1 8613527 Chronic exposure of betaTC-6 cells to supraphysiologic concentrations of glucose decreases binding of the RIPE3b1 insulin gene transcription activator.
2 8613527 We have shown previously that chronic exposure of HIT-T15 cells to supraphysiologic glucose concentrations causes decreased insulin gene transcription and decreased binding activities of two beta-cell specific transcription factors, STF-1 and the RIPE3b1 activator, and have suggested that these events may provide a mechanism for glucose toxicity on beta-cell function.
3 8613527 Electromobility shift assays demonstrated that binding of a specific nuclear protein that recognizes the RIPE3b1 binding site of the insulin gene was markedly diminished in late passage cells chronically exposed to 11.1 mM glucose, whereas binding activities of STF-1 and ICE activators were unchanged.
4 8613527 Mutation of the RIPE3b1 binding site almost completely abolished insulin gene transcription as well as binding activity.
5 8613527 We conclude that chronic exposure of betaTC-6 cells to high glucose concentrations paradoxically decreases insulin gene transcription, in part, by decreasing activity of the trans-activating factor which binds to the RIPE3b1 sequence.
6 8613527 This study uniquely demonstrates that altered binding to the RIPE3b1 sequence mediates glucose toxicity in betaTC-6 cells, thus reinforcing the importance of this cis-acting element in the regulation of insulin gene transcription.

95 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.

100 9011569 The results of reporter gene analyses revealed that the insulin gene promoter is more sensitive to glycation than the control beta-actin gene promoter; approximately 50 and 80% of the insulin gene promoter activity was lost when the cells were kept for 3 d in the presence of 40 and 60 mM D-ribose, respectively.

121 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.

137 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).
138 9460079 Recently, mouse knockouts of the transcription factors Pax4, Pax6, beta 2/neuroD, and Isl-1 result in severe anomalies in the development of the endocrine pancreas.
139 9472859 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) can be defined by the clinical characteristics of early-onset Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes and autosomal dominant inheritance.
140 9472859 Mutations in four genes have been shown to cause MODY: glucokinase, hepatic nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1alpha), hepatic nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4alpha) and insulin promoter [corrected] factor 1 (IPF1).
141 9472859 Patients with HNF4alpha and IPF1 mutations show a similar clinical picture to HNF1alpha although diabetes may be diagnosed later.
142 9531829 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a clinically and genetically heterogenous disorder characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance with onset usually before 25 years of age, and a primary defect in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
143 9531829 These are the genes encoding the glycolytic enzyme glucokinase, three liver-enriched transcription factors, hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1 alpha, HNF-1 beta and HNF-4 alpha, and the gene encoding the transcription factor, insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1).

145 9604866 Reconstitution of glucotoxic HIT-T15 cells with somatostatin transcription factor-1 partially restores insulin promoter activity.
146 9604866 Furthermore, decreases in insulin gene transcription and binding activity of two essential beta-cell transcription factors, somatostatin transcription factor-1 (STF-1; also known as GSTF, IDX-1, IPF-1, PDX-1, and GSF) and RIPE-3b1 activator, are associated with this glucotoxic effect.
147 9604866 In this study, we observed that the loss of RIPE-3b1 occurs much earlier (79% decrease at passage [p]81) than the loss of STF-1 (65% decrease at p104), with abolishment of both factors by p122.
148 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.
149 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).
150 9604866 In late passage cells, transfection of STF-1 alone significantly stimulated a 2.2-fold increase in the insulin promoter activity.

221 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).
222 9604866 In late passage cells, transfection of STF-1 alone significantly stimulated a 2.2-fold increase in the insulin promoter activity.
223 9604866 Cotransfection of STF-1 and E2-5 in late passage cells stimulated insulin promoter activity 2.8-fold, which was 40% of the activity observed in early passage cells.
224 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.
225 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.
226 9616224 Differential expression of the insulin gene transcriptional repressor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta and transactivator islet duodenum homeobox-1 in rat pancreatic beta cells during the development of diabetes mellitus.
227 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.

230 9616224 Concomitant with a downregulation of IDX-1 and insulin expression, C/EBPbeta is upregulated in association with the manifestation of hyperglycemia during the development of diabetes in the Zucker diabetic fatty (fa/fa) rat and in the 90% pancreatectomy rat model of diabetes.

250 9628281 In this study 88 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) who were diagnosed as diabetic at less than 40 years of age, 55 patients with insulin-dependent-diabetes (IDDM), and 67 normal control subjects were analysed for variants in the upstream region of the IPF1 gene by direct sequencing.
251 9637677 These mice develop diabetes with age, and we show that IPF1/PDX1 is required for maintaining the beta cell identity by positively regulating insulin and islet amyloid polypeptide expression and by repressing glucagon expression.
252 9637677 We also provide evidence that IPF1/PDX1 regulates the expression of Glut2 in a dosage-dependent manner suggesting that lowered IPF1/PDX1 activity may contribute to the development of type II diabetes by causing impaired expression of both Glut2 and insulin.

255 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.
256 9736233 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a form of diabetes mellitus characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance, onset usually before 25 y of age and a primary defect in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

270 9780731 Clinical characterization of patients with MODY indicates that impaired insulin secretion is the primary defect responsible for the hyperglycemia in these patients.
271 9780731 Genetic studies have thus far identified five MODY susceptibility genes, four of which encode transcription factors; HNF (hepatocyte nuclear factor)-1 alpha, HNF-1 beta, HNF-4 alpha, and IPF1.
272 9887471 Recent studies have shown that mutations in four transcription factors, hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF-4 alpha), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF-1 alpha), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF-1 beta), and insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1), are responsible for maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) which is characterised by an early age of onset and autosomal dominant inheritance.
273 9887471 Some mutations in HNF-1 alpha were identified in subjects with atypical forms of insulin-dependent diabetes, and a mutation in HNF-4 alpha and several mutations in IPF-1 were found in type 2 diabetic families with typical late-onset NIDDM.
274 9920109 Mutations in 5 different genes [the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4alpha), glucokinase, HNF-1alpha, insulin promoter factor-1, and HNF-1beta genes] have been shown to cause maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

276 10199131 Until now five genes (HNF-4 alpha, glucokinase, HNF-1 alpha, IPF-1 and HNF-1 beta), whose mutation can result in MODY, insulin and insulin receptor genes, and mitochondria DNA have been reported to be responsible for diabetes.
277 10322408 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous subtype of Type 2 diabetes characterized by early onset, autosomal dominant inheritance and primary defects in insulin secretion.
278 10322408 To date, five proteins have been identified whose genetic absence or impairment causes MODY, the enzyme glucokinase (GCK/MODY2) and four transcription factors: hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha (HNF-4alpha/MODY1), HNF-1alpha/MODY3, insulin promoter factor 1 (IPF-1/MODY4) and HNF-1beta/MODY5.
279 10331405 We believe that the cells resulting from these cultures are of beta-cell origin, since they uniformly express the transcription factor PDX-1 (STF-1, IDX-1, IPF-1), which is initially seen only in cells positive for insulin and negative for the ductal cell marker cytokeratin (CK)-19.
280 10331405 Although the expanded beta-cells continued to express PDX-1, insulin expression was lost over time.

283 10377278 Transcription factors such as Pdx1, p48 and Nkx2.2 have been shown to be essential for the proper differentiation of exocrine and endocrine tissue; however, pancreas development also involves intricate interactions between the pancreatic epithelium and its surrounding mesenchyme.
284 10417964 To date, mutations in genes of five proteins have been shown to cause MODY: glucokinase (MODY2), hepatic nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF-1 alpha) (MODY3), hepatic nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF-4 alpha) (MODY1), insulin promoter factor 1 (IPF-1) (MODY4) and hepatic nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF-1 beta) (MODY5), but other MODY genes still await elucidation.
285 10433248 Finally, electrophoretic mobility shift assays using nuclear extracts from neural cells revealed the presence of IDX1/IPF1 bound to a putative homeodomain protein DNA-binding site present in the promoter of the glial fibrillary acidic protein gene.

287 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.
288 10485916 Both drugs prevented a rise in blood oxidative stress markers (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde + 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal), and partially prevented hyperglycemia, glucose intolerance, defective insulin secretion as well as decrements in beta cell insulin content, insulin gene expression, and PDX-1 (STF-1) binding to the insulin gene promoter.

344 10512364 These findings provide the first in vivo evidence that prevention of progressive hyperglycemia in a model of type 2 diabetes preserves insulin and PDX-1 gene expression.
345 10512364 In vivo prevention of hyperglycemia also prevents glucotoxic effects on PDX-1 and insulin gene expression.
346 10512364 As glycemia increased in 12- and 16-week-old ZDF rats, we observed decrements in glucose-induced insulin secretion during static incubations of pancreatic islets and in insulin mRNA levels, PDX-1 mRNA levels, and PDX-1 protein binding to the insulin promoter compared with age-matched ZLC rats and 6-week-old ZDF rats.

357 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).
358 10567373 Persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI) is a neonatal disease characterized by dysregulation of insulin secretion accompanied by profound hypoglycemia.
359 10567373 The PHHI-derived cell line (NES2Y) exhibits insulin secretory characteristics typical of islet cells derived from these patients, i.e. they have no K(ATP) channel activity and as a consequence secrete insulin at constitutively high levels in the absence of glucose.
360 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.
361 10567373 To repair these defects NES2Y cells were triple-transfected with cDNAs encoding the two components of the K(ATP) channel (SUR1 and Kir6.2) and PDX1.
362 10567373 This approach to engineering PHHI-derived islet cells may be of use in gene therapy for PHHI and in cell engineering techniques for administering insulin for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

369 10567702 PDX-1 has been suggested to be involved in the glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription.

371 10567702 PDX-1 has been suggested to be involved in the glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription.
372 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).
373 10609119 These genes encode hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF-4 alpha, MODY1), glucokinase (MODY2), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF-1 alpha, MODY3), insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1, MODY4), and hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF-1 beta, MODY5).
374 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.
375 10677506 Expression of Isl1, Pax4, Pax6, and NeuroD is lost, and endocrine precursors are lacking in the mutant pancreatic epithelium.
376 10720084 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) now exists in five subtypes (MODY1-5), four of which are caused by mutations in transcription factors hepatocyte nuclear factor-4alpha (HNF-4alpha), HNF-1alpha, insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1), and HNF-1beta (MODY1, -3, -4, and -5).
377 10720084 Thus, highlighting the potential role of this transcription factor in the genetic basis of Danish and Italian MODY as well as in Danish patients with late-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus, we have examined the human IPF-1 gene for mutations by single strand conformation polymorphism and heteroduplex analysis in 200 Danish patients with late-onset type 2 diabetes and in 44 Danish and Italian MODY patients.
378 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.

385 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.
386 10851133 As glucose uptake/metabolism is essential for insulin secretion, decreased GLUT2 may contribute to the etiology of diabetes in pdx1(PB)-HNF6 transgenics.

389 10866047 Sulfonylurea receptor 1 and Kir6.2 expression in the novel human insulin-secreting cell line NES2Y.
390 10866047 NES2Y cells, like beta-cells isolated from the patient of origin, lack functional ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) and also carry a defect in the insulin gene-regulatory transcription factor PDX1.
391 10866047 Here, we report that the NES2Y beta-cells that are transfected with the genes encoding the components of KATP channels in beta-cells, sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) 1 and Kir6.2, have operational KATP channels and show normal intracellular Ca2+ and secretory responses to glucose.
392 10866047 NES2Y beta-cells that are transfected with either Kir6.2 or SUR1 alone do not express functional KATP channels and have impaired intracellular free Ca2+ concentration-signaling responses to depolarization-dependent beta-cell agonists.
393 10868931 Alternatively, beta-cells have been suggested to arise late, directly from the GLUT2- and pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX1)-expressing epithelium, which gives rise also to the acinar cells during this stage.
394 10868931 In this study, we have identified a subset of the PDX1+ epithelial cells that are marked by expression of Neurogenin3 (Ngn3).
395 10868931 Detailed analysis of Ngn3/paired box factor 6 (PAX6) and NeuroD/PAX6 co-expression shows that the two bHLH factors are expressed in a largely nonoverlapping set of cells, but such analysis also suggests that the NeuroD+ cells arise from cells expressing Ngn3 transiently.
396 10868931 NeuroD+ cells do not express Ki-67, a marker of proliferating cells, which shows that these cells are postmitotic.
397 10868931 The earliest sign of alpha-cell development appears to be Brain4 expression, which apparently precedes Islet-1 (ISL1) expression.

403 10868948 Mutations in the transcription factors hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4alpha and -1alpha, insulin promoter factor-1, and HNF-1beta are the causes of four forms of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY1 and 3-5, respectively).
404 10868948 The winged-helix transcription factor HNF-3beta has been implicated in the regulation of expression of each of these MODY genes, suggesting that mutations in the HNF-3beta gene (HNF3B) may also cause MODY.
405 10868949 Because the HNF-3beta gene is implicated in this network, we screened it for mutations in 21 probands of French ancestry with clinical diagnosis of MODY and early-onset type 2 diabetes.
406 10868949 All of the five known MODY genes, HNF-4alpha, glucokinase, HNF-1alpha, HNF-1beta, and IPF1, were previously excluded as being the cause of diabetes in these families.
407 10868954 After a 24-h culture with IL-1beta (30 U/ml), beta-cells exhibited a lower expression of the beta-cell-specific protein transcription factor pancreatic and duodenal homeobox gene (PDX)-1, glucose transporter GLUT2, and proinsulin convertase PC2, with a marked reduction (60-70%) in glucose-induced insulin production and selective sensitivity to the toxins alloxan (ALX) and streptozotocin (STZ).
408 10868954 On the other hand, the cells presented an increased expression of Mn-superoxide dismutase, heat shock protein 70, inducible heme oxygenase, and inducible nitrite oxide synthase.
409 10868954 Exposure to IL-1beta can thus protect beta-cells against conditions that cause necrosis; however, it did not protect against apoptosis induced by the additional presence of interferon-gamma or tumor necrosis factor-alpha.

446 10871194 After isolation and culture, both duct and islet cell preparations contained the Ipf-1 immunoreactive proteins p42 and p45 (42 and 45 kDa, respectively) in similar proportions, but the expression levels were twofold lower in duct cells.
447 10871194 After 4 h of labeling, the endocrine cells exhibited a sevenfold higher phosphorylation of p42 than the duct cells, whereas p45 was phosphorylated only in endocrine cells.
448 10899756 Gene expression studies have shown that HNF3 proteins are critical regulators of the early-onset type 2 diabetes genes HNF-1 alpha, HNF-4 alpha and IPF-1/PDX-1 (MODY3, 1 and 4, respectively) and of glucagon transcription and pancreatic alpha-cell function.
449 10905482 Insulinotropic glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists stimulate expression of homeodomain protein IDX-1 and increase islet size in mouse pancreas.
450 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.
451 10905482 Concomitantly, GLP-1 administered to diabetic mice stimulates insulin secretion and effectively lowers their blood sugar levels.

472 10953613 Mutations in any of the genes associated to MODY may contribute to the insulin secretion deficiency frequently observed in early-onset type 2 diabetic patients.
473 10967107 During pancreatic development, the paired homeodomain transcription factor PAX4 is required for the differentiation of the insulin-producing beta cells and somatostatin-producing delta cells.
474 10967107 Serial deletions through this region reveal the presence of positive elements that bind several pancreatic transcription factors as follows: the POU homeodomain factor HNF1alpha, the orphan nuclear receptor HNF4alpha, the homeodomain factor PDX1, and a heterodimer composed of two basic helix-loop-helix factors.
475 10969830 The c-Jun amino-terminal kinase pathway is preferentially activated by interleukin-1 and controls apoptosis in differentiating pancreatic beta-cells.
476 10969830 To characterize the differentiation events that selectively target insulin-producing cells to interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced apoptosis, we studied IL-1beta signaling via mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and stress-activated protein kinase in 2 pancreatic endocrine cell lines.
477 10969830 We studied the glucagon-secreting AN-glu cell line and the insulin and the islet amyloid polypeptide-producing beta-cell line (AN-ins cells), which is derived by stable transfection of AN-glu cells with the transcription factor pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1.
478 10969830 This increased sensitivity was not associated with a more pronounced IL-l-induced nitric oxide production in AN-ins cells, but it correlated with a more marked activation of the 3 MAPKs extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs)-1/2, c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 MAPK (p38).
479 10969830 This led to increased phosphorylation of the transcription factors c-Jun, Elk-1, and ATF2 and of heat shock protein 25.
480 10969830 Inhibition of ERK-1/2 and p38 did not prevent but aggravated IL-1beta-induced cell death.
481 10969830 Cell death could be elicited by overexpressing the catalytic domain of MAPK kinase kinase 1, a specific activator of JNK and nuclear factor-kappaB, which does not recruit ERK-1/2 or p38.
482 10969830 Coactivation of ERK-1/2 with JNK did not prevent apoptosis.
483 10969830 In conclusion, increased MAPK signaling in response to IL-1beta may represent a novel molecular marker of beta-cell differentiation.

493 11024035 Transcription factors (PDX-1 and HNF-1 alpha) binding to A elements are critical regulators of insulin gene expression and/or pancreatic development.
494 11024035 In addition, RIPE3b1- and A2-specific activators respond differently to glucose, suggesting that their overlapping binding specificity and functional cooperation may play an important role in regulating insulin gene expression.
495 11058894 MODY is genetically heterogeneous with five different genes identified to date: hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF-4 alpha) [MODY1]; glucokinase [MODY2]; hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF-1 alpha) [MODY3]; insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1) [MODY4]; and hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF-1 beta) [MODY5].
496 11058894 Mutations in the HNF-1 alpha gene represent a common cause of MODY in the majority of populations studied.
497 11058894 The identification of an HNF-1 alpha gene mutation in a patient with type 2 diabetes confirms the diagnosis of MODY and has important implications for clinical management.

507 11090239 Cell proliferation nuclear antigen (PCNA) was used as a marker of cell proliferation and cells were stained for putative markers of islet neogenesis, cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and Bcl-2.
508 11090239 Most of the insulin(+)clusters were also homeodomain-containing transcription factor pancreas duodenum homeobox gene-1 (PDX-1) positive.
509 11108273 Glucagon-like peptide-1 induces cell proliferation and pancreatic-duodenum homeobox-1 expression and increases endocrine cell mass in the pancreas of old, glucose-intolerant rats.
510 11108273 Here, we show that continuous infusion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) (GLP-1; an insulinotropic agent), to young and old animals, had effects on the beta-cell of the pancreas other than simply on the insulin secretory apparatus.
511 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.
512 11108273 The effects on levels of PDX-1 messenger RNA were abrogated by simultaneous infusion of Exendin (9-39), a specific antagonist of GLP-1.

517 11118882 This promoter region contains sequence motifs that have been shown to be involved in beta-cell-specific expression of insulin, Pdx1 and islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP).
518 11130726 Here we show that the FGF receptors (FGFRs) 1 and 2, together with the ligands FGF1, FGF2, FGF4, FGF5, FGF7 and FGF10, are expressed in adult mouse beta-cells, indicating that FGF signalling may have a role in differentiated beta-cells.
519 11130726 We also show that Ipf1/Pdx1 is required for the expression of FGFR1 signalling components in beta-cells, indicating that Ipf1/Pdx1 acts upstream of FGFR1 signalling in beta-cells to maintain proper glucose sensing, insulin processing and glucose homeostasis.
520 11181516 An antiserum directed against the transcription factor islet duodenum homeobox-1 (IDX-1), a regulator of pancreas development and activator of the insulin gene promoter, attenuated the binding activity of Hh-responsive protein complexes.
521 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.
522 11181516 Thus, the IDX-1 gene is a direct regulatory target of Hh signaling in insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells.
523 11181516 We propose that Hh signaling activates the insulin gene promoter indirectly via the direct activation of IDX-1 expression.
524 11181516 Because IDX-1 gene expression is essential for insulin gene expression, pancreatic beta-cell development, and normal glucose homeostasis, our findings that Hh signaling regulates IDX-1 expression in the endocrine pancreas suggest possible novel therapeutic approaches for diabetes mellitus.

545 11202217 The subgroups that result in non-insulin-dependent DM in children are as follows: the 'honeymoon' phase of type 1 DM, type 2 DM, genetic syndromes accompanied by DM, and maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).
546 11202217 It should be emphasized that MODY comprises two discrete clinical syndromes: glucokinase diabetes and transcription factor diabetes, the latter of which results from mutations in the genes encoding hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha, HNF-1beta, HNF-4alpha and insulin promoter factor-1.
547 11222748 Induction of beta-cell differentiation was achieved by stimulating the signaling pathways downstream of the transcription factor PDX-1, cell-cell contact, and the glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) receptor.
548 11237222 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a potent insulin secretagogue that has multiple synergetic effects on the glucose-dependent insulin secretion pathways of the beta-cell.
549 11237222 Our investigations into the mechanisms of action of GLP-1 began by using the reverse hemolytic plaque assay to quantify insulin secretion from individual cells of the RIN 1046-38 insulinoma cell line in response to acute treatment with the peptide.
550 11237222 GLP-1 increases both the number of cells secreting insulin and the amount secreted per cell.
551 11237222 This response to GLP-1 is retained even in the beta cell of the old (i.e., 22-month), glucose-intolerant Wistar rat, which exhibits a normal, first-phase insulin response to glucose following an acute bolus of GLP-1.
552 11237222 Preincubation with GLP-1 (24 hours) potentiates glucose- and GLP-1-dependent insulin secretion and increases insulin content in the insulinoma cells.
553 11237222 Treatment of old Wistar rats for 48 hours with GLP-1 leads to normalization of the insulin response and an increase in islet insulin content and mRNA levels of GLUT 2 and glucokinase.
554 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.
555 11237222 Administration of GLP-1 to old rats leads to pancreatic cell proliferation, insulin-positive clusters, and an increase in beta-cell mass.
556 11237222 Thus, the actions of GLP-1 on the beta-cell are complex, with possible benefits to the diabetic patient that extend beyond a simple glucose-dependent increase in insulin secretion.
557 11246869 Characterization of the mouse islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein gene promoter by in situ footprinting: correlation with fusion gene expression in the islet-derived betaTC-3 and hamster insulinoma tumor cell lines.
558 11246869 To begin to investigate the molecular basis for the islet-specific expression of the IGRP gene, a series of truncated IGRP-chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) fusion genes were transiently transfected into the islet-derived mouse betaTC-3 and hamster insulinoma tumor cell lines.
559 11246869 The data suggest that hepatocyte nuclear factor 3 may be important for basal IGRP gene expression, as it is for glucagon, GLUT2, and Pdx-1 gene expression.
560 11246871 Nestin-positive cells within pancreatic islets express neither the hormones insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, or pancreatic polypeptide nor the markers of vascular endothelium or neurons, such as collagen IV and galanin.
561 11246871 Nestin-positive cells in the islets and in pancreatic ducts are distinct from ductal epithelium because they do not express the ductal marker cytokeratin 19 (CK19).
562 11246871 Upon confluence, they are able to differentiate into cells that express liver and exocrine pancreas markers, such as alpha-fetoprotein and pancreatic amylase, and display a ductal/endocrine phenotype with expression of CK19, neural-specific cell adhesion molecule, insulin, glucagon, and the pancreas/duodenum specific homeodomain transcription factor, IDX-1.
563 11246894 Mutations in transcription factors that play a role in the development of the endocrine pancreas, such as insulin promoter factor-1 and NeuroD1/BETA2, have been associated with diabetes.
564 11249068 PDX-1 plays a critical role in pancreatic development and insulin secretion.
565 11249068 The ARIP and ARIP/PDX-1 cells were treated with known growth and differentiation factors including hepatocyte growth factor, activin A, betacellulin, reg, INGAP, nicotinamide, and retinoic acid.

568 11272167 The resulting depletion of the insulin stores may be related to deficient glucose-regulated insulin gene transcription, possibly due to defective PDX-1 (pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1) expression in the adult P. obesus.
569 11272171 beta-cell-specific expression of insulin and PDX-1 genes.
570 11272175 Defective glucose-regulated insulin gene expression associated with PDX-1 deficiency in the Psammomys obesus model of type 2 diabetes.
571 11272177 The lack of IR did not result in major changes in the expression of islet hormone genes or of beta-cell-specific marker genes encoding pancreas duodenum homeobox-containing transcription factor-1 (PDX-1), glucokinase (GCK), and GLUT2, as shown by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis.
572 11272196 PDX-1 was shown to be expressed early during development in cells of both exocrine and endocrine origin; later it becomes restricted primarily to beta-cells where it regulates the expression of beta-cell-specific genes and mediates the glucose effect on insulin gene transcription.
573 11272196 This comparison revealed three short conserved regions, designated PH1, PH2, and PH3.
574 11272196 We showed that HNF-3beta can bind and stimulate the activity of the human PH1 and PH2 elements in non-beta-cells.
575 11272196 Results reported by Wu et al. (7) and Sharma et al. (6) also indicate that expression of the mouse pdx-1 is controlled by an HNF-3-like element.
576 11272196 Thus, it can be stated that at least some aspects of pdx-1 expression rely on the transcription factor HNF-3beta.
577 11272196 Because HNF-3beta is not restricted to beta-cells, the selective transcription of pdx-1 is likely to rely on additional factors.
578 11272196 Our findings that the PH1 enhancer element binds both HNF-3beta and PDX-1 and that mutations in each individual site dramatically impair its transcriptional activity suggest that these factors cooperate with one another.

607 11272211 beta-Cell transcription factor genes are important in the pathophysiology of the beta-cell, with mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha, HNF-4alpha, insulin promoter factor (IPF)-1, HNF-1beta, and NeuroD1/BETA2, all resulting in early-onset type 2 diabetes.
608 11272211 The relative distribution of the 90 families fitting maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) criteria was 63% HNF-1alpha, 2% HNF-4alpha, 0% IPF-1, 1% HNF-1beta, 0% NeuroD1/ BETA2, and 20% glucokinase.
609 11272211 IPF-1 mutations are associated with a higher age at diagnosis (42.7 years) than HNF-1alpha (20.4 years), HNF-1beta (24.2 years), or HNF-4alpha (26.3 years) gene mutations.
610 11289043 Glucagon-like peptide 1 induces differentiation of islet duodenal homeobox-1-positive pancreatic ductal cells into insulin-secreting cells.
611 11289043 Whether the antidiabetic properties of GLP-1 are exclusively due to its insulin secretory activity remains to be determined.
612 11289043 The aim of this study was to investigate whether pancreatic ductal epithelial cells could be differentiated into insulin-secreting cells by exposing them to GLP-1.
613 11289043 A major difference distinguishes these two cell lines: whereas ARIP cells spontaneously express the beta-cell differentiation factor islet duodenal homeobox-1 (IDX-1), PANC-1 cells are characteristically IDX-1 negative.
614 11289043 GLP-1 induced the differentiation of ARIP cells into insulin-synthesizing cells, although it did not affect the phenotype of PANC-1 cells, as determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis.
615 11289043 Differentiation of ARIP cells by exposure to human GLP-1 occurs in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and this is associated with an increase in IDX-1 and insulin mRNA levels.
616 11289043 Interestingly, PANC-1 cells, when stably transfected with human IDX-1, gained responsiveness to GLP-1 and were able to differentiate into beta-cells, as determined by FACS analysis, insulin gene expression, intracellular insulin content, and insulin accumulation in the culture medium.
617 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.
618 11289043 In summary, our study provides evidence that GLP-1 is a differentiation factor for pancreatic ductal cells and that its effect requires the expression of IDX-1.
619 11289043 Glucagon-like peptide 1 induces differentiation of islet duodenal homeobox-1-positive pancreatic ductal cells into insulin-secreting cells.

625 11289043 Interestingly, PANC-1 cells, when stably transfected with human IDX-1, gained responsiveness to GLP-1 and were able to differentiate into beta-cells, as determined by FACS analysis, insulin gene expression, intracellular insulin content, and insulin accumulation in the culture medium.

655 11307309 This form of diabetes can result from mutations in at least seven different genes: hepatocyte nuclear factor(HNF)-4 alpha/MODY1, glucokinase/MODY2, HNF-1 alpha/MODY3, insulin promoter factor(IPF-1)/MODY4, HNF-1 beta/MODY5, NeuroD1/MODY6 and Islet(Isl)-1/MODY7.
656 11307309 Mutations in HNF-1 alpha/MODY3 are the most common cause of MODY in Japanese identified to date accounting for about 15% of cases of MODY.
657 11307309 Mutations in the HNF-4 alpha/MODY1, glucokinase/MODY2, HNF-1 beta/MODY5 and Isl-1/MODY7 genes have also been found in Japanese; however, they are rare causes of MODY.
658 11307309 Patients who have mutations in the HNF-1 beta/MODY5 gene have non-diabetic kidney dysfunction including renal cysts.
659 11307309 Genetic approach for type 2 diabetes had done by using non-parameteric linkage analysis such as sibpair analysis which worked well and NIDDM1 and NIDDM2 have been identified to date.
660 11307309 The responsible gene for NIDDM1 was recently identified to be Calpain 10, and SNP43 in this gene could explain all of the evidence for linkage in Mexican American type 2 diabetes.

762 11679424 We characterized a 0.58-kb Shp-1 promoter and determined that the decreased expression of Shp-1 may be indirectly mediated by a downregulation of Hnf-4alpha.
763 11679424 We further showed that Shp-1 can repress its own transcriptional activation by inhibiting Hnf-4alpha function, thereby establishing a feedback autoregulatory loop.
764 11687580 Cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta and interferon-gamma, are putative mediators of immune-induced beta-cell death and, under in vitro conditions, cause beta-cell apoptosis.
765 11687580 We have recently shown that interleukin-1 beta + interferon-gamma modifies the expression of >200 genes in beta-cells.
766 11687580 To identify cytokine-induced and NF-kappa B-regulated genes in primary rat beta-cells, we presently combined two experimental approaches: 1) blocking of NF-kappa B activation in cytokine-exposed beta-cells by a recombinant adenovirus (AdI kappa B((SA)2)) containing an inhibitor of NF-kappa B alpha (I kappa Bac) super-repressor (S32A/S36A) and 2) study of gene expression by microarray analysis.
767 11687580 Cytokine-induced NF-kappa B activation decreased Pdx-1 and increased c-Myc expression.
768 11687580 This, together with NF-kappa B-dependent inhibition of Glut-2, pro-hormone convertase-1, and Isl-1 expression, probably contributes to the loss of differentiated beta-cell functions.
769 11692168 Pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1, PDX-1, a major regulator of beta cell identity and function.
770 11692168 Heterozygous mutations in the gene result in impaired glucose tolerance and symptoms of diabetes as seen in MODY4 and late-onset Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus.
771 11692168 Defects in pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 could therefore contribute to Type II diabetes by affecting compensatory mechanisms that increase the rate of beta-cell neogenesis to meet the increased insulin secretory demand.

775 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.
776 11697865 Application of GIP, GLP-1 derivative NN2211, and activin-A/betacellulin to IMPAN cells in normal culture did not lead to endocrine differentiation.
777 11717395 Mutations in the human genes encoding hepatocyte nuclear factors (HNF) 1alpha, 1beta, 4alpha, and IPF1(PDX1/IDX1/STF1) result in pancreatic beta cell dysfunction and diabetes mellitus.
778 11717395 Hnf1alpha also exerts direct control of pancreatic-specific expression of hnf4gamma and hnf3gamma.
779 11717395 Hnf1alpha dependence of hnf4alpha, hnf4gamma, hnf3gamma, and two previously characterized distal targets (glut2 and pklr) is established only after differentiated cells arise during pancreatic embryonic development.
780 11731484 We further provide evidence that vhnf1 regulates the expression of key patterning genes for these organs. vhnf1 is required for the proper expression of pdx1 and shh (sonic hedgehog) in the gut endoderm, pax2 and wt1 in the pronephric primordial, and valentino (val) in the hindbrain.
781 11756345 Whereas heterozygous mutations in islet-cell transcription factors such as IPF1/IDX-1/STF-1/PDX-1 and NEUROD1/BETA2 serve as a genetic cause of diabetes or glucose intolerance, we investigated the possibility of PAX6 gene mutations being a genetic factor common to aniridia and diabetes.
782 11756345 Oral glucose tolerance tests revealed that all of the patients with a PAX6 gene mutation had glucose intolerance characterized by impaired insulin secretion.
783 11776473 Strategies to increase islet precursor cells from embryonic stem cells include the expression of relevant transcription factors (Pdx1, Ngn3, Isl-1, etc), together with the use of extracellular factors.
784 11781323 Reduction in pancreatic transcription factor PDX-1 impairs glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
785 11781323 To determine how alterations in PDX-1 affect islet function, we examined insulin secretion and islet physiology in mice with one PDX-1 allele inactivated.
786 11781323 PDX-1(+/-) mice had a normal fasting blood glucose and pancreatic insulin content but had impaired glucose tolerance and secreted less insulin during glucose tolerance testing.
787 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.
788 11781323 The in situ perfused pancreas of PDX-1(+/-) mice secreted about 45% less insulin when stimulated with 16.7 mm glucose.
789 11781323 The K(m) for insulin release was similar in wild type and PDX-1(+/-) mice.
790 11781323 Insulin secretion in response to 20 mm arginine was unchanged; the response to 10 nm glucagon-like peptide-1 was slightly increased.
791 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.

840 11799123 Induction of c-Myc expression suppresses insulin gene transcription by inhibiting NeuroD/BETA2-mediated transcriptional activation.
841 11799123 We have found that hyperglycemia induces the expression of the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor c-Myc in islets in several different diabetic models.
842 11799123 Adenovirus-mediated c-Myc overexpression suppressed both insulin gene transcription and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
843 11799123 Insulin protein content, determined by immunostaining, was markedly decreased in c-Myc-overexpressing cells.
844 11799123 In gel-shift assays c-Myc bound to the E-box in the insulin gene promoter region.
845 11799123 Furthermore, in betaTC1, MIN6, and HIT-T15 cells and primary rat islets, wild type insulin gene promoter activity was dramatically decreased by c-Myc overexpression, whereas the activity of an E-box mutated insulin promoter was not affected.
846 11799123 In HeLa and HepG2 cells c-Myc exerted a suppressive effect on the insulin promoter activity only in the presence of NeuroD/BETA2 but not PDX-1.
847 11799123 Both c-Myc and NeuroD can bind the E-box element in the insulin promoter, but unlike NeuroD, the c-Myc transactivation domain lacked the ability to activate insulin gene expression.
848 11799123 Additionally p300, a co-activator of NeuroD, did not function as a co-activator of c-Myc.
849 11799123 In conclusion, increased expression of c-Myc in beta-cells suppresses the insulin gene transcription by inhibiting NeuroD-mediated transcriptional activation.

859 11834421 Pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1) (also known as insulin promoter factor-1, islet/duodenum homeobox-1, somatostatin transactivating factor-1, insulin upstream factor-1 and glucose-sensitive factor) is a transcription factor encoded by a Hox-like homeodomain gene.
860 11834421 In adult subjects, PDX-1 is essential for normal pancreatic islet function as suggested by its regulatory action on the expression of a number of pancreatic genes, including insulin, somatostatin, islet amyloid polypeptide, the glucose transporter type 2 and glucokinase.

912 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.

918 11914043 Insulin promotor factor-1 (IPF-1) is a gene critical for pancreatic development and insulin transcription.
919 11914736 The majority of the islet-restricted (BETA2, PDX-1, RIP3b1-Act/C1) and ubiquitous (E2A, HEB) insulin-binding proteins have been characterized.
920 11914736 Their DNA binding activity and their transactivating potency can be modified in response to nutrients (glucose, NEFA) or hormonal stimuli (insulin, leptin, glucagon like peptide-1, growth hormone, prolactin) through kinase-dependent signalling pathways (PI3-K, p38MAPK, PKA, CaMK) modulating their affinities for DNA and/or for each other.
921 11924926 In humans, mutations in leptin, leptin receptor, proopiomelanocortin (POMC), melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) and prohormone convertase 1 (PC1) have been described in patients with severe obesity.
922 11924926 Most of these obesity disorders, with the exception of the MC4R mutations, exhibit recessive inheritance and a distinct phenotype with varying degrees of hypothalamic dysfunction, and they unravel the critical role of the central leptin and melanocortin pathways in human appetite control and energy homeostasis.
923 11924926 To date, six MODY genes have been identified, the glucokinase gene and five beta cell-specific transcription factor genes, hepatocyte nuclear factor-1alpha (HNF-1alpha), HNF-1beta, HNF-4alpha, insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF-1) and NeuroD1/BETA2.
924 11924926 At the other end of the spectrum are the inherited syndromes of insulin resistance that are caused by mutations in the insulin receptor gene and in the adipocyte-specific transcription factor PPARgamma.
925 11961501 GLP-1, released from intestinal L-cells, is renowned for its potent stimulation of insulin biosynthesis and release from pancreatic b-cells.
926 11961501 Exogenous administration of GLP-1 to subjects with type 2 diabetes results in the normalization of plasma glucose concentrations, in part, as a result of augmented glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
927 11961501 GLP-1 also reduces plasma glucose levels by suppressing glucagon secretion from pancreatic a-cells and potentially by improving insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.
928 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.

949 11979019 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous subtype of familial diabetes mellitus characterized by early onset, autosomal dominant inheritance and primary defects of insulin secretion.
950 11979019 These genes encode the enzyme glucokinase and the transcription factors hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha, hepatocyte nuclear factor 1alpha, insulin promoter factor-1, hepatocyte nuclear factor 1beta and neuroD1.
951 11984998 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous subtype of type 2 diabetes characterised by an early onset, an autosomal dominant inheritance, and a primary defect in insulin secretion.
952 11984998 So far, six MODY genes have been identified (MODY1-6): hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF-4 alpha), glucokinase, HNF-1 alpha, HNF-1 beta, insulin promoter factor 1(IPF-1), and neurogenic differentiation factor 1 (NEUROD1).
953 11984998 MODY2 and MODY3 are the most common forms of MODY.
954 11984998 In contrast, MODY3 and some of the other MODY forms are characterised by major insulin secretory defects and severe hyperglycaemia associated with microvascular complications.

1011 12011047 Involvement of c-Jun N-terminal kinase in oxidative stress-mediated suppression of insulin gene expression.
1012 12011047 In this study, subjecting rat islets to oxidative stress activates JNK, p38 MAPK, and protein kinase C, preceding the decrease of insulin gene expression.
1013 12011047 Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of dominant-negative type (DN) JNK, but not the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 nor the protein kinase C inhibitor GF109203X, protected insulin gene expression and secretion from oxidative stress.
1014 12011047 Moreover, wild type JNK overexpression suppressed both insulin gene expression and secretion.
1015 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.
1016 12011047 In conclusion, activation of JNK is involved in the reduction of insulin gene expression by oxidative stress, and suppression of the JNK pathway protects beta-cells from oxidative stress.
1017 12031967 Overexpression of c-Myc in beta-cells of transgenic mice causes proliferation and apoptosis, downregulation of insulin gene expression, and diabetes.
1018 12031967 To test the hypothesis that c-Myc plays an important role in beta-cell growth and differentiation, we generated transgenic mice overexpressing c-Myc in beta-cells under control of the rat insulin II promoter.
1019 12031967 GLUT2 mRNA was decreased, but other beta-cell-associated genes (IAPP [islet amyloid pancreatic polypeptide], PDX-1 [pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1], and BETA2/NeuroD) were expressed at near-normal levels.
1020 12031967 Immunostaining for both GLUT2 and Nkx6.1 was mainly cytoplasmic.
1021 12031967 In conclusion, these studies demonstrate that activation of c-Myc in beta-cells leads to 1) increased proliferation and apoptosis, 2) initial hyperplasia with amorphous islet organization, and 3) selective downregulation of insulin gene expression and the development of overt diabetes.
1022 12048252 These differentiated cells can self-assemble to form three-dimensional islet cell-like clusters that express pancreatic islet cell differentiation-related transcripts detectable by reverse transcription-PCR/nested PCR (e.g., PDX-1, PAX-4, PAX-6, Nkx2.2 and Nkx6.1, insulin I, insulin II, glucose transporter 2, and glucagon) and islet-specific hormones detectable by immunocytochemistry (e.g., insulin, glucagon, and pancreatic polypeptide).
1023 12049785 We show here that these cells express islet amyloid polypeptide and prohormone convertase 1/3 (PC1/3), proteins that are not expressed by mature alpha cells, but are found in beta cells.
1024 12049785 PC1/3 converts proglucagon to the functionally distinct hormones glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and GLP-2 rather than glucagon.
1025 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.

1033 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).
1034 12124776 Double immunostaining showed that PDX-1 coexisted with insulin and glucagon in EX-4-treated cells.

1121 12150938 PDX-1 mediates glucose responsiveness of GAD(67), but not GAD(65), gene transcription in islets of Langerhans.
1122 12150938 Glucose-regulated transcription of the insulin gene is in part mediated via the homeobox transcription factor PDX-1.
1123 12150938 We have studied the mRNA level of two isoforms of GAD, GAD(65) and GAD(67), and found that GAD(67) but not GAD(65) mRNA steady-state level is regulated by glucose.
1124 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.
1125 12150938 These data strongly suggest that PDX-1 is involved in glucose-regulated expression of GAD(67).

1141 12173691 Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a genetic subgroup of diabetes characterised by an autosomal dominant inheritance and early onset, non-insulin dependent diabetes.
1142 12173691 Patients with mutation in genes encoding the transcription factors, hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)- 1alpha, HNF-4alpha, HNF-1beta and insulin promoter factor 1 (IPF-1) have a common progressive beta-cell failure resulting in increasing hyperglycaemia and treatment requirements.
1143 12173691 Patients with transcription factor mutations have a range of discrete extra-pancreatic phenotypes including a low renal threshold for glucose with HNF-1alpha mutations, altered lipids and lipoproteins with HNF-4alpha mutations and a variety of cystic renal diseases and uterine and genital developmental disorders with HNF-1beta mutations.
1144 12193532 P. obesus islets do not increase proinsulin gene expression when exposed to high glucose, which may be related to absence of the conserved form of the transcription factor insulin promoter factor 1/pancreatic-duodenal homeobox 1.
1145 12193564 The incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and cholecystokinin (CCK) are known to be released from the gut in response to oral feeding and enhance insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells.
1146 12193564 We exposed fetal pig islet-like cell clusters (ICCs) to 100 nM GLP-1, 5 micro M CCK, or 10 mM nicotinamide (NIC; a positive control) for 6 h and demonstrated 3- and 1.7-fold increases in glucose-induced insulin secretion for GLP-1 and CCK, respectively.
1147 12193564 However, exposure for 4 d enhanced formation of beta-cells from undifferentiated cells, from 8 +/- 1% (controls) to 17 +/- 3% for GLP-1, 20 +/- 4% for CCK, and 15 +/- 1 for NIC (P < 0.001).
1148 12193564 ICCs exposed to GLP-1 for 3 d also showed a 1.9-fold increase in the intensity of PDX-1(+) cells, as assessed by semiquantitative fluorescent immunocytochemistry.
1149 12193564 Perfusion of these grafts at 2 months showed that ICCs previously exposed to GLP-1, CCK, and NIC (but not controls), were functional and mature.
1150 12193564 In conclusion, GLP-1 and CCK have a dual effect on fetal pig ICCs, causing maturation of glucose-induced insulin secretion from beta-cells as well as enhancement of differentiation from undifferentiated precursors.
1151 12193567 Transfection of pancreatic-derived beta-cells with a minigene encoding for human glucagon-like peptide-1 regulates glucose-dependent insulin synthesis and secretion.
1152 12193567 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone derived from the proglucagon gene, capable of regulating the transcription of the three major genes that determine the pancreatic beta-cell-specific phenotype: insulin, GLUT-2, and glucokinase.
1153 12193567 Two constructs were generated: In one, the expression of GLP-1 was under the control of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter (CMV/GLP-1), and the second was regulated by the rat insulin II promoter (RIP)/GLP-1).
1154 12193567 Gene expression studies revealed that although CMV/GLP-1 cells did not gain a greater glucose sensitivity as a result of the transfection with GLP-1, compared with cells transfected with the plasmid alone, RIP/GLP-1 was capable of regulating the gene expression of insulin and GLP-1 based on the concentration of glucose in the culture medium.
1155 12193567 Detection of the counterpart proteins (insulin and GLP-1) in the culture medium paralleled the observation derived from the Northern blot analysis.
1156 12193567 GLP-1 action was mediated by an IDX-1 (islet/duodenum homeobox-1) dependent transactivation of the endogenous insulin promoter, as demonstrated by gel shift analysis.
1157 12193567 This was further suggested by a significant increase of the glucose-dependent binding of IDX-1 to the insulin promoter in RIP/GLP-1 cells but not in CMV/GLP-1 cells or control cells.
1158 12193567 Finally, we observed that although the GLP-1-dependent secretion of insulin was mediated by an increase in cAMP levels, the transcription of the insulin gene, in response to GLP-1, was in large part cAMP independent.
1159 12193567 Transfection of pancreatic-derived beta-cells with a minigene encoding for human glucagon-like peptide-1 regulates glucose-dependent insulin synthesis and secretion.

1165 12193567 This was further suggested by a significant increase of the glucose-dependent binding of IDX-1 to the insulin promoter in RIP/GLP-1 cells but not in CMV/GLP-1 cells or control cells.

1167 12203996 Several genes are known to induce MODY : HNF4A/MODY1, GCK/MODY2, TCF1/MODY3, IPF1/MODY4, TCF2/MODY5 and NEUROD1/MODY6.
1168 12219087 Regulation of insulin action and pancreatic beta-cell function by mutated alleles of the gene encoding forkhead transcription factor Foxo1.
1169 12219087 We show that haploinsufficiency of the Foxo1 gene, encoding a forkhead transcription factor (forkhead box transcription factor O1), restores insulin sensitivity and rescues the diabetic phenotype in insulin-resistant mice by reducing hepatic expression of glucogenetic genes and increasing adipocyte expression of insulin-sensitizing genes.
1170 12219087 Conversely, a gain-of-function Foxo1 mutation targeted to liver and pancreatic beta-cells results in diabetes arising from a combination of increased hepatic glucose production and impaired beta-cell compensation due to decreased Pdx1 expression.
1171 12219087 These data indicate that Foxo1 is a negative regulator of insulin sensitivity in liver, adipocytes and pancreatic beta-cells.
1172 12219087 Impaired insulin signaling to Foxo1 provides a unifying mechanism for the common metabolic abnormalities of type 2 diabetes.NOTE: In the AOP version of this article, the name of the fourth author was misspelled as W K Cavanee rather than the correct spelling: W K Cavenee.
1173 12242483 Immunohistochemically, small cells are positive for PDX-1, synaptophysin, insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide, alpha-fetaprotein and Bcl-2 and negative for cytokeratin 19 and nestin.
1174 12323111 The failure of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in beta cells helps to sustain the elevations of serum glucose and free fatty acids, which in turn reinforce the failure of GSIS, possibly by inhibiting expression of the transcription factor IDX-1; NIDDM thus represents a vicious cycle that is not easily broken.
1175 12323111 Long-lived analogs of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) may find a key role in BRT; this incretin hormone not only potentiates GSIS, but also appears to increase the expression and activity of IDX-1 in beta cells, thus promoting beta cell redifferentiation.

1178 12438314 At the same time points, high hyperglycemia rats showed a global alteration in gene expression with decreased mRNA for insulin, IAPP, islet-associated transcription factors (pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1, BETA2/NeuroD, Nkx6.1, and hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha), beta-cell metabolic enzymes (glucose transporter 2, glucokinase, mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate carboxylase), and ion channels/pumps (Kir6.2, VDCC beta, and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 3).
1179 12438314 Conversely, genes normally suppressed in beta-cells, such as lactate dehydrogenase-A, hexokinase I, glucose-6-phosphatase, stress genes (heme oxygenase-1, A20, and Fas), and the transcription factor c-Myc, were markedly increased.
1180 12473241 Insulin is a predominant autoantigen in IDDM in man and the NOD mouse.
1181 12473241 None of the known pancreatic transcription factors for insulin; Pdx-1, Pax6 or Nkx6.1 were detectable in the thymus of Balb/c mice.
1182 12473241 These results support the idea that low insulin expression in the thymus may be a predisposing cause for development of diabetes in NOD mice analogous with what has been found in humans with the disease-disposing IDDM2 allele.

1333 12829700 The paired homeodomain transcription factor Pax4 is implicated in the differentiation of the insulin-producing beta-cell lineage because disruption of the pax4 gene results in a severe deficiency of beta-cells and the manifestation of diabetes mellitus in mice.
1334 12837760 Neurogenin3 and hepatic nuclear factor 1 cooperate in activating pancreatic expression of Pax4.
1335 12837760 During fetal development, paired/homeodomain transcription factor Pax4 controls the formation of the insulin-producing beta cells and the somatostatin-producing delta cells in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
1336 12837760 This short sequence contains binding sites for homeodomain transcription factors PDX1 and hepatic nuclear factor (HNF)1, nuclear receptor HNF4alpha, and basic helix-loop-helix factor Neurogenin3.
1337 12837760 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.
1338 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.
1339 12837760 These data demonstrate how Neurogenin3 and HNF1alpha activate the pax4 gene during the cascade of gene expression events that control pancreatic endocrine cell development.
1340 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.
1341 12882918 ES cells were evaluated for their ability to differentiate into pancreatic and islet lineage-restricted stages including pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1)-positive pancreatic precursor cells, early endocrine cell progenitors, and islet hormone-producing cells.
1342 12882918 Following growth and differentiation in nonselective medium containing serum, murine ES cells spontaneously differentiated into cells individually expressing each of the four major islet hormones: insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide.
1343 12882918 Hormone-positive cells appeared within focal clusters of cells coexpressing PDX1 and the nonclassical hormone markers peptide YY (YY) and islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) in combination with the definitive hormones, characteristic of endocrine cells appearing during early pancreaticogenesis.

1347 12970316 However, transcriptional activity of both mutant IPF1 proteins, alone or in combination with HNF3 beta/Foxa2, Pbx1, or the heterodimer E47-beta 2 was reduced, findings accounted for by decreased IPF1 steady state levels and not by impaired protein-protein interactions.
1348 14509268 We reproduce this effect of dexamethasone in vitro using organ cultures of mouse embryonic pancreas, and show that it is associated with an elevation of expression of the transcription factor C/EBPbeta (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta) and a reduction of the transcription factor Pdx-1 (pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1).
1349 14509268 We conclude that dexamethasone inhibits insulin expression in pancreatic beta-cells via a mechanism involving down-regulation of Pdx-1 and induction of C/EBPbeta.

1352 14602071 We demonstrate that alpha6beta4 integrin mediates pancreatic epithelial cell adhesion to Netrin-1, whereas recruitment of alpha6beta4 and alpha3beta1 regulate the migration of CK19+/PDX1+ putative pancreatic progenitors on Netrin-1.

1369 14651921 In the pancreas, mesenchymal FGF10 is required to maintain the Pdx1-expressing epithelial progenitor cell population, and in the absence of FGF10 signaling, these cells fail to proliferate.

1375 14694850 Major break-throughs in the genetic sciences of type 2 diabetes have been identifications of insulin receptor gene mutations in syndromes of severe insulin resistance and mutations in pancreatic beta-cell genes in the monogenic sub-group of type 2 diabetes: maturity-onset-diabetes-of-the-young, MODY.
1376 14694850 The studies reported in this thesis are excerpts from an extensive strategy of genetically dissecting (mutation analysis) in: 1) patients with the common form of late-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus the pathways that transduce the insulin signals from the plasma membrane to the activation of glycogen synthesis in skeletal muscle, and in 2) patients with either late-onset type diabetes or MODY the pathways involved in normal beta-cell development and beta-cell function (insulin secretion).
1377 14694850 We could not confirm that a Val985Met variant in the insulin receptor is associated with type 2 diabetes or that the Met326Val of the p85 alpha regulatory subunit of the phosphoinositide-3 kinase is associated with insulin resistance.
1378 14694850 We found no coding mutations (missense) in the insulin signalling protein kinases but we confirmed that the 5 bp deletion (PP1ARE) in the 3'-end of the PPP1R3 gene that encodes the glycogen-associated regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase-1 (PP1G) is associated with insulin resistance estimated as insulin mediated glucose uptake.
1379 14694850 In contrast to protein kinases in skeletal muscles the genes encoding beta-cell transcription factors (IPF-1, NeuroD1/BETA2, and Neurogenin 3) are polymorphic but we could not confirm that the Asp76Asn of IPF-1 is a susceptibility gene for late-onset type 2 diabetes.
1380 14694850 On the other hand we confirmed that the Ala45Thr variant in NeuroD1/BETA2 may represent a susceptibility gene for type 1 diabetes but none of these genes revealed any MODY-specific mutations.
1381 14694850 Also the gene encoding the ATP-regulatable potassium channels of the beta-cell (Kir6.2) is polymorphic but none of these polymorphisms associated with changes in glucose-induced insulin secretion.
1382 14729487 The concerted activities of Pax4 and Nkx2.2 are essential to initiate pancreatic beta-cell differentiation.
1383 14729487 By inactivating the homeobox gene Pax4, we previously demonstrated that its function is required for the formation of mature insulin-producing cells.
1384 14729487 Pax4 activity appears essential for appropriate initiation of beta-cell differentiation because loss of Pax4 prevents the expression of Pdx1, HB9 and insulin in beta-cell precursors.
1385 14729487 This role of Pax4 appears to be accomplished via its genetic interaction with another homeobox gene, Nkx2.2.

1391 15001545 The introduction of the point mutations S66A/Y68A in the highly conserved amino-terminal PDX-1 transactivation domain reduced the ability of PDX-1 to interact with p300, substantially diminished the transcriptional activation of PDX-1, and reduced the synergistic activation of glucose-responsive insulin promoter enhancer sequences by PDX-1, E12, and E47.

1464 15044356 The proliferative effects of GLP-1 appear to involve multiple intracellular pathways, including stimulation of Akt, activation of protein kinase Czeta, and transactivation of the epidermal growth factor receptor through the c-src kinase.

1629 15180990 Although chromatin immunoprecipitation assays show that both Pax-6 and Pdx-1 bind to the IGRP promoter within intact cells, in contrast to the critical role of these factors in beta cell-specific insulin gene expression, IGRP gene transcription appears to require Pax-6 but not Pdx-1.

1676 15479216 Moreover, PUFAs prevent insulin resistance by increasing membrane fluidity and GLUT4 transport.
1677 15479216 The depletion of IMTG depots is strictly associated with an improvement of insulin sensitivity, via a reduced acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) mRNA expression and an increased GLUT4 expression and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity.

1683 15561912 Chronic exposure to GLP-1R agonists promotes homologous GLP-1 receptor desensitization in vitro but does not attenuate GLP-1R-dependent glucose homeostasis in vivo.
1684 15561912 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion and inhibits food intake, gastric emptying, and glucagon secretion, actions that promote reduction of fasting and postprandial glycemia in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
1685 15561912 Similarly, the levels of insulin, pdx-1, and GLP-1 receptor mRNA transcripts were comparable in wild-type and MT-Ex-4 transgenic mice after 1 week of Ex-4 administration.
1686 15561943 The dogma that IGF-I stimulates pancreatic islet growth has been challenged by combinational targeting of IGF or IGF-IR (IGF receptor) genes as well as beta-cell-specific IGF-IR gene deficiency, which caused no defect in islet cell growth.
1687 15561943 To assess the physiological role of locally produced IGF-I, we have developed pancreatic-specific IGF-I gene deficiency (PID) by crossing Pdx1-Cre and IGF-I/loxP mice.

1730 15582592 Constitutively active PDX1 induced efficient insulin production in adult murine liver.
1731 15582592 To generate insulin-producing cells in the liver, recombinant adenovirus containing a constitutively active mutant of PDX1 (PDX1-VP16), designed to activate target genes without the need for protein partners, was prepared and administered intravenously to streptozotocin (STZ)-treated diabetic mice.

1750 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.
1751 15593029 These genes encode the glycolytic enzyme glucokinase (MODY 2) and the other five encode the transcription factors hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF) 4alpha (MODY 1), HNF-1alpha (MODY 3), HNF-1beta (MODY 5), insulin promoter factor 1 (IPF-1) (MODY 4) and neurogenic differentiation factor-1 (NeuroD1) (MODY 6).
1752 15604203 Knockout of the genes for Pdx1, Hlxb9, Isl1, or Hex results in an arrest of pancreas development at a very early stage (embryonic d 8-9).

1754 15604203 Disruption of transcription factor genes expressed more downstream in the developmental cascade (Beta2/NeuroD, Pax4, NKx2.2, and Nkx6.1) curtails the formation of insulin-producing beta-cells.

1756 15609091 Co-localization of nestin and PDX-1 in small evaginations of the main pancreatic duct in adult rats.
1757 15622524 Most of the IL-1beta effects seem to be mediated by NF-kappaB transcription factor activation, but its role in the induction of islet beta-cell apoptosis has not yet been clarified.
1758 15622524 Our results show that TPCK blocked rIL-1beta-mediated early increase of MnSOD activity and beta-cell defence/repair protein expression, suggesting a protective role for NF-kappaB at the beginning of IL-1beta treatment; but, in a second phase, NF-kappaB induces a sustained decrease of specific beta-cell proteins like insulin, GLUT-2 and PDX-1 with a concomitant increase of aspecific proteins and iNOS transcription.
1759 15622524 Since IL-1beta induction of apoptosis is completely prevented by TCPK treatment, this finding underscores the central role of NF-kappaB in this process.
1760 15622524 Thus, our results clearly indicate that NF-kappaB regulates MnSOD genes expression and MnSOD activity, which protects islet beta-cells by IL-1beta damage.
1761 15622524 Furthermore, when the IL-1beta stress impairs islet beta-cell function, NF-kappaB activation regulates the entrance of islet beta-cell into the cell death program.
1762 15631623 The three Fox (forkhead box) group A genes, Foxa1, Foxa2 and Foxa3, are expressed in embryonic endoderm, the germ layer that gives rise to the digestive system, and contribute to the specification of the pancreas and the regulation of glucose homoeostasis.
1763 15631623 Deletion of the Foxa2 gene in pancreatic beta-cells in mice results in a phenotype resembling PHHI (persistent hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia of infancy).
1764 15631623 Molecular analyses have demonstrated that Foxa2 is an important regulator of the genes encoding Sur1, Kir6.2 and Schad (short chain L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase), mutation of which causes PHHI in humans.
1765 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.

1780 15671479 Foxo1, a member of the Fox0 subfamily of winged-helix forkhead transcription factors, is a target of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) signal transduction pathways that activate protein kinase B (PKB) in pancreatic beta cells.
1781 15671479 Foxo1 is a substrate for PKB, and its phosphorylation results in nuclear exclusion with concomitant alterations in gene expression that are important to cellular growth and differentiation.
1782 15671479 Because activation of PKB can require insulin receptor substrate proteins (IRS-1 and IRS-2) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), it is of interest to determine whether the activity of Foxo1 is also regulated by heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) with IRS-1 or -2, PI3K, or PKB signaling potential.
1783 15671479 Indeed, studies of beta cells have demonstrated that activation of a GPCR for the blood glucose-lowering hormone GLP-1 leads to major alterations of IRS-2, PI3K, and PKB activity.
1784 15671479 By promoting nuclear exclusion of Foxo1 in a PKB-mediated manner, GLP-1 may up-regulate the expression of a homeodomain transcription factor (PDX-1) that serves as a master regulator of beta-cell growth and differentiation.

1875 15923615 MafA is a transcription factor that binds to the promoter in the insulin gene and has been postulated to regulate insulin transcription in response to serum glucose levels, but there is no current in vivo evidence to support this hypothesis.

2019 16339272 In human adipocytes overexpressing KLF7, the expression of adiponectin and leptin was decreased compared with that in control cells, whereas expression of IL-6 was increased.
2020 16339272 In the insulin-secreting cell line (HIT-T15 cells), the expression and glucose-induced secretion of insulin were significantly suppressed in KLF7-overexpressed cells compared with control cells, accompanied by the reduction in the expression of glucose transporter 2, sulfonylurea receptor 1, Kir6.2, and pancreatic-duodenal homeobox factor 1.
2021 16339272 We also found that the overexpression of KLF7 resulted in the decrease of hexokinase 2 expression in smooth muscle cells, and of glucose transporter 2 expression in the HepG2 cells.
2022 16339272 These results suggest that KLF7 may contribute to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes through an impairment of insulin biosynthesis and secretion in pancreatic beta-cells and a reduction of insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.

2041 16443759 Although bone marrow cells expressing GFP under the ubiquitously expressed beta-actin promoter efficiently engrafted the pancreas of normal and hyperglycemic mice, virtually all expressed CD45 and Mac-1/Gr-1, demonstrating that they adopt a hematopoietic rather than beta-cell fate, a finding further substantiated by the complete absence of GFP(+) cells expressing insulin and the beta-cell transcription factors pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1 and homeodomain protein.
2042 16449294 Activation of the Reg family genes by pancreatic-specific IGF-I gene deficiency and after streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mouse pancreas.
2043 16449294 We have recently reported that Pdx1-Cre-mediated whole pancreas inactivation of IGF-I gene [in pancreatic-specific IGF-I gene-deficient (PID) mice] results in increased beta-cell mass and significant protection against both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
2044 16449294 Because the phenotype is unlikely a direct consequence of IGF-I deficiency, the present study was designed to explore possible activation of proislet factors in PID mice by using a whole genome DNA microarray.
2045 16449294 Immunohistochemistry revealed increased Reg proteins in exocrine as well as endocrine pancreas and suggested their potential role in beta-cell neogenesis in PID or T1D mice.
2046 16449294 These uncharacterized Reg proteins may play a similar but more potent role, not only in normal islet cell growth in PID mice, but also in islet cell regeneration after T1D.
2047 16460677 Human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into insulin, somatostatin, and glucagon expressing cells.

2062 16497530 The human forkhead box O1A (FOXO1A) gene on chromosome 13q14.1 is a key transcription factor in insulin signaling in liver and adipose tissue and plays a central role in the regulation of key pancreatic beta-cell genes including IPF1.
2063 16497530 We hypothesized that sequence variants of FOXO1A contribute to the observed defects in hepatic and peripheral insulin action and altered beta-cell compensation that characterize type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
2064 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.

2066 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).
2067 16505238 Nicotinamide and other low-potency poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors were thus tested for their ability to restore insulin promoter activity.
2068 16505238 The low-potency PARP inhibitors nicotinamide, 3-aminobenzamide, or PD128763 increased expression of a human insulin reporter gene suppressed by elevated glucose.

2089 16543365 Regulation of insulin gene transcription by the immediate-early growth response gene Egr-1.
2090 16543365 Changes in extracellular glucose levels regulate the expression of the immediate-early response gene and zinc finger transcription factor early growth response-1 (Egr-1) in insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells, but key target genes of Egr-1 in the endocrine pancreas have not been identified.
2091 16543365 We found that overexpression of Egr-1 in clonal (INS-1) beta-cells increased transcriptional activation of the rat insulin I promoter.

2093 16543365 Egr-1 did not directly interact with insulin promoter sequences, and mutagenesis of a potential G box recognition sequence for Egr-1 did not impair the Egr-1 responsiveness of the insulin promoter, suggesting that regulation of insulin gene expression by Egr-1 is probably mediated through additional transcription factors.

2116 16549443 Glucose is the major physiologic regulator of insulin gene expression; it coordinately controls the recruitment of transcription factors [e.g., pancreatic/duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1), mammalian homologue of avian MafA/L-Maf (MafA), Beta2/Neuro D (B2), the rate of transcription, and the stability of insulin mRNA.
2117 16549443 The mechanisms of glucotoxicity, which involve decreased binding activities of PDX-1 and MafA and increased activity of C/EBPbeta, are mediated by high-glucose-induced generation of oxidative stress.

2126 16580660 Major insulin gene transcription factors, such as PDX-1 or NeuroD1, have equally important roles in pancreatic development and the differentiation of pancreatic endocrine cells.

2137 16611688 Stabilization of beta-catenin impacts pancreas growth.
2138 16611688 A recent study has shown that deletion of beta-catenin within the pancreatic epithelium results in a loss of pancreas mass.
2139 16611688 Here, we show that ectopic stabilization of beta-catenin within mouse pancreatic epithelium can have divergent effects on both organ formation and growth.
2140 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.
2141 16611688 By contrast, inducing the stabilized form of beta-catenin at a later time point in pancreas development causes enhanced proliferation that results in a dramatic increase in pancreas organ size.
2142 16611688 Taken together, these data suggest a previously unappreciated temporal/spatial role for beta-catenin signaling in the regulation of pancreas organ growth.
2143 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.
2144 16612121 In terms of beta-cell ontogeny, expression of the glucocorticoid receptor in the pancreas coincides with that of the transcription factor Pdx-1 in beta cells.

2159 16705146 Here, we characterized renal changes in the pdx1(PB)-HNF6 transgenic mouse that exhibits beta-cell dysfunction and nonobese hypoinsulinemic diabetes.
2160 16705146 The HNF6 males exhibited albuminuria as early as 10 wk of age, and the urinary albumin excretion increased with age, exceeding 150 microg/24 h at 11 mo of age.
2161 16705146 Immunohistochemistry showed accumulation of type IV collagen and TGF-beta1 in the mesangial area.
2162 16713999 Multipotential nestin and Isl-1 positive mesenchymal stem cells isolated from human pancreatic islets.
2163 16713999 Mesenchymal cells in the developing pancreas express the neural stem cell marker nestin and the transcription factor islet-1 (Isl-1).
2164 16713999 They are positive for Isl-1 and nestin and have the potential to adopt a pancreatic endocrine phenotype with expression of critical transcription factors including Ipf-1, Isl-1, Ngn-3, Pax4, Pax6, Nkx2.2, and Nkx6.1 as well as the islet hormones insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin.
2165 16713999 In conclusion, cultured pancreatic islets contain nestin and Isl-1 positive mesenchymal stem cells with multipotential developmental capacity.
2166 16772326 Genes underrepresented in ZDF islets were either unaffected (Glut-2, Kir6.2, Rab3), stimulated (voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channel subunit alpha1D, CPT2, SUR2, rab9, syt13), or inhibited (syntaxin 7, secretogranin-2) by SREBP-1c inhibition.
2167 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.
2168 16804060 Insulin-positive cells and pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1)-positive cells both were clearly increased in the older compared with the younger transgenic mice.

2172 16814095 The molecular mechanisms involve the development of decreased levels of two very important insulin promoter transcription factors, PDX-1 and MafA.
2173 16822955 Although beta-cell-related gene expression (PDX-1, proinsulin I, GLUT2, glucokinase, amylin) and function (insulin content and secretion) are slightly reduced during p8 overexpression, removal of IPTG reverses beta-cell function within 24 h to normal levels.
2174 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.
2175 16887799 Neuronal dysfunction in Alzheimer patients has been linked to overactivity of the cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) and its activator p35.
2176 16887799 Further, glucose enhances p35 gene expression, promoting the formation of active p35/CDK5 complexes that regulate the expression of the insulin gene.
2177 16887799 We therefore postulated that CDK5 and p35 may be responsible for this beta cell impairment and that inhibition of CDK5 might have a beneficial effect.
2178 16887799 Inhibition of CDK5 prevented this decrease of insulin gene expression.
2179 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.
2180 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.
2181 16887799 Using a Myc-tagged PDX-1 construct, we showed that the translocation of PDX-1 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm during glucotoxic conditions was prevented when CDK5 was inhibited.

2187 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.
2188 16887799 Using a Myc-tagged PDX-1 construct, we showed that the translocation of PDX-1 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm during glucotoxic conditions was prevented when CDK5 was inhibited.
2189 16887799 Neuronal dysfunction in Alzheimer patients has been linked to overactivity of the cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) and its activator p35.
2190 16887799 Further, glucose enhances p35 gene expression, promoting the formation of active p35/CDK5 complexes that regulate the expression of the insulin gene.
2191 16887799 We therefore postulated that CDK5 and p35 may be responsible for this beta cell impairment and that inhibition of CDK5 might have a beneficial effect.
2192 16887799 Inhibition of CDK5 prevented this decrease of insulin gene expression.
2193 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.

2202 16917892 Mutations in the genes encoding the transcription factors hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1A) and 4 alpha (HNF4A) in maturity-onset diabetes of the young.
2203 16917892 MODY is both clinically and genetically heterogeneous, with six different genes identified to date; glucokinase (GCK), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF1A, or TCF1), hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 alpha (HNF4A), insulin promoter factor-1 (IPF1 or PDX1), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 beta (HNF1B or TCF2), and neurogenic differentiation 1 (NEUROD1).
2204 16917892 Mutations in the HNF1A gene are a common cause of MODY in the majority of populations studied.
2205 16917892 Sensitivity to treatment with sulfonylurea tablets is a feature of both HNF1A and HNF4A mutations.
2206 16917892 The identification of an HNF1A or 4A gene mutation confirms a diagnosis of MODY and has important implications for clinical management.
2207 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.
2208 16938896 Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that has received significant attention as a therapy for diabetes because of its ability to stimulate insulin biosynthesis and release and to promote growth and survival of insulin-producing beta cells.
2209 16938896 While GLP-1 is produced from the proglucagon precursor by means of prohormone convertase (PC) 1/3 activity in enteroendocrine L cells, the same precursor is differentially processed by PC2 in pancreatic islet alpha cells to release glucagon, leaving GLP-1 trapped within a larger fragment with no known function.
2210 16938896 We hypothesized that we could induce GLP-1 production directly within pancreatic islets by means of delivery of PC1/3 and, further, that this intervention would improve the viability and function of islets.
2211 16938896 Here, we show that adenovirus-mediated expression of PC1/3 in alpha cells increases islet GLP-1 secretion, resulting in improved glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and enhanced survival in response to cytokine treatment.
2212 16938896 PC1/3 expression in alpha cells also improved performance after islet transplantation in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes, possibly by enhancing nuclear Pdx1 and insulin content of islet beta cells.
2213 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.

2246 16990588 The islet-like clusters showed endocrine gene expression typical for pancreatic beta-cell development and function, such as insulin (I and II), glucagon, somatostatin, GLUT-2, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1), and Pax 4.
2247 17003335 Fas, a death receptor regulated by IL-1beta, is involved in glucose-induced beta-cell apoptosis.
2248 17003335 Fas engagement can be switched from death signal to induction of proliferation when the caspase 8 inhibitor, FLICE-inhibitory protein (FLIP), is active.
2249 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.
2250 17003335 In contrast, Fas induction by IL-1beta was monophasic.
2251 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.
2252 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.
2253 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.
2254 17003335 Fas, a death receptor regulated by IL-1beta, is involved in glucose-induced beta-cell apoptosis.

2261 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.
2262 17003479 The receptors Notch1 and Notch2, members of the DSL family of Notch ligands, and the target genes in the Notch-signaling pathway Hes1, Hey1, and Hey2 become strongly up-regulated.
2263 17003479 This effect seems to be Hes1-independent and mainly coincides with decreased Hey1 and Hey2 mRNA expression.
2264 17009890 PPlike cells show a strong upregulation of Ipf1/Pdx1, p48, Isl-1 and Nkx6.1, but not Ngn3, NeuroD/ Beta2 or Pax4.
2265 17045527 Co-incident with these changes are profound alterations in insulin gene expression, which involve greatly diminished levels of two transcription factors, MafA and Pdx-1.
2266 17048266 Forced expression of the beta-cell-specific transcription factor Pdx1 in hepatocytes also holds promise as a therapeutic strategy to increase insulin levels in diabetic individuals.
2267 17049056 Insulin secretion decreased on POD 3 in association with a significant increase of HIF-1alpha-related beta-cell death, which can be suppressed by short-term hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
2268 17049056 In contrast, improvement of nerve growth factor and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDx-1) production resulted in islet graft recovery and remodeling.
2269 17049056 In addition, significant activation of vascular endothelial growth factor in islet grafts on POD 7 correlated with development of massive newly formed microvessels, whose maturation is advanced on POD 14 with gradual diminution of HIF-1alpha.
2270 17049056 We conclude that (1) transplanted islets strongly express HIF-1alpha in association with beta-cell death and decreased insulin production until adequate revascularization is established and (2) early suppression of HIF-1alpha results in less beta-cell death thereby minimizing early graft failure.
2271 17088535 Rare islets contained human cells that colabeled for human insulin or PDX-1.
2272 17095531 It has been shown that abnormal O-GlcNAc modification (O-GlcNAcylation) of proteins is one of the causes of insulin resistance and diabetic complications.
2273 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.
2274 17095531 PUGNAc, an inhibitor of O-GlcNAcase, induced an elevation of O-GlcNAc level and a decrease of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in isolated islets.
2275 17095531 These results indicate that elevation of the O-GlcNAcylation of proteins leads to deterioration of insulin secretion in the pancreas of diabetic GK rats, further providing evidence for the role of O-GlcNAc in the insulin secretion.
2276 17110468 Islet-derived fibroblast-like cells are not derived via epithelial-mesenchymal transition from Pdx-1 or insulin-positive cells.

2313 17130462 The major findings are that the A-box sites that bind PDX-1 are among the most highly conserved regulatory sequences, and that the conservation of the C1, E1, and CRE sequences emphasize the importance of MafA, E47/beta2, and cAMP-associated regulation.
2314 17130469 Transgenic mice in which Hnf6 expression is maintained in postnatal islets (pdx1(PB)Hnf6) show overt diabetes and impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) at weaning.
2315 17130469 We provide evidence that continued expression of Hnf6 impairs GSIS by altering insulin granule biosynthesis, resulting in a reduced response to secretagogues.
2316 17130469 Sustained expression of Hnf6 also results in downregulation of the beta-cell-specific transcription factor MafA and a decrease in total pancreatic insulin.
2317 17130472 We found insulin receptor substrate (IRS)2 and enhanced-activated Akt immunoreactivity in islets and ducts that correlated with increased pancreatic duodenal homeobox (PDX)1 expression.
2318 17130472 In contrast, forkhead box O1 expression was decreased in islets but increased in ducts, suggesting distinct PDX1 regulatory mechanisms in these tissues.

2322 17150967 Regulation of pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 expression by early growth response-1.
2323 17150967 The homeodomain transcription factor pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1) is a key regulator of pancreatic beta-cell development, function, and survival.
2324 17150967 Deficits in PDX-1 expression result in insulin deficiency and hyperglycemia.
2325 17150967 We previously found that the glucose-responsive transcription factor early growth response-1 (Egr-1) activates the insulin promoter in part by increasing expression levels of PDX-1.
2326 17150967 We now report that Egr-1 binds and activates multiple regulatory sites within the pdx-1 promoter.
2327 17150967 We identified consensus Egr-1 recognition sequences within proximal and distal regions of the mouse pdx-1 promoter and demonstrated specific binding of Egr-1 by chromatin immunoprecipitation and electrophoretic mobility shift assays.
2328 17150967 Overexpression of Egr-1 increased transcriptional activation of the -4500 proximal pdx-1 promoter and of the highly conserved regulatory Areas I, II, and III.
2329 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.
2330 17150967 Egr-1 increased, and a dominant-negative Egr-1 mutant repressed, the transcriptional activation of distal pdx-1 promoter sequences.
2331 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.
2332 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.

2496 17229937 Diazoxide upregulated certain genes known to support beta-cell functionality, such as NKX6.1 and PDX1.
2497 17235302 Adenovirus transduction is required for the correction of diabetes using Pdx-1 or Neurogenin-3 in the liver.

2501 17235568 We studied beta cell regeneration by analyzing the immunocytochemical expression of the transcription factors, PDX-1, PBX-1, and MEIS2, and that of the potential precursor cell markers, c-Kit and nestin, using the model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes in rats.
2502 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.
2503 17235568 These results suggest that temporary upregulation of PDX-1 and prolonged overexpression of c-Kit may play a role during beta cell regeneration.
2504 17235568 We studied beta cell regeneration by analyzing the immunocytochemical expression of the transcription factors, PDX-1, PBX-1, and MEIS2, and that of the potential precursor cell markers, c-Kit and nestin, using the model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes in rats.

2510 17259388 Glucotoxicity in the INS-1 rat insulinoma cell line is mediated by the orphan nuclear receptor small heterodimer partner.
2511 17259388 Small heterodimer partner (SHP; NR0B2) is an atypical orphan nuclear receptor that inhibits nuclear receptor signaling in diverse metabolic pathways.
2512 17259388 In this study, we found that sustained culture of INS-1 cells at high glucose concentrations leads to an increase in SHP mRNA expression, followed by a decrease in insulin gene expression.
2513 17259388 Inhibition of endogenous SHP gene expression by small interfering RNA partially restored high-glucose-induced suppression of the insulin gene.
2514 17259388 Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of SHP in INS-1 cells impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion as well as insulin gene expression.
2515 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.
2516 17263687 The beta-cell specific transcription factor Nkx6.1 inhibits glucagon gene transcription by interfering with Pax6.
2517 17263687 The transcription factor Nkx6.1 is required for the establishment of functional insulin-producing beta-cells in the endocrine pancreas.
2518 17263687 Overexpression of Nkx6.1 has been shown to inhibit glucagon gene expression while favouring insulin gene activation.
2519 17263687 Down-regulation resulted in the opposite effect, suggesting that absence of Nkx6.1 favours glucagon gene expression.
2520 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.
2521 17263687 In glucagonoma cells transfected with an Nkx6.1-encoding vector, the glucagon promoter activity was reduced by 65%.
2522 17263687 In BHK21 cells, Nkx6.1 inhibited by 93% Pax6-mediated activation of the glucagon promoter, whereas Cdx2/3 and Maf stimulations were unaltered.
2523 17263687 Although Nkx6.1 could interact with both the G1 and G3 element, only the former displayed specificity for Nkx6.1.
2524 17263687 Mutagenesis of the three potential AT-rich motifs within the G1 revealed that only the Pax6-binding site preferentially interacted with Nkx6.1.
2525 17263687 Chromatin immunoprecipitation confirmed interaction of Nkx6.1 with the glucagon promoter and revealed a direct competition for binding between Pax6 and Nkx6.1.
2526 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.
2527 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.
2528 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.
2529 17292559 The new drug exenatide, an analog of the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1, may be a worthwhile adjuvant to such fasting therapy, since it tends to counteract the glucolipotoxicity-induced down-regulation of the crucially important beta cell transcription factor IDX-1.
2530 17299038 Fas is a death receptor involved in beta cell apoptosis or proliferation, depending on the activity of the caspase-8 inhibitor FLIP.
2531 17299038 Expression of PDX-1, a beta cell-specific transcription factor regulating insulin gene expression and mitochondrial metabolism, was decreased in Fas-deficient beta cells.
2532 17299038 This led to increased PDX-1 and insulin production independent of changes in cell turnover.
2533 17299038 The results support a previously undescribed role for the Fas pathway in regulating insulin production and release.

2538 17299998 Infection with the adenovirus expressing PDX-1, Ngn3, NeuroD, or Pax4 induced the insulin gene expression.
2539 17299998 NeuroD was the most effective inducer of insulin expression in primary duct cells.
2540 17299998 These data suggest that the overexpression of transcription factors, especially NeuroD, facilitates pancreatic stem/progenitor cell differentiation into insulin-producing cells.
2541 17303800 We provide evidence that mouse beta-cells can undergo dedifferentiation in vitro into an insulin-, pdx1-, and glut2-negative state.

2548 17317781 Pdx1 expression did not induce beta-catenin degradation nor did it alter their subcellular distribution.
2549 17317781 The mutation analysis showed that the amino acids (1-209) of Pdx1 harboring an inhibitory domain, which might lead to the reduction of beta-catenin/Tcf/p300 complex levels and attenuate their binding activity with c-Myc promoter sequences.
2550 17317781 Moreover, adenovirus-mediated Pdx1 interference caused cell proliferation and cytokine-induced apoptosis via the dysregulation of c-Myc transcription.
2551 17317781 These results indicated that the Pdx1 functioned as a key regulator for maintenance of beta-cell function, at least in part, through controlling c-Myc expression and the loss of its regulatory function may be an alternative mechanism for beta-cell neogenesis and apoptosis found in diabetes.

2615 17322477 The effect of mesenchyme was not due to an increase in beta-cell proliferation but was due to increased proliferation of early pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX1)-positive progenitor cells, as confirmed by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation.

2619 17327436 Specifically, we determined patterns of common sequence variation in the genes encoding Gck, Ipf1, Tcf2, and NeuroD1 (MODY2 and MODY4-MODY6, respectively), selected a comprehensive set of 107 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that captured common variation, and genotyped each in 4,206 patients and control subjects from Sweden, Finland, and Canada (including family-based studies and unrelated case-control subjects).
2620 17327436 We combined these results with our previous studies on HNF4alpha and TCF1 and explicitly tested for gene-gene interactions among these variants and with several known type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci, and we found no genetic interactions between these six genes.
2621 17330137 Two array-based approaches were used, a rat insulinoma cell line (INS-1alphabeta) overexpressing pancreatic duodenum homeobox 1 (pdx-1) and treated with interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) as well as human pancreatic islets stimulated with a mixture of cytokines.

2631 17433254 By using real-time RT-PCR, early mRNA expressions of Pdx1, as well as the Sox17 and Foxa2 genes, were observed to be significantly activated in SB-PDMSCs, followed by the expression of mature pancreas-related genes (insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin).

2740 17615265 The pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) gene was expressed in BM-MSC from 14 human donors, and the extent of differentiation of these cells toward the beta-cell phenotype was evaluated.
2741 17706592 Insulin promoter assay showed that Pdx1 highly activates insulin promoter when combined with Ngn3.
2742 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.
2743 17717015 Moreover, confocal microscopy showed colocalization of insulin and pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 (PDX-1) in both endocrine and exocrine pancreas.
2744 17717015 This increase in insulin-expressing cells was accompanied by increased cell proliferation (observed by proliferating cell nuclear antigen-PCNA immunopositivity) which occurred in a regulated manner since it was associated with increased apoptosis (detected by the TUNEL method).

2747 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.
2748 17785922 It was shown that MafA, a beta-cell-specific member of the Maf family of transcription factors, binds to the conserved C1/RIPE3b element of the insulin promoter.
2749 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.

2757 17909627 To explore the impact of disrupting leptin signaling in the pancreas on beta cell growth and/or function, we created pancreas-specific leptin receptor (ObR) KOs using mice expressing Cre recombinase under the control of the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) promoter.
2758 17909627 Similar effects on p70S6K were observed in MIN6 beta cells with knockdown of the ObR gene, suggesting crosstalk between leptin and insulin signaling pathways.
2759 17919187 This effect of SREBP-1c involves multiple functional pathways required for insulin secretion from beta cells: (i) decreased ATP caused by energy consumption through lipogenesis and uncoupling protein-2 (UCP-2) activation; (ii) repressed IRS-2 and pancreas duodenum homeobox 1 (PDX1) expression, leading to impaired beta-cell mass; and (iii) impaired post-ATP membrane voltage-dependent steps of the insulin secretion pathway caused by upregulated granuphilin and other ion channel proteins.
2760 17932425 We show that stepwise differentiation of embryonic stem cells using successive in vivo patterning signals can lead to simultaneous induction of Ptf1a and Pdx1 expression.

2840 17996499 The type 1, 3, and 5 forms of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) are caused by mutations of the genes encoding hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4alpha, HNF-1alpha, and HNF-1beta, respectively [Yamagata, K., Oda, N., Kaisaki, P.J., Menzel, S., Furuta, H., Vaxillaire, M., et al., 1996a.
2841 17996499 Mutation in hepatocyte nuclear factor-1beta gene (TCF2) associated with MODY.
2842 17996499 We performed an immunohistochemical study to investigate its expression in comparison with the expression of HNF-1alpha and HNF-1beta.
2843 17996499 HNF-4alpha and HNF-1beta were initially expressed by Pdx1(+) common progenitor cells and neurogenin3(+) (Ngn3(+)) endocrine precursor cells during the first transition, but expression of HNF-1beta and either HNF-4alpha or HNF-1alpha became complementary around the end of the second transition (E15.5).
2844 17996499 In the mature pancreas, HNF-4alpha was expressed by glucagon-positive alpha-cells, insulin-positive beta-cells, somatostatin-positive delta-cells, and pancreatic polypeptide-positive PP-cells, as well as by pancreatic exocrine cells and ductal cells.
2845 17996499 Most of the HNF-4alpha(+) cells were also positive for HNF-1alpha, but HNF-4alpha expression in some non-beta-cells was remarkably high, and this was not paralleled by high HNF-1alpha expression.
2846 18029451 Unexpectedly expression of Irs2 and the downstream gene Pdx1 were unaffected.
2847 18037333 In particular, we examined and characterized the expression of several stem cell (nestin, ABCG2, c-kit), growth and differentiation markers (GLP-1R, c-met, erbB1), and PDZD2 in PPCs by RT-PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemistry.
2848 18037333 PDZD2 and sPDZD2 were detected at high levels in both human fetal pancreas and in PPCs. sPDZD2 acted as a potent mitogen on PPCs, and inhibited the differentiation of PPC-derived islet-like cell-clusters (ICCs), evidenced by the downregulation of Isl-1, Pdx-1, and insulin mRNA levels. sPDZD2 treatment also reduced levels of C-peptide in ICCs.

2858 18199433 During pancreatic development insulin(+) cells co-express the transcription factors MafB and Pax6, and transition from a MafA(-) to MafA(+) state.
2859 18199433 To examine the role of Pax6 and MafB in the development of beta-cells, we analyzed embryonic pancreata from Pax6- and MafB-deficient mice.
2860 18199433 Pax6 deficiency, as manifest in the Pax6(Sey-Neu) allele, reduced not only the number of cells expressing insulin or glucagon, but also the number of MafB, PDX-1 and MafA expressing cells.
2861 18199433 We show that MafB can directly activate expression of insulin and glucagon, and a MafB protein engineered to contain N248S mutation in the MafB (kr(ENU)) results in significantly reduced activation.
2862 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.
2863 18199433 Similar to Pax6 deficient mice, MafB deficient mice showed reductions both in insulin and glucagon expressing cells and in the ability of MafB and PDX-1 expressing cells to activate expression of these hormones.
2864 18199433 These results suggest that MafB may function as a downstream mediator of Pax6 in regulating the specification of insulin and glucagon expressing cells.
2865 18199433 Interestingly, the remaining insulin(+) cells in these knockouts preferentially express Hb9, suggesting the existence of an alternate pathway for the generation of insulin expressing cells, even in the absence of Pax6 and MafB function.
2866 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.

2894 18220583 Oxidative stress and/or activation of the JNK pathway suppress insulin gene expression, accompanied by reduction of PDX-1 DNA binding activity.
2895 18220583 The JNK pathway is also involved in the progression of insulin resistance; suppression of the JNK pathway in obese diabetic mice markedly improves insulin resistance and ameliorates glucose tolerance.
2896 18220583 The phosphorylation state of key molecules for insulin signaling is altered upon modification of the JNK pathway.
2897 18220583 Taken together, the JNK pathway plays a crucial role in progression of insulin resistance as well as beta-cell dysfunction found in diabetes and thus could be a potential therapeutic target for diabetes.

2910 18288891 Insulin resistance is characterized by impaired signaling through the insulin/insulin receptor/insulin receptor substrate/PI-3K/Akt pathway, leading to elevation of negatively regulated substrates such as glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (Gsk-3beta).
2911 18288891 In these studies, we designed experiments to determine the contribution of Gsk-3beta to regulation of beta-cell mass in two mouse models of insulin resistance.
2912 18288891 Crossing these mice with those having haploinsufficiency for Gsk-3beta (Gsk-3beta+/-) reduced insulin resistance by augmenting whole-body glucose disposal, and significantly reduced beta-cell mass.
2913 18288891 Preservation of beta-cell mass in Gsk-3beta+/- Irs2-/- mice was accompanied by suppressed p27(kip1) levels and increased Pdx1 levels.
2914 18288891 To separate peripheral versus beta-cell-specific effects of reduction of Gsk3beta activity on preservation of beta-cell mass, mice homozygous for a floxed Gsk-3beta allele (Gsk-3(F/F)) were then crossed with rat insulin promoter-Cre (RIP-Cre) mice to produce beta-cell-specific knockout of Gsk-3beta (betaGsk-3beta-/-).

2947 18450959 Here we examined whether ER stress-induced activation of activating transcription factor (ATF)-6 impairs insulin gene expression via up-regulation of the orphan nuclear receptor small heterodimer partner (SHP; NR0B2), which has been shown to play a role in beta-cell dysfunction.
2948 18450959 We examined whether ER stress decreases insulin gene expression, and this process is mediated by ATF6.
2949 18450959 A small interfering RNA that targeted SHP was used to determine whether the effect of ATF6 on insulin gene expression is mediated by SHP.
2950 18450959 ATF6 inhibited insulin promoter activity, whereas X-box binding protein-1 and ATF4 did not.
2951 18450959 Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of active form of ATF6 in INS-1 cells impaired insulin gene expression and secretion.
2952 18450959 ATF6 also down-regulated pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1 and RIPE3b1/MafA gene expression and repressed the cooperative action of pancreatic duodenal homeobox factor-1, RIPE3b1/MafA, and beta-cell E box transactivator 2 in stimulating insulin transcription.
2953 18450959 The ATF6-induced suppression of insulin gene expression was associated with up-regulation of SHP gene expression.
2954 18464933 The fetal IUGR state was characterized by loss of USF-1 binding at the proximal promoter of Pdx1, recruitment of the histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and the corepressor Sin3A, and deacetylation of histones H3 and H4.
2955 18464933 During the neonatal period, these epigenetic changes and the reduction in Pdx1 expression could be reversed by HDAC inhibition.

2960 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.

2967 18506375 The Chi-square test, multivariable logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, and the prevalence of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes mellitus, as well as a stepwise forward selection procedure revealed that the 2445G-->A (Ala54Thr) polymorphism (rs1799883) of FABP2, the -108/3G-->4G polymorphism of IPF1 (S82168), the A-->G (Thr94Ala) polymorphism (rs2241883) of FABP1, the G-->A (Asp2213Asn) polymorphism (rs529038) of ROS1, the -11377C-->G polymorphism (rs266729) of ADIPOQ, the 162A-->C polymorphism (rs4769055) of ALOX5AP, the -786T-->C polymorphism (rs2070744) of NOS3, and the 3279C-->T polymorphism (rs7291467) of LGALS2 were associated (P<0.05) with the prevalence of atherothrombotic cerebral infarction.
2968 18506375 Our results suggest that FABP2, IPF1, FABP1, ROS1, ADIPOQ, ALOX5AP, NOS3, and LGALS2 are susceptibility loci for atherothrombotic cerebral infarction among Japanese individuals with metabolic syndrome.
2969 18512226 We sequenced genes with a recognized role in monogenic forms of diabetes, including KCNJ11, ABCC8, GCK, IPF1, HNF1beta, NeuroD1 and TCF7L2, as well as a novel candidate gene, HNF6, known to be involved in hepatobiliary and pancreatic development, but did not identify mutations.
2970 18514140 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.
2971 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.

2980 18593820 The present study was undertaken to determine how tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) elicits the inhibition of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in rat insulinoma cells (INS)-1 beta-cells.
2981 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.
2982 18593820 The TNF-alpha treatment was thought to activate c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and NF-kappaB inflammatory signals, since TNF-alpha increased phospho-JNK and phospho-p38 and reduced I kappaB levels.
2983 18593820 Overexpression of MEKK3, a possible mediator from the TNF-alpha receptor to the JNK/p38 and NK-kappaB signaling cascade, increased the levels of phospho-JNK, phospho-p38, and NF-kappaB, and reduced the glucose-stimulated Ca(2)(+) influx and GSIS.
2984 18593820 The reduction of the Ca(2)(+) influx and GSIS in MEKK3-overexpressing INS-1 cells was also prevented by inhibitors of JNK, p38, and NF-kappaB.
2985 18593820 These data demonstrate that TNF-alpha inhibits GSIS by reducing the glucose-stimulated Ca(2)(+) influx, possibly through the activation of JNK and p38 MAPK and NF-kappaB inflammatory signals.

3139 18813850 When cultured in the presence of HGF and FGF-4 on Matrigel, rBM25/S3 cells expressed genes specific to pancreatic beta-cells as well as those specific to hepatocytes.
3140 18813850 These hepato-pancreatic intermediate progenitor cells, but not the original undifferentiated rBM25/S3 cells, were induced by the overexpression of PDX-1 to produce significant amounts of insulin in a manner responding to glucose concentration in medium.

3142 18850229 Extracts of Rehmanniae radix, Ginseng radix and Scutellariae radix improve glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and beta-cell proliferation through IRS2 induction.
3143 18850229 In this study, we investigated whether herbs used for treating diabetes in Chinese medicine-Galla rhois, Rehmanniae radix, Machilus bark, Ginseng radix, Polygonatum radix, and Scutellariae radix-improved IRS2 induction in rat islets, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and beta-cell survival.

3146 18940247 Concurrent with reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsim) and cellular ATP content, impaired mitochondrial function reduced GCK expression and resulted in decreased insulin secretion and beta-cell apoptosis.
3147 18940247 Specifically, lowered GCK expression led to decreased interactions between GCK and mitochondria, which increased Bax binding to mitochondria and cytochrome C release into cytoplasm.
3148 18940247 Moreover, examination of the GCK promoter in antimycin-treated cells demonstrated that the promoter region within -287 bases from transcription site is involved in the transcriptional repression of GCK by mitochondrial stress, whose region contains a putative binding site for pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1).
3149 18940247 Mitochondrial stress reduced PDX-1 expression, and increased ATF3 expression dependent on reactive oxygen species (ROS).
3150 18940247 Collectively, these data demonstrate that mitochondrial dysfunction by metabolic stress reduces GCK expression through PDX-1 downregulation via production of ROS, which then decreases the association of GCK with mitochondria, resulting in pancreatic beta-cell apoptosis and reduction of insulin secretion.

3289 19213833 The expression of GPR39 is regulated by hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha and HNF-4alpha, and in the present study, we addressed the importance of GPR39 for glucose homeostasis and pancreatic islets function.
3290 19213833 Gpr39(-/-) mice were studied in vivo, especially in respect of glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, and in vitro in respect of islet architecture, gene expression, and insulin secretion.
3291 19213833 Gpr39 was down-regulated on differentiation of the pluripotent pancreatic cell line AR42J cells toward the exocrine phenotype but was along with Pdx-1 strongly up-regulated on differentiation toward the endocrine phenotype.
3292 19213833 Gpr39(-/-) mice displayed normal insulin sensitivity but moderately impaired glucose tolerance both during oral and iv glucose tolerance tests, and Gpr39(-/-) mice had decreased plasma insulin response to oral glucose.
3293 19213833 Islet architecture was normal in the Gpr39 null mice, but expression of Pdx-1 and Hnf-1alpha was reduced.
3294 19213833 Isolated, perifused islets from Gpr39 null mice secreted less insulin in response to glucose stimulation than islets from wild-type littermates.

3301 19213841 Disruption of G protein-coupled receptor 39 impairs insulin secretion in vivo.
3302 19213841 We have recently shown that young GPR39(-/-) mice have normal body weight, food intake, and fasting glucose and insulin levels.
3303 19213841 Fifty-two-week-old GPR39(-/-) mice showed a trend toward decreased insulin levels after oral glucose challenge.
3304 19213841 When fed either a low-fat/high-sucrose or high-fat/high-sucrose diet, GPR39(-/-) mice had increased fed glucose levels and showed decreased serum insulin levels during an oral glucose tolerance test in the face of unchanged insulin tolerance.
3305 19213841 Pancreas morphology and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in isolated islets from wild-type and GPR39(-/-) mice were comparable, suggesting that GPR39 is not required for pancreas development or ex vivo insulin secretion.
3306 19213841 Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of GPR39 in clonal NIT-1 beta-cells revealed that GPR39 regulates the expression of insulin receptor substrate-2 and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 in a cell-autonomous manner; insulin receptor substrate-2 mRNA was also significantly decreased in the pancreas of GPR39(-/-) mice.
3307 19213841 Taken together, our data indicate that GPR39 is required for the increased insulin secretion in vivo under conditions of increased demand, i.e. on development of age-dependent and diet-induced insulin resistance.
3308 19237535 This improved islet function was at least partially attributed to significant upregulation of the islet genes Irs1, SERCA, Ins1/2, and Glut2 in treated animals.
3309 19237535 The restoration of the Ins1/2 and Glut2 genes corresponded to a two- to threefold increase in the euchromatin marker histone H3 dimethyl-Lys4 at their respective promoters and was coincident with increased nuclear occupancy of the islet methyltransferase Set7/9.
3310 19237535 Consistent with this possibility, incubation of thapsigargin-treated INS-1 beta cells with the PPAR-gamma agonist resulted in the reduction of endoplasmic reticulum stress and restoration of Pdx1 protein levels and Set7/9 nuclear occupancy.
3311 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.

3324 19264802 The Krüppel-like zinc finger protein Glis3 directly and indirectly activates insulin gene transcription.
3325 19264802 Our aim was to examine the role of Glis3 in beta cells, specifically with regard to regulation of insulin gene transcription.
3326 19264802 We demonstrate that insulin 2 (Ins2) mRNA expression in rat insulinoma 832/13 cells is markedly increased by wild-type Glis3 overexpression, but not by the NDH1 mutant.
3327 19264802 Moreover, Glis3 physically and functionally interacts with Pdx1, MafA and NeuroD1 to modulate Ins2 promoter activity.
3328 19264802 Glis3 also may indirectly affect insulin promoter activity through upregulation of MafA and downregulation of Nkx6-1.
3329 19264802 This study uncovers a role of Glis3 for regulation of insulin gene expression and expands our understanding of its role in the beta cell.
3330 19275670 The roles of the PDZ-containing proteins bridge-1 and PDZD2 in the regulation of insulin production and pancreatic beta-cell mass.
3331 19275670 In a screen for interactors that regulate transcription factor function in pancreatic beta cells, we isolated two PDZ-containing proteins Bridge-1 (PSMD9) and PDZD2, which contain one and six PDZ domains, respectively.
3332 19275670 Bridge-1 interacts with both E12 and PDX-1 to stimulate insulin promoter activity.
3333 19275670 Interestingly, PDZD2 is proteolytically processed by caspase-3 to generate a carboxy-terminal secreted protein (sPDZD2) containing two PDZ domains.
3334 19275670 We propose that the PDZ domain proteins Bridge-1 and PDZD2 likely transduce signals that regulate insulin production, proliferation, and survival of pancreatic beta cells.
3335 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.
3336 19379129 We identified a population of PaSCs that express the ABCG2+ transporter and have the capacity to transdifferentiate into insulin-producing cells.

3340 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.

3516 19805515 In this study, we report that the Krüppel-like zinc finger transcription factor Gli-similar 3 (Glis3) is induced during the secondary transition of pancreatic development, a stage of cell lineage specification and extensive patterning, and that Glis3(zf/zf) mutant mice develop neonatal diabetes, evidenced by hyperglycemia and hypoinsulinemia.
3517 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.
3518 19805515 The population of pancreatic progenitors appears not to be greatly affected in Glis3(zf/zf) mutant mice; however, the number of neurogenin 3 (Ngn3)-positive endocrine cell progenitors is significantly reduced.
3519 19805515 In addition, we provide evidence that Glis3 regulates insulin gene expression through two Glis-binding sites in its proximal promoter, indicating that Glis3 also regulates beta-cell function.

3560 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.
3561 19843526 Mechanistically, we find that KLF11 interacts with the coactivator p300 via its zinc finger domain in vivo to mediate Pdx-1 activation.
3562 19843526 Furthermore, because KLF11 like most MODY-associated transcription factors uses p300, these data further support a role for this coactivator as a critical chromatin link in forms of type 2 diabetes.

3575 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.
3576 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.
3577 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.

3584 19897925 The rise in hyperplasia was associated with elevated IRS2 and PDX-1 expression in the islets.
3585 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.
3586 19965940 Decreased IRS2 attenuated the phosphorylation of Akt and, subsequently, PDX-1 protein levels were lowered in olanzapine-treated rats.
3587 20020058 Importantly, the recovery efficiency of the p21-overexpressing mice from streptozotocin-induced diabetes was significantly higher than control mice, which is embodied by better physiological quality and earlier emergence of insulin expressing cells.
3588 20020058 Furthermore, in the islets of these streptozotocin-treated transgenic mice, we found a large population of proliferating cells which expressed pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1) but not markers of terminally differentiated cells.
3589 20020058 Transcription factors characteristic of early pancreatic development, such as Nkx2.2 and NeuroD1, and pancreatic progenitor markers, such as Ngn3 and c-Met, could also be detected in these islets.
3590 20038945 In this issue of Laboratory Investigation, Li et al propose the transcription factor Pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX-1) as a T1D autoantigen by demonstrating autoreactivity to this pancreas-specific protein in both the NOD mouse model and patients with T1D.
3591 20038945 Because of the known roles of PDX-1 in pancreatic development as well as beta cell maintenance and function, targeting of PDX-1 expressing cells may result in the elimination of not only beta cells but also the progenitor cells required for regeneration of insulin-producing cells.

3594 20079600 Conophylline increased the mRNA expression of PDX-1, neurogenin3, neuroD/Beta2, and insulin in ICC.
3595 20082465 Investigations included sequencing of GCK, ABCC8, IPF1, NEUROD1, PTF1A, HNF1B, INS, ISL1, NGN3, HHEX, G6PC2, TCF7L2, SOX4, FOXP3 (Patients 1 and 2), GATA4 and KCNJ11 genes (all three patients), but no mutations were found.
3596 20092027 Genetic analysis was negative for mutations of KCNJ11, 6q24, Glucokinase and IPF-1 genes.
3597 20096455 These have been well-characterised in the PR rat, where impaired insulin secretion is linked to epigenetic changes at the Pdx-1 promotor and reduced expression of this transcription factor.
3598 20101199 Histologic assessment was performed at PODs 3, 7, 14, 28, and 84 for the detection of von Willebrand factor (vWF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), insulin, cluster of differentiation-34, and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) protein.
3599 20156502 Activation of the adiponectin receptors has a clear role in improving insulin resistance although conflicting evidence exists for its effects on pancreatic beta-cells.
3600 20156502 This study investigates the effects of two agonist regions of adiponectin on insulin secretion, gene expression, cell viability and cell signalling in the rat beta-cell line BRIN-BD11, as well as investigating the expression levels of adiponectin receptors (ADRs) in these cells.
3601 20156502 Cells were treated with globular adiponectin and adiponectin (15-36) +/-leptin to investigate cell viability, expression of key beta-cell genes and ERK1/2 activation.
3602 20156502 Both globular adiponectin and adiponectin (15-36) caused significant ERK1/2 dependent increases in cell viability.
3603 20156502 Leptin co-incubation attenuated adiponectin (15-36) but not globular adiponectin induced cell viability.
3604 20156502 Globular adiponectin, but not adiponectin (15-36), caused a significant 450% increase in PDX-1 expression and a 45% decrease in LPL expression.
3605 20158571 MafA promotes the reprogramming of placenta-derived multipotent stem cells into pancreatic islets-like and insulin+ cells.
3606 20158571 MafA is a pancreatic transcriptional factor that controls β-cell-specific transcription of the insulin gene.
3607 20158571 In this study, we investigate the role of MafA in placenta-derived multipotent stem cells (PDMSCs) that constitutively expressed Oct-4 and Nanog.
3608 20158571 Our results showed that overexpression of MafA in PDMSCs significantly up-regulated the expression of pancreatic development-related genes (Sox17, Foxa2, Pdx1 and Ngn3).
3609 20158571 MafA increased the expression levels of the mRNAs of NKx2.2, Glut2, insulin, glucagons and somatostatin, and further facilitated the differentiation of PDMSCs into insulin(+) cells.
3610 20158571 The glucose-stimulated responses to insulin and c-peptide production in MafA-overexpressing PDMSCs were significantly higher than in PDMSCs with vector control.
3611 20158571 Importantly, the expression of MafA in PDMSCs xenotransplanted into immunocompromised mice improved the restoration of blood insulin levels to control values and greatly prolonged the survival of graft cells in immunocompromised mice with STZ-induced diabetes.
3612 20158571 In summary, these data suggest that MafA plays a novel role in the reprogramming of stem cells into pancreatic β-progenitors, promotes the islet-like characteristics of PDMSCs, as well as functionally enhances insulin production to restore the regulation of blood glucose levels in transplanted grafts.
3613 20217517 Treatment with various growth factors such as GLP-1, BTC, HGF, and EGF and forced expression of beta-cell transcription factors such as Pdx-1, NeuroD, and MafA resulted in the regeneration of beta-cells in vivo.

3619 20306305 Taken together, these findings demonstrated that the effective role of Pdx1 gene in inducing insulin-producing cells, which may shuttle to the nucleoplasm of MSCs under high glucose, then initiate the expression of native transcription factors Ngn3 and recruit other proteins, resulting in transactivation of the relevant genes including insulin and generation of β cell phenotype.

3697 20586612 Knockouts of SOD1 and GPX1 exert different impacts on murine islet function and pancreatic integrity.
3698 20586612 Using single knockout of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1(-/-)) or Se-glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPX1(-/-)) and their double-knockout (DKO) mouse models, we determined if elevating endogenously-derived superoxide and hydroperoxide exerted distinct impacts and mechanisms on body glucose homeostasis.
3699 20586612 Whereas the three knockout groups displayed decreased plasma insulin concentrations and islet β-cells mass, only SOD1(-/-) showed decreased body weight, increased blood glucose, and blocked glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
3700 20586612 Null of SOD1 and GPX1 elevated respective islet superoxide and hydroperoxide production, and upregulated p53 phosphorylation.
3701 20586612 Knockout of SOD1 downregulated the foxhead box A2/pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 pathway in a superoxide-dependent fashion at epigenetic, mRNA, and protein levels in islets, but improved insulin signaling in liver and muscle.
3702 20586612 The SOD1(-/-) mice showed more apparent pancreatitis than the GPX1(-/-) mice that were more susceptible to the cerulein-induced amylase increase.
3703 20586612 Knockout of SOD1 impaired islet function, pancreas integrity, and body glucose homeostasis more than that of GPX1.

3721 20692412 Compared with untreated cells the differentiation of human nonendocrine pancreatic cells into insulin-producing elements was increased after treatment with IGF-1, EGF, and Exendin-4, growth factors known to be activators of the PI3K pathway (12.2 +/- 3.2% vs 9.1 +/- 3.2%).
3722 20692412 Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and Exendin-4 significantly increased the expression of the transcription factor neurogenin-3, whereas the expressions of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX-1), neurogenic differentiation 1 (NeuroD) were increased only among samples treated with ZnCl2 and not significantly affected by treatment with the tested growth factors.
3723 20692412 Successful differentiation of IGF-1, EGF-, and Exendin-4-treated cells into functional beta cells was confirmed by C-peptide secretion in response to 5 versus 20 mmol glucose stimulation (0.24 vs 0.91 pmol C-peptide/microg DNA).

3839 21108535 NKX6.1 promotes PDX-1-induced liver to pancreatic β-cells reprogramming.
3840 21108535 NKX6.1 is a transcription factor uniquely expressed in β-cells of the adult pancreas, its potential role in reprogramming liver cells to pancreatic lineages has never been analyzed.
3841 21108535 Our results suggest that NKX6.1 activates immature pancreatic markers such as NGN-3 and ISL-1 but not pancreatic hormones gene expression in human liver cells.
3842 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.
3843 21108535 This may suggest a potential role for NKX6.1 in promoting PDX-1 reprogrammed cells maturation along the β-cell-like lineage.
3844 21108535 By contrast, NKX6.1 repressed PDX-1 induced proglucagon gene expression.
3845 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 β-cell line 832/13 within 15 min by reducing glucose transporter type 2 (Glut2) and glucokinase (GK) activities. 9cRA also reduces Pdx-1 and HNF4α mRNA expression, ∼8- and 80-fold, respectively: defects in Pdx-1 or HNF4α cause maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY4 and 1, respectively), as does a defective GK gene (MODY2).
3846 21149438 The presence of the neural stem cell marker nestin, duct cell marker cytokeratin 19, and endocrine cell markers C-peptide and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1, was also observed.
3847 21152387 Differentiated cells displayed increased Sox17 and Foxa2 expression consistent with definitive endoderm production.
3848 21152387 Various assays revealed that the cell clusters generated by this protocol express markers of the pancreatic lineage including insulin I, insulin II, C-peptide, PDX-1, carboxypeptidase E, pan-cytokeratin, amylase, glucagon, PAX6, Ngn3 and Nkx6.1.
3849 21177833 Integrin {alpha}3, but not {beta}1, regulates islet cell survival and function via PI3K/Akt signaling pathways.
3850 21177833 Previously, we have shown that human fetal islet and INS-1 cells highly express α3β1-integrin and that collagens I and IV significantly enhance their survival and function; in addition, blocking β1 function in the fetal islet cells decreased adhesion on collagen I and increased apoptosis.
3851 21177833 Perturbing α3 function in human islet or INS-1 cells resulted in significant decreases in cell function (adhesion, spreading, proliferation and Pdx1 and insulin expression/secretion), primarily on collagen IV.
3852 21177833 A significant decrease in focal adhesion kinase and ERK1/2 phosphorylation and increased caspase3 cleavage were observed on both collagens.
3853 21177833 Interestingly, only α3 blockade reduced expression of phospho-Akt and members of its downstream signaling cascades (glycogen synthase kinase β and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis), demonstrating a specific effect of α3 on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway.
3854 21197448 This was a prospective open-labeled clinical trial to test efficacy and safety of IS-AD-MSC+CBM co-transplantation to treat IDDM, approved by the institutional review board after informed consent in 11 (males : females: 7 : 4) patients with 1-24-year disease duration, in age group: 13-43 years, on mean values of exogenous insulin requirement of 1.14 units/kg BW/day, glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb1Ac): 8.47%, and c-peptide levels: 0.1 ng/mL.
3855 21197448 Intraportal infusion of xenogeneic-free IS-AD-MSC from living donors, subjected to defined culture conditions and phenotypically differentiated to insulin-secreting cells, with mean quantum: 1.5 mL, expressing Pax-6, Isl-1, and pdx-1, cell counts: 2.1 × 10(3)/μL, CD45(-)/90(+)/73(+):40/30.1%, C-Peptide level:1.8 ng/mL, and insulin level: 339.3  IU/mL with CBM mean quantum: 96.3 mL and cell counts: 28.1 × 10(3)/μL, CD45(-)/34(+):0.62%, was carried out.
3856 21209957 NADPH oxidase 2-derived reactive oxygen species mediate FFAs-induced dysfunction and apoptosis of β-cells via JNK, p38 MAPK and p53 pathways.
3857 21209957 Our results show that palmitate and oleate (0.5 mmol/L, 48 h) induced JNK activation and AKT inhibition which resulted in decreased phosphorylation of FOXO1 following nuclear localization and the nucleocytoplasmic translocation of PDX-1, leading to the reducing of insulin and ultimately dysfunction of pancreatic NIT-1 cells.
3858 21251764 Milk signalling down-regulates the key transcription factor FoxO1 leading to up-regulation of insulin promoter factor-1 which stimulates β-cell proliferation, insulin secretion as well as coexpression of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP).
3859 21285317 Sexually dimorphic diet-induced insulin resistance in obese tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2)-deficient mice.
3860 21285317 The effects of diet on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, as well as pancreatic β-cell and adipocyte physiology, were assessed.
3861 21285317 Chow-fed TIMP-2 KO mice of both sexes became obese but maintained relatively normal glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity.
3862 21285317 However, HFD-fed male, but not female, TIMP-2 KO mice developed insulin resistance with reduced glucose transporter 2 and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 levels, despite increased β-cell mass and hyperplasia.
3863 21285317 Strikingly, MMP-14 expression increased to a greater extent in TIMP-2 KO males and was associated with decreased adipocyte collagen.
3864 21285317 Taken together, these findings demonstrate a role for TIMP-2 in maintaining extracellular matrix integrity necessary for normal β-cell and adipocyte physiology and that loss of extracellular matrix integrity may underlie diabetic and obesogenic phenotypes.

4007 21814221 We genotyped 91 polymorphisms in 19 genes (ABCC8, HNF1A, HNF1B, HNF4A, INS, INSM1, ISL1, KCNJ11, MAFA, MNX1, NEUROD1, NEUROG3, NKX2.2, NKX6.1, PAX4, PAX6, PDX1, USF1 and WFS1) in 2025 unrelated North Indians of Indo-European ethnicity comprising of 1019 diabetic and 1006 non-diabetic subjects.

4079 21855631 Varying the combinations of growth factors, we found that treatment of hESCs with bFGF, Activin A and BMP4 (FAB) together for 3-4days resulted in strong induction of primitive-streak and definitive endoderm-associated genes, including MIXL1, GSC, SOX17 and FOXA2.

4109 21878900 PAX4, PDX1, GLUT2, and insulin, were all increased in differentiated cells compared to controls.
4110 21898210 RT-PCR was performed on a range of mRNAs, including Pdx1, Npy, Egr1, Pld1, Chgb, InsI, InsII, and Actb in biological triplicate analyses.Reproducible amplification of these mRNAs from MIN6, MIN6 B1, and Vero-PPI cells and their CM suggests that beta cells transcribe and release these mRNAs into their environment. mRNAs secreted from insulin-producing cells into their extracellular environment may have potential as extracellular biomarkers for assessing beta cell mass and function.

4112 21915820 Here, we report an efficient approach to induce human adipose-derived stromal cells (hADSCs) to differentiate into insulin-producing cells, with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). hADSCs were successfully isolated from the adipose tissue, with adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation potency.
4113 21915820 Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis showed the expression of the pancreas-related genes in the differentiated cells, such as pdx-1, ngn3, insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, glucokinase n and glut2.
4114 21915820 Immunocytochemical analysis showed that the induced cells co-expressed insulin, C-peptide and PDX-1.
4115 21915820 In addition, flow cytometry analysis and ELISA showed that, in the presence of GLP-1, the percentage of insulin-producing cells was increased from 5.9% to 28.0% and the release of insulin increased from 9.53±0.7 pmol/106 cells to 15.86±1.3 pmol/106 cells.

4211 22064706 Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore MIF expression in vivo during development of obesity and insulin resistance in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed C57BL/6 mice and whether MIF inhibition could affect β-cell apoptosis and dysfunction induced by palmitic acid (PA) in vitro.

4231 22215655 We previously reported that forkhead box O1 (FoxO1) inhibits β-cell growth through a Pdx1-mediated mechanism.

4234 22215655 Electron microscope analysis revealed fewer insulin granules in FoxO1 knockout db/db mice.
4235 22215655 We conclude that FoxO1 functions as a double-edged sword in the pancreas; FoxO1 essentially inhibits β-cell neogenesis from pancreatic duct cells but is required for the maintenance of insulin secretion under metabolic stress.

4256 22308370 Glucose activates free fatty acid receptor 1 gene transcription via phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-dependent O-GlcNAcylation of pancreas-duodenum homeobox-1.
4257 22308370 The G protein-coupled free fatty acid receptor-1 (FFA1/GPR40) plays a major role in the regulation of insulin secretion by fatty acids.
4258 22308370 GPR40 is considered a potential therapeutic target to enhance insulin secretion in type 2 diabetes; however, its mode of regulation is essentially unknown.
4259 22308370 We observed that glucose stimulates GPR40 gene transcription in pancreatic β-cells via increased binding of pancreas-duodenum homeobox-1 (Pdx-1) to the A-box in the HR2 region of the GPR40 promoter.
4260 22308370 Mutation of the Pdx-1 binding site within the HR2 abolishes glucose activation of GPR40 promoter activity.
4261 22308370 The stimulation of GPR40 expression and Pdx-1 binding to the HR2 in response to glucose are mimicked by N-acetyl glucosamine, an intermediate of the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway, and involve PI3K-dependent O-GlcNAcylation of Pdx-1 in the nucleus.
4262 22308370 We demonstrate that O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) interacts with the product of the PI3K reaction, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP(3)), in the nucleus.
4263 22308370 This interaction enables OGT to catalyze O-GlcNAcylation of nuclear proteins, including Pdx-1.

4301 22310720 Pancreatic specific genes were turned on, such as transcription factors (Pdx-1, Ngn3 and Nkx6.1), genes related to endocrine function (Glut-2 and PC2) or β cell function (Kir6.2, SUR1).
4302 22383081 Although the role of transcription factors (Pdx-1, MafA, NeuroD) on β-cell functions is understood, alterations in internal milieu of pancreatic tissue that affects β-cell functions in CP has not been elucidated.
4303 22384192 TG mice had impaired glucose tolerance and some of them indeed developed diabetes due to the reduction of β cell mass, which is associated with decreased Pdx1 and MafA in β cells.
4304 22393165 Further studies on the expression of cyclin D1, cyclin D2 and Cdk4 demonstrated that these genes were significantly up-regulated in the ABL-treated mice.
4305 22393165 Moreover, the expression of PDX-1 (pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1), Ngn3 (neurogenin 3), insulin, GLUT-1 (glucose transporter 1) and glucokinase was also increased in the ABL-treated mice.
4306 22393382 Interestingly, they maintained expression of β-cell specific markers, such as PDX1, NKX6.1, GLUT2 and insulin.
4307 22393382 Gene expression analysis showed that β-TC3R cells were characterized by downregulation of IL-1β and IFN-γ receptors and upregulation of SOCS3, the classical negative regulator of cytokines signaling.
4308 22393382 Among them, SUMO4, a negative feedback regulator in NF-kB and JAK/STAT signaling pathways, resulted hyper-expressed.
4309 22393382 Silencing of SUMO4 was able to restore sensitivity to cytokine-induced cell death in β-TC3R cells, suggesting it may play a key role in acquired cytokine resistance by blocking JAK/STAT and NF-kB lethal signaling.In conclusion, our study represents the first extensive proteomic characterization of a murine cytokine-resistant β-cell line, which might represent a useful tool for studying the mechanisms involved in resistance to cytokine-mediated β-cell death.

4442 22652787 Hepatic oval cells can be redirected to the beta-cell linage by an appropriate combination of high extracellular glucose, specific extracellular matrix proteins (laminin and fibronectin), cytokines (activin A), and the expression of several differentiation-related transcription factors (Pdx-1, Ngn-3, MafA).
4443 22669248 Ablation of ghrelin receptor in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice has paradoxical effects on glucose homeostasis when compared with ablation of ghrelin in ob/ob mice.
4444 22669248 The orexigenic hormone ghrelin is important in diabetes because it has an inhibitory effect on insulin secretion.
4445 22669248 Ghrelin ablation in leptin-deficient ob/ob (Ghrelin(-/-):ob/ob) mice increases insulin secretion and improves hyperglycemia.
4446 22669248 The physiologically relevant ghrelin receptor is the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R), and GHS-R antagonists are thought to be an effective strategy for treating diabetes.
4447 22669248 However, since some of ghrelin's effects are independent of GHS-R, we have utilized genetic approaches to determine whether ghrelin's effect on insulin secretion is mediated through GHS-R and whether GHS-R antagonism indeed inhibits insulin secretion.
4448 22669248 Ghsr ablation did not rescue the hyperphagia, obesity, or insulin resistance of ob/ob mice.
4449 22669248 Surprisingly, Ghsr ablation worsened the hyperglycemia, decreased insulin, and impaired glucose tolerance.
4450 22669248 Consistently, Ghsr ablation in ob/ob mice upregulated negative β-cell regulators (such as UCP-2, SREBP-1c, ChREBP, and MIF-1) and downregulated positive β-cell regulators (such as HIF-1α, FGF-21, and PDX-1) in whole pancreas; this suggests that Ghsr ablation impairs pancreatic β-cell function in leptin deficiency.
4451 22669248 In summary, because Ghsr ablation in leptin deficiency impairs insulin secretion and worsens hyperglycemia, this suggests that GHS-R antagonists may actually aggravate diabetes under certain conditions.
4452 22669248 The paradoxical effects of ghrelin ablation and Ghsr ablation in ob/ob mice highlight the complexity of the ghrelin-signaling pathway.

4485 22819839 Geniposide could prevent oxidative stress-induced neuron apoptosis, and improved glucose stimulated insulin secretion by activating glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) in INS-1 cells.
4486 22819839 Moreover, geniposide also improved the impairment of GLP-1R signaling through enhancing the phosphorylation of Akt and Foxo1, and increased the expression of PDX-1 in palmitate-treated INS-1 cells.
4487 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.
4488 22833839 However, these transplanted differentiated cells became tumorigenic in diabetic immunocompromised mice and their spontaneous transformation was confirmed by a marked increase in growth rate and inactivation of tumor suppressor genes (P21 and P16) by promoter hypermethylation.
4489 22841397 Insulin secretion increased from the islets of biotin-supplemented mice, together with the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of several transcription factors regulating insulin expression and secretion, including forkhead box A2, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α.
4490 22841397 The mRNA abundance of glucokinase, Cacna1d, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and insulin also increased.
4491 22902430 We tested the effects of two types of three-dimensional scaffolds, collagen matrix (CM) and fibroblast-populated collagen matrix (FPCM), on amyloid formation, viability, and function of isolated islets.
4492 22902430 IL-1β and Fas levels were also reduced in scaffold-embedded islets.
4493 22902430 Moreover, culture in CM and FPCM (but not 2D) preserved insulin, GLUT-2, and PDX-1 mRNA expression.
4494 22902430 FPCM-embedded islets had significantly higher insulin response and lower amyloid formation than CM-embedded islets.
4495 22915381 Moreover, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) data showed increased expression of pancreatic cell markers, including insulin, Pdx1, pan polypeptide and neurogenin-3, when these cells formed pancreatic clusters in the presence of activin A, exendin-4 and retinoic acid.
4496 22946080 Moreover, OP, NP, or BPA (25 μg/l) impaired mitochondrial function in β-cells and induced remarkable swelling of mitochondria with loss of distinct cristae structure within the membrane, which was accompanied by disruption of mRNA expression of genes playing a key role in β-cell function (Glut2 (Slc2a2), Gck, Pdx1, Hnf1α, Rab27a, and Snap25), and mitochondrial function (Ucp2 and Ogdh).

4514 23012647 Deletion of β-Catenin in Pdx1 pancreatic progenitors leads to a decreased β-cell mass and impaired glucose tolerance.
4515 23012647 Surprisingly, loss of β-catenin made these mice resistant to high fat diet because of their increased energy expenditure and insulin sensitivity due to hyperactivity.
4516 23022408 We observed that AK (10mg/kg bw) exerted peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) agonist activity, thereby enhancing insulin sensitivity (as indicated by hepatic GLUT2 translocation, PTP1B suppression, and glucose uptake) by downregulating blood glucose and upregulating pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 and Maf-A expression and increasing insulin production in MG-induced rats.
4517 23022408 However, these effects were abolished by the administration of GW9662 (PPARγ antagonist), but the expression of hepatic heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and glutamate-cysteine ligase (GCL) was not suppressed in MG-induced rats.
4518 23022408 AK did not affect hepatic Nrf2 mRNA or protein expression but significantly increased Nrf2 phosphorylation (serine 40), which was accompanied by increased transcriptional activation of hepatic HO-1 and GCL.
4519 23022408 We also found that AK treatment reduced the production of inflammatory factors, such as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β.
4520 23022408 Taken together, the results of our mechanistic study of MG-induced rats suggest that the protective effects of AK against diabetes are mediated by the upregulation of the signaling pathway of Nrf2, which enhances antioxidant activity and serves as a PPARγ agonist to enhance insulin sensitivity.
4521 23077629 We previously delivered adenovirus vector (AdV) into exocrine cells of the pancreas by intra-common bile ductal (ICBD) injection, and found that AdV expressing Pdx1, a pancreas-specific transcription factor, causes TC formation and islet neogenesis.

4526 23147208 Thyroid hormone (TH) activates PI3K and Akt, leading to glucose uptake in rat skeletal muscle cells and proliferation of insulinoma cells, respectively.
4527 23147208 However, TH actions on pancreatic beta cells have been little explored, which lead us to evaluate the TH eff ects on proinsulin gene expression, and the involvement of PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway, and a transcriptional factor for insulin (PDX-1).

4578 23247113 Previously, it was found that during pregnancy, heterozygous prolactin receptor-null (Prlr(+/-)) mice had lower number of β-cells, lower serum insulin and higher blood glucose levels than wild-type (Prlr(+/+)) mice.
4579 23247113 Pathways that are known to regulate β-cell proliferation during pregnancy include insulin receptor substrate-2, Akt, menin, the serotonin synthetic enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase-1, Forkhead box M1 and Forkhead box D3.
4580 23247113 It was found that the pregnancy-induced increases in insulin receptor substrate-2 and Akt expression in the islets were attenuated in the Prlr(+/+(+/-)) mice in comparison to the Prlr(+/+(+/+)) mice.
4581 23247113 The expression of Forkhead box D3, which plays a permissive role for β-cell proliferation during pregnancy, was also lower in the Prlr(+/+(+/-)) mice.
4582 23247113 In contrast, the pregnancy-induced increases in phospho-Jak2, tryptophan hydroxylase-1 and FoxM1, as well as the pregnancy-associated reduction in menin expression, were comparable between the two groups.
4583 23247113 There was also no difference in expression levels of genes that regulate insulin synthesis and secretion (i.e. glucose transporter 2, glucokinase and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1) between these two groups.
4584 23247113 Taken together, these results suggest that the in utero environment of the Prlr(+/-) mother confers long-term changes in the pancreatic islets of her offspring such that when the offspring themselves became pregnant, they cannot adapt to the increased insulin demands of their own pregnancy.
4585 23271274 Furthermore, RT-PCR results confirmed the expression of insulin, PDX1, Ngn3, PAX4, and GLUT2 in differentiated cells.
4586 23271432 The results reveal that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from bone marrow and subcutaneous adipose tissue can differentiate into pancreatic islet-like clusters, as evidenced by their islet-like morphology, positive dithizone staining and expression of genes such as Nestin, PDX1, Isl 1, Ngn 3, Pax 4 and Insulin.
4587 23306211 RT-PCR for endodermal and pancreatic lineage-specific markers was performed on AFS cells after adenovirally transduced expression of PDX1, NGN3 and MAFA.
4588 23306211 Expression of MAFA was sufficient to induce insulin mRNA expression in nhpAFS cell lines, whereas a combination of MAFA, PDX1 and NGN3 further induced insulin expression, and also induced the expression of other important endocrine cell genes such as glucagon, NEUROD1, NKX2.2, ISL1 and PCSK2.
4589 23306211 The expression of pancreatic genes such as NEUROD1, glucagon and insulin progressively decreased with the decline of adenovirally expressed PDX1, NGN3 and MAFA.
4590 23306211 RT-PCR for endodermal and pancreatic lineage-specific markers was performed on AFS cells after adenovirally transduced expression of PDX1, NGN3 and MAFA.

4596 23313787 Expression profiles of genes involved in metabolic and signaling functions of pancreatic cells (Ins, Glut1/2/3, Pdx1, Reg1α) were similar between fresh cells and those cryopreserved with the plant protein formulation.
4597 23339089 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.
4598 23349497 In vivo JNK activation in pancreatic β-cells leads to glucose intolerance caused by insulin resistance in pancreas.
4599 23349497 It is well established that exacerbated Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) activity is involved in promoting insulin resistance in peripheral insulin-target tissues; however, this involvement is less documented in pancreatic β-cells.
4600 23349497 At the molecular level, JNK activation in β-cells inhibited insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling, and transcription of insulin-target genes.
4601 23349497 In conclusion, the mere activation of JNK suffices to induce insulin resistance in pancreatic β-cells by inhibition of insulin signaling in these cells, but it is not sufficient to elicit β-cell death.
4602 23378917 An essential step in this protocol was the generation of pancreatic precursor cell that express Pdx1 based on induction by a combination of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, trichostatin A, retinoic acid, and a mix of insulin, transferrin and selenite.
4603 23382448 Dicer1-deficient β-cells lost insulin expression while maintaining the expression of β-cell transcription factors such as Pdx1 and Nkx6.1 early in the postnatal period.
4604 23434589 Indeed, we show that treatment of cultured pancreatic islets with a histone methyltransferase inhibitor leads to colocalization of both glucagon and insulin and glucagon and insulin promoter factor 1 (PDX1) in human islets and colocalization of both glucagon and insulin in mouse islets.
4605 23449893 The cultured infant islets expressed pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 and several (Glut1, Cav1.3, Kir6.2) but not all (syntaxin 1A and synaptosomal-associated protein 25) markers of functional islets, suggesting a loss of secretory phenotype in culture.
4606 23449893 After a 24- to 28-day expansion and maturation protocol, we found preservation of endocrine markers and hormone expression, an increased proportion of insulin-positive cells, elevated expression of syntaxin 1A and synaptosomal-associated protein 25, and restoration of exocytosis to levels comparable with that in adult β-cells.
4607 23463236 Persistent effects of an early suboptimal environment, known to increase risk of type 2 diabetes in later life, can alter the epigenetic control of transcriptional master regulators, such as Hnf4a and Pdx1.
4608 23468018 We found that PDX1 positive pancreatic progenitors proliferated and gained NKX6.1 expression in the PM, whereas they failed to express NKX6.1 if BMP signaling was inhibited with Noggin.
4609 23468018 On the contrary, addition of BMP4 to the PM promoted the early derivation of PDX1 and NKX6.1 coexpressing pancreatic progenitors.
4610 23468018 Our findings are in line with mouse pancreas development, and indicate that BMP4 signaling is required for the derivation and maintenance of hESC-derived PDX1+NKX6.1+ pancreatic progenitors.

4618 23533474 Quercetin Preserves β -Cell Mass and Function in Fructose-Induced Hyperinsulinemia through Modulating Pancreatic Akt/FoxO1 Activation.
4619 23533474 Quercetin was confirmed to reduce serum insulin and leptin levels and blockade islet hyperplasia in fructose-fed rats.
4620 23533474 It also prevented fructose-induced β -cell proliferation and insulin hypersecretion in INS-1 β -cells.
4621 23533474 Quercetin downregulated Akt and FoxO1 phosphorylation in fructose-fed rat islets and increased the nuclear FoxO1 levels in fructose-treated INS-1 β -cells.
4622 23533474 The elevated Akt phosphorylation in fructose-treated INS-1 β -cells was also restored by quercetin.
4623 23533474 Additionally, quercetin suppressed the expression of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1) and insulin gene (Ins1 and Ins2) in vivo and in vitro.
4624 23533474 In fructose-treated INS-1 β -cells, quercetin elevated the reduced janus kinase 2/signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (Jak2/Stat3) phosphorylation and suppressed the increased suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (Socs3) expression.
4625 23533474 These results demonstrate that quercetin protects β -cell mass and function under high-fructose induction through improving leptin signaling and preserving pancreatic Akt/FoxO1 activation.
4626 23562832 Adenoviral-mediated expression of NEUROG3, Pdx1, and MafA in GBCs resulted in robust induction of pancreatic endocrine genes, including Ins1, Ins2, Neurod1, Nkx2-2 and Isl1.
4627 23562832 Furthermore, expression of GBC-specific genes was repressed, including Sox17 and Hes1.

4659 23606308 Upon exposure to islet differentiation serum-free cocktail a significant upregulation of pancreatic markers like Nkx2.2, Nkx6.1, Pdx1, insulin, and somatostatin was seen.

4670 23650507 However, isolated human islets displayed insulin signaling pathway resistance, due in part to chronic activation of mTOR/S6K1 signaling that results in negative feedback of the insulin signaling pathway and a loss of Akt phosphorylation and insulin content.
4671 23650507 This was associated with the restoration of IGF-1-induced phosphorylation of Akt, GSK-3, and increased protein expression of Pdx1.
4672 23650507 Furthermore, MSDC-0160 in combination with IGF-1 and 8 mM glucose increased β-cell specific gene expression of insulin, pdx1, nkx6.1, and nkx2.2, and maintained insulin content without altering glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

4788 23825225 Previously, exchange protein directly activated by cAMP 2 (Epac2) and PKA were known to play a role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) by pancreatic β cells.
4789 23825225 Interestingly, Epac1(-/-) mice also showed metabolic defects, including increased respiratory exchange ratio (RER) and plasma triglyceride (TG), and more severe diet-induced obesity with insulin resistance, which may contributed to β-cell dysfunction.
4790 23825225 However, islets differentiated from Epac1(-/-) ES cells showed insulin secretion defect, reduced Glut2 and PDX-1 expression, and abolished GLP-1-stimulated PCNA induction, suggesting a role of Epac1 in β-cell function.
4791 23828045 At 1 week after multiple low-dose STZ administrations, pancreatic β-cells showed impaired insulin expression, while maintaining expression of nuclear Nkx6.1.
4792 23828045 This was accompanied by significant upregulation of p53-responsive genes in islets, including a mediator of cell cycle arrest, p21 (also known as Waf1 and Cip1).
4793 23828045 STZ treatment also suppressed expression of a wide range of genes linked with key β-cell functions or diabetes development, such as G6pc2, Slc2a2 (Glut2), Slc30a8, Neurod1, Ucn3, Gad1, Isl1, Foxa2, Vdr, Pdx1, Fkbp1b and Abcc8, suggesting global β-cell defects in STZ-treated islets.
4794 23828045 When a pancreas-targeted adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector was employed for long-term Glp-1 gene delivery, pancreatic GLP-1 expression protected mice from STZ-induced diabetes through preservation of the β-cell mass.
4795 23828045 Upon pancreatic GLP-1 expression, upregulation of Cxcl13 and Nptx2 was observed in STZ-damaged islets, but not in untreated normal islets.
4796 23828045 Given the pro-β-cell-survival effects of Cxcl12 (Sdf-1) in inducing GLP-1 production in α-cells, pancreatic GLP-1-mediated Cxcl13 induction might also play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of β-cells in damaged islets.

4851 23863625 Hydrogen peroxide treatment of β cell lines induced cytoplasmic translocation of MAFA and NKX6.1.
4852 23863625 MAFA levels were reduced, followed by a reduction in NKX6.1 upon development of hyperglycemia in db/db mice, a T2DM model.
4853 23863625 Transgenic expression of the glutathione peroxidase-1 antioxidant enzyme (GPX1) in db/db islet β cells restored nuclear MAFA, nuclear NKX6.1, and β cell function in vivo.
4854 23863625 Notably, the selective decrease in MAFA, NKX6.1, and PDX1 expression was found in human T2DM islets.
4855 23863625 MAFB, a MAFA-related transcription factor expressed in human β cells, was also severely compromised.
4856 23863625 We propose that MAFA, MAFB, NKX6.1, and PDX1 activity provides a gauge of islet β cell function, with loss of MAFA (and/or MAFB) representing an early indicator of β cell inactivity and the subsequent deficit of more impactful NKX6.1 (and/or PDX1) resulting in overt dysfunction associated with T2DM.

4863 23884882 HFS diets also resulted in decreased expression of essential β-cell transcription factors forkhead box O1 (FOXO1), NKX6-1, NKX2-2, and PDX1, which did not occur with resveratrol supplementation.
4864 23897760 Enrichment of human embryonic stem cell-derived NKX6.1-expressing pancreatic progenitor cells accelerates the maturation of insulin-secreting cells in vivo.
4865 23897760 We previously described a differentiation protocol to generate pancreatic progenitor cells from hESCs, composed of mainly pancreatic endoderm (PDX1/NKX6.1-positive), endocrine precursors (NKX2.2/synaptophysin-positive, hormone/NKX6.1-negative), and polyhormonal cells (insulin/glucagon-positive, NKX6.1-negative).
4866 23897760 However, the relative contributions of NKX6.1-negative versus NKX6.1-positive cell fractions to the maturation of functional β-cells remained unclear.
4867 23897760 Prior to transplant, both populations contained a high proportion of PDX1-expressing cells (~85%-90%) but were distinguished by their relatively high (~80%) or low (~25%) expression of NKX6.1.
4868 23897760 Fasting human C-peptide levels were similar between groups throughout the study, but only NKX6.1-high grafts displayed robust meal-, glucose- and arginine-responsive insulin secretion as early as 3 months post-transplant.
4869 23897760 Theracyte devices from both groups contained almost exclusively pancreatic endocrine tissue, but NKX6.1-high grafts contained a greater proportion of insulin-positive and somatostatin-positive cells, whereas NKX6.1-low grafts contained mainly glucagon-expressing cells.
4870 23897760 Insulin-positive cells in NKX6.1-high, but not NKX6.1-low grafts expressed nuclear MAFA.

4878 23897763 In addition, the dynamic expression profile of endodermal marker Foxa2 and endocrine-specific genes, including HNF4α, Pdx1, Pax6, Nkx6.1, Glut2 and insulin, were detected by quantitative real-time PCR.
4879 23927931 The Krüppel-like protein Gli-similar 3 (Glis3) functions as a key regulator of insulin transcription.
4880 23927931 Recently, the Krüppel-like transcription factor, Gli-similar 3 (Glis3), was shown to bind the insulin (INS) promoter and positively influence insulin transcription.
4881 23927931 In this report, we examined in detail the synergistic activation of insulin transcription by Glis3 with coregulators, CREB-binding protein (CBP)/p300, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (Pdx1), neuronal differentiation 1 (NeuroD1), and v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A (MafA).
4882 23927931 Our data show that Glis3 expression, the binding of Glis3 to GlisBS, and its recruitment of CBP are required for optimal activation of the insulin promoter in pancreatic β-cells not only by Glis3, but also by Pdx1, MafA, and NeuroD1.
4883 23927931 Mutations in the GlisBS or small interfering RNA-directed knockdown of GLIS3 diminished insulin promoter activation by Pdx1, NeuroD1, and MafA, and neither Pdx1 nor MafA was able to stably associate with the insulin promoter when the GlisBS were mutated.
4884 23927931 In addition, a GlisBS mutation in the INS promoter implicated in the development of neonatal diabetes similarly abated activation by Pdx1, NeuroD1, and MafA that could be reversed by increased expression of exogenous Glis3.
4885 23927931 We therefore propose that recruitment of CBP/p300 by Glis3 provides a scaffold for the formation of a larger transcriptional regulatory complex that stabilizes the binding of Pdx1, NeuroD1, and MafA complexes to their respective binding sites within the insulin promoter.
4886 23927931 Taken together, these results indicate that Glis3 plays a pivotal role in the transcriptional regulation of insulin and may serve as an important therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes.
