1 21814221 Variants in USF1, ABCC8, ISL1 and KCNJ11 showed nominal association, while haplotypes in these genes were significantly associated. rs3812704 upstream of NEUROG3 significantly increased risk for type 2 diabetes in normal-weight/lean subjects (OR=1.68 (95%CI 1.25-2.24), P=4.9 × 10(-4)).
2 8425669 IAPP at 10(-7) M reduced insulin release by 32% from 7.1 (95% Cl 5.8-8.6) to 4.8 (3.0-7.5) fmol.min-1 x islet-1 (P = 0.046, n = 7).
3 8425669 IAPP at 1.5 x 10(-6) M reduced insulin release by 62% from 6.5 (3.4-12.3) to 2.5 (1.4-4.4) fmol.min-1 x islet-1 (P = 0.001, n = 6).
4 7912209 The islet-1 (Isl-1) gene encodes a protein that binds to the enhancer region of the insulin gene.
5 7789634 Islet-1 (Isl-1) is a unique transcription factor that binds to the enhancer region of the insulin gene.
6 11978636 In fact, overexpression of both Pdx-1 and Isl-1 in IEC-6 cells (Isl-YK-12, -14, and -15 cells) gave them the ability to express insulin without exposure to betacellulin.
7 16873704 We examined the association of variants in genes encoding several transcription factors (TCF1, TCF2, HNF4A, ISL1, IPF1, NEUROG3, PAX6, NKX2-2, NKX6-1, and NEUROD1) and genes encoding the ATP-sensitive K(+) channel subunits Kir6.2 (KCNJ11) and SUR1 (ABCC8) with type 2 diabetes in a Japanese cohort of 2,834 subjects.
8 17022998 Here, we showed that Isl1 could enhance the HNF4alpha-mediated activation of transcription of the HNF1alpha, PPARalpha and insulin I promoters.
9 17022998 Isl1 interacted with the HNF4alpha AF-2 but also required the HNF4alpha carboxy-terminal F domain for optimal interaction and transcriptional synergy.
10 17022998 Moreover, Isl1 could mediate the recruitment of the cofactor CLIM2 resulting in a further transcriptional enhancement of the HNF1alpha promoter activity.
11 19737569 The mRNA levels of transcription factors Islet-1 and Pax6 were reduced significantly in the small intestine, showing that Foxa1 and Foxa2 impact on a transcription factor network in the enteroendocrine lineage.
12 21099304 We have also identified MafA, a potent Insulin gene regulator, as the first direct target of Isl-1 in ?-cells.
13 19502415 In addition, MafA, a potent regulator of the Insulin gene and beta-cell function, was identified as a direct transcriptional target of Isl-1.
14 10677506 Recent genetic studies have identified a network of transcription factors, including Pdx1, Isl1, Pax4, Pax6, NeuroD, Nkx2.2, and Hlxb9, regulating the development of islet cells at different stages, but the molecular mechanisms controlling the specification of pancreatic endocrine precursors remain unknown. neurogenin3 (ngn3) is a member of a family of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors that is involved in the determination of neural precursor cells in the neuroectoderm. ngn3 is expressed in discrete regions of the nervous system and in scattered cells in the embryonic pancreas.
15 10868931 The earliest sign of alpha-cell development appears to be Brain4 expression, which apparently precedes Islet-1 (ISL1) expression.
16 15561947 We do not however find any expression of the late-stage genes (Pax4, Pax6, Isl-1, and MafA) related to beta-cell development, and the cells do not secrete insulin upon the glucose challenge.
17 21829621 Using HIT-T15 and primary adult islet cells as cell models, we show that ISL1 promoted adult pancreatic islet cell proliferation with increased c-Myc and CyclinD1 transcription, while knockdown of ISL1 increased the proportion of cells in G(1) phase and decreased the proportion of cells in G(2)/M and S phases.
18 21829621 Further investigation shows that ISL1 activated both c-Myc and CyclinD1 transcription through direct binding on their promoters.
