a critical developmental period in life may program permanent alterations in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. 相似文献

APOBEC-1 Complementation Factor (ACF) is an RNA-binding protein that interacts with apoB mRNA to support RNA editing. ACF traffics between the cytoplasm and nucleus. It is retained in the nucleus in response to elevated serum insulin levels where it supports enhanced apoB mRNA editing. In this report we tested whether ACF may have the ability to regulate nuclear export of apoB mRNA to the sites of translation in the cytoplasm. Using mouse models of obesity-induced insulin resistance and primary hepatocyte cultures we demonstrated that both nuclear retention of ACF and apoB mRNA editing were reduced in the livers of hyperinsulinemic obese mice relative to lean controls. Coincident with an increase in the recovery of ACF in the cytoplasm was an increase in the proportion of total cellular apoB mRNA recovered in cytoplasmic extracts. Cytoplasmic ACF from both lean controls and obese mouse livers was enriched in endosomal fractions associated with apoB mRNA translation and ApoB lipoprotein assembly. Inhibition of ACF export to the cytoplasm resulted in nuclear retention of apoB mRNA and reduced both intracellular and secreted ApoB protein in primary hepatocytes. The importance of ACF for modulating ApoB was supported by the finding that RNAi knockdown of ACF reduced ApoB secretion. An additional discovery from this study was the finding that leptin is a suppressor ACF expression. Dyslipidemia is a common pathology associated with insulin resistance that is in part due to the loss of insulin controlled secretion of lipid in ApoB-containing very low density lipoproteins. The data from animal models suggested that loss of insulin regulated ACF trafficking and leptin regulated ACF expression may make an early contribution to the overall pathology associated with very low density lipoprotein secretion from the liver in obese individuals. 相似文献

Regulated secretion is a fundamental cellular process that serves diverse functions in neurobiology, endocrinology, immunology, and numerous other aspects of animal physiology. In response to environmental or biological cues, cells release contents of secretory granules into an extracellular medium to communicate with or impact neighboring or distant cells through paracrine or endocrine signaling. To investigate mechanisms governing stimulus-secretion coupling, to better understand how cells maintain or regulate their secretory activity, and to characterize secretion defects in human diseases, probes for tracking various exocytotic events at the cellular or sub-cellular level have been developed over the years. This review summarizes different strategies and recent progress in developing optical probes for monitoring regulated secretion in mammalian cells. 相似文献

The small Rho family GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1 have each been shown to function in insulin exocytosis and are presumed to function in actin remodeling and insulin granule mobilization. However, whether either GTPase is required for the mobilization phase of insulin release (second phase) and are linked in a common signaling pathway has remained unknown. Here we demonstrate that small interfering RNA-mediated depletion of Cdc42 from isolated islets results in the selective loss of second phase insulin release. Consistent with a role in this nutrient-dependent phase, Cdc42 activation was detected exclusively in response to D-glucose and was unresponsive to KCl or non-metabolizable glucose analogs in MIN6 beta-cells. Cdc42 activation occurred early in secretion (3 min), whereas Rac1 activation required approximately 15-20 min, suggesting Cdc42 as proximal and Rac1 as distal regulators of second-phase secretion. Importantly, Rac1 activation and function was linked in a common pathway downstream of Cdc42; Cdc42 depletion ablated glucose-induced Rac1 activation, and expression of constitutively active Rac1 in Cdc42-depleted cells functionally restored glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Occurring at a time midway between Cdc42 and Rac1 activations was the phosphorylation of p21-activated-kinase 1 (Pak1), and this phosphorylation event required Cdc42. Moreover, small interfering RNA-mediated Pak1 depletion abolished Rac1 activation and glucose-stimulated insulin release, suggesting that Pak1 may mediate the link between Cdc42 and Rac1 in this pathway. Taken together, these data substantiate the existence of a novel signaling pathway in the islet beta-cell whereby Cdc42 functions as a key proximal transmitter of the glucose signal early in stimulus-secretion coupling to support the later stage of insulin release. 相似文献

Although syntaxin 1 is generally thought to function as the primary target-N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor required for pancreatic beta cell insulin secretion, we have observed that overexpression of a dominant-interfering syntaxin 4 mutant (syntaxin 4/DeltaTM) attenuated glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in betaHC-9 cells. Furthermore, these cells express the selective syntaxin 4-binding protein Synip (syntaxin 4 interacting protein), and Synip was specifically co-immunoprecipitated with syntaxin 4 but not syntaxin 1. Overexpression of the full-length Synip protein (Synip/wild type) inhibited VAMP2 association with syntaxin 4 and decreased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. This did not occur with a Synip mutant (Synip/ DeltaEF) that was incapable of binding syntaxin 4. Consistent with a functional role of syntaxin 4 in this process, expression of syntaxin 4/DeltaTM also inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Furthermore, analysis of first and second phase insulin secretion demonstrated that syntaxin 4/DeltaTM mainly suppressed the second phase of insulin secretion. In contrast, overexpression of Synip resulted in an inhibition of both the first and second phase of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. These data demonstrate that syntaxin 4 plays a functional role on insulin release and granule fusion in beta cells and that this process is regulated by the syntaxin 4-specific binding protein Synip. 相似文献

Glucose tolerance declines with maturation and aging in several species, but the time of onset and extent of changes in insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion and their contribution to changes in glucose tolerance are unclear. We therefore determined the effect of maturation on glucose tolerance, insulin secretion, and insulin sensitivity in a longitudinal study of male and female sheep from preweaning to adulthood, and whether these measures were related across age. Glucose tolerance was assessed by intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT, 0.25 g glucose/kg), insulin secretion as the integrated insulin concentration during IVGTT, and insulin sensitivity by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp (2 mU insulin.kg(-1).min(-1)). Glucose tolerance, relative insulin secretion, and insulin sensitivity each decreased with age (P < 0.001). The disposition index, the product of insulin sensitivity, and various measures of insulin secretion during fasting or IVGTT also decreased with age (P < 0.001). Glucose tolerance in young adult sheep was independently predicted by insulin sensitivity (P = 0.012) and by insulin secretion relative to integrated glucose during IVGTT (P = 0.005). Relative insulin secretion before weaning was correlated positively with that in the adult (P = 0.023), whereas glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and disposition indexes in the adult did not correlate with those at earlier ages. We conclude that glucose tolerance declines between the first month of life and early adulthood in the sheep, reflecting decreasing insulin sensitivity and absence of compensatory insulin secretion. Nevertheless, the capacity for insulin secretion in the adult reflects that early in life, suggesting that it is determined genetically or by persistent influences of the perinatal environment. 相似文献

The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rapidly increasing worldwide with significant consequences on individual quality of life as well as economic burden on states' healthcare costs. While origins of the pathogenesis of T2DM are poorly understood, an early defect in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) from pancreatic β-cells is considered a hallmark of T2DM 1.Upon a glucose stimulus, insulin is secreted in a biphasic manner with an early first-phase burst of insulin, which is followed by a second, more sustained phase of insulin output 2. First phase insulin secretion is diminished early in T2DM as well is in subjects who are at risk of developing T2DM 3 4 5 6.An effective treatment of T2DM with incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) or its long acting peptide analogue exendin-4 (E4), restores first-phase and augments second-phase glucose stimulated insulin secretion. This effect of incretin action occurs within minutes of GLP-1/E4 infusion in T2DM humans. An additional important consideration is that incretin hormones augment GSIS only above a certain glucose threshold, which is slightly above the normal glucose range. This ensures that incretin hormones stimulate GSIS only when glucose levels are high, while they are ineffective when insulin levels are below a certain threshold 7 8.Activation of the GLP-1 receptor, which is highly expressed on pancreatic β-cells, stimulates 2 -distinct intracellular signaling pathways: a) the cAMP-protein kinase A branch and b) the cAMP-EPAC2 (EPAC=exchange protein activated by cAMP) branch. While the EPAC2 branch is considered to mediate GLP-1 effects on first-phase GSIS, the PKA branch is necessary for the former branch to be active 9 10. However, how these 2 branches interplay and converge and how their effects on insulin secretion and insulin vesicle exocytosis are coordinated is poorly understood.Thus, at the outset of our studies we have a poorly understood intracellular interplay of cAMP-dependent signaling pathways, which - when stimulated - restore glucose-dependent first phase and augment second phase insulin secretion in the ailing β-cells of T2DM. 相似文献

Catecholamine inhibition of Ca2+-induced insulin secretion from electrically permeabilised islets of Langerhans 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Noradrenaline (1-10 microM) inhibited Ca2+-induced insulin secretion from electrically permeabilised islets of Langerhans with an efficacy similar to that for inhibition of glucose-induced insulin secretion from intact islets. The inhibition of insulin secretion from permeabilised islets was blocked by the alpha 2-adrenoreceptor antagonist, yohimbine. Adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) did not relieve the noradrenaline inhibition of Ca2+-induced secretion from the permeabilised islets, although noradrenaline did not affect the secretory responses to cAMP at substimulatory (50 nM) concentrations of Ca2+. These results suggest that catecholamines do not inhibit insulin secretion solely by reducing B-cell adenylate cyclase activity, and imply that one site of action of noradrenaline is at a late stage in the secretory process. 相似文献
