1 21855631 Almost all cells in PDX1(+) clusters co-express FOXA2, HNF1ß, HNF6 and SOX9 proteins, and many cells also express CPA1, NKX6.1 and PTF1a.
2 8922372 Among the two important transcription factors for insulin gene expression, IEF1 is present both in alpha- and beta-cells, but PDX-1/IPF1/STF-1/IDX-1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, is present in beta-cells but not in alpha-cells.
3 8922372 The exogenous expression of PDX-1 in alphaTC1.6 cells alone could induce islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) mRNA expression in the cells but not the expression of insulin, glucokinase, or GLUT2 gene.
4 8922372 However, when betacellulin was added to the medium, the PDX-1-expressing alphaTC1.6 cells, but not the control alphaTC1.6 cells, came to express insulin and glucokinase mRNAs.
5 8922372 These observations demonstrate the potency of PDX-1 for the expression of the insulin, glucokinase, and IAPP genes and suggest that certain regulatory factors, which can partially be modified by betacellulin, also contribute to the beta-cell specificity of gene expression.
6 8923459 These data demonstrate that the murine GLUT2 promoter is controlled by the PDX-1 homeobox factor through the identified GLUT2TAAT motif.
7 11117522 PDX-1 binds to and transactivates the promoters of several physiologically relevant genes within the beta-cell, including insulin, glucose transporter 2, glucokinase, and islet amyloid polypeptide.
8 11117522 This study focuses on the mechanisms by which PDX-1 activates insulin gene transcription.
9 11117522 These results suggest that the PDX-1 transactivation domain is specifically required for appropriate regulation of insulin enhancer function in beta-cells.
10 11181516 Nuclear IDX-1 protein levels on Western blots were increased by ectopic Hh expression, thereby providing a mechanism for Hh-mediated regulation of the insulin promoter.
11 11181516 We propose that Hh signaling activates the insulin gene promoter indirectly via the direct activation of IDX-1 expression.
12 11270685 Nes2y cells, both variants showed about a 50% reduction in their ability to activate insulin gene transcription compared to wild-type IPF1, as measured by reporter gene assay.
13 11289043 Finally, we demonstrated that the receptor for GLP-1 is constitutively expressed by ARIP and PANC-1 cells and that the mRNA level for this transcript was increased by cellular transfection with human IDX-1.
14 11423476 Transgenic (TG) mice were generated in which PDX-1 was expressed in the exocrine pancreas using the exocrine-specific elastase-1 promoter.
15 11781323 The expression of PDX-1 and glucose transporter 2 in islets from PDX-1(+/-) mice was reduced to 68 and 55%, respectively, whereas glucokinase expression was not significantly altered.
16 11781323 These results indicate that a modest reduction in PDX-1 impairs several events in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (such as NAD(P)H generation, mitochondrial function, and/or mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+)) and that PDX-1 is important for normal function of adult pancreatic islets.
17 11904435 The loss in beta-cell function in Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-3beta(+/-) mice was associated with decreased expression of Nkx-6.1, glucokinase (Gck), aldolase B (aldo-B), and insulin, whereas Nkx2.2, Nkx-6.1, Glut-2, Gck, aldo-B, the liver isoform of pyruvate kinase, and insulin expression was reduced in Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-1alpha(+/-) mice.
18 11912494 In vitro studies have shown that Pbx1 regulates the activity of Ipf1 (also known as Pdx1), a ParaHox homeodomain transcription factor required for the development and function of the pancreas in mice and humans.
19 11961501 Further-more, GLP-1 upregulates expression of b-cell genes (GLUT2, glucokinase, insulin, and PDX-1) and promotes b-cell neogenesis and differentiation of ductal cells into insulin secreting cells.
20 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.
21 12011047 These results were correlated with changes in the binding of the important transcription factor PDX-1 to the insulin promoter; adenoviral overexpression of DN-JNK preserved PDX-1 DNA binding activity in the face of oxidative stress, whereas wild type JNK overexpression decreased PDX-1 DNA binding activity.
22 12684063 That the effects of Mad on insulin expression were mediated through PDX-1 was further substantiated by studies showing inhibition of insulin promoter activation by Mad in the presence of mutated PDX-1 binding site.
23 12684063 Such regulation of insulin expression by Mad with modulation of PDX-1 expression and DNA binding activity could offer useful therapeutic and/or experimental tools to promote insulin production in appropriate cell types.
24 12783165 The glucagonoma cell line InR1G9 was transduced with a Pdx1-encoding lentiviral vector and insulin and glucagon mRNA levels were analysed by northern blot and real-time PCR.
25 12783165 In glucagonoma cells transduced with a Pdx1-encoding lentiviral vector, insulin gene expression was induced while glucagon mRNA levels were reduced by 50 to 60%.
26 12783165 In the heterologous cell line BHK-21, Pdx1 inhibited by 60 to 80% the activation of the alpha-cell specific element G1 conferred by Pax-6 and/or Cdx-2/3.
27 12783165 Although Pdx1 could bind three AT-rich motifs within G1, two of which are binding sites for Pax-6 and Cdx-2/3, the affinity of Pdx1 for G1 was much lower as compared to Pax-6.
28 12783165 In addition, Pdx1 inhibited Pax-6 mediated activation through G3, to which Pdx1 was unable to bind.
29 12783165 Since Pdx1 interacts directly with Pax-6 and Cdx-2/3 forming heterodimers, we suggest that Pdx1 inhibits glucagon gene transcription through protein to protein interactions with Pax-6 and Cdx-2/3.
30 12829640 The pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1), also known as IDX-1/STF-1/IPF1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, plays a central role in regulating pancreatic development and insulin gene transcription.
31 12829640 These data suggest that PDX-1 protein transduction could be a safe and valuable strategy for enhancing insulin gene transcription and for facilitating differentiation of ductal progenitor cells into insulin-producing cells without requiring gene transfer technology.

33 15001545 PDX-1 interacts with multiple transcription factors and coregulators, including the coactivator p300, to activate the transcription of the insulin gene and other target genes within pancreatic beta-cells.
34 15001545 Several mutant PDX-1 proteins that are associated with heritable forms of diabetes in humans, in particular the mutant P63fsdelC, exhibited increased binding to a carboxy-terminal segment of p300 in the setting of decreased DNA-binding activities, suggesting that sequestration of p300 by mutant PDX-1 proteins may be an additional mechanism by which insulin gene expression is reduced in heterozygous carriers of pdx-1(ipf-1) mutations.
35 15001545 Impairment of interactions between PDX-1 and p300 in pancreatic beta-cells may limit insulin production and lead to the development of diabetes.
36 15044356 GLP-1 receptor activation enhances beta-cell proliferation and promotes islet neogenesis via activation of pdx-1 expression.
37 15144884 However, the role of Pdx-1 in the regulation of insulin release is not well established.
38 15144884 In the present study, we identified a new target of Pdx-1 involved in insulin release.
39 15144884 Pdx-1 positively regulates the transcription of the gene encoding synaptotagmin 1 (Syt1) (a Ca(2+)-sensor that plays a central role in insulin release) through Pdx-1-binding sites within the 3' regulatory region of the Syt1 gene.
40 15153417 These events appear to correlate with pdx-1 gene expression and its ability to bind the insulin gene.
41 15151993 To elucidate beta-cell dysfunction, PDX1 was suppressed by transduction of rat islets with an adenoviral construct encoding a dominant negative form of PDX1.
42 15151993 In conclusion, loss of PDX1 function alters expression of mitochondrially encoded genes through regulation of TFAM leading to impaired insulin secretion.
43 15562255 GLUT4+/-;PDX-1+/- mice developed beta-cell hyperplasia but failed to increase their beta-cell insulin content.
44 15765408 We demonstrate that surviving pancreatic exocrine cells repress the terminal exocrine gene program and induce genes normally associated with undifferentiated pancreatic progenitor cells such as Pdx1, E-cadherin, beta-catenin, and Notch components, including Notch1 , Notch2 , and Jagged2 .
45 15743769 Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays revealed that the decrease in insulin transcription was associated with decreases in the occupancies of Pdx-1 and p300 at the proximal insulin promoter.
46 15743769 Our results suggest that Pdx-1 directly regulates insulin transcription through formation of a complex with transcriptional coactivators on the proximal insulin promoter.
47 15756539 Mutations in genes encoding HNF-4alpha, HNF-1alpha and IPF-1/Pdx-1 are associated with, respectively, MODY subtypes-1, -3 and -4.
48 15756539 In addition, induction of Pdx-1 suppressed the expression of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R), which resulted in marked reduction of both basal and GLP-1 agonist exendin-4-stimulated cellular cAMP levels.
49 15756539 The severely impaired proinsulin processing combined with decreased GLP-1R expression and cellular cAMP content, rather than metabolic defects or altered exocytosis, may contribute to the beta cell dysfunction induced by Pdx-1 deficiency.
50 16166097 Most interestingly, we demonstrated in vitro that the DNA-PK phosphorylates PDX-1 on threonine 11.
51 16166097 However, in response to radiation, which activates DNA-PK, a second form of the PDX-1 protein appears rapidly.
52 16166097 In correlation with this degradation, we observed a subsequent reduction in the activation of the insulin promoter and a decrease in PDX-1-mediated gene expression, i.e. glut2 and glucokinase.
53 16166097 Our study demonstrates that radiation, through the activation of DNA-PK, may regulate PDX-1 protein expression.
54 16280646 When oxidative stress was induced in vitro in beta cells, the insulin gene promoter activity and mRNA levels were suppressed, accompanied by the reduced activity of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1) (also known as IDX-1/STF-1/IPF1), an important transcription factor for the insulin gene.
55 16280646 Furthermore, the addition of a dominant-negative form of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibited the oxidative stress-induced PDX-1 translocation, suggesting an essential role of JNK in mediating the phenomenon.
56 16280646 Taken together, the oxidative stress-mediated activation of the JNK pathway leads to nucleocytoplasmic translocation of PDX-1 and thus is likely involved in the progression of beta-cell dysfunction found in diabetes.
57 16309850 Incretin hormones have trophic effects on beta cell function that can aid prevention and treatment of diabetes. cAMP is the primary mediator of these effects, and has been shown to potentiate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, promote proper beta cells differentiation by increasing expression of the crucial transcription factor PDX-1, and prevent beta cell apoptosis. cGMP's role in beta cell function has received far less scrutiny, but there is emerging evidence that it may have a trophic impact on beta cell function analogous to that of cAMP.
58 16380477 Hepatocyte nuclear factor-6 (HNF6) is a key player in this network, because it controls the initiation of the expression of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1), the earliest marker of pancreatic precursor cells.
59 16489446 Stimulation of the Ipf1 promoter by rosiglitazone was unaffected by the presence of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma antagonist GW9662.
60 16505238 Exposure of INS-1 beta-cells to elevated glucose leads to reduced insulin gene transcription, and this is associated with diminished binding of pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor 1 (PDX-1) and mammalian homologue of avian MafA/l-Maf (MafA).
61 16505238 Low-potency PARP inhibitors restored MafA mRNA and protein levels, but they had no affect on PDX-1 protein levels or binding activity.
62 16611688 Robust stabilization of beta-catenin during early organogenesis drives changes in hedgehog and Fgf10 signaling and induces a loss of Pdx1 expression in early pancreatic progenitor cells.
63 16630561 Moreover, overexpression of SHB as well as culture of EBs in presence of the angiogenic growth factors PDGF or VEGF enhanced the expression of PDX-1 and/or insulin mRNA.
64 16630561 It is concluded that SHB and angiogenic factors promote the development of cells expressing PDX-1 and insulin in EBs and that such cells can be separated by FACS.
65 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.
66 16887799 We used DNA binding (gel shift) assays and Western immunoblots to demonstrate that cellular levels of the transcription factor PDX-1, normally decreased by glucotoxicity, were preserved with CDK5 inhibition, as was the binding of PDX-1 to the insulin promoter.
67 16887799 Analyses of nuclear and cytoplasmic PDX-1 protein levels revealed that CDK5 inhibition restores nuclear PDX-1, without affecting its cytoplasmic concentration, suggesting that CDK5 regulates the nuclear/cytoplasm partitioning of PDX-1.
68 16968152 These nestin-positive cell-derived ICCs expressed numerous beta-cell lineage genes, including insulin; Glut-2; pancreatic duodenal homebox-1 protein (PDX-1); islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP); neurogenin 3 (ngn3); and alpha, gamma, and delta cell gene markers.
69 16968152 GLP-1 has been shown to be involved in stimulating the signaling pathways downstream of the transcription factor PDX-1, by increasing its protein and messenger RNA levels.
70 16968152 We concluded that GLP-1 induced differentiation of nestin-positive progenitor embryonic stem cells into insulin-producing cells, which was achieved by upregulation of PDX-1 expression.
71 17003335 Consistent with our in vitro results, IL-1beta knockout mice displayed glucose intolerance along with a decrease in islet Fas, FLIP, Pax4, and PDX-1 transcripts.
72 17003479 We demonstrate that under these experimental conditions the exocrine acinar cells lose their differentiated characteristics: expression of the acinar transcription factors p48/Ptf1alpha and Mist1 is decreased or lost, whereas expression of the embryonic transcription factor Pdx1 is increased.
73 16772326 Correspondingly, SREBP-1c DN largely corrected decreases in the expression of the transcription factors Pdx-1 and MafA but did not affect the abnormalities in Pax6, Arx, hepatic nuclear factor-1alpha (HNF1alpha), HNF3beta/Forkhead box-a2 (Foxa2), inducible cyclic AMP early repressor (ICER), or transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) expression observed in ZDF islets.
74 17054456 Nevertheless, in a subset of patients with NIPHS, there exists some, as yet undefined, pancreatic humoral/paracrine factor(s) other than proinsulin, amylin, PDX-1, Nkx-6.1 and possibly glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that are capable of inducing the INGAP gene and, if activated, will initiate ductal proliferation and islet neogenesis.
75 17272496 Concomitantly, downregulation of the pancreas marker Pdx1 was recorded in activin-treated EBs, a phenomenon that was prevented by antagonizing Hedgehog signaling with Hedgehog interacting protein.
76 17383157 Ectopic PDX-1 expression induced pancreatic gene expression and insulin production in the mice livers.
77 17457565 Sequential treatment with serum, activin and RA highly upregulated the expression of the genes encoding forkhead box protein A2 (FOXA2), SRY-box containing gene 17 (SOX17), pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1) and homeobox HB9 (HLXB9).
78 17457565 The population of pancreatic endodermal cells that produced PDX1 was significantly increased at the expense of ectodermal differentiation, and a subset of the PDX1-positive cells also produced FOXA2, caudal-type homeobox transcription factor 2 (CDX2), and nestin (NES).
79 17457565 After transplantation, the PDX1-positive cells further differentiated into mature cell types producing insulin and glucagon, resulting in amelioration of hyperglycaemia and weight loss in streptozotocin-treated diabetic mice.
80 17416680 Although both groups on the high-fat diet developed insulin resistance, beta IRKO, but not beta IGFRKO, mice exhibited poor islet growth consistent with insulin-stimulated phosphorylation, nuclear exclusion of FoxO1, and reduced expression of Pdx-1.
81 17490618 Tungstate treatment induced phosphorylation and subsequent activation of p38 and PI3K which in turn are implicated in tungstate PDX-1 nuclear localization and activation.
82 17592437 Mutations in the IPF1 gene cause MODY4; IPF1 D76N is a polymorphism, which inhibits the insulin promoter and decreases insulin-secretion.
83 17784830 By day 34, Pdx1+ cells comprise between 5% and 20% of the total cell population and Insulin gene expression is up-regulated, with release of C-peptide into the culture medium.
84 17510498 FoxO1 is expressed in a subset of pancreatic duct cells, in which insulin and/or Pdx1 are occasionally expressed.
85 17510498 FoxO1 inhibits beta cell proliferation through suppression of Pdx1 by competing with FoxA2 and protects against beta cell failure induced by oxidative stress through NeuroD and MafA induction.
86 17991720 Both peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) and pancreatic/duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) have been reported to be associated with glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), but the relationship between PPARalpha and PDX-1 is not yet fully understood.
87 17991720 In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that PPARalpha regulates the expression of PDX-1 in beta-cells.
88 17991720 In turn, this enhanced expression led to an increase in PDX-1 mRNA and nuclear protein, as well as DNA binding activity of PDX-1 with the insulin promoter.
89 17991720 Treatment with MK886 inhibited expression of PPARalpha, blocking PPARalpha-regulated PDX-1 expression, and the downstream transcription events of PDX-1.
90 17764693 Control SDT rats showed a disappearance of the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) expression of the pancreases with the development of diabetes.
91 17938503 In mature beta-cells, PDX-1 transactivates the insulin and other genes involved in glucose sensing and metabolism such as GLUT2 and glucokinase.
92 18468239 These data indicate that cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans are required for PDX-1 internalization and that PDX-1 protein transduction could be a valuable strategy for inducing insulin expression in pancreatic stem/progenitor cells without requiring gene transfer technology.
93 18544709 CBP-S436A islets exhibited elevated cyclin A2, reduced p27, and no changes in D-type cyclins, PDX-1, or Skp2.
94 18544709 PDX-1 knockdown reduced exendin-4-stimulated cAMP synthesis and cyclin A2 transcription.
95 18544709 Cyclin A2 is required for beta-cell proliferation, exendin-4 stimulates cyclin A2 expression via the cAMP pathway, and exendin-4 stimulation of cAMP requires PDX-1.
96 18593820 TNF-alpha pretreatment did not change the expression levels of insulin, PDX-1, glucose transporter 2, glucokinase, K(ATP) channels, Ca(2)(+) channels, and exocytotic molecules and, furthermore, did not reduce the glucose-stimulated ATP level.
97 18593849 We investigated whether Pax6 and Pdx1 activate the human GIP promoter in control IEC-6 cells and GIP-expressing STC-1 cells.
98 18593849 GIP promoter activity was enhanced in IEC-6 cells by exogenous Pax6 or Pdx1 and diminished in STC-1 cells by inhibition of endogenous Pax6 or Pdx1 by dominant-negative forms.
99 18593849 EMSA studies indicated that Pax6 and Pdx1 bind to this proximal sequence of the human GIP promoter.
100 18593849 Our findings indicate that concomitant expression of Pax6 and Pdx1 is important for GIP expression.
101 18439098 Coexpression of Pdx1 and BTC significantly increased the number of nestin-positive epithelium-like progenitors and islet-like spheroids which differentiated from MSCs.
102 18718916 We have now studied mice depleted of PPARgamma within the pancreas (PANC PPARgamma(-/-)) created by a Cre/loxP recombinase system, with Cre driven by the pdx-1 promoter.
103 18718916 Electrophoretic mobility supershift assays with nuclear extracts from beta-cell lines and mouse islets, also in vitro translated PPARgamma and retinoid X receptor, and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis demonstrated specific binding of PPARgamma and retinoid X receptor to the human and mouse pdx-1 x PPREs.
104 18718916 In summary, we have presented in vivo and in vitro evidence showing PPARgamma regulation of pdx-1 transcription in beta-cells, plus our results support an important regulatory role for PPARgamma in beta-cell physiology and thiazolidinedione pharmacology of type 2 diabetes.
105 18951876 In this study, human insulin promoter was activated by Smad2, Smad3 and the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1) in the ALK7 pathway.
106 18951876 These results indicate that one of the direct target genes of Nodal and Activin AB signals is the insulin gene in pancreatic beta-cells and that PDX-1 is directly involved in the ALK7-Smad pathway.
107 18535489 At 6 wk of development (wd) insulin promoting factor 1 (IPF1) was expressed in the majority of epithelial cells forming tubular structures while GR was present in the mesenchyme, suggesting an early role of glucocorticoids, before endocrine and exocrine differentiation.
108 18535489 The first insulin cells did not express IPF1 or GR.
109 19082668 Ghrelin treatment increased insulin levels, insulin-positive islet cell number, and 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine and PDX-1 staining, whereas ghrelin antagonist administration resulted in significant decreases in these parameters.
110 19264802 Moreover, Glis3 physically and functionally interacts with Pdx1, MafA and NeuroD1 to modulate Ins2 promoter activity.
111 19371350 Combination treatment also increased expression of insulin and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1), maintained normal beta-cell/alpha-cell distribution in islets and restored pancreatic insulin content to levels comparable to non-diabetic mice.
112 19379129 Moreover, the presence of inductive factors in the Matrigel plus exendin-4 led to an increase in Pdx1 and endocrine genes, such as insulin, islet amyloid polypeptide, glucagon, the glucose transporter GLUT2, chromogranin A and the convertases PC1/3 and PC2 were also detected.
113 19501121 The percentage of cells expressing Pdx-1 alone or together with INGAP or insulin increased significantly in ducts.
114 19576197 When the MafA transgene is expressed in Pdx1+ pancreatic progenitors, both pancreatic mass and proliferation of progenitors are reduced, at least partially due to induction of cyclin kinase inhibitors p27 and p57.
115 19576197 Thus, in mice, MafA expression in Pdx1+ pancreatic progenitors is not sufficient to specify insulin+ cells but in fact deters pancreatic development and the differentiation of endocrine cells.
116 19656489 Islet transduction with dominant-negative Pdx1 (RIPDN79PDX1) impairs mitochondrial metabolism and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS).
117 19656489 Thus, the genetic control by the beta cell-specific factor Pdx1 of the ubiquitous gene TFAM maintains beta cell mtDNA vital for ATP production and normal GSIS.
118 19805515 Gene expression profiling and immunofluorescent staining demonstrated that the expression of pancreatic hormones and several transcription factors important in endocrine cell development, including Ngn3, MafA, and Pdx1, were significantly decreased in the developing pancreata of Glis3(zf/zf) mutant mice.
119 19837872 PGE(2)-mediated JNK1 activation, through dephosphorylation of Akt and FOXO1, leads to nuclear accumulation of FOXO1 and nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of PDX1, finally resulting in defective GSIS in pancreatic beta-cells.
120 19245309 RT-PCR analyses showed that native ADSC expressed insulin, glucagon, and NeuroD genes that were up-regulated following Pdx1 transduction.
121 19843526 Here, we show that KLF11, an SP/Krüppel-like (SP/KLF) transcription factor, mutated in French maturity onset diabetes of the young patients (MODY7), regulates Pdx-1 transcription in beta cells through two evolutionarily conserved GC-rich motifs in conserved Area II, a control region essential to islet beta cell-enriched expression.
122 19843526 KLF11 specifically associates with Area II in chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, while preventing binding to GC1- and/or GC2-compromised Pdx1-driven reporter activity in beta cell lines.
123 19933995 We further found that cytokine-induced activation of NF-kappaB and extracellular signal-related kinase 1/2 (ERK(1/2)) was significantly attenuated and that the expression of pancreatic duodenal hemeobox-1 (PDX-1), glucokinase, and insulin-1 was increased as a result of n-3 PUFA production.
124 19576699 Oxidant-provoked JNK activation induces nuclear export of the PDX-1 transcription factor, required for expression of glucokinase and other beta cell proteins.
125 19965940 Decreased IRS2 attenuated the phosphorylation of Akt and, subsequently, PDX-1 protein levels were lowered in olanzapine-treated rats.
126 20206178 During early stages of development, exposure of cells to noggin and retinoid acid, followed by FGF10, generated pancreatic cells (PDX1+; 50%-80%) that coexpressed FOXA2, HNF6, and SOX9.
127 20382773 On day 70, plasma glucose levels, plasma and pancreatic insulin levels, pancreatic islet area and number, insulin and pancreatic/duodenal homeobox-1 (Pdx1) gene expression, and antiapoptotic BCL2 protein expression were determined.
128 20382773 Finally, in STZ-treated animals, UAG and Ob up-regulated insulin and Pdx1 mRNA and increased the expression of BCL2 similarly to AG.
129 20448145 Transgenic expression of GDNF in mouse pancreata was associated with increased numbers of Ngn3-expressing pancreatic cells and higher beta-cell mass at embryonic day 18 (E18), as well as higher beta-cell proliferation and Pdx1 expression in beta-cells at E18 and postnatal day 1.
130 20448145 Chromatin immunoprecipitation studies using the HIT-T15 beta-cell line demonstrated that GDNF can influence Pdx1 gene expression by enhancing the binding of Sox9 and neuroD1/beta(2) to the Pdx1 promoter.
131 20479245 Thus, cyclophilin D and the mitochondrial permeability transition are critical regulators of beta-cell death caused by Pdx1 insufficiency.
132 20424162 IL-1beta also causes increased expression of C/EBP-beta and a reduction of MafA, NFATc2, and Pdx-1 expression in beta cells.
133 20547979 This could be attributed to the higher transcription of Pdx1 in cytokine-treated islets that expressed IRS-2(5A).
134 20637728 Homeodomain interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2) phosphorylates PDX1 in vitro; phosphate incorporation substantially decreases in PDX1 S269A mutant.
135 15944145 This study was designed to assess whether palmitate alters the expression and binding activity of the key regulatory factors pancreas-duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1), MafA, and Beta2, which respectively bind to the A3, C1, and E1 elements in the proximal region of the insulin promoter.
136 15944145 Combined adenovirus-mediated overexpression of PDX-1 and MafA in islets completely prevented the inhibition of insulin gene expression by palmitate.
137 15944145 These results demonstrate that prolonged exposure of islets to palmitate inhibits insulin gene transcription by impairing nuclear localization of PDX-1 and cellular expression of MafA.
138 18199433 Furthermore, pancreata from MafB deficient (kr(ENU)/kr(ENU)) mice exhibited reduced number of cells expressing insulin, glucagon, PDX-1 and MafA, with only a minor reduction in MafB expressing cells.
139 18199433 Thus, Pax6 acts upstream of MafB, which in turn may trigger the expression of insulin and regulate the PDX-1 and MafA expression required for beta-cell maturation.
140 18338074 In mature beta-cells, PDX-1 transactivates insulin and other beta-cell-related genes such as GLUT2 and glucokinase.
141 19758361 In addition, the expression of lipogenic genes and UCP-2 were upregulated, but AMPK, IRS-2, PDX-1, GLUT-2 and Bcl-2 were downregulated in the exposed cells.
142 20649634 Moreover, hIAPP induced FOXO1 but inhibited pdx-1 nucleus translocation.
143 20589757 Moreover, down-regulation of Pdx-1 could cause the low expression of GLP-1R with/without palmitate treatment.
144 20934404 We show here that ChREBP inactivation in clonal pancreatic MIN6 ?-cells results in an increase in Pdx-1 expression at low glucose and to a small, but significant, increase in Ins2, GcK and MafA gene expression at high glucose concentrations.
145 20934404 Conversely, adenovirus-mediated over-expression of ChREBP in mouse pancreatic islets results in decreases in Pdx-1, MafA, Ins1, Ins2 and GcK mRNA levels.
146 21076579 The effects of adenovirus-mediated overexpression of TRB3 on insulin, PDX-1 and MafA gene expression in INS-1 cells were measured by Northern blot analysis.
147 21076579 Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of TRB3 also decreased PDX-1 mRNA expression, but did not influence MafA mRNA expression.
148 21108535 Indeed, the complementation of NKX6.1 by ectopic PDX-1 expression substantially and specifically promoted insulin expression and glucose regulated processed hormone secretion to a higher extent than that of PDX-1 alone, without increasing the reprogrammed cells.
149 21093089 The expression of PDX-1, a downstream mediator of GLP-1 action, was increased in islets of STZ-DA mice compared to STZ-NC mice.
150 21270265 Inhibition of GIP or its receptor also led to a decrease in the number of Pdx-1-positive and sox9-positive cells in the cultured embryonic pancreas.
151 20980260 STAT1, but not IRF-1, mediates the cytokine-induced loss of the differentiated ?-cell phenotype, as indicated by decreased insulin, Pdx1, MafA, and Glut2.
152 20827659 The critical role of pdx-1 in stimulating certain endocrine pancreatic properties in RSCs was further confirmed upon the introduction of an expression construct for pdx-1 which markedly induced insulin and somatostatin.
153 20886041 Dispersed human pancreatic islets and MIN6 beta-cells were infected with a dual reporter lentivirus containing both eGFP driven by the insulin promoter and mRFP driven by the pdx1 promoter.
154 20886041 Using this approach and 5 replicate screens, we identified 7 extracts that reproducibly changed insulin and/or pdx1 promoter activity from a library of 1319 marine invertebrate extracts.
155 21190012 After infection with adenovirus expressing MAFA, Pdx1 or green fluorescent protein (Gfp), P2 rat islets were evaluated by RT-PCR and insulin secretion with static incubation and reverse haemolytic plaque assay (RHPA).
156 21190012 At P2 most beta cell genes were expressed at about 10% of adult, but by P7 Pdx1 and Neurod1 no longer differ from adult; by contrast, Mafa expression remained significantly lower than adult through P21.
157 21190012 Overexpression of Pdx1 increased Mafa, Neurod1, glucokinase (Gck) mRNA and insulin content but failed to enhance glucose responsiveness.
158 21335550 We conclude that nuclear import of FoxO1 contributes to the suppression of Pdx1 and Ins2 gene expression at low glucose, the latter via a previously unsuspected and direct physical interaction with the Ins2 promoter.
159 20626638 The pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) expression might also be different because it links glucose metabolism to the regulation of insulin gene transcription in the pancreas. ?
160 21385937 In this study, we found that DEX markedly increased FoxO1 mRNA and protein expression, whereas it decreased PDX-1 mRNA and protein expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner.
161 21385937 Further study showed that FoxA2 was involved in regulation of FoxO1 and PDX-1 expression in DEX-induced pancreatic ?-cells dysfunction.
162 21385937 Moreover, we found that DEX increased the activity of FoxA2 binding to the FoxO1 promoter but decreased the activity of FoxA2 binding to the PDX-1 promoter of RINm5F cells.
163 21385937 Knockdown of FoxA2 by RNA interference inhibited FoxO1 expression and restored PDX-1 expression in pancreatic ?-cells treated with DEX.
164 19237535 We conclude that PPAR-gamma agonists exert a direct effect in diabetic islets to reduce endoplasmic reticulum stress and enhance Pdx1 levels, leading to favorable alterations of the islet gene chromatin architecture.
165 21393239 In contrast, overexpression of either IL-1 receptor antagonist or shuttling-deficient PDX1 restored ?-cell survival and function and PDX1 nuclear localization.
166 21115832 Here, we identify 9cRA in mouse pancreas by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), and show that 9cRA decreases with feeding and after glucose dosing and varies inversely with serum insulin. 9cRA reduces glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in mouse islets and in the rat ?-cell line 832/13 within 15 min by reducing glucose transporter type 2 (Glut2) and glucokinase (GK) activities. 9cRA also reduces Pdx-1 and HNF4? mRNA expression, ?8- and 80-fold, respectively: defects in Pdx-1 or HNF4? cause maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY4 and 1, respectively), as does a defective GK gene (MODY2).
167 20811152 Here, we show that Pcif1 targets Pdx1 for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.
168 20811152 These findings indicate that in adult mouse ? cells, Pcif1 limits Pdx1 protein accumulation and thus the expression of insulin and other gene targets important in the maintenance of ? cell mass and function.
169 21333726 RT-PCR results indicated that HDP could modulate the hepatic glucose metabolism and gluconeogenesis by up/down-regulating the expression of rate-limiting enzymes (glucokinase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and glucose-6-phosphatase) in liver and up-regulating the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1), insulin-1 and insulin-2 expressions in pancreas.
170 8866550 In contrast to the insulin gene, however, neither the synergistic effect of the Pan1 expression on the IPF1-induced promoter activation nor the glucose responsiveness of the activity was observed for the GK gene promoter.
171 9000703 These data suggest that 1) the loss of GLUT2 protein associated with hyperglycemia is at least partially explained by reduced levels of the GLUT2 gene transcripts; 2) the reduction of beta-cell insulin content during chronic hyperglycemia may not be completely due to degranulation (reduced levels of gene transcripts may play a role); and 3) the reduction in the transcription factor IDX-1 raises the possibility that dysregulation of transcription factors may contribute to the abnormal beta-cell function found in states of chronic hyperglycemia.
172 9453241 The transcriptional control of the gene in beta-cells involves at least two islet-specific DNA-binding proteins, GTIIa and PDX-1, which also transactivates the insulin, somatostatin and glucokinase genes.
173 9453241 We show that the decreased GLUT2 mRNA expression correlates with a decrease of the GTIIa DNA-binding activity, whereas the PDX-1 binding activity is increased.
174 9460079 Notably, three MODY genes encode transcription factors implicated in the regulation of insulin gene transcription: hepatocyte nuclear factors 1 alpha and 4 alpha, and islet duodenum homeobox-1 (IDX-1, also known as IPF-1).
175 9604866 Since the STF-1, but not the RIPE-3b1 activator, gene has been cloned, we examined its restorative effects on insulin gene promoter activity after reconstitution with STF-1 cDNA.
176 9604866 Compared with basal levels, we observed a trend toward an increase in insulin promoter activity in intermediate passage cells with STF-1 transfection (1.43-fold) that became a significant increase when E2-5 was cotransfected (1.78-fold).
177 9604866 In late passage cells, transfection of STF-1 alone significantly stimulated a 2.2-fold increase in the insulin promoter activity.
178 9604866 Control studies in glucotoxic betaTC-6 cells deficient in RIPE-3b1 activator but not STF-1 did not demonstrate an increase in insulin promoter activity after STF-1 transfection.
179 9604866 We conclude that loss of RIPE-3b1 activity precedes loss of STF-1 activity in glucotoxic HIT-T15 cells and that defective promoter activity can be partially restored by STF-1 transfection and predict that eventual cloning of the RIPE-3b1 gene will allow cotransfection studies with both factors that will allow full reconstitution of insulin promoter activity.
180 9616224 Impaired functions of the transactivating factors islet duodenum homeobox-1 (IDX-1) and RIPE3b-binding proteins have been implicated in the pathological downregulation of insulin gene transcription by high glucose levels in pancreatic beta cell lines in vitro, and, similarly, the exposure of pancreatic islets to fatty acids decreases IDX-1 expression.
181 9616224 Our findings indicate that the differential dysregulation of both IDX-1 and C/EBPbeta, in response to sustained hyperglycemia or hyperlipidemia, may be involved in the impairment of insulin gene expression during the manifestation of diabetes mellitus.
182 9649577 This circumstance suggests that the mechanism of diabetes in these individuals may be due not only to reduced gene dosage, but also to a dominant negative inhibition of transcription of the insulin gene and other beta cell-specific genes regulated by the mutant IPF-1.
183 10078550 Islet duodenal homeobox 1 (IDX-1/PF-1/STF-1/PDX-1), a homeodomain protein that transactivates the insulin promoter, has been shown by targeted gene ablation to be required for pancreatic development.
184 10485916 Addition of NAC or AG to the culture medium at least partially prevented decreases in insulin mRNA, insulin gene promoter activity, DNA binding of two important insulin promoter transcription factors (PDX-1/STF-1 and RIPE-3b1 activator), insulin content, and glucose-induced insulin secretion.
185 10499550 We investigated the possibility that GLP-1 may be having its long-term pleiotropic effects through a hitherto unknown regulation of PDX-1.
186 10499550 The results of electrophoretic mobility shift experiments showed that PDX-1 protein binding to the Al element of the rat insulin II promoter was also increased 2 h post treatment with GLP-1.
187 10545531 Functional transactivation assays of these IPF-1 mutant isoforms in a beta-pancreatic tumor cell line transfected with a transcriptional reporter and IPF-1 expression plasmids demonstrate a significant inhibition of basal insulin promoter activity (stronger with the InsCCG243 mutant).
188 10567373 In addition, they exhibit impaired expression of the homeodomain transcription factor PDX1, which is a key component of the signaling pathway linking nutrient metabolism to the regulation of insulin gene expression.
189 10567702 PDX-1 has been suggested to be involved in the glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription.
190 10580420 To investigate if this sensitivity represents an acquired trait during beta-cell maturation, we used two in vitro cultured cell systems: 1) a pluripotent glucagon-positive pre-beta-cell phenotype (NHI-glu) that, after in vivo passage, matures into an insulin-producing beta-cell phenotype (NHI-ins) and 2) a glucagonoma cell-type (AN-glu) that, after stable transfection with pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1), acquires the ability to produce insulin (AN-ins).
191 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.
192 10720084 We conclude that variants in IPF-1 are not a common cause of MODY or late-onset type 2 diabetes in the Caucasian population, and that in terms of insulin transcription both the N76 and the T140 mutations are likely to represent functionally normal IPF-1 variants with no direct role in the pathogenesis of MODY or late-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus.
193 10851133 We used an islet-specific regulatory element (pdx1(PB)) from pancreatic/duodenal homeobox (pdx1) gene to maintain HNF6 expression in endocrine cells beyond 18.5 d.p.c.
194 10868931 In this study, we have identified a subset of the PDX1+ epithelial cells that are marked by expression of Neurogenin3 (Ngn3).
195 10868963 These effects are partially mediated through the activity of a homeodomain transcription factor, PDX-1, which binds to four sites within the human insulin gene promoter.
196 10868963 However, in NES2Y cells stably transfected with PDX-1 (NES-PDX-1), glucose exhibited a marked stimulatory effect on both the insulin promoter (5+/-0.2-fold, n = 6) and insulin mRNA levels (4.8+/-0.5-fold, n = 4).
197 10868963 These results demonstrate that glucose modulation of insulin mRNA levels is dependent on the activity of PDX-1 and that these effects are independent of changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations.
198 10905482 Here, we show that the insulinotropic hormone glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1, which is produced by the intestine, enhances the pancreatic expression of the homeodomain transcription factor IDX-1 that is critical for pancreas development and the transcriptional regulation of the insulin gene.
199 10905482 Thus, in addition to stimulating insulin secretion, GLP-1 stimulates the expression of the transcription factor IDX-1 while stimulating beta-cell neogenesis and may thereby be an effective treatment for diabetes.
200 10909415 We demonstrated that PDX-1 is sufficient to activate the endogenous, otherwise silent, mouse insulin 1 and 2 and pro-insulin convertase gene expression in liver.
201 11075995 This outcome demonstrates that the pathway for IFN-gamma regeneration requires the participation of Pax4, Pax6, and Pdx-1.
202 11108273 Our current results in both young and old rats demonstrate that treatment caused an up-regulation of pancreatic-duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1) expression in islets and total pancreas, induced pancreatic cell proliferation, and beta-cell neogenesis.
203 11237222 PDX-1, a transcriptional factor activator of these three genes, also is upregulated in the insulinoma cell line in aged rats and diabetic mice following treatment with GLP-1.
204 11316746 In addition, GLP-1 has been shown, both in vitro and in vivo, to be involved in regulation of the transcription factor, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 protein (PDX-1), by increasing its total protein levels, its translocation to the nucleus and its binding and resultant increase in activity of the insulin gene promoter in beta-cells of the pancreas.
205 11316746 Three separate inhibitors of PKA, and a cAMP antagonist, inhibited the effects of GLP-1 on PDX-1.
206 11316746 Furthermore, forskolin, (which stimulates adenylyl cyclase and insulin secretion), and 8-Bromo-cAMP, (an analog of cAMP which also stimulates insulin secretion), mimicked the effects of GLP-1 on PDX-1.
207 11457885 Mutations in the homeodomain transcription factor IDX-1, a critical regulator of pancreas development and insulin gene transcription, confer a strong predisposition to the development of diabetes mellitus in humans.
208 11457885 Doxycycline-induced impairment of IDX-1 expression reduced activation of the Insulin promoter but activated the Idx-1 promoter, suggesting that pancreatic beta cells regulate IDX-1 transcription to maintain IDX-1 levels within a narrow range.
209 11574405 Glucose and insulin regulate PDX-1 by way of a signaling pathway involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) and SAPK2/p38.
210 11574405 Glucose- and insulin-stimulated translocation of PDX-1 to the nucleoplasm was inhibited by wortmannin and SB 203580, indicating that a pathway involving PI 3-kinase and SAPK2/p38 was involved; translocation was unaffected by PD 098959 and rapamycin, suggesting that neither mitogen-activated protein kinase nor p70(s6k) were involved.
211 11574405 These results demonstrated that PDX-1 shuttles between the nuclear periphery and nucleoplasm in response to changes in glucose and insulin concentrations and that these events are dependent on PI 3-kinase, SAPK2/p38, and a nuclear phosphatase(s).
212 11697865 We observed an increased mRNA expression of insulin, proendocrine gene neurogenin 3, and beta-cell transcription factor Pdx1 when the cells were grown on bovine collagen I gels.
213 11994408 To investigate whether beta cell failure in Irs2(-/-) mice might be related to dysfunction of MODY-related transcription factors, we measured the expression of Pdx1 in islets from young Irs2(-/-) mice.
214 11994408 Our results suggest that dysregulation of Pdx1 might represent a common link between ordinary type 2 diabetes and MODY.
215 12049785 Despite these differences, the early proglucagon-positive cells express, as do mature alpha cells, the POU domain transcription factor Brn-4, and do not express the beta cell factor pdx-1.
216 12099699 Pdx-1 is also able to bind and activate transcription from the A3 element of the human insulin gene promoter in yeast.
217 12124776 We explored the sequence of activation of certain transcription factors known to be essential for the beta cell phenotype: PDX-1, Beta2/NeuroD, and hepatocyte nuclear factor 3beta (HNF3beta).
218 12124776 EMSA results indicated that EX-4 caused a 12-fold increase in HNF3beta binding to PDX-1 promoter area II.
219 12124776 Differentiation to insulin-producing cells was also seen when Capan-1 cells were transfected with pdx-1, with 80% of these cells expressing insulin 3 days after transfection.
220 12145164 By exogenous expression of the PDX-1 gene, IEC-6 cells started expressing multiple beta-cell-specific genes such as amylin, glucokinase, and Nkx6.1, which were not found in the original IEC-6 cells.
221 12145164 When the PDX-1(+) IEC-6 cells were kept in vitro, treatment with betacellulin could also confer insulin gene expression to them.
222 12145169 Prior in vitro analysis has suggested that the forkhead/winged helix transcription factor Foxa2 (formerly HNF-3beta) is a major upstream regulator of Pdx1, a homeobox gene essential for pancreatic development.
223 12145169 We demonstrated that the deletion of Foxa2 in beta-cell-specific knockout mice results in downregulation of Pdx1 mRNA and subsequent reduction of PDX-1 protein levels in islets.
224 12145169 These data represent the first in vivo demonstration that Foxa2 acts upstream of Pdx1 in the differentiated beta-cell.
225 12150938 Glucose-regulated transcription of the insulin gene is in part mediated via the homeobox transcription factor PDX-1.
226 12150938 We show that PDX-1 is able to bind to two TAAT-boxes in the GAD(67) promoter and that functional disruption of these two PDX-1 binding elements has an additive effect in severely impairing glucose responsiveness of the GAD(67) promoter.
227 12150938 These data strongly suggest that PDX-1 is involved in glucose-regulated expression of GAD(67).
228 12488434 We report that haploinsufficiency for the forkhead transcription factor Foxo1 reverses beta cell failure in Irs2(-/-) mice through partial restoration of beta cell proliferation and increased expression of the pancreatic transcription factor pancreas/duodenum homeobox gene-1 (Pdx1).
229 12488434 We show that Foxo1 acts as a repressor of Foxa2-dependent (Hnf-3beta-dependent) expression from the Pdx1 promoter.
230 12488434 We propose that insulin/IGFs regulate beta cell proliferation by relieving Foxo1 inhibition of Pdx1 expression in a subset of cells embedded within pancreatic ducts.
231 12503852 Glucose, the main physiological regulator of insulin secretion, also regulates insulin gene transcription through PDX-1.
232 12697734 Mice with 50% Pdx1, a homeobox gene critical for pancreatic development, had worsening glucose tolerance with age and reduced insulin release in response to glucose, KCl, and arginine from the perfused pancreas.
233 12697734 Surprisingly, insulin secretion in perifusion or static incubation experiments in response to glucose and other secretagogues was similar in islets isolated from Pdx1(+/-) mice compared with Pdx1(+/+) littermate controls.
234 12697734 Bcl(XL) and Bcl-2 expression were reduced in Pdx1(+/-) islets.
235 12697734 These results suggest that an increase in apoptosis, with abnormal regulation of islet number and beta cell mass, represents a key mechanism whereby partial PDX1 deficiency leads to an organ-level defect in insulin secretion and diabetes.
236 12756298 We explored whether fetal human progenitor liver cells (FH) could be induced to differentiate into insulin-producing cells after expression of the pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) gene, which is a key regulator of pancreatic development and insulin expression in beta cells.
237 12756298 Immortalized FH cells expressing Pdx1 activated multiple beta-cell genes, produced and stored considerable amounts of insulin, and released insulin in a regulated manner in response to glucose.
238 12869553 We have also demonstrated the expression of upstream genes of Pdx-1, such as HNF3beta and HNF1alpha, as well as its downstream genes, including insulin, Glut2, and Nkx6.1, to be well preserved.
239 14633849 The addition of a dominant negative form of c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibited oxidative stress-induced PDX-1 translocation, suggesting an essential role of JNK in mediating this phenomenon.
240 15028942 It has been shown that PDX-1 is required for maintaining the pancreatic islet functions by activating gene transcriptions including insulin, somatostatin (SST), islet amyloid polypeptide, glucose transporter type 2, and glucokinase.
241 15047618 The results showed that pdx-1 expression clearly enhanced the expression of the insulin 2, somatostatin, Kir6.2, glucokinase, neurogenin3, p48, Pax6, PC2, and HNF6 genes in the resulting differentiated cells.
242 15047618 Thus, exogenous expression of pdx-1 should provide a promising approach for efficiently producing insulin-secreting cells from human ES cells for future therapeutic use in diabetic patients.
243 15121856 Functionally, PCIF1 inhibits PDX-1 transactivation of established target gene promoters in a specific and dose-dependent manner that requires critical amino acids in the PDX-1 C terminus.
244 15180990 Gel retardation assays revealed that another islet-enriched transcription factor, namely Pdx-1, binds four non-consensus elements in the IGRP promoter.
245 15331541 In vitro treatment of embryonic pancreata with dexamethasone, a glucocorticoid agonist, induced a decrease of insulin-expressing cell numbers and a doubling of acinar cell area, indicating that glucocorticoids favored acinar differentiation; in line with this, expression of Pdx-1, Pax-6, and Nkx6.1 was downregulated, whereas the mRNA levels of Ptf1-p48 and Hes-1 were increased.
246 15514704 As a possible mechanism underlying the phenomena, expression of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1), an important transcription factor for the insulin gene, was more clearly visible in the nuclei of islet cells after the antioxidant treatment.
247 15514704 Furthermore, oxidative stress induces nucleocytoplasmic translocation of PDX-1 through activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway, which leads to suppression of insulin gene expression.
248 15585742 RT-PCR analysis showed that Pdx1-positive cells from day 8 cultures expressed the early endoderm markers Ptf1a, Foxa2, Hnf4alpha, Hnf1beta, and Hnf6, consistent with the notion that they corresponded to the early pancreatic endoderm present in the embryonic day 9.5 mouse embryo.
249 15605246 These results suggest that the final beta cell maturation accompanied by increased IL-1beta sensitivity is, in part, dependent upon the expression of genes regulated by Pdx-1 and Nkx6.1.
250 15631623 An additional winged-helix protein, Foxo1, contributes to pancreatic beta-cell function by regulating the Pdx1 gene, which is required for pancreatic development in cooperation with Foxa2.
251 15664997 In this study, we show that MafA overexpression, together with PDX-1 (pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1) and NeuroD, markedly increases insulin gene expression in the liver.
252 15677506 Similarly, Ex-4 failed to increase levels of plasma insulin, pancreatic insulin content, and pancreatic insulin mRNA transcripts in beta-cell(Pdx1-/-) mice.
253 15677506 Moreover, Ex-4 increased the levels of insulin and amylin mRNA transcripts and augmented glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in islets from beta-cell(Pdx1+/+) mice but not in beta-cell(Pdx1-/-) islets.
254 15793239 In this study, we showed that a modified form of the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor 1 (PDX-1) carrying the VP16 transcriptional activation domain (PDX-1/VP16) markedly increases insulin biosynthesis and induces various pancreas-related factors in the liver, especially in the presence of NeuroD or neurogenin 3 (Ngn3).
255 15793239 Thus PDX-1/VP16 expression, together with NeuroD or Ngn3, markedly induces insulin gene transcription and ameliorates glucose tolerance.
256 15896300 We previously reported that exogenous PDX-1 protein can permeate cells and induce insulin gene expression in progenitor cells.
257 15899968 PDX-1-treated human liver cells express insulin, store it in defined granules, and secrete the hormone in a glucose-regulated manner.
258 15935394 The release of insulin, the expression of preproinsulin (PPI), glucose transporter2 (GLUT2) and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1), and levels of intracellular free Ca++([Ca++]i) were measured in rat pancreatic islets treated with or without high concentrations of FFA (0.1 and 1.0 mM oleic acid) for 24 h.
259 16055439 Insulin gene expression is regulated by pancreatic beta cell-specific factors, PDX-1 and BETA2/E47.
260 16435884 Conditional expression of Smad7 in adult Pdx1+ cells reduced detectable beta cell expression of MafA, menin, and other factors that regulate beta cell function.
261 16504534 A more promising gene therapy approach has been to express pancreatic endocrine developmental factors, such as PDX-1, NeuroD/BETA2 and Neurogenin 3, to promote differentiation of non-endocrine cells towards a beta cell or islet phenotype, enabling these cells to synthesize and secrete insulin in a glucose-regulated manner.
262 16543365 Notably, augmenting Egr-1 expression levels in insulin-producing cells increased the mRNA and protein expression levels of pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1), a major transcriptional regulator of glucose-responsive activation of the insulin gene.
263 16543365 Increasing Egr-1 expression levels enhanced PDX-1 binding to insulin promoter sequences, whereas mutagenesis of PDX-1-binding sites reduced the capacity of Egr-1 to activate the insulin promoter.
264 16543365 We propose that changes in Egr-1 expression levels in response to extracellular signals, including glucose, can regulate PDX-1 expression and insulin production in pancreatic beta-cells.
265 16612121 To investigate whether this is also the case in human pancreatic development, we studied the expression of the glucocorticoid receptor and that of the transcription factor Pdx-1 on pancreatic specimens from very early to late stages of development of the human embryo.
266 16936209 RNA of Pdx-1, Glut-2, and Gck was detectable by RT-PCR in whole thymus but not in the clones, suggesting thymic proinsulin expression is Pdx-1 independent and that Pdx-1, Glut-2, and Gck are likely expressed in the thymus as antigens, not as regulatory molecules.
267 16962573 These results reveal a role for distal cis-regulatory elements in achieving the correct level of extra-pancreatic Pdx1 expression, which is necessary for the production of duodenal GIP cells and stomach gastrin cells.
268 17095531 In this study, in order to examine the relationship between O-GlcNAcylation of proteins and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in noninsulin-dependent type (type 2) diabetes, we investigated the level of O-GlcNAcylation of proteins, especially that of PDX-1, and the expression of O-GlcNAc transferase in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats, which are an animal model of type-2 diabetes.
269 17126328 PCIF1 is a TRAF and POZ domain containing nuclear factor that interacts with and inhibits transactivation of pancreatic homeodomain transcription factor PDX-1.
270 17126328 Within PCIF1, the TRAF and POZ domains are both required for physical and functional interaction with the C-terminus of PDX-1, whereas the C-terminal domain of PCIF1 directs its nuclear localization.
271 17126328 Understanding the functional roles of PCIF1 domains may have application to therapeutic beta-cell replacement strategies involving PDX-1 for the treatment of diabetes.
272 17131142 The PDX1-transduced hepatocytes expressed several pancreatic transcription factors related to early pancreatic endocrine development (endogenous Pdx1, neurogenic differentiation factor 1 [Neurod1], and NK6 transcription factor related, locus 1 [Nkx6-1]) as well as the late-stage pancreatic transcription factors (paired box gene 4 [Pax4], paired box gene 6 [Pax6], and v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A [Mafa]).
273 17150967 Deficits in PDX-1 expression result in insulin deficiency and hyperglycemia.
274 17150967 Egr-1 increased the transcriptional activation of Areas I and II, despite the absence of Egr-1 recognition sequences within this promoter segment, suggesting that Egr-1 also can regulate the pdx-1 promoter indirectly.
275 17150967 Egr-1 increased, and a dominant-negative Egr-1 mutant repressed, the transcriptional activation of distal pdx-1 promoter sequences.
276 17150967 Our data indicate that Egr-1 regulates expression of PDX-1 in pancreatic beta-cells by both direct and indirect activation of the pdx-1 promoter.
277 17150967 We propose that Egr-1 expression levels may act as a sensor in pancreatic beta-cells to translate extracellular signals into changes in PDX-1 expression levels and pancreatic beta-cell function.
278 17158802 Insulin treatment was associated with the nuclear localization of Pdx1 and the prosurvival effects of insulin were largely absent in islets 50% deficient in Pdx1, providing direct evidence that Pdx1 is a signaling target of insulin.
279 17158802 Bridge-1, a Pdx1-binding partner and regulator of beta-cell survival, was increased significantly at low insulin doses.
280 17192469 A 3-day incubation with the PPAR-gamma agonist troglitazone reduced proliferation and increased Pdx-1 and Nkx6.1 immunostaining, along with glucokinase and GLUT2.
281 17226789 The differentiated PDX-1+ hMSCs expressed multiple islet-cell genes including neurogenin3 (Ngn3), insulin, GK, Glut2, and glucagon, produced and released insulin/C-peptide in a weak glucose-regulated manner.
282 17235568 PDX-1 expression, but not that of MEIS2 and PBX-1, transiently increased on day 7. c-Kit expression was found to be upregulated in islet cells at all points in time, while nestin expression was lacking.
283 17259388 SHP downregulates insulin gene expression via two mechanisms: by downregulating PDX-1 and MafA gene expression and by inhibiting p300-mediated pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor 1-and BETA2-dependent transcriptional activity from the insulin promoter.
284 17299998 Infection with the adenovirus expressing PDX-1, Ngn3, NeuroD, or Pax4 induced the insulin gene expression.
285 17317781 Here we demonstrated that Pdx1 could suppress c-Myc promoter activity, which relied on T cell factor (Tcf) binding elements harbored in c-Myc promoter.
286 17317781 Moreover, adenovirus-mediated Pdx1 interference caused cell proliferation and cytokine-induced apoptosis via the dysregulation of c-Myc transcription.
287 17449132 Furthermore, MafA markedly enhances insulin gene promoter activity and ameliorates glucose tolerance in diabetic mice, especially in the presence of PDX-1 and NeuroD.
288 17467845 In conclusion, with increasing age, insulin secretory function of islets deteriorates accompanied with a decrease in expression of beta cell-specific genes including PDX-1.
289 17627512 In mature beta-cells, PDX-1 transactivates the insulin gene and other genes involved in glucose sensing and metabolism, such as GLUT2 and glucokinase.
290 17706592 Insulin promoter assay showed that Pdx1 highly activates insulin promoter when combined with Ngn3.
291 17709883 The molecular mechanisms responsible for the glucose toxic effect on beta cell function involves disappearance of two important regulators of insulin promoter activity, PDX-1 and MafA.
292 17785922 It is produced exclusively by pancreatic islet beta-cells. beta-cell-enriched transcription factors, such as Pdx1 and Beta2, have dual roles in the activation of the insulin gene promoter establishing beta-cell-specific insulin expression, and in the regulation of beta-cell differentiation.
293 17785922 MafA acts synergistically with Pdx1 and Beta2 to activate the insulin gene promoter, and mice with a targeted deletion of mafA develop age-dependent diabetes.
294 17900743 Thus, our study demonstrated that pdx-1 is not essential for insulin gene expression, at least in cells differentiated from this population of nestin-expression enriched ES cells, and suggested that the insulin-producing cells derived from ES cells may be different from the pancreatic beta cells in terms of their lineage.
295 17991758 Prolonged exposure of isolated islets of Langerhans to elevated levels of fatty acids, in the presence of high glucose, impairs insulin gene expression via a transcriptional mechanism involving nuclear exclusion of pancreas-duodenum homeobox-1 (Pdx-1) and loss of MafA expression.
296 17991758 This was associated with reduced Pdx-1 binding to the endogenous insulin promoter, and an increased proportion of Pdx-1 localized in the cytoplasm versus the nucleus.
297 18192873 Pancreatic transcription factors, PDX-1, Ngn3, NeuroD, and Isl-1, activated the INGAP promoter, but PAX4, PAX6, and Nkx2.2 did not.
298 18360684 PDX-1 binds to the promoter of insulin, glucose transporter 2, and glucokinase and regulates their expression.
299 18360684 By protein-protein interaction, PDX-1 acts in concert with other transcription factors or coactivators at the level of the insulin promoter.
300 18374094 Untreated SDT rats showed disappearance of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) expression in the pancreas and a marked decrease in beta-cell mass.
301 19004984 Human pancreatic tissue from n=20 non-diabetic organ donors with a mean age of 50.2+/-3.5 years (range 7-66 years) and mean body mass index of 25.7+/-0.9 kg/m(2) (17.2-33.1 kg/m(2)) was morphometrically analyzed to determine beta-cell volume, beta-cell replication, beta-cell apoptosis, islet neogenesis, and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) expression.
302 19062254 Interestingly, immunohistochemistry demonstrated that, the islets from MSC-treated rats expressed high levels of PDX-1 and that these cells were also positive for insulin staining.
303 19168505 Transduced expression of PDX-1, NEUROD or PDX-1/VP16 led to expression of not only INS but also GLUT2 and prohormone convertase 1 and 2.
304 19213833 Islet architecture was normal in the Gpr39 null mice, but expression of Pdx-1 and Hnf-1alpha was reduced.
305 19393272 Furthermore, MafA overexpression, together with PDX-1 and NeuroD, markedly induces insulin biosynthesis in various non-beta-cells and thereby is a useful tool to efficiently induce insulin-producing surrogate beta-cells.
306 19487809 Heterozygous mutations in the gene encoding the pancreatic homeodomain transcription factor pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1) are associated with maturity onset diabetes of the young, type 4 (MODY4) and type 2 diabetes.
307 19487809 During development, Pdx1 occupies an evolutionarily conserved enhancer region of Ngn3 and interacts with the transcription factor one cut homeobox 1 (Hnf6) to activate this enhancer.
308 19604517 Gestational high-fat programming impairs insulin release and reduces Pdx-1 and GK immunoreactivity.
309 19689288 The combination of MafA, PDX-1 and NeuroD markedly induces insulin biosynthesis in various non-beta-cells and thereby is a useful tool to efficiently induce insulin-producing surrogate beta-cells.
310 19757377 While stable expression of Pdx1 in ASCs did not induce the pancreatic phenotype in vitro in our experiment, the transplanted stem cells became engrafted in the pancreas, wherein they expressed insulin and C-peptide, which is a marker of insulin-producing cells.
311 19770784 Pdx-1 negatively regulates stimulation of the INGAP promoter by Pan-1/NeuroD.
312 19770784 Independently, Pdx-1, Pan-1, and NeuroD bind to the INGAP promoter as revealed by electrophoresis mobility shift assay studies.
313 19770784 These data reveal a dynamic interaction between Pdx-1, NeuroD, and Pan-1 for the regulation of INGAP promoter activity.
314 19785038 We explored this possibility by determining whether ectopic expression of transcription factors known to induce transcription of this gene in beta cells, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor 1 (Pdx1), V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A (Mafa), and neurogenic differentiation 1 (Neurod1), would activate INS gene expression in long-term hIPC cultures.
315 19785038 In contrast to the endogenous promoter, an exogenous rat INS promoter was activated by expression of Pdx1 and Mafa in hIPCs.
316 19785038 Lastly, ChIP assays show that exogenously expressed Pdx1 and Mafa bind at very low levels to the INS promoter and at 20- to 25-fold higher levels to the GCG promoter in hIPCs.
317 19855005 Heterozygous mutations in the gene encoding the beta cell transcription factor pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) are associated with both T2DM and maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY4), and low levels of Pdx1 accompany beta cell dysfunction in experimental models of glucotoxicity and diabetes.
318 19855005 Here, we find that Pdx1 is required for compensatory beta cell mass expansion in response to diet-induced insulin resistance through its roles in promoting beta cell survival and compensatory hypertrophy.
319 19855005 These findings suggest that Pdx1 deficiency leads to a failure of beta cell compensation for insulin resistance at least in part by impairing critical functions of the ER.
320 19901909 Pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) protein is a key transcription factor involved in the regulation of insulin gene expression that is expressed at high levels in the beta-cells of the pancreatic islets.
321 20349222 Surprisingly, XBP1s overexpression impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and increased beta cell apoptosis, whereas it protected fibroblasts against cell death induced by ER-stress. mRNA expression of Pdx1 and Mafa was inhibited in cells overproducing XBP1s, leading to decreased insulin expression.
322 20349222 XBP1s knockdown partially restored cytokine/ER-stress-driven insulin and Pdx1 inhibition but had no effect on cytokine-induced ER-stress and apoptosis.
323 20349222 Prolonged XBP1s production hampers beta cell function via inhibition of insulin, Pdx1 and Mafa expression, eventually leading to beta cell apoptosis.
324 18219478 Studies using mouse insulinoma cells (MIN6) were conducted to investigate the regulation of GSK3beta activity and its impact on pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein-1 (PDX-1) levels.
325 21799688 This effect may possibly be involved in enhancing beta-cell regeneration and promoting insulin secretion by targeting PPAR? and PDX-1.
326 21540283 Pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1), a key pancreatic transcription factor, regulates insulin along with targets involved in insulin processing and secretion.
327 21829703 Our findings show Sox9 plays an important role in endocrine development by maintaining Ngn3 and Pdx1 expression.
328 21506889 Transgenic overexpression of NGN3 and/or PDX1 proteins not only induced direct target genes, such as NEUROD1 and insulin, and but also triggered parts of the gene expression cascade that is involved in pancreatic endocrine differentiation.
329 21521318 Mutations in NEUROD1, PDX1 (IPF1), CEL and INS are rare causes of MODY.
330 21765243 Moreover, hPL-A induced PDX-1 intracellular expression, improving beta cell activity and ameliorating insulin secretion in response to high glucose stimulation.
331 21779870 Exendin-4 (Ex-4), a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue, given in the newborn period increases Pdx1 expression and prevents the development of diabetes in the IUGR rat.
332 21779870 This resulted in increased USF1 and PCAF association at the proximal promoter of Pdx1, thereby increasing histone acetyl transferase (HAT) activity.
333 21779870 Histone H3 acetylation and trimethylation of H3K4 were permanently increased, whereas Dnmt1 binding and subsequent DNA methylation were prevented at the proximal promoter of Pdx1 in IUGR islets.
334 21779870 These studies demonstrate a novel mechanism whereby a short treatment course of Ex-4 in the newborn period permanently increases HAT activity by recruiting USF1 and PCAF to the proximal promoter of Pdx1 which restores chromatin structure at the Pdx1 promoter and prevents DNA methylation, thus preserving Pdx1 transcription.
335 21612404 Here, we show that PDX-1 plays an important role in the induction of CD44+/CD105+ human amniotic fluid cells (HuAFCs) into functional pancreatic ?-cell-like cells in vitro.
336 21821004 Both thapsigargin treatment, an inducer of ER stress, and ATF3 expression decreased PDX-1 expression in pancreatic ?-cells, MIN6N8.
337 22028710 Inhibition of CDK5 averts the decrease of insulin gene expression through the inhibition of nuclear translocation of PDX-1 which is a transcription factor for the insulin gene.
338 21986529 Chronic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress leads to ?-cell failure via reduction of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) activity, which contributes to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes.
339 21986529 Previously, we showed that ATF3 downregulates PDX-1 gene expression in MIN6N8 pancreatic ?-cells.
340 21986529 Here, we investigated another role of ATF3 on the regulation of PDX-1 activity.
341 21986529 ATF3 significantly inhibited PDX-1-stimulated transactivation of reporter plasmid containing promoters for PDX-1 binding element and the PDX-1 target gene glucokinase, which is dependent on C-terminal domain of ATF3.
342 21986529 ATF3 interacted with PDX-1, and effectively inhibited p300-mediated transcriptional coactivation of the PBE-containing promoter, whereas C-terminal domain-deleted ATF3 did not inhibit the transcoactivation of p300.
343 21986529 ATF3 decreased the interaction of p300 with PDX-1 in MIN6N8 cells coexpressing PDX-1 and ATF3.
344 21986529 In addition, chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis demonstrated that both tunicamycin treatment and ATF3 overexpression inhibited the recruitment of p300 to PDX-1 on the insulin promoter in MIN6N8 cells.
345 21986529 Taken together, these results suggest that ATF3 inhibits PDX-1-mediated transactivation through the inhibition of p300-stimulated coactivation, which may lead to ?-cell dysfunction by ER stress.
