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.

|
Expression of Isl1, Pax4, Pax6, and NeuroD is lost, and endocrine precursors are lacking in the mutant pancreatic epithelium.

The present study demonstrates that adult human pancreatic duct cells can be converted into insulin-expressing cells after ectopic, adenovirus-mediated expression of the class B basic helix-loop-helix factor neurogenin 3 (ngn3), which is a critical factor in embryogenesis of the mouse endocrine pancreas.

|
Infection with adenovirus ngn3 (Adngn3) induced gene and/or protein expression of NeuroD/beta2, Pax4, Nkx2.2, Pax6, and Nkx6.1, all known to be essential for beta-cell differentiation in mouse embryos.
|
53 |
12403815
|
Expression of ngn3 in adult human duct cells induced Notch ligands Dll1 and Dll4 and neuroendocrine- and beta-cell-specific markers: it increased the percentage of synaptophysin- and insulin-positive cells 15-fold in ngn3-infected versus control cells.
|

Expression of Pax4 in embryonic stem cells promotes differentiation of nestin-positive progenitor and insulin-producing cells.
|
56 |
12525695
|
We show that constitutive expression of Pax4 (Pax4(+)), and to a lesser extent Pdx1 (Pdx1(+)), affects the differentiation of ES cells and significantly promote the development of insulin-producing cells.
|
57 |
12525695
|
In Pax4 overexpressing R1 ES cells, isl-1, ngn3, insulin, islet amyloid polypeptide, and glucose transporter 2 (Glut-2) mRNA levels increase significantly.

|
In the current study we demonstrate that the HNF1alpha and Neurogenin3 binding sites are critical for activity of the region through synergy between the two proteins.
|
71 |
12837760
|
Furthermore, exogenous expression of Neurogenin3 is sufficient to induce expression of the endogenous pax4 gene in the mouse pancreatic ductal cell line mPAC, which already expresses HNF1alpha, whereas expression of both Neurogenin3 and HNF1alpha are necessary to activate the pax4 gene in the fibroblast cell line NIH3T3.
|

To better understand how Neurogenin3 directs endocrine differentiation, we examined the mechanisms by which Neurogenin3 regulates the promoters of three transcription factor genes expressed in endocrine precursor cells: the nkx2.2 gene, the PAX4 gene, and the NEUROG3 gene, the human gene encoding Neurogenin3 itself.

In addition, MafB expression is maintained in the insulin(+) and glucagon(+) cells remaining in mice lacking either the Pax4 or Pax6 developmental regulators, implicating a potentially early role for MafB in gene regulation during islet cell development.

Fas, a death receptor regulated by IL-1beta, is involved in glucose-induced beta-cell apoptosis.
|
118 |
17003335
|
Fas engagement can be switched from death signal to induction of proliferation when the caspase 8 inhibitor, FLICE-inhibitory protein (FLIP), is active.
|
119 |
17003335
|
A similarly bimodal induction of FLIP, pancreatic duodenal homeobox (PDX)-1, and Pax4 mRNA expression, as well as glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, was observed.
|
120 |
17003335
|
In contrast, Fas induction by IL-1beta was monophasic.
|
121 |
17003335
|
Low IL-1beta also induced the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), suppression of which by RNA interference abrogated the beneficial effects of low IL-1beta.
|
122 |
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.
|
123 |
17003335
|
These findings indicate that low IL-1beta levels positively influence beta-cell function and turnover through the Fas-FLIP pathway and that IL-1Ra production prevents harmful effects of high IL-1beta concentrations.

A similarly bimodal induction of FLIP, pancreatic duodenal homeobox (PDX)-1, and Pax4 mRNA expression, as well as glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, was observed.
|
127 |
17003335
|
In contrast, Fas induction by IL-1beta was monophasic.
|
128 |
17003335
|
Low IL-1beta also induced the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), suppression of which by RNA interference abrogated the beneficial effects of low IL-1beta.
|
129 |
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.
|
130 |
17003335
|
These findings indicate that low IL-1beta levels positively influence beta-cell function and turnover through the Fas-FLIP pathway and that IL-1Ra production prevents harmful effects of high IL-1beta concentrations.
|

|
PPlike cells show a strong upregulation of Ipf1/Pdx1, p48, Isl-1 and Nkx6.1, but not Ngn3, NeuroD/ Beta2 or Pax4.
|
132 |
17141044
|
During differentiation, transcript levels of pancreas-specific transcription factors (i.e., Pdx1, Pax4) and of genes specific for early and mature beta cells, including insulin, islet amyloid pancreatic peptide, somatostatin, and glucagon, are upregulated.
|
133 |
17263687
|
The beta-cell specific transcription factor Nkx6.1 inhibits glucagon gene transcription by interfering with Pax6.
|
134 |
17263687
|
The transcription factor Nkx6.1 is required for the establishment of functional insulin-producing beta-cells in the endocrine pancreas.
|
135 |
17263687
|
Overexpression of Nkx6.1 has been shown to inhibit glucagon gene expression while favouring insulin gene activation.
|
136 |
17263687
|
Down-regulation resulted in the opposite effect, suggesting that absence of Nkx6.1 favours glucagon gene expression.
|
137 |
17263687
|
To understand the mechanism by which Nkx6.1 suppresses glucagon gene expression, we studied its effect on the glucagon gene promoter activity in non-islet cells using transient transfections and gel-shift analyses.
|
138 |
17263687
|
In glucagonoma cells transfected with an Nkx6.1-encoding vector, the glucagon promoter activity was reduced by 65%.
|
139 |
17263687
|
In BHK21 cells, Nkx6.1 inhibited by 93% Pax6-mediated activation of the glucagon promoter, whereas Cdx2/3 and Maf stimulations were unaltered.
|
140 |
17263687
|
Although Nkx6.1 could interact with both the G1 and G3 element, only the former displayed specificity for Nkx6.1.
|
141 |
17263687
|
Mutagenesis of the three potential AT-rich motifs within the G1 revealed that only the Pax6-binding site preferentially interacted with Nkx6.1.
|
142 |
17263687
|
Chromatin immunoprecipitation confirmed interaction of Nkx6.1 with the glucagon promoter and revealed a direct competition for binding between Pax6 and Nkx6.1.
|
143 |
17263687
|
A weak physical interaction between Pax6 and Nkx6.1 was detected in vitro and in vivo suggesting that Nkx6.1 predominantly inhibits glucagon gene transcription through G1-binding competition.
|
144 |
17263687
|
We suggest that cell-specific expression of the glucagon gene may only proceed when Nkx6.1, in combination with Pdx1 and Pax4, are silenced in early alpha-cell precursors.
|
145 |
17299998
|
Infection with the adenovirus expressing PDX-1, Ngn3, NeuroD, or Pax4 induced the insulin gene expression.
|
146 |
17299998
|
NeuroD was the most effective inducer of insulin expression in primary duct cells.
|
147 |
17299998
|
These data suggest that the overexpression of transcription factors, especially NeuroD, facilitates pancreatic stem/progenitor cell differentiation into insulin-producing cells.
|
148 |
17510498
|
The expression pattern of FoxO1 during pancreatic organogenesis is similar to that of Pdx1, Nkx2.2 and Pax4, transcription factors known to be critical for beta cell development.
|
149 |
17510498
|
FoxO1 is expressed in a subset of pancreatic duct cells, in which insulin and/or Pdx1 are occasionally expressed.
|
150 |
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.
|
151 |

In vitro studies on non diabetic islets demonstrated that glucose, betacellulin, activin A, GLP-1 and insulin increased Pax4 mRNA levels.
|
152 |

These clusters appeared about 9 days after pancreatic differentiation; expressed pancreatic beta-cell markers, including insulin, glucagon, Glut-2, PDX1, Pax4, and Ngn3; and could synthesize and secrete functional islet proteins at the end of the inducing protocol.

Our stage-specific approach successfully differentiated mesodermic mE-ASCs into definitive endoderm (cells expressing Sox17, Foxa2, GATA-4, and cytokeratin [CK]-19), then into pancreatic endoderm (cells expressing pancreatic and duodenal homeobox [PDX]-1, Ngn3, NeuroD, Pax4, and glucose transporter 2), and finally into cells expressing pancreatic hormones (insulin, glucagon, somatostatin).

Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor enhances neurogenin3 gene expression and beta-cell proliferation in the developing mouse pancreas.
|
186 |
20448145
|
In this study we examined the influence of GDNF on the expression of neurogenin3 (Ngn3) and other transcription factors implicated in early beta-cell development, as well as on beta-cell proliferation during embryonic and early postnatal mouse pancreas development.
|
187 |
20448145
|
Embryonic day 15.5 (E15.5) mouse pancreatic tissue when exposed to GDNF for 24 h showed higher Ngn3, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox gene 1 (Pdx1), neuroD1/beta(2), paired homeobox gene 4 (Pax4), and insulin mRNA expression than tissue exposed to vehicle only.
|
188 |
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.
|
189 |
20448145
|
In the HIT-T15 beta-cell line, GDNF enhanced the expression of Pax6.
|
190 |
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.
|
191 |
20508600

Here we identified a novel PAX4 mutation in a Japanese patient with MODY.
|
194 |
21263211
|
We therefore analyzed several candidate genes of MODY, and identified a novel mutation of a 39-base heterozygous deletion in exon 3 (c.374-412 del39) of PAX4 in the proband and his father.
|
195 |
21263211
|
As expected, luciferase-reporter assays revealed that the mutant PAX4 could not repress the activities of insulin and glucagon gene promoters, unlike the wild-type PAX4 that repressed the promoter activities.

210 |
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)).

215 |
22833839
|
These islet-like cells expressed multiple genes related to islet development and beta cell function (e.g., Pdx-1, Ngn-3, Islet-1, Neuro-D, Pax4, IAPP, and insulin) and produced insulin and C-peptide within these cells.

GLP-1, a cell growth and survival factor, is proposed to promote the expansion of neurogenin3-expressing, undifferentiated pro-α-cells during development. β-cells arise from pro-α-cells by a change in the relative amounts of the transcription factors Arx and Pax4, master regulators of the α- and β-cell lineages, respectively.

These genes belong to three major classes: genes involved in drug metabolism and transporters that influence pharmacokinetics (including the cytochrome P450 [CYP] superfamily, the organic anion transporting polypeptide [OATP] family, and the polyspecific organic cation transporter [OCT] family); genes encoding drug targets and receptors (including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma [PPARG], the adenosine triphosphate [ATP]-sensitive potassium channel [K(ATP)], and incretin receptors); and genes involved in the causal pathway of T2DM that are able to modify the effects of drugs (including adipokines, transcription factor 7-like 2 (T cell specific, HMG-box) [TCF7L2], insulin receptor substrate 1 [IRS1], nitric oxide synthase 1 (neuronal) adaptor protein [NOS1AP], and solute carrier family 30 (zinc transporter), member 8 [SLC30A8]).
|
220 |
23018631
|
In addition to these three major classes, we also review the available evidence on novel genes (CDK5 regulatory subunit associated protein 1-like 1 [CDKAL1], insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2 [IGF2BP2], potassium voltage-gated channel, KQT-like subfamily, member 1 [KCNQ1], paired box 4 [PAX4] and neuronal differentiation 1 [NEUROD1] transcription factors, ataxia telangiectasia mutated [ATM], and serine racemase [SRR]) that have recently been proposed as possible modulators of therapeutic response in subjects with T2DM.

Recombinant human Pdx1 proteins (hPdx1), which have an Antennapedia-like protein transduction domain sequence in their structure, can be efficiently translocated into hES cells and function as pancreatic transcription factor. hPdx1 protein activates a group of genes related to pancreatic beta-cell lineage development in hES cells, including NeuroD1, Nkx2.2, Pax4, Pax6, Nkx6.1 and Isl-1. hPdx1-treated hES cells synthesise and release insulin in response to glucose challenge.

227 |
23610061

|
A Mitf loss-of-function mutation results in improved glucose tolerance and enhanced insulin secretion but no increase in β-cell mass in adult mice.
|
229 |
23610061
|
Mutant β-cells secrete more insulin in response to glucose than wild-type cells, suggesting that Mitf is involved in regulating β-cell function.
|
230 |
23610061
|
In fact, the transcription of genes critical for maintaining glucose homeostasis (insulin and Glut2) and β-cell formation and function (Pax4 and Pax6) is significantly upregulated in Mitf mutant islets.
|
231 |
23610061

The increased Pax6 expression may cause the improved β-cell function observed in Mitf mutant animals, as it activates insulin and Glut2 transcription.
|
232 |

We found that MAFA, detected in 88.3±6.3% insulin(+)cells as in the mouse, turned out to be also expressed in 61.2±6.4% of human glucagons(+) cells with less intensity than in insulin(+) cells, whereas MAFB expression was found not only in the majority of glucagon(+) cells (67.2±7.6%), but also in 53.6±10.5% of human insulin(+) cells.

Both MAFA and PAX4 display, therefore, a distinct expression pattern in human islet cells, suggesting more potential plasticity of human islets as compared with rodent islets.

Both PAX4 and MAFA are expressed in a substantial proportion of normal human pancreatic alpha cells and deregulated in patients with type 2 diabetes.
