Glucose (16.7 mM)-induced insulin secretion from isolated pancreatic islets of rats was inhibited by nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidinone (phenidone), 3-amino-1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-pyrazoline (BW755C), 2,3,5-trimethyl-6-(12-hydroxy-5,10-dodecadiynyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (AA861), and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT). Indomethacin and aspirin, however, failed to inhibit the glucose-induced insulin secretion but rather tended to enhance it. The glucose-induced insulin secretion was inhibited by 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) (50 microM), 15-hydroperoxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HPETE) (100 microM), and 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) (100 microM), but not by 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) (100 microM). Exogenous 5-HETE (10 microM) induced significant insulin secretion in a low glucose (3.3 mM) medium. Racemic 5-HETE also showed insulinotropic effect in a concentration-dependent manner with the concentrations 20 microM or above, whereas 12-HETE, 15-HETE, 15-HPETE, 5,12-dihydroxy-6,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, 5-hydroxy-6-glutathionyl-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, 5-hydroxy-6-cysteinylglycinyl-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, prostaglandin E2, and prostaglandin F2 alpha failed to induce insulin secretion. Although significant insulin release was observed with arachidonic acid (greater than or equal to 100 microM), reduce cell viability was evident at 200 microM. When the 10,000 X g supernatant of isolated pancreatic islet homogenate was incubated with [3H]arachidonic acid at 37 degrees C in the presence of GSH and Ca2+, and the labeled metabolites then extracted with ethyl acetate and subjected to reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography, several radioactive peaks, coeluted with authentic 15-, 12-, and 5-HETE, were observed. The radioactive peaks were completely suppressed by the addition of either NDGA, BW755C, or phenidone into the medium. The results support our contention i.e. the involvement of lipoxygenase product(s) in the secretory mechanism of insulin, and further suggest that 5-lipoxygenase system may play a role.  相似文献

The roles of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms in cholinergic potentiation of glucose-induced insulin secretion were investigated in rat pancreatic islets. Western-blot analysis showed the presence of PKC-alpha, betaII, delta, epsilon, eta, and zeta, but not PKC-betaI, gamma, or iota, in the islets. Carbachol (CCh) caused translocations of PKC-alpha, betaII, delta, and epsilon from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. CCh facilitated 7-mM glucose-induced insulin secretion from isolated rat islets. The CCh-stimulated insulin secretion was significantly suppressed by the generic PKC inhibitor chelerythrine. In contrast, Go 6976, an inhibitor of conventional PKC isoforms, had no effect on the insulin secretion stimulated by CCh, although it significantly inhibited that induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results suggest that the novel PKC isoforms activated by CCh, i.e., PKC-delta and/or epsilon, participate in the stimulatory effect of CCh on insulin secretion.  相似文献

A Ca2+-activated and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity which phosphorylates predominantly two endogenous proteins of 57kDa and 54kDa was found in a microsomal fraction from islet cells. Half-maximal activation of the protein kinase occurs at approx. 1.9 microM-Ca2+ and 4 micrograms of calmodulin/ml (250 nM) for phosphorylation of both protein substrates. Similar phosphoprotein bands (57kDa and 54kDa) were identified in intact islets that had been labelled with [32P]Pi. Islets prelabelled with [32P]Pi and incubated with 28 mM-glucose secreted significantly more insulin and had greater incorporation of radioactivity into the 54 kDa protein than did islets incubated under basal conditions in the presence of 5 mM-glucose. Thus the potential importance of the phosphorylation of these proteins in the regulation of insulin secretion is indicated both by activation of the protein kinase activity by physiological concentrations of free Ca2+ and by correlation of the phosphorylation of the substrates with insulin secretion in intact islets. Experiments undertaken to identify the endogenous substrates indicated that this calmodulin-dependent protein kinase may phosphorylate the alpha- and beta-subunits of tubulin. These findings suggest that Ca2+-stimulated phosphorylation of islet-cell tubulin via a membrane-bound calmodulin-dependent protein kinase may represent a critical step in the initiation of insulin secretion from the islets of Langerhans.  相似文献

Alloxan was found to inhibit a Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase recently identified in pancreatic islets. This effect of alloxan may be specifically related to the inhibitory action of alloxan on insulin secretion from islets since: 1) in islet-cell subcellular fractions, alloxan at micromolar concentrations irreversibly inhibits the Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity; 2) pretreatment of intact islets with alloxan at concentrations that inhibit insulin secretion similarly inhibits the protein kinase activity; and 3) alloxan inhibition of both insulin secretion and protein kinase activity in intact islets can be prevented by D-glucose. This inhibition by alloxan appears to be a direct effect on the enzyme since alloxan treatment of either the islet homogenate or the microsomal fraction enriched in protein kinase activity inhibited the kinase activity with similar concentration dependence. These results suggest that alloxan-induced inhibition of a Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase may represent a critical inhibitory site which mediates alloxan-induced inhibition of insulin secretion.  相似文献

It has been known that glutamate, generated by glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), acts as an intracellular messenger in insulin exocytosis in pancreatic beta cells. Here we demonstrate the correlation of GDH activity and insulin release in rat pancreatic islets perfused with 5'-deoxypyridoxal. Perfusion of islets with 5'-deoxypyridoxal, an effective inhibitor of GDH, reduced the islet GDH activity at concentration-dependent manner. Treatment of 5'-deoxypyridoxal up to 2 mM did not affect the cell viability. There was reduction in V(max) values on average about 60%, whereas no changes in K(m) values for substrates and coenzymes were observed. The concentration of GDH on the Western blot analysis and the level of GDH mRNA remained unchanged. The concentration of glutamate decreased by 52%, whereas the concentration of 2-oxoglutarate increased up to 2.3-fold in the presence of 5'-deoxypyridoxal. 5'-Deoxypyridoxal had no effects on inhibition by GTP and activation by ADP or L-leucine of islet GDH. In parallel with the inhibition of GDH activity, perfusion of islets with 5'-deoxypyridoxal reduced insulin release up to 2.5-fold. Although precise mechanism for correlation between GDH activity and insulin release remains to be studied further, our results suggest a possibility that the inhibitory effect of 5'-deoxypyridoxal on islet GDH activity may correlate with its effect on insulin release.  相似文献

Metformin, a drug widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, has recently been shown to act on skeletal muscle and liver in part through the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Whether metformin or the satiety factor leptin, which also stimulates AMPK in muscle, regulates this enzyme in pancreatic islets is unknown. We have recently shown that forced increases in AMPK activity inhibit insulin secretion from MIN6 cells (da Silva Xavier G, Leclerc I, Varadi A, Tsuboi T, Moule SK, and Rutter GA. Biochem J 371: 761-774, 2003). Here, we explore whether 1) glucose, metformin, or leptin regulates AMPK activity in isolated islets from rodent and human and 2) whether changes in AMPK activity modulate insulin secretion from human islets. Increases in glucose concentration from 0 to 3 and from 3 to 17 mM inhibited AMPK activity in primary islets from mouse, rat, and human, confirming previous findings in insulinoma cells. Incubation with metformin (0.2-1 mM) activated AMPK in both human islets and MIN6 beta-cells in parallel with an inhibition of insulin secretion, whereas leptin (10-100 nM) was without effect in MIN6 cells. These studies demonstrate that AMPK activity is subject to regulation by both glucose and metformin in pancreatic islets and clonal beta-cells. The inhibitory effects of metformin on insulin secretion may therefore need to be considered with respect to the use of this drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

Free fatty acids in isolated pancreatic islets have been quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after stimulation with insulin secretagogues. The fuel secretagogue D-glucose has been found to induce little change in islet palmitate levels but does induce the accumulation of sufficient unesterified arachidonate by mass to achieve an increment in cellular levels of 38-75 microM. Little of this free arachidonate is released into the perifusion medium, and most remains associated with the islets. Glucose-induced hydrolysis of arachidonate from islet cell phospholipids is reflected by release of the arachidonate metabolite prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) from perifused islets. Both the depolarizing insulin secretagogue tolbutamide (which is thought to act by inducing closure of beta-cell ATP-sensitive K+ channels and the influx of extracellular Ca2+ through voltage-dependent channels) and the calcium ionophore A23187 have also been found to induce free arachidonate accumulation within and PGE2 release from islets. Surprisingly, a major fraction of glucose-induced eicosanoid release was found not to require Ca2+ influx and occurred even in Ca(2+)-free medium, in the presence of the Ca(2+)-chelating agent EGTA, and in the presence of the Ca2+ channel blockers verapamil and nifedipine. Exogenous arachidonic acid was found to amplify the insulin secretory response of perifused islets to submaximally depolarizing concentrations of KCl, and the maximally effective concentration of arachidonate was 30-40 microM. These observations suggest that glucose-induced phospholipid hydrolysis and free arachidonate accumulation in pancreatic islets are not simply epiphenomena associated with Ca2+ influx and that arachidonate accumulation may play a role in the signaling process which leads to insulin secretion.  相似文献

Polymyxin B (0.01-1 mM), a polyamine antibiotic, inhibited both phorbol ester- and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from isolated rat islets of Langerhans. This inhibition was rapidly reversible. Assay of the cytosolic protein kinase C by measurement of incorporation of labelled phosphate into a histone substrate demonstrated the presence of activity in islet extracts which could be stimulated by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and inhibited by polymyxin B. These results suggest that protein kinase C plays a role in glucose-induced insulin secretion.  相似文献

Pancreatic islet homogenates display protein kinase C activity. Although the rate of histone phosphorylation by islet homogenates is not enhanced by Ca2+ alone, the Ca2+ ion markedly augments reaction velocity in the presence of phosphatidylserine and at low concentrations (20 nM--0.2 microM) of the tumor-promoting agent 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). At a higher concentration (2.0 microM), TPA stimulates histone phosphorylation even in the absence of Ca2+. Ca-calmodulin also stimulates protein phosphorylation but the latter effect is apparently mediated by a Ca-calmodulin-responsive protein kinase distinct from the protein kinase C. In the presence of phosphatidylserine, retinoic acid (0.1 microM) fails to cause any obvious change in protein kinase C activity. However, in the 0.1-100.0 microM range, retinoic acid confers a limited responsiveness to TPA in the absence of phosphatidylserine. These findings support the view that Ca2+ may regulate protein phosphorylation in the pancreatic B-cell through several distinct pathways.  相似文献

The influence of down-regulation of protein kinase C on glucose-induced insulin secretion was studied. A 22-24 h exposure of mouse pancreatic islets to the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA; 0.16 microM) in RPMI 1640 culture medium (8.3 mM-glucose, 0.43 mM-Ca2+) abolished TPA (0.16 microM)-induced insulin secretion and led to a potentiation of phase 1 and a decrease in phase 2 of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Thus, although the total insulin release during 40 min of perfusion with glucose (16.7 mM) (45-85 min) was unaffected, the percentage released during phase 1 (45-55 min) was increased from 12.9 +/- 1.5 (4)% in controls to 35.8 +/- 3.9 (4)% in TPA-treated islets (P less than 0.01), and the percentage released during phase 2 (65-85 min) was decreased from 63.2 +/- 3.9 (4)% to 35.3 +/- 1.4 (4)% (P less than 0.005). In contrast, TPA exposure in TCM 199 medium (5.5 mM-glucose, 1.26 mM-Ca2+) caused a total abolition of both phases 1 and 2 of glucose-induced secretion. However, inclusion of the alpha 2-adrenergic agonists adrenaline (10 microM) or clonidine (10 microM), or lowering of the Ca2+ concentration in TCM 199 during down-regulation, preserved and potentiated phase 1 of glucose-induced secretion. Furthermore, perifusion of islets in the presence of staurosporine (1 microM), an inhibitor of protein kinase C, potentiated phase 1 and inhibited phase 2 of glucose-induced secretion. In addition, down-regulation of protein kinase C potentiated phase 1 and inhibited phase 2 of carbamoylcholine (100 microM)-induced insulin secretion at 3.3 mM-glucose, and abolished the potentiating effect of carbamoylcholine (100 microM) at 16.7 mM-glucose. These results substantiate a role for protein kinase C in insulin secretion, and suggest that protein kinase C inhibits phase 1 and stimulates phase 2 of both glucose-induced and carbamoylcholine-induced insulin secretion.  相似文献

The relationship between glucose-induced insulin secretion and metabolism of inositol phospholipid was investigated by means of an islet perifusion method and direct measuring of inositol phosphates after sonicating the islets. The results showed that the time course of inositol phospholipid breakdown is coincident with the first phase of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Analysis of the effluent perifusate as well as the water soluble inositol-containing substance after sonication of stimulated islets revealed that most of the metabolite of inositol phospholipid is inositol-triphosphate, the hydrolysis product of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate. On the other hand, perifusion of islets with exogenous inositol-triphosphate showed a monophasic and dose-dependent response of insulin secretion. Thus, the initial process of glucose stimulation is accompanied with the formation of inositol-triphosphate, which is a possible candidate for the triggering of first phase insulin secretion.  相似文献

The role of the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC) in cholinergic potentiation of insulin release was investigated by measuring islet PKC activity and insulin secretion in response to carbachol (CCh), a cholinergic agonist. CCh caused a dose-dependent increase in insulin secretion from cultured rat islets at stimulatory glucose concentrations (greater than or equal to 7 mM), with maximal effects observed at 100 microM. Short-term exposure (5 min) of islets to 500 microM-CCh at 2 mM- or 20 mM-glucose resulted in redistribution of islet PKC activity from a predominantly cytosolic location to a membrane-associated form. Prolonged exposure (greater than 20 h) of islets to 200 nM-phorbol myristate acetate caused a virtual depletion of PKC activity associated with the islet cytosolic fraction. Under these conditions of PKC down-regulation, the potentiation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by CCh (500 microM) was significantly decreased, but not abolished. CCh stimulated the hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids in both normal and PKC-depleted islets, as assessed by the generation of radiolabelled inositol phosphates. These results suggest that the potentiation of glucose-induced insulin secretion by cholinergic agonists is partly mediated by activation of PKC as a consequence of phospholipid hydrolysis.  相似文献

Glyceraldehyde-induced insulin release from rat islets of Langerhans was not affected following down-regulation of protein kinase C (PKC) by prolonged exposure to the tumour-promoting phorbol ester, 4 beta-phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Glyceraldehyde did not cause translocation of islet PKC under conditions in which PMA stimulated redistribution of enzyme activity. These results indicate that activation of PKC is not required for glyceraldehyde stimulation of insulin secretion from normal rat islets.  相似文献

1,2-Diacylglycerol, protein kinase C, and pancreatic enzyme secretion   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
To determine the role of 1,2-diacylglycerol (1,2-DAG) and protein kinase C in pancreatic enzyme secretion, we measured the effect of various pancreatic secretagogues on the cellular mass of 1,2-DAG and amylase release in dispersed pancreatic acini from the guinea pig. In addition, we measured the effect of a recently described protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) (Hidaka, H., Inagaki, M., Kawamoto, S., and Sasaki, Y. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 5036-5041), on secretagogue-stimulated amylase release from the acini. Cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK-OP), cholecystokinintetrapeptide, and carbachol each increased 1,2-DAG 2-3-fold but the increases occurred only with concentrations of these secretagogues that were supramaximal for amylase release and that had an inhibitory effect on stimulated amylase release. Supramaximal concentrations of bombesin stimulated only a small increase in 1,2-DAG and did not cause inhibition of stimulated amylase release. When the action of carbachol was terminated with atropine or CCK-OP with dibutyryl cyclic GMP, stimulated amylase release ceased immediately but cellular 1,2-DAG required at least 15 min to return to the basal level. Increasing cytosolic free Ca2+ with the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, in Ca2+-containing incubation media augmented amylase release stimulated by 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate but inhibited amylase release stimulated by CCK-OP, carbachol, and bombesin without decreasing the cellular content of 1,2-DAG. H-7 inhibited protein kinase C activity in a pancreatic homogenate but augmented amylase release from acini stimulated by either CCK-OP, carbachol, or 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These findings indicate that 1,2-DAG and protein kinase C do not have a stimulatory role in pancreatic stimulus-secretion coupling but may have an inhibitory one.  相似文献

The relative contributions of arachidonic acid and protein kinase C during GnRH-stimulated LH release were investigated in cultured rat anterior pituitary cells. Maximal or near-maximal concentrations of arachidonic acid or the phorbol ester, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, were less effective than a maximal dose of GnRH in stimulating LH release. However, the effect of a combination of arachidonic acid and phorbol ester was equivalent with that of GnRH. The protein kinase C inhibitor, retinal, significantly reduced GnRH- and phorbol-induced, but not arachidonic acid-stimulated, LH release. The lipoxygenase inhibitors, 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid and nordihydroguaiaretic acid, partially inhibited GnRH- and arachidonic acid-stimulated, but not phorbol-induced, LH secretion. Simultaneous addition of retinal and either lipoxygenase inhibitor completely abolished LH responses elicited by GnRH, as well as by combined treatment with arachidonic acid and the phorbol ester. These results suggest that hormone release is mediated by phospholipid-dependent mechanisms that are coordinated during the stimulation of LH secretion by GnRH.  相似文献

The potentiation of glucose-stimulated insulin release induced by 100 nM-12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) was inhibited by clomiphene, an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PK C), in a dose-dependent manner. Clomiphene at concentrations up to 50 microM had a modest inhibitory action (27%) on insulin release stimulated by 10 mM-glucose alone, but had no effect on the potentiation of insulin release induced by forskolin. Islet PK C activity, associated with a particulate fraction, was stimulated maximally by 100 nM-TPA. This stimulation was blocked by clomiphene in a dose-dependent manner, with 50% inhibition at 30 microM. Incubation of intact islets with TPA after preincubation with [32P]Pi and 10 mM-glucose to label intracellular ATP resulted primarily in enhanced phosphorylation of a 37 kDa protein (mean value, +/- S.E.M., 36,700 +/- 600 Da; n = 7). This increased phosphorylation was blocked by the simultaneous inclusion of clomiphene. Subcellular fractionation revealed the presence of the 37 kDa phosphoprotein in a 24,000 g particulate fraction of islet homogenates. Neither clomiphene nor TPA affected the rate of glucose oxidation by islets. These results show that the phosphorylation state of a 37 kDa membrane protein parallels the modulation of insulin release induced by TPA and clomiphene and support a role for PK C in the insulin-secretory mechanism.  相似文献

Amylin, an islet amyloid peptide secreted by the pancreatic beta cell, has been proposed as a humoral regulator of islet insulin secretion. Four separate preparations of amylin were tested for effects on hormone secretion in both freshly isolated and cultured rat islets and in HIT-T15, hamster insulinoma cells. With all three experimental models, exposure to human amylin acid and human and rat amylin at concentrations as high as 100 nM had no significant effect on rates of insulin or glucagon secretion. These observations suggest that amylin, even at concentrations appreciably higher than those measured in peripheral plasma, is not a significant humoral regulator of islet hormone secretion.  相似文献

Microdissected beta-cell-rich pancreatic islets of non-inbred ob/ob mice were used in studies of how perchlorate (CIO4-) affects stimulus-secretion coupling in beta-cells. CIO4- at 16 mM potentiated D-glucose-induced insulin release, without inducing secretion at non-stimulatory glucose concentrations. The potentiation mainly applied to the first phase of stimulated insulin release. In the presence of 20 mM-glucose, the half-maximum effect of CIO4- was reached at 5.5 mM and maximum effect at 12 mM of the anion. The potentiation was reversible and inhibitable by D-mannoheptulose (20 mM) or Ca2+ deficiency. CIO4- at 1-8 mM did not affect glucose oxidation. The effects on secretion were paralleled by a potentiation of glucose-induced 45Ca2+ influx during 3 min. K+-induced insulin secretion and 45Ca2+ uptake were potentiated by 8-16 mM-CIO4-. The spontaneous inactivation of K+-induced (20.9 mM-K+) insulin release was delayed by 8 mM-CIO4-. The anion potentiated the 45Ca2+ uptake induced by glibenclamide, which is known to depolarize the beta-cell. Insulin release was not affected by 1-10 mM-trichloroacetate. It is suggested that CIO4- stimulates the beta-cell by affecting the gating of voltage-controlled Ca2+ channels.  相似文献

Isolated pancreatic islets from the rat have been demonstrated by stable isotope dilution-mass spectrometric methods to synthesize the 12-lipoxygenase product 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) in amounts of 1.7 to 2.8 ng per 10(3) islets. No detectable amounts of 5-HETE and only trace amounts of 15-HETE could be demonstrated by these methods. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and BW755C have been demonstrated to inhibit islet 12-HETE synthesis and also to inhibit glucose-induced insulin secretion. Inhibition of insulin secretion and of 12-HETE synthesis exhibited similar dependence on the concentration of these compounds. Eicosa-5,8,11,14-tetrynoic acid (ETYA) also inhibited glucose-induced insulin secretion, as previously reported, at concentrations which inhibit islet 12-HETE synthesis. Exogenous 12-HETE partially reversed the suppression of glucose-induced insulin secretion by lipoxygenase inhibitors, but exogenous 12-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE), 15-HPETE, 5-HPETE, 15-HETE, or 5-HETE did not reverse this suppression. These observations argue against the recently suggested hypothesis that islet synthesis of 5-HETE modulates insulin secretion. Suppression of glucose-induced insulin secretion by ETYA, BW755C and NDGA may be due to inhibition of the islet 12-lipoxygenase by these compounds. The possibility that other processes involved in glucose-induced insulin secretion are inhibited by ETYA, BW755C and NDGA cannot yet be excluded.  相似文献
