125 1468587 To obtain information on the regulation of glucose transport across the basolateral membrane (BLM) of intestinal epithelial cells, we measured the number of [3H]cytochalasin B binding sites and the level of liver-type glucose transporter (GLUT2) protein in the BLM in the jejunum of rats (i) with diabetes (ii) given a high-carbohydrate diet or (iii) with experimental hyperglycemia (12 h infusion of a high-glucose solution).
126 1468587 Western blot analysis showed that the amount of GLUT2 protein in BLM vesicles was increased in rats with diabetes and those given a high-carbohydrate diet, but not in those with experimental hyperglycemia.

136 1512261 Expression and function of GLUT-1 and GLUT-2 glucose transporter isoforms in cells of cultured rat pancreatic islets.
137 1512261 We have previously investigated glucose induction of glucokinase, glucose usage and insulin release in isolated cultured rat pancreatic islets (Liang, Y., Najafit, H., Smith, R.
138 1512261 Here we studied the expression and function of GLUT-1 and GLUT-2 glucose transporter isoforms, using the same system, i.e. isolated pancreatic rat islets immediately after isolation or cultured in the presence of 3 or 30 mM glucose for as long as 10 days.
139 1512261 Some beta-cells in culture coexpressed GLUT-1 and GLUT-2.
140 1512261 GLUT-1 was more effectively induced when glucose was low, and GLUT-2 expression was more pronounced when glucose was high in the culture media.
141 1512261 Another difference between the two glucose transporters was that GLUT-2 expression was increased while GLUT-1 expression was decreased as culturing continued as long as 7 days.
142 1512261 Thus, after 7 days of culture GLUT-2 expression in beta-cells was nearly the same at low and high glucose, whereas GLUT-1 was practically absent no matter what the glucose level was.
143 1512261 In attempts to correlate GLUT-1 and GLUT-2 expression to beta-cell function glucose uptake and glucose-stimulated insulin release in fresh and cultured islets were measured.

208 1559408 In animal models of NIDDM, suppression of GLUT2 in beta-cells is correlated with loss of high-Km glucose transport and glucose-sensitive insulin secretion.
209 1559408 Accordingly, the insulin-responsive GLUT4 isoform expressed exclusively in insulin target tissues has been studied intensively in NIDDM.
210 1559408 In these studies, pretranslational suppression of GLUT4 appears to be the key mechanism of insulin resistance in adipocytes.
211 1559408 However, levels of GLUT4 protein and mRNA are normal in vastus lateralis and rectus abdominis, inferring that defects in GLUT4 functional activity or insulin-mediated translocation cause insulin resistance in muscle.

244 1705526 We found no change in the pancreatic content of GLUT2 mRNA but found marked decreases in the content of proinsulin mRNA (78%, P less than 0.005) and glucokinase mRNA (65%, P less than 0.001).
245 1705526 Furthermore, there was a significant correlation between the decreases in glucokinase and proinsulin mRNA concentrations (r = 0.95, P less than 0.001), suggesting that expression of these genes is regulated in parallel.

253 1727734 These results also suggest that the elevated GLUT2 mRNA level observed in diabetic rat liver is due to the high blood glucose concentration rather than to insulin deficiency.

260 1733721 Treatment of insulin-resistant mice with the oral antidiabetic agent pioglitazone: evaluation of liver GLUT2 and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase expression.
261 1733808 We used antibodies to the fat/muscle glucose transporter (GLUT4) and the liver glucose transporter (GLUT2) to measure levels of these proteins in various tissues of two rodent models of non-insulin-dependent (type II) diabetes mellitus: the obese spontaneously diabetic male Zucker fa/fa rat (ZDF/drt) and the male viable yellow Avy/a obese diabetic mouse.

310 1999433 The glucose-phosphorylating enzyme glucokinase likely plays an important role in regulating glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from the islets of Langerhans and has previously been thought to be expressed only in that tissue and in liver.
311 1999433 In this study, we demonstrate high levels of glucokinase mRNA in the anterior pituitary cell line AtT20ins, which has been engineered to secrete correctly processed insulin, as well as in primary anterior pituitary tissue.
312 1999433 Unlike islet or liver cells, expression of glucokinase mRNA in anterior pituitary cells was not accompanied by expression of the high Km glucose transporter (GLUT-2) mRNA.
313 1999433 Since both the glucokinase protein and mRNA are naturally expressed in AtT20ins and RIN1046-38 cells, we compared the effect of varying concentrations of glucose on insulin secretion from the two lines.
314 1999433 We conclude that glucokinase expression in AtT20ins cells may be necessary, but is not sufficient to confer glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

396 7951561 These results suggest that the hypoglycemic effect of OM is derived, at least in part, from the decrease in hepatic glucose output, due presumably to the reduction of GLUT2 mRNA expression and its protein content in total membrane of the liver, and that because of its unique therapeutic mechanism, OM could be a new category of therapeutic agent for non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

536 8473295 Kinetics of GLUT1 and GLUT4 glucose transporters expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
537 8473295 The predominant mechanism by which insulin activates glucose transport in muscle and adipose tissue is by affecting the redistribution of the facilitated hexose carriers, GLUT1 and GLUT4, from an intracellular site to the plasma membrane.
538 8473295 In order to obtain such information, each transporter was expressed in Xenopus oocytes by the injection of mRNA encoding rat GLUT1 or GLUT4.
539 8473295 Equilibrium exchange 3-O-methylglucose uptake was measured and the data fitted to a two-compartment model, yielding Km = 26.2 mM and Vmax = 3.5 nmol/min/cell for GLUT1 and Km = 4.3 mM and Vmax = 0.7 nmol/min/cell for GLUT4.
540 8473295 Data obtained by either technique revealed that the ratio of plasma membrane GLUT1 to GLUT4 was about 4; this paralleled the relative maximal velocities for hexose transport, indicating that the turn-over numbers for the two isoforms were the same.
541 8473295 These data indicate that, at low substrate concentrations, the catalytic efficiency of GLUT4 is significantly greater than GLUT1.
542 8473295 Extrapolation to mammalian systems suggests that GLUT4 is responsible for virtually all of the hexose uptake in insulin-responsive targets, particularly in the presence of hormone.

546 8513973 We conclude that although GLUT2 is underexpressed, neither the magnitude of the underexpression of GLUT2 nor of the reduction in GLUT2 transport function in islets of GK rats is sufficient by itself to explain the profound reduction in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

573 8688972 GLUT2 immunoreactivity was already significantly reduced in beta cells from mildly diabetic animals in spite of a normal insulin immunoreactivity.
574 8688972 Only beta cells that were densely immunostained for insulin were still GLUT2 positive.
575 8688972 However, around 40% of the beta cells devoid of GLUT2 immunoreactivity were still insulin immunoreactive.

608 8692940 Liver glucokinase catalyzes the first committed step in the disposal of glucose, and beta-cell glucokinase catalyzes a rate-limiting step required for glucose-regulated insulin release.
609 8692940 Since these cells do not express Glut2, we suggest that glucose sensing does not necessarily require the coexpression of Glut2 and glucokinase.
610 8808981 Samples were subjected to slot-blot analysis by using homologous probes for insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, glucose transporter-2 (glut-2), glucokinase, elastase-I, and beta-actin.
611 8808981 This paralleled decreases in glut-2 (p = .001) mRNA levels, but it was in contrast with glucokinase mRNA levels which increased markedly (p = .0003).
612 8808981 Somatostatin mRNA levels were unchanged, glucagon mRNA levels decreased modesty (p = .01), and mRNA levels for elastase-I and beta-actin increased with age (p = .0001 for either one).

620 8894663 This idea is further supported by observing major species differences in islet GLUT2 expression, whereas islet cell glucokinase expression and function are strongly conserved.
621 8904234 Several polymorphisms that result in amino acid substitutions have been identified in GLUT2 and GLUT4 genes.
622 8914990 Changes in membrane expression of sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT1) and glucose transporter isoform (GLUT2) protein have been implicated in the increased intestinal glucose transport in streptozotocin-diabetes.
623 8914990 Using confocal microscopy on tissue sections and Western blotting of purified brush border membrane (BBM) and basolateral membrane (BLM), we have examined enterocyte expression of GLUT1 in untreated and in 1 and 21 day streptozotocin diabetic rats.
624 8914990 In control enterocytes, GLUT1 was absent at the BBM and detected at low levels at the BLM.
625 8914990 Diabetes resulted in a 4- to 5-fold increased expression of GLUT1 at the BLM and the protein could also be readily detected at the BBM.
626 8914990 Insulin treatment of diabetic rats increased GLUT1 level at the BBM but was without effect on expression of the protein at the BLM.
627 8922372 PDX-1 induces insulin and glucokinase gene expressions in alphaTC1 clone 6 cells in the presence of betacellulin.
628 8922372 Among the two important transcription factors for insulin gene expression, IEF1 is present both in alpha- and beta-cells, but PDX-1/IPF1/STF-1/IDX-1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, is present in beta-cells but not in alpha-cells.
629 8922372 The exogenous expression of PDX-1 in alphaTC1.6 cells alone could induce islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) mRNA expression in the cells but not the expression of insulin, glucokinase, or GLUT2 gene.
630 8922372 However, when betacellulin was added to the medium, the PDX-1-expressing alphaTC1.6 cells, but not the control alphaTC1.6 cells, came to express insulin and glucokinase mRNAs.
631 8922372 This did not occur with other growth factors such as epidermal growth factor, transforming growth factor alpha, and insulin-like growth factor I.
632 8922372 GLUT2 mRNA remained undetectable in the PDX-1--expressing alphaTC1.6 cells.
633 8922372 These observations demonstrate the potency of PDX-1 for the expression of the insulin, glucokinase, and IAPP genes and suggest that certain regulatory factors, which can partially be modified by betacellulin, also contribute to the beta-cell specificity of gene expression.

661 8977386 Insulin treatment reduced the beta-cell immunoreactivity (IR) of insulin and GLUT2, which, thus, was reduced in INS + STZ rats at the time of streptozotocin injection.
662 8977386 We conclude that exogenous insulin suppresses the expression of GLUT2 and insulin in beta-cells, and this may prevent the diabetogenic effect of streptozotocin.

667 9000703 Islet GLUT2 and insulin mRNA were measured with quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction.
668 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.

681 9048635 Facilitative glucose transporter (GLUTs 1, 2, 4, and 5) messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are differentially distributed in the rat nephron: GLUT1 is widely expressed, GLUT4 is selectively concentrated in thick ascending limbs, and GLUT2 and 5 are exclusively localized in proximal tubules, consistent with differential roles for these transporters in renal glucose handling.
682 9048635 Medullary GLUT1 and GLUT4 mRNA levels were significantly increased during the acute phase but returned to normal after 1 week.
683 9048635 In summary, medullary GLUT1 and GLUT4 mRNA levels are acutely increased in STZ-DM, paralleling the increased renal epithelial metabolic activity accompanying early diabetes.
684 9048635 Proximal tubular GLUT2 and 5 mRNA levels were increased in chronic STZ-DM, possibly adapting to the increased need for glucose transport out of these epithelial cells, whereas the concomitant decrease in cortical GLUT1 expression may reflect the decreased requirement for basolateral import of glucose into these same cells.

713 9166666 Cell lines that are further engineered to express the GLUT2 and glucokinase genes demonstrate stable expression of the three transgenes for the full lifetime of the lines produced to date (6 months to 1 year in continuous culture).
714 9166666 Several endogenous genes expressed in normal beta-cells, including rat insulin, amylin, sulfonylurea receptor, and glucokinase, are stably expressed in the insulinoma lines during these in vivo studies.

718 9166667 In the accompanying article, we describe the creation of novel cell lines derived from RIN 1046-38 rat insulinoma cells by stable transfection with combinations of genes encoding human insulin, GLUT2, and glucokinase.
719 9166667 A cell line (betaG I/17) expressing only the human proinsulin transgene exhibits a clear increase in basal insulin production (measured in the absence of secretagogues) relative to parental RIN 1046-38 cells. betaG I/17 cells engineered for high levels of GLUT2 expression and a twofold increase in glucokinase activity (betaG 49/206) or engineered for a 10-fold increase in glucokinase activity alone (betaG 40/110) exhibit a 66% and 80% suppression in basal insulin secretion relative to betaG I/17 cells, respectively.
720 9166667 Finally, 5-thioglucose, a potent inhibitor of low-K(m) hexokinases, most effectively normalizes glucose concentration dependence for insulin secretion in the cell line with highest glucokinase expression (betaG 40/110).
721 9166667 We conclude that GLUT2 and/or glucokinase expression imposes tight regulation of basal insulin secretion in cell lines that overexpress human proinsulin, allowing a marked improvement in the range of secretagogue responsiveness in such cells.

723 9166667 A cell line (betaG I/17) expressing only the human proinsulin transgene exhibits a clear increase in basal insulin production (measured in the absence of secretagogues) relative to parental RIN 1046-38 cells. betaG I/17 cells engineered for high levels of GLUT2 expression and a twofold increase in glucokinase activity (betaG 49/206) or engineered for a 10-fold increase in glucokinase activity alone (betaG 40/110) exhibit a 66% and 80% suppression in basal insulin secretion relative to betaG I/17 cells, respectively.
724 9166667 Finally, 5-thioglucose, a potent inhibitor of low-K(m) hexokinases, most effectively normalizes glucose concentration dependence for insulin secretion in the cell line with highest glucokinase expression (betaG 40/110).

730 9185511 The aim of this study was to investigate if these changes were reversible with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a peptide that we have previously shown could increase insulin mRNA and total insulin content in insulinoma cells.
731 9185511 This decrease in glucose levels was reflected in the higher insulin levels attained in the GLP-1-treated animals (936+/-163 pmol/liter vs. 395+/-51 pmol/liter, GLP-1 vs. saline, respectively, P < 0.01), detected 15 min after glucose injection.
732 9185511 GLP-1 treatment also increased pancreatic insulin, GLUT2, and glucokinase mRNA in the old rats.
733 9185511 GLP-1 is therefore able to reverse some of the known defects that arise in the beta cell of the pancreas of Wistar rats, not only by increasing insulin secretion but also by inducing significant changes at the molecular level.

736 9230344 The apparent IC50 of cytochalasin B for inhibiting 3-O-methylglucose transport in beta HC9 cells was nine times as high as in beta TC3 cells, indicating that GLUT1 is the critically important glucose transporter in the beta TC3 cell line and GLUT2 in the beta HC9 cell line.

750 9246934 However, an increased level of GLUT2 was noted in diabetic BLM and this was not a consequence of changes in glycaemic or insulin status.

752 9249589 By immunocytochemistry we have studied the effect of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (rhIGF-I) on expression of renal GLUT-1, -2, and -5 in rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes.
753 9249589 In the renal tubules of these rats, expression of GLUT-1 was reduced and that of GLUT-2 was increased.
754 9249589 GLUT-1 expression was restored, and GLUT-2 expression was normalized by 2-wk administration of rhIGF-I.

766 9267980 Expressing sodium-dependent D-glucose co-transporter (SGLT-1), GLUT2 and GLUT5 mRNA per total jejunal RNA shows increased transporter mRNA in BBdp compared to BBn rats at weaning (21 days) (p < 0.05).
767 9354799 In beta-cells, Glut-2 has been proposed to be active in the control of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS; ref. 2), and its expression is strongly reduced in glucose-unresponsive islets from different animal models of diabetes.
768 9374494 A valine-to-isoleucine mutation at amino acid residue 197 of Glut2 or the equivalent residue 165 of Glut1 has been shown to impair glucose transport activity.
769 9395482 To examine the involvement of glucocorticoids and the cis-acting insulin response sequence (IRS, -416/-407) in the genetically obese db/db mouse model, we generated crosses between C57BL/KsJ-db/+ mice and transgenic mice that express -460 or -2000 base pairs of the rat PEPCK gene promoter containing an intact or mutated IRS, linked to a reporter gene.
770 9395482 Transgenic mice expressing the intact PEPCK(460)-CRP (C-reactive protein) transgene bred to near homozygosity at the db locus were obese, hyperinsulinemic, and developed fasting hyperglycemia (389 +/- 26 mg/100 ml) between 4 and 10 weeks of age.
771 9395482 Treatment of obese diabetic db/db transgenic mice with the glucocorticoid receptor blocker RU 486 decreased plasma glucose by 50% and reduced PEPCK, GLUT2, glucose-6-phosphatase, tyrosine aminotransferase, CRP, and hGx reporter gene expression to levels similar to those of non-obese normoglycemic transgenic mice.
772 9401638 Well-characterized defects in insulin secretion, most notably a loss of glucose-induced insulin secretion, are found in virtually all forms of NIDDM, as well as in early IDDM.
773 9401638 These include a loss of GLUT2, glycogen accumulation, glucose recycling, abnormal glucokinase or hexokinase, altered mitochondrial glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase (mGPDH) activity, abnormal ion channel function and beta cell degranulation.
774 9421374 Ex vivo, a gradual decrement of both GLUT2 protein and mRNA expression was found in pancreatic islets isolated from MLD-STZ-treated C57BL/6 male mice, whereas mRNA expression of beta-actin, glucokinase, and proinsulin remained unaffected.
775 9421374 The STZ-induced reduction of GLUT2 protein and mRNA was not due to an essential loss of beta-cells, because ex vivo, not only the total RNA yield and protein content in isolated islets, but also proinsulin mRNA expression, failed to differ significantly in the differently treated groups.

778 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.
779 9453241 In this report, we assessed the DNA-binding activities of GTIIa and PDX-1 to their respective cis-elements of the GLUT2 promoter using nuclear extracts prepared from pancreatic islets of 12 week old db/db diabetic mice.
780 9453241 We show that the decreased GLUT2 mRNA expression correlates with a decrease of the GTIIa DNA-binding activity, whereas the PDX-1 binding activity is increased.
781 9453241 The adjunction of dexamethasone to isolated pancreatic islets, a treatment previously shown to decrease PDX-1 expression in the insulin-secreting HIT-T15 cells, has no effect on the GTIIa and PDX-1 DNA-binding activities.

786 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.
787 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.
788 9688872 GLUT-2 and GLUT-3 mRNA values were decreased 63 and 77%, respectively (P < 0.01, P < 0.01) at 96 h.
789 9688872 Quantitative immunofluorescence microscopy demonstrated 49 +/- 6 and 66 +/- 4% less GLUT-1 protein at 48 and 96 h and 90 +/- 5 and 84 +/- 6% less GLUT-2 and -3 protein, respectively, at 96 h in diabetic embryos.

797 9751766 Because the fat content of islets of diabetic ZDF rats remains high unless they are treated with leptin, it appears that restoration of GSIS requires normalization of intracellular nutrient homeostasis, whereas up-regulation of GLUT-2 and GK is leptin-independent, requiring only high expression of OB-Rb.

822 9754820 A missense mutation in the CD38 gene, a novel factor for insulin secretion: association with Type II diabetes mellitus in Japanese subjects and evidence of abnormal function when expressed in vitro.
823 9754820 As human lymphocyte antigen CD38 has both ADP-ribosyl cyclase and cADPR hydrolase activity, it may be important in glucose-induced insulin secretion in islets.
824 9754820 One patient with this mutation has two missense mutations on beta cell/liver glucose transporter (GLUT2) gene; her mother, who has impaired glucose tolerance, also has this mutation on the CD38 gene and one missense mutation on the GLUT2 gene.
825 9754820 The Arg140Trp mutation on CD38 thus appears to contribute to the development of Type II diabetes mellitus via the impairment of glucose-induced insulin secretion in the presence of other genetic defects.
826 9761714 The expression of a number of genes encoding key players in insulin signalling and action, including insulin, insulin receptor (IR), downstream signalling molecules such as insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and IRS-2, glucose transporters (GLUT4, GLUT2) and important metabolic enzymes such as glucokinase, has now been altered in transgenic or knockout mice.
827 9761714 Genes encoding insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) and their type I receptor (IGF-IR) have also been disrupted.
828 9761714 However, IR could replace IGF-IR if efficiently activated by IGF-II.
829 9761714 Concerning the issues of specificity and redundancy, studies with cell lines derived from IRS-1-deficient mice showed that IRS-1 and IRS-2 are also not completely interchangeable.
830 9930971 These cell lines exhibit up to four-fold insulin-secretory responses to depolarization with 25 mmol/l K+, 7.68 mmol/l Ca2+, 10 mmol/l L-alanine, and activation of protein kinase C or adenylate cyclase with 10 nmol/l phorbol- 12-myristate-13-acetate or 25 micromol/l forskolin, respectively.
831 9930971 The superior glucose responsiveness of BRIN-BD11 cells compared with BRIN-BG5 or BRIN-BG7 cells was associated with increased expression of GLUT-2 and a greater contribution of glucokinase to total glucose phosphorylating enzyme activity.
832 9930973 We generated a retroviral vector containing the human proinsulin cDNA and the gene coding for the human nerve growth factor receptor for quantitative analysis of transduced cells.
833 9930973 Primary rat hepatocytes were selected as target cells because of the constitutive expression of the pancreatic beta-cell glucose transporter GLUT-2 and the glycolitic enzyme glucokinase.
834 10199129 A lot of key molecules of the systems, including GLUT2, glucokinase, SUR1, Kir6.2 and CD38, have been cloned and characterized whether the mutations in these genes are responsible for the pathogenesis of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM).
835 10342814 The mouse ob gene encodes leptin, an adipocyte hormone that regulates body weight and energy expenditure.
836 10342814 In lean mice, leptin acutely increases glucose metabolism in an insulin-independent manner, which could account, at least in part, for some of the antidiabetic effect of the hormone.
837 10342814 To investigate further the acute effect of leptin on glucose metabolism in insulin-resistant obese diabetic mice, leptin (40 ng x g(-1) x h(-1)) was administered intravenously for 6 h in C57Bl/6J ob/ob mice.
838 10342814 Plasma insulin concentration increased moderately but neither glucose, glucagon, thyroid hormones, growth hormone, nor IGF-1 levels were different from phosphate-buffered saline-infused C57Bl/6J ob/ob mice.
839 10342814 In addition, leptin stimulated hepatic glucose production, which was associated with increased glucose-6-phosphatase activity.
840 10342814 Interestingly, hepatic insulin receptor substrate (IRS)1-associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity was slightly elevated, but neither the content of glucose transporter GLUT2 nor the phosphorylation state of the insulin receptor and IRS-1 were changed by acute leptin treatment.
841 10342814 Insulin resistance of skeletal muscle and WAT, while not affected by acute leptin treatment, could also be corrected in the long term and account for some of leptin's antidiabetic effects.
842 10499550 Glucagon-like peptide-1 regulates the beta cell transcription factor, PDX-1, in insulinoma cells.
843 10499550 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) enhances insulin biosynthesis and secretion as well as transcription of the insulin, GLUT2 and glucokinase genes.
844 10499550 We investigated the possibility that GLP-1 may be having its long-term pleiotropic effects through a hitherto unknown regulation of PDX-1.
845 10499550 We found that PDX-1 mRNA level was significantly increased (p<0.01) after 2 hours and insulin mRNA level was subsequently increased (p<0.01) after 3 hours of treatment with GLP-1 (10 nM) in RIN 1046-38 insulinoma cells.
846 10499550 Overexpression of PDX-1 in these cells confirmed the finding of the wild type cells such that GLP-1 induced a 2-fold increase in whole cell extracts and a 3-fold increase in nuclear extracts of PDX-1 protein levels.
847 10499550 The results of electrophoretic mobility shift experiments showed that PDX-1 protein binding to the Al element of the rat insulin II promoter was also increased 2 h post treatment with GLP-1.
848 10528365 Glucose becomes the predominant exogenous energy substrate and enters the blastocyst via one of three facilitative glucose transporters, GLUT1, GLUT2, and GLUT3.
849 10697115 This line expressed constitutively both the K(ATP) channel and the GLUT2 glucose transporter; but it had a relative lack of glucokinase.
850 10697115 These glucokinase-overexpressing RINm5F cells also stably maintained their molecular and insulin secretory characteristics in vivo.
851 10697115 After implantation into streptozotocin diabetic immunodeficient rats, glucokinase-overexpressing cells retained their insulin responsiveness to physiological glucose stimulation under in vivo conditions.
852 10700186 Islet-brain-1 (IB1, encoded by MAPK8IP1), a novel DNA-binding transactivator of the glucose transporter GLUT2 (encoded by SLC2A2), is the homologue of the c-Jun amino-terminal kinase-interacting protein-1 (JIP-1; refs 2-5).
853 10700186 A 38% decrease in IB1 protein content resulted in a 49% and a 41% reduction in SLC2A2 and INS (encoding insulin) mRNA expression, respectively.
854 10700186 In vitro, this mutation was associated with an inability of IB1 to prevent apoptosis induced by MAPK/ERK kinase kinase 1 (MEKK1) and a reduced ability to counteract the inhibitory action of the activated c-JUN amino-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway on INS transcriptional activity.

858 10748140 DNase I footprinting and electrophoretic mobility shift assay indicated that site C contained one binding site for hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 (HNF1) and two binding sites for HNF3.
859 10748140 The mutations at positions +101 and +103, which are considered to be critical in binding HNF1 and HNF3, resulted in a 53% decrease in promoter activity, whereas the mutation of the proximal HNF3 binding site (+115 and +117) reduced promoter activity by 28%.
860 10748140 The mutations of these four sites resulted in marked decrease (70%) in promoter activity as well as diminished bindings of HNF1 and HNF3.
861 10748140 A to G mutation, which causes conversion of the HNF1 and HNF3 binding sequence to the NF-Y binding site, resulted in a 22% decrease in promoter activity.
862 10748140 We identified that both HNF1 and HNF3 function as transcriptional activators in GLUT2 gene expression.
863 10748140 Coexpression of the pGL+74 (+74 to +301) construct with the HNF1alpha and HNF3beta expression vectors in NIH 3T3 cells showed the synergistic effect on GLUT2 promoter activity compared with the expression of HNF1alpha, HNF3beta, or a combination of HNF1beta and HNF3beta.
864 10748140 These data suggest that HNF1alpha and HNF3beta may be the most important players in the tissue-specific expression of the human GLUT2 gene.

879 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.
880 10851133 As glucose uptake/metabolism is essential for insulin secretion, decreased GLUT2 may contribute to the etiology of diabetes in pdx1(PB)-HNF6 transgenics.
881 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.
882 10868931 In this study, we have identified a subset of the PDX1+ epithelial cells that are marked by expression of Neurogenin3 (Ngn3).
883 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.
884 10868931 NeuroD+ cells do not express Ki-67, a marker of proliferating cells, which shows that these cells are postmitotic.
885 10868931 The earliest sign of alpha-cell development appears to be Brain4 expression, which apparently precedes Islet-1 (ISL1) expression.
886 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).
887 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.
888 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.
889 10898548 Splenocytes were tested against antigens thought to be involved in the disease process, namely insulin, a GAD peptide, a beta-casein peptide, a Glut-2 peptide and concanavalin A (ConA) as a non-specific antigen.

910 10969832 Here, we extend these previous studies by analyzing, in GLUT2-null islets, glucose transporter isoforms and glucokinase expression and by measuring glucose usage, GSIS, and glucose-stimulated insulin mRNA biosynthesis.

930 10972194 However, when ST-treated islets were treated with 1 mg/ml of JDW, the enzyme activities of glucokinase and hexokinase were protected, glucose-6-phosphatase was not.
931 10972194 When the effect of ST on the gene expression of pancreatic GLUT2 and glucokinase were examined, the level of GLUT2 and glucokinase mRNA in pancreatic islets was significantly decreased.
932 10972194 However, JDW protected and improved the expression of protein and genes, indicating that JDW is effective on ST-induced inhibition of gene expression of GLUT2, glucokinase and proinsulin in islets.

936 11016447 Plasma insulin profiles during the infusion period were similar in control and RIPGLUT1 x GLUT2-/- Po- and Fe-mice.
937 11016447 Finally, co-infusion of somatostatin with glucose prevented development of hypoglycemia in control Po-mice, but it did not affect the glycemia or insulinemia of RIPGLUT1 x GLUT2-/- Po-mice.
938 11016447 Together, our data demonstrate that GLUT2 is required for the function of the hepatoportal glucose sensor and that somatostatin could inhibit the glucose signal by interfering with GLUT2-expressing sensing units.

945 11016454 On the other hand, dexamethasone treatment did not alter the amount of GLUT4 protein in total cell lysates but decreased the insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation to the plasma membrane, which possibly caused decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake.
946 11016454 To investigate whether the reduced IRS-1 content is involved in insulin resistance, IRS-1 was overexpressed in dexamethasone-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes using an adenovirus transfection system.
947 11016454 Despite protein expression and phosphorylation levels of IRS-1 being normalized, insulin-induced 2-deoxy-D-[3H]glucose uptake impaired by dexamethasone showed no significant improvement.
948 11016454 Subsequently, we examined the effect of dexamethasone on the glucose uptake increase induced by overexpression of GLUT2-tagged p110alpha, constitutively active Akt (myristoylated Akt), oxidative stress (30 mU glucose oxidase for 2 h), 2 mmol/l 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside for 30 min, and osmotic shock (600 mmol/l sorbitol for 30 min).
949 11016454 Thus, in conclusion, the GLUT1 decrease may be involved in the dexamethasone-induced decrease in basal glucose transport activity, and the mechanism of dexamethasone-induced insulin resistance in glucose transport activity (rather than the inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation resulting from a decreased IRS-1 content) is likely to underlie impaired glucose transporter regulation.
950 11091270 Here we describe the presence of IgG antibodies, in the sera of patients presenting with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), that react in Western blots with a 60-kD protein (Mr 60K) from rat hepatic microsomal extracts.

952 11091270 Using protein extracts from a rat insulinoma cell line (RIN) transfected with the human Glut-2 cDNA, further evidence was obtained suggesting that these IDDM IgGs are specific for the human Glut-2 transporter.

956 11134119 Autoradiography revealed that full-length hNIS was expressed, recognized by a NIS monoclonal antibody, and strongly bound by some sera from patients with autoimmune thyroid disease, which did not react with the GLUT-2 control protein.
957 11134119 There was no correlation between hNIS-Ab and TSH receptor antibodies and only a weak correlation to thyroid peroxidase antibodies (P: < 0. 05).
958 11134119 Comparison of hNIS-Ab, thyroid peroxidase, and TSH receptor antibodies in individual sera revealed that the additional detection of hNIS-Ab did not increase the diagnostic power for GD or HT.
959 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.
960 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.
961 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.
962 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.
963 11316746 Glucagon-like peptide-1 causes pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 protein translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus of pancreatic beta-cells by a cyclic adenosine monophosphate/protein kinase A-dependent mechanism.
964 11316746 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) enhances insulin secretion and synthesis.
965 11316746 It also regulates the insulin, glucokinase, and GLUT2 genes.
966 11316746 It mediates increases in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by activating adenylyl cyclase and elevating free cytosolic calcium levels in the beta-cell.
967 11316746 In addition, GLP-1 has been shown, both in vitro and in vivo, to be involved in regulation of the transcription factor, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 protein (PDX-1), by increasing its total protein levels, its translocation to the nucleus and its binding and resultant increase in activity of the insulin gene promoter in beta-cells of the pancreas.
968 11316746 Three separate inhibitors of PKA, and a cAMP antagonist, inhibited the effects of GLP-1 on PDX-1.
969 11316746 Furthermore, forskolin, (which stimulates adenylyl cyclase and insulin secretion), and 8-Bromo-cAMP, (an analog of cAMP which also stimulates insulin secretion), mimicked the effects of GLP-1 on PDX-1.
970 11316746 Our results suggest that regulation of PDX-1 by GLP-1 occurs through activation of adenylyl cyclase and the resultant increase in intracellular cAMP, in turn, activates PKA, which ultimately leads to increases in PDX-1 protein levels and translocation of the protein to the nuclei of beta-cells.
971 11375328 GLUT2-/- mice reexpressing GLUT1 or GLUT2 in their beta-cells (RIPGLUT1 x GLUT2-/- or RIPGLUT2 x GLUT2-/- mice) have nearly normal glucose-stimulated insulin secretion but show high glucagonemia in the fed state.
972 11390407 Overexpression of GFAT or treatment with glucosamine results in impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and reduction in the expression levels of several beta-cell specific genes (insulin, GLUT2, and glucokinase).
973 11423471 Mutations in the HNF4alpha gene are responsible for type 1 maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY1), which is characterized by a defect in insulin secretion.
974 11423471 Recent evidence has implicated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the modulation of both insulin secretion by pancreatic beta-cells and the control of glucose-dependent gene expression in both hepatocytes and beta-cells.
975 11423471 Therefore, the question could be raised as to whether AMPK plays a role in these processes by modulating HNF-4alpha function.
976 11423471 In this study, we show that activation of AMPK by 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICAR) in hepatocytes greatly diminished HNF-4alpha protein levels and consequently downregulates the expression of HNF-4alpha target genes.
977 11423471 Quantitative evaluation of HNF-4alpha target gene expression revealed diminished mRNA levels for HNF-1alpha, GLUT2, L-type pyruvate kinase, aldolase B, apolipoprotein (apo)-B, and apoCIII.
978 11423471 Our data clearly demonstrate that the MODY1/HNF-4alpha transcription factor is a novel target of AMPK in hepatocytes.
979 11423471 Accordingly, it can be suggested that in pancreatic beta-cells, AMPK also acts by decreasing HNF-4alpha protein level, and therefore insulin secretion.
980 11440906 D-mannoheptulose is apparently transported into cells mainly at the intervention of GLUT-2 and hence was recently proposed as a tool to label preferentially insulin-producing beta-cells in the pancreatic gland.

994 11484921 In the diabetic state the pancreatic beta cells displayed a weak immunostaining for insulin and glucokinase together with a lack of GLUT2 glucose transporter immunoreactivity in the plasma membrane.
995 11484921 Ten days after transplantation, the surviving beta cells had regained their normal immunostaining for insulin and for the glucose recognition structures glucokinase and the A single high dose of streptozotocin causes severe experimental insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in adult rats due to a selective destruction of the pancreatic beta cells in the islets of Langerhans.
996 11485019 Furthermore, in the human beta cell GLUT1 mRNA is predominant when compared to GLUT2 and glucose influx appears to be largely mediated by this low-Km transporter.
997 11485019 Thus, we looked for the presence of sequence variants by polymerase chain reaction and single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) within the GLUT1 gene in 90 Italian pedigrees negative at the search for mutations in glucokinase (MODY2) and hepatocyte nuclear factor-1alpha (MODY3), the two genes responsible for about 60% of MODY cases in Italian children.
998 11485019 In conclusion, it appears from these results that the glucose transporter gene GLUT1 is unlikely to play a major role in the etiology of MODY diabetes.
999 11555835 Alterations in beta-cell function, such as formation of amyloid from excessive production of amylin and reduced expression of GLUT2, have been suggested to be possible mechanisms.
1000 11555835 We compared in vivo secretory responses of amylin and insulin (n = 37) and expression of GLUT2 in pancreata (n = 10) obtained at surgery between diabetic and nondiabetic patients with and without pancreatic tumors.

1003 11606464 One expressed the glucose transporter-2 (Glut-2), and the other cell type coexpressed insulin and somatostatin.
1004 11679424 We found decreased steady-state mRNA levels of genes encoding glucose transporter 2 (Glut2), neutral and basic amino acid transporter, liver pyruvate kinase (L-Pk), and insulin in Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.
1005 11679424 In addition, we determined that the expression of several islet-enriched transcription factors, including Pdx-1, Hnf-4alpha, and Neuro-D1/Beta-2, was reduced in Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.
1006 11679424 This expression profile was pancreatic islet-specific and distinct from hepatocytes, where we found normal expression of Glut2, L-Pk, and Hnf-4alpha in the liver of Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.
1007 11679424 The expression of small heterodimer partner (Shp-1), an orphan receptor that can heterodimerize with Hnf-4alpha and inhibit its transcriptional activity, was also reduced in Hnf-1alpha(-/-) islets.
1008 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.
1009 11679424 We further showed that Shp-1 can repress its own transcriptional activation by inhibiting Hnf-4alpha function, thereby establishing a feedback autoregulatory loop.
1010 11679424 We found decreased steady-state mRNA levels of genes encoding glucose transporter 2 (Glut2), neutral and basic amino acid transporter, liver pyruvate kinase (L-Pk), and insulin in Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.
1011 11679424 In addition, we determined that the expression of several islet-enriched transcription factors, including Pdx-1, Hnf-4alpha, and Neuro-D1/Beta-2, was reduced in Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.
1012 11679424 This expression profile was pancreatic islet-specific and distinct from hepatocytes, where we found normal expression of Glut2, L-Pk, and Hnf-4alpha in the liver of Hnf-1alpha(-/-) mice.

1016 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.
1017 11687580 We have recently shown that interleukin-1 beta + interferon-gamma modifies the expression of >200 genes in beta-cells.
1018 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.
1019 11687580 Cytokine-induced NF-kappa B activation decreased Pdx-1 and increased c-Myc expression.
1020 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.
1021 11720253 Effect of GLP-1 treatment on GLUT2 and GLUT4 expression in type 1 and type 2 rat diabetic models.
1022 11720253 Glucagon-like peptide-1 (G LP-1) is an incretin with glucose-dependent insulinotropic and insulin-independent antidiabetic properties that exerts insulin-like effects on glucose metabolism in rat liver, skeletal muscle, and fat.
1023 11720253 This study aimed to search for the effect of a prolonged treatment, 3 ds, with GLP-1 on glucotransporter GLUT2 expression in liver, and on that of GLUT4 in skeletal muscle and fat, in rats.
1024 11720253 In the type 2 diabetic model, GLP-1, like insulin, stimulated in liver and fat only the glucotransporter translational process, while in the muscle an effect at the GLUT4 transcriptional level was also observed.
1025 11720253 In the type 1 diabetic model, GLP-1 apparently exerted in the liver only a posttranslational effect on GLUT2 expression; in muscle and fat, while insulin was shown to have an action on GLUT4 at both transcriptional and translational levels, the effect of GLP-1 was restricted to glucotransporter translation.
1026 11720253 In normal and diabetic rats, exogenous GLP-1 controlled the glucotransporter expression in extrapancreatic tissues participating in the overall glucose homeostasis-liver, muscle, and fat-where the effect of the peptide seems to be exerted only at the translational and/or posttranslational level; in muscle and fat, the presence of insulin seems to be required for GLP-1 to activate the transcriptional process.

1049 11723058 We have developed three transgenic models in which growth factors (hepatocyte growth factor [HGF], placental lactogen, or parathyroid hormone-related protein) have been targeted to the beta-cell using rat insulin promoter (RIP).
1050 11723058 RIP-HGF islets, P < 0.01), have two- to threefold higher GLUT2 and glucokinase steady-state mRNA levels, take up and metabolize glucose more effectively, and most importantly, function at least twice as effectively after transplantation.
1051 11741307 Differential sensitivity of GLUT1- and GLUT2-expressing beta cells to streptozotocin.
1052 11741307 Here, we evaluated the toxic effect of streptozotocin (STZ) in GLUT2(-/-) mice reexpressing either GLUT1 or GLUT2 in their beta cells under the rat insulin promoter (RIPG1 x G2(-/-) and RIPG2 x G2(-/-) mice, respectively).
1053 11741307 Differential sensitivity of GLUT1- and GLUT2-expressing beta cells to streptozotocin.
1054 11741307 Here, we evaluated the toxic effect of streptozotocin (STZ) in GLUT2(-/-) mice reexpressing either GLUT1 or GLUT2 in their beta cells under the rat insulin promoter (RIPG1 x G2(-/-) and RIPG2 x G2(-/-) mice, respectively).
1055 11780755 This signalling mechanism depends on glucose metabolism and requires the presence of specific molecules such as GLUT2, glucokinase and the K(ATP) channel subunits Kir6.2 and SUR1.
1056 11782487 Expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), with several target genes, were reciprocally regulated; PPARalpha was markedly reduced even at low level hyperglycemia, whereas PPARgamma was progressively increased with increasing hyperglycemia.
1057 11782487 Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP-2) was increased as were other genes barely expressed in sham islets including lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDH-A), lactate (monocarboxylate) transporters, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, 12-lipoxygenase, and cyclooxygenase 2.
1058 11782487 On the other hand, the expression of beta-cell-associated genes, insulin, and GLUT2 were decreased.
1059 11804845 Western analysis indicated that SGLT1 and GLUT5 protein levels were also 4.3- and 4.1-fold higher in diabetic patients.
1060 11804845 This was associated with threefold increases in SGLT1 and GLUT5 mRNA measured by Northern blotting.
1061 11804845 Analysis of other BBM proteins indicated that the activity and abundance of sucrase and lactase were increased by 1.5- to 2-fold and the level of the structural proteins villin and beta-actin was enhanced 2-fold in diabetic patients compared with controls.
1062 11804845 The increase in the capacity of the intestine to absorb monosaccharides in human NIDDM is due to a combination of intestinal structural change with a specific increase in the expression of the monosaccharide transporters SGLT1, GLUT5, and GLUT2.
1063 11815473 Altered beta-cell distribution of pdx-1 and GLUT-2 after a short-term challenge with a high-fat diet in C57BL/6J mice.
1064 11815473 However, the nuclear translocation of the homeobox transcription factor, pdx-1, and the plasma membrane translocation of GLUT2 were both impaired in high-fat-fed animals after 1 week.
1065 11815473 The early-onset islet dysfunction is accompanied by impaired beta-cell trafficking of two factors, pdx-1 and GLUT-2, which are involved in beta-cell proliferation and glucose recognition.

1072 11904435 Profound defects in pancreatic beta-cell function in mice with combined heterozygous mutations in Pdx-1, Hnf-1alpha, and Hnf-3beta.
1073 11904435 In mice, a heterozygous mutation in Pdx-1 alone, but not Hnf-1alpha(+/-), Hnf-3beta(+/-), or Hnf-4alpha(+/-), causes impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in mice.
1074 11904435 To investigate the possible functional relationships between these transcription factors on beta-cell activity in vivo, we generated mice with the following combined heterozygous mutations: Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-1alpha(+/-), Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-3beta(+/-), Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-4alpha(+/-), Hnf-1alpha(+/-)/Hnf-4alpha(+/-), and Hnf-3beta(+/-)/Hnf-4alpha(+/-).
1075 11904435 The greatest loss in function was in combined heterozygous null alleles of Pdx-1 and Hnf-1alpha (Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-1alpha(+/-)), or Pdx-1 and Hnf-3beta (Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-3beta(+/-)).
1076 11904435 Both double mutants develop progressively impaired glucose tolerance and acquire a compromised first- and second-phase insulin secretion profile in response to glucose compared with Pdx-1(+/-) mice alone.
1077 11904435 The loss in beta-cell function in Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-3beta(+/-) mice was associated with decreased expression of Nkx-6.1, glucokinase (Gck), aldolase B (aldo-B), and insulin, whereas Nkx2.2, Nkx-6.1, Glut-2, Gck, aldo-B, the liver isoform of pyruvate kinase, and insulin expression was reduced in Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-1alpha(+/-) mice.
1078 11904435 The islet cell architecture was also abnormal in Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-3beta(+/-) and Pdx-1(+/-)/Hnf-1alpha(+/-) mice, with glucagon-expressing cells scattered throughout the islet, a defect that may be connected to decreased E-cadherin expression.
1079 11923875 beta-cell-specific deletion of the Igf1 receptor leads to hyperinsulinemia and glucose intolerance but does not alter beta-cell mass.
1080 11923875 Insulin-like growth factor 1 (Igf1) has been implicated in islet development and differentiated function, but the factors controlling this process are poorly understood.
1081 11923875 Pancreatic islets produce Igf1 and Igf2, which bind to specific receptors on beta-cells.
1082 11923875 Igf1 has been shown to influence beta-cell apoptosis, and both Igf1 and Igf2 increase islet growth; Igf2 does so in a manner additive with fibroblast growth factor 2 (ref. 10).
1083 11923875 When mice deficient for the Igf1 receptor (Igf1r(+/-)) are bred with mice lacking insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2(-/-)), the resulting compound knockout mice show a reduction in mass of beta-cells similar to that observed in pancreas of Igf1r(-/-) mice (ref. 11), suggesting a role for Igf1r in growth of beta-cells.
1084 11923875 To directly define the role of Igf1, we have created a mouse with a beta-cell-specific knockout of Igf1r (betaIgf1r(-/-)).
1085 11923875 These mice show normal growth and development of beta-cells, but have reduced expression of Slc2a2 (also known as Glut2) and Gck (encoding glucokinase) in beta-cells, which results in defective glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and impaired glucose tolerance.
1086 11942578 Gradual loss of pancreatic beta-cell insulin, glucokinase and GLUT2 glucose transporter immunoreactivities during the time course of nutritionally induced type-2 diabetes in Psammomys obesus (sand rat).
1087 11942578 However, a loss of immunostaining for insulin as well as for the GLUT2 glucose transporter in the plasma membrane and the glucokinase in the cytoplasm of the pancreatic beta cells became evident only when the animals subsequently developed hyperglycaemia.
1088 11942578 Insulin immunostaining as well as GLUT2 glucose transporter immunostaining in the plasma membrane and glucokinase immunostaining in the cytoplasm were reduced by more than 50%.

1095 11961501 GLP-1, released from intestinal L-cells, is renowned for its potent stimulation of insulin biosynthesis and release from pancreatic b-cells.
1096 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.
1097 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.
1098 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.
1099 11964395 The steady-state levels of PEPCK and glucose-6-phosphatase mRNAs were elevated in livers of TG mice and were resistant to down-regulation by insulin.
1100 11964395 Conversely, GLUT2 and glucokinase mRNA levels were appropriately regulated by insulin, suggesting that insulin resistance is selective to gluconeogenic gene expression.
1101 11964395 Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, and associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase were normal in TG mice, whereas IRS-2 protein and phosphorylation were down-regulated compared with control mice.
1102 11964395 Furthermore, these results demonstrate that PEPCK overexpression results in a metabolic pattern that increases glucose-6-phosphatase mRNA and results in a selective decrease in IRS-2 protein, decreased phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity, and reduced ability of insulin to suppress gluconeogenic gene expression.
1103 11964395 However, acute suppression of HGP and glycolytic gene expression remained intact, suggesting that FFA and/or IRS-1 signaling, in addition to reduced IRS-2, plays an important role in downstream insulin signal transduction pathways involved in control of gluconeogenesis and progression to type II diabetes mellitus.
1104 11978637 Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1alpha recruits the transcriptional co-activator p300 on the GLUT2 gene promoter.
1105 11978637 Mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha gene have been linked to subtype 3 of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), a disease characterized by a primary defect in insulin secretion.
1106 11978637 Here we show that the human GLUT2 gene is closely regulated by HNF-1alpha via sequences downstream of the transcriptional start site by interaction with transcriptional co-activator p300.

1116 12017192 Glucose transporter type 2 (GLUT2), along with glucokinase, has been implicated to participate in glucose-induced insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells.
1117 12017192 Recently, several sequence variations in the promoter of GLUT2 have been identified in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), but the functional effects of these polymorphisms on promoter activity have not previously been studied.

1120 12021173 Furthermore, GLUT2 protein levels were higher, which may explain an increase in glucokinase activity in DBA/2 mouse islets.
1121 12026163 As GLUT2 and glucokinase (GCK) are not constitutively expressed by these cells, human GLUT2 cDNA and GCK cDNA were cotransfected with furin-sensitive preproinsulin cDNA into Vero cells.
1122 12026163 Insulin and GCK proteins were detected in the cytoplasmic region of the resulting cells, whereas GLUT2 was predominantly expressed in the nucleus.
1123 12026163 Coexpression of GLUT2 and GCK did not result in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
1124 12026163 Coexpression of GLUT2 and GCK, at the levels achieved here, is not adequate enough to induce glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in such cells; the subcellular location of transfected components may be relevant.

1133 12026163 As GLUT2 and glucokinase (GCK) are not constitutively expressed by these cells, human GLUT2 cDNA and GCK cDNA were cotransfected with furin-sensitive preproinsulin cDNA into Vero cells.
1134 12026163 Insulin and GCK proteins were detected in the cytoplasmic region of the resulting cells, whereas GLUT2 was predominantly expressed in the nucleus.
1135 12026163 Coexpression of GLUT2 and GCK did not result in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
1136 12026163 Coexpression of GLUT2 and GCK, at the levels achieved here, is not adequate enough to induce glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in such cells; the subcellular location of transfected components may be relevant.
1137 12031967 Overexpression of c-Myc in beta-cells of transgenic mice causes proliferation and apoptosis, downregulation of insulin gene expression, and diabetes.
1138 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.
1139 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.
1140 12031967 Immunostaining for both GLUT2 and Nkx6.1 was mainly cytoplasmic.
1141 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.

1147 12124776 Exendin-4 differentiation of a human pancreatic duct cell line into endocrine cells: involvement of PDX-1 and HNF3beta transcription factors.
1148 12124776 Western blot analysis detected a progressive increase in protein levels of glucokinase and GLUT2 over 3 days of EX-4 treatment.
1149 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).
1150 12124776 Double immunostaining showed that PDX-1 coexisted with insulin and glucagon in EX-4-treated cells.
1151 12124776 EMSA results indicated that EX-4 caused a 12-fold increase in HNF3beta binding to PDX-1 promoter area II.
1152 12124776 Differentiation to insulin-producing cells was also seen when Capan-1 cells were transfected with pdx-1, with 80% of these cells expressing insulin 3 days after transfection.
1153 12124776 During the differentiation of duct cells to endocrine cells, cAMP levels (EX-4 is a ligand for the GLP-1, G-protein coupled receptor) and MAP kinase activity increased.
1154 12124776 Our results indicate that EX-4 activates adenylyl cyclase and MAP kinase which, in turn, may lead to activation of transcription factors necessary for an endocrine phenotype.
1155 12137914 In this study, we report that the glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) and glucokinase (GK) are target molecules for ALX.
1156 12137914 The mRNA expression of beta-actin was also slightly affected with time after ALX exposure, the proinsulin mRNA, however, remained unaffected as well as the pancreatic total insulin content.
1157 12137914 Injections of multiple low doses (MLD) of STZ reduced GLUT2 expression only, but failed to affect expression of GK and proinsulin as well as beta-actin as internal control.
1158 12137914 In this study, we report that the glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) and glucokinase (GK) are target molecules for ALX.
1159 12137914 The mRNA expression of beta-actin was also slightly affected with time after ALX exposure, the proinsulin mRNA, however, remained unaffected as well as the pancreatic total insulin content.

1161 12193567 Transfection of pancreatic-derived beta-cells with a minigene encoding for human glucagon-like peptide-1 regulates glucose-dependent insulin synthesis and secretion.
1162 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.
1163 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).
1164 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.
1165 12193567 Detection of the counterpart proteins (insulin and GLP-1) in the culture medium paralleled the observation derived from the Northern blot analysis.
1166 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.
1167 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.
1168 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.
1169 12525695 Expression of Pax4 in embryonic stem cells promotes differentiation of nestin-positive progenitor and insulin-producing cells.
1170 12525695 We show that constitutive expression of Pax4 (Pax4(+)), and to a lesser extent Pdx1 (Pdx1(+)), affects the differentiation of ES cells and significantly promote the development of insulin-producing cells.
1171 12525695 In Pax4 overexpressing R1 ES cells, isl-1, ngn3, insulin, islet amyloid polypeptide, and glucose transporter 2 (Glut-2) mRNA levels increase significantly.
1172 12525695 Constitutive Pax4 expression combined with selection of nestin+ cells and histotypic culture conditions give rise to spheroids containing insulin-positive granules typical of embryonal and adult beta cells.
1173 12639990 EGFP-positive cells purified from islets express insulin, glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2), and transcription factors typically found in pancreatic beta cells.
1174 12676649 Combination therapy with PPARgamma and PPARalpha agonists increases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in db/db mice.
1175 12676649 Although peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma agonists ameliorate insulin resistance, they sometimes cause body weight gain, and the effect of PPAR agonists on insulin secretion is unclear.
1176 12676649 We evaluated the effects of combination therapy with a PPARgamma agonist, pioglitazone, and a PPARalpha agonist, bezafibrate, and a dual agonist, KRP-297, for 4 wk in male C57BL/6J mice and db/db mice, and we investigated glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) by in situ pancreatic perfusion.
1177 12676649 Plasma glucose, insulin, triglyceride, and nonesterified fatty acid levels were elevated in untreated db/db mice compared with untreated C57BL/6J mice, and these parameters were significantly ameliorated in the PPARgamma agonist-treated groups.
1178 12676649 Also, PPARgamma agonists ameliorated the diminished GSIS and insulin content, and they preserved insulin and GLUT2 staining in db/db mice.
1179 12676649 We conclude that combination therapy with PPARgamma and PPARalpha agonists may be more useful with respect to body weight and pancreatic GSIS in type 2 diabetes with obesity.
1180 12684063 In this study, we found that the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Mad, which usually acts as a repressor to c-Myc, enhances insulin gene transcription.
1181 12684063 In isolated rat islets adenoviral overexpression of Mad augmented insulin mRNA expression and insulin protein content, as well as glucokinase and GLUT2 mRNA expression.
1182 12684063 That the effects of Mad on insulin expression were mediated through PDX-1 was further substantiated by studies showing inhibition of insulin promoter activation by Mad in the presence of mutated PDX-1 binding site.
1183 12684063 Such regulation of insulin expression by Mad with modulation of PDX-1 expression and DNA binding activity could offer useful therapeutic and/or experimental tools to promote insulin production in appropriate cell types.
1184 12852853 Suppression of beta cell energy metabolism and insulin release by PGC-1alpha.
1185 12852853 The transcriptional coactivator PGC-1alpha mRNA and protein levels are significantly elevated in islets from multiple animal models of diabetes; adenovirus-mediated expression of PGC-1alpha to levels similar to those present in diabetic rodents produces a marked inhibition of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from islets in culture and in live mice.
1186 12852853 This inhibition coincides with changes in metabolic gene expression associated with impaired beta cell function, including the induction of glucose-6-phosphatase and suppression of GLUT2, glucokinase, and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
1187 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.
1188 14519599 Gene expression analysis of islets revealed a modest reduction of GLUT2 and glucokinase gene expression in both the nondiabetic and diabetic mutants.
1189 14551916 Polymorphisms in five of 15 genes (33%) encoding molecules known to primarily influence pancreatic beta-cell function-ABCC8 (sulphonylurea receptor), KCNJ11 (KIR6.2), SLC2A2 (GLUT2), HNF4A (HNF4alpha), and INS (insulin)-significantly altered disease risk, and in three genes, the risk allele, haplotype, or both had a biologically consistent effect on a relevant physiological trait in the QT study.
1190 14551916 We examined 35 genes predicted to have their major influence on insulin action, and three (9%)-INSR, PIK3R1, and SOS1-showed significant associations with diabetes.
1191 14690455 Over-expression of sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein-1c (SREBP1c) in rat pancreatic islets induces lipogenesis and decreases glucose-stimulated insulin release: modulation by 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR).
1192 14690455 In the present study, we determine whether over-expression in rat islets of the lipogenic transcription factor SREBP1c (sterol-regulatory-element-binding protein-1c) affects insulin release, and whether changes in islet lipid content may be reversed by activation of AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase).
1193 14690455 Real-time PCR (TaqMan) analysis showed that SREBP1c up-regulated the expression of FAS (fatty acid synthase; 6-fold), acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1 (2-fold), as well as peroxisomal-proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (7-fold), uncoupling protein-2 (1.4-fold) and Bcl2 (B-cell lymphocytic-leukaemia proto-oncogene 2; 1.3-fold).
1194 14690455 By contrast, levels of pre-proinsulin, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1, glucokinase and GLUT2 (glucose transporter isoform-2) mRNAs were unaltered.
1195 14690455 Culture of islets with the AMPK activator 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside decreased the expression of the endogenous SREBP1c and FAS genes, and reversed the effect of over-expressing active SREBP1c on FAS mRNA levels and cellular triacylglycerol content.
1196 14749267 The improved insulin sensitivity may be achieved either by systemic insulin sensitization or by direct action of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma on the transcription of genes involved in glucose disposal.
1197 14749267 Evidence supporting the direct action of PPAR-gamma on glucose metabolism is observed in the genes involved in insulin-stimulated glucose disposal.
1198 14749267 We already showed that GLUT2 and beta-glucokinase were directly activated by PPAR-gamma.
1199 14749267 Recently, we have identified and characterized the functional PPAR response element in the GLUT2 and liver type glucokinase (LGK) promoter of the liver.
1200 14749267 The improved insulin sensitivity may be achieved either by systemic insulin sensitization or by direct action of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma on the transcription of genes involved in glucose disposal.

1203 14749267 Recently, we have identified and characterized the functional PPAR response element in the GLUT2 and liver type glucokinase (LGK) promoter of the liver.
1204 14758569 Here, we describe differential in vitro effects of STZ and ALX on beta-cell molecules that are essential for glucose transport and metabolism, the glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) and glucokinase (GK), respectively.
1205 14758569 Both STZ and ALX failed to affect the mRNA expression of proinsulin and of beta-actin.
1206 14988237 Insulin receptor and GLUT4 mRNAs were coexpressed in 75% of GE, 60% of GI, and 40% of NG neurons, although there were no statistically significant intergroup differences.
1207 14988237 Hexokinase-I, GLUT3, and lactate dehydrogenase-A and -B were ubiquitous, whereas GLUT2, monocarboxylate transporters-1 and -2, and leptin receptor and GAD mRNAs were expressed less frequently and without apparent relationship to glucosensing capacity.
1208 15206160 Glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1), an intestinal hormone secreted by L cells in response to luminal nutrients(carbohydrate and fat), enhances glucose-induced insulin secretion.
1209 15206160 Impairment of glucose-induced insulin secretion in patients with type 2 diabetes can be restored to near-normal by GLP-1 administration.
1210 15206160 In addition, GLP-1 possesses multiple biological effects which are favorable for the treatment of type 2 diabetes: inhibition of glucagon secretion, slowing of gastric emptying, reduction of appetite and food intake, upregulation of genes essential for insulin secretion(glucokinase, GLUT-2 etc), and beta cell proliferation and differentiation.
1211 15220196 Specifically, the mBMDS cells expressed multiple genes related to pancreatic beta-cell development and function (insulin I and II, Glut2, glucose kinase, islet amyloid polypeptide, nestin, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 [PDX-1], and Pax6).
1212 15279492 It has been suggested that certain cells in the brain, like pancreatic beta-cells, use glucose transporter-2 (GLUT-2), glucokinase and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) to sense glucose in the service of multiple aspects of energy balance.
1213 15279492 Additionally, we measured circulating levels of glucose, leptin, insulin, corticosterone and glucagon.
1214 15279492 The results indicate that GLUT-2 mRNA expression is decreased, whereas glucokinase is increased in the hindbrain of obese rats.
1215 15279492 NPY mRNA level is significantly higher, whereas GLP-1R is significantly lower in the medial hypothalamus in obese individuals.
1216 15279492 Gender-related differences were found in the hindbrain and medial hypothalamus for GLUT-2 and in the lateral hypothalamus for GLP-1R and they may be related to the fact that the female Zucker rats do not develop diabetes as readily as males.

1227 15331526 Transduction with a virus expressing an siRNA specific for GLUT2 reduced GLUT2 mRNA and protein levels by 80% in the INS-1-derived beta-cell line, 832/13, and GLUT2 protein levels by >90% in primary rat islets.
1228 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.
1229 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.
1230 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.
1231 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.
1232 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.
1233 15630453 The abundance of mRNAs for Glut2 and HNF3beta was reduced in islets of betaPKClambda(-/-) mice, and the expression of genes regulated by HNF3beta was also affected (that of Sur1 and Kir6.2 genes was reduced, whereas that of hexokinase 1 and hexokinase 2 genes was increased).
1234 15630453 Normalization of HNF3beta expression by infection of islets from betaPKClambda(-/-) mice with an adenoviral vector significantly reversed the defect in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
1235 15734849 The defects were accompanied by reduced mRNA expression of GLUT1 and -2 and glucokinase and by diminished glucose oxidation.
1236 15734849 Furthermore, the expression of insulin was decreased, and that of pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) and forkhead box O1 (Foxo-1) was increased.
1237 15793230 Liver fatty acid synthase mRNA and fatty acid synthesis rates were dramatically increased in GLUT4 null mice compared with control mice and were supported by increased rates of the pentose phosphate pathway oxidative phase and sterol regulatory binding protein mRNA expression.
1238 15793230 Increased GLUT2 protein content, glucokinase mRNA, and glucose-6-phosphate in GLUT4 null mice may provide substrate for the enhanced fatty acid synthesis.
1239 15793230 GLUT4 null mice rapidly cleared orally administered olive oil, had reduced serum triglyceride concentrations in the fed and the fasted state, and increased skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase when compared with controls.
1240 15855808 Increased urinary TGF-beta1 and cortical renal GLUT1 and GLUT2 levels: additive effects of hypertension and diabetes.

1257 15886523 In the present study, we show that the expression of type 2 glucose transporter isoform (GLUT2) could be regulated by PPAR-gamma in the liver.
1258 15886523 Rosiglitazone, PPAR-gamma agonist, activated the GLUT2 mRNA level in the primary cultured hepatocytes and Alexander cells, when these cells were transfected with PPAR-gamma/RXR-alpha.
1259 15886523 Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay using ob/ob mice also showed that PPAR-gamma rather than PPAR-alpha binds to the -197/-184 region of GLUT2 promoter.
1260 15886523 Taken together, liver GLUT2 may be a direct target of PPAR-gamma ligand contributing to glucose transport into liver in a condition when PAPR-gamma expression is increased as in type 2 diabetes or in severe obesity.

1273 15923615 MafA is a key regulator of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
1274 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.
1275 15923615 To analyze the role of MafA in insulin transcription and glucose homeostasis in vivo, we generated MafA-deficient mice.
1276 15923615 Further analysis revealed that insulin 1, insulin 2, Pdx1, Beta2, and Glut-2 transcripts are diminished in MafA-deficient mice.
1277 15923615 These results show that MafA is a key regulator of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vivo.

1279 15935394 Elevated expression of PPI, PDX-1 and GLUT2 was also observed after treatment of the islets with oleic acid, which may partially contribute to the increased basal insulin secretion.

1282 15983210 Targeted inactivation of hepatocyte growth factor receptor c-met in beta-cells leads to defective insulin secretion and GLUT-2 downregulation without alteration of beta-cell mass.
1283 15983210 Furthermore, whereas insulin and glucokinase expression in MetCKO islets were normal, GLUT-2 expression was decreased by approximately 50%.
1284 15983210 We conclude that HGF/c-met signaling in the beta-cell is not essential for beta-cell growth, but it is essential for normal glucose-dependent insulin secretion.

1288 15983230 The aim of this study was to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes regulating insulin secretion (SLC2A2 [encoding GLUT2], GCK, TCF1 [encoding HNF-1alpha], HNF4A, GIP, and GLP1R) are associated with the conversion from impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) to type 2 diabetes in participants of the Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study.
1289 16109755 Islet cell differentiation was studied by the following: (a) X-gal staining after neomycin selection, (b) BrdU (bro-modeoxyuridine) studies, (c) simple and double immunohistochemistry for insulin, C-peptide, and glucose transporter 2 (Glut-2), (d) reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction for insulin and pancreas duodenum homeobox 1 (PDX-1), (e) insulin and C-peptide content and secretion assays, (f) intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test, (g) electrophysiology (patch-clamp studies in inside-out configuration), and (h) transplantation of differentiated cells under the kidney capsule of streptozotocin-diabetic mice.

1293 16186415 In the apical GLUT2 model, the glucose transported by the Na(+)/glucose cotransporter SGLT1 promotes insertion of GLUT2 into the apical membrane within minutes, so that the mechanism operates during assimilation of a meal containing high-glycemic index carbohydrate to provide a facilitated component of absorption up to three times greater than by SGLT1.

1310 16306358 They continue to express the proximal tubular markers CD13/aminopeptidase-N, sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 2, and alkaline phosphatase through up to six subsequent subcultures in a similar way to human proximal cells isolated from renal biopsies.
1311 16306358 In a hyperglycemic environment, HEPTECs isolated from patients with type 2 diabetes expressed significantly more SGLT2 and the facilitative glucose transporter GLUT2 than cells from healthy individuals.
1312 16377570 Pancreatic beta cell-surface expression of glucose transporter 2 (Glut-2) is essential for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, thereby controlling blood glucose homeostasis in response to dietary intake.
1313 16377570 We show that the murine GlcNAcT-IVa glycosyltransferase is required for Glut-2 residency on the beta cell surface by constructing a cell-type- and glycoprotein-specific N-glycan ligand for pancreatic lectin receptors.

1316 16469158 High-fat feeding reduces the expression of GLUT-2 and the glycolytic enzyme glucokinase (GK).
1317 16469158 The transcription factor, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (Pdx-1), is important for beta-cell maintenance.
1318 16469158 The aim of the present study was to determine, in weanling Wistar rats, the effect of a maternal high-fat diet (HFD) during defined periods of gestation and lactation, on body weight, circulating glucose and insulin concentrations, and the expression of GLUT-2, GK and Pdx-1.
1319 16469158 Pancreatic sections, immunostained for GLUT-2, GK or Pdx-1, were assessed by image analysis.

1328 16567529 While essentially complete release of NPY-Venus was observed in 24 +/- 1% of glucose-stimulated exocytotic events in cells maintained at 10 mmol/l glucose, this value was reduced reversibly to 5 +/- 2% of events by culture at 30 mmol/l glucose, in line with decreases in Glut2 and glucokinase gene expression, and attenuated glucose-stimulated increases in NADPH and intracellular [Ca2+].
1329 16612126 These infants are unable to suppress glucose production within a large range of glucose and insulin concentrations, insulin secretory response is inappropriate, insulin processing is immature and there is an increased ratio of the glucose transporters Glut-1/Glut-2 in fetal tissues, which limits sensitivity and hepatocyte reaction to increments in glucose/insulin concentration during hyperglycaemia.
1330 16731793 Early and rapid development of insulin resistance, islet dysfunction and glucose intolerance after high-fat feeding in mice overexpressing phosphodiesterase 3B.
1331 16731793 Histochemical analysis revealed severe islet perturbations, such as centrally located alpha-cells and reduced immunostaining for insulin and GLUT2 in islets from RIP-PDE3B/2 mice.
1332 16731793 Additionally, in vitro experiments revealed that the insulin secretory response to glucagon-like peptide-1 stimulation was markedly reduced in islets from high-fat-fed RIP-PDE3B/2 mice.
1333 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.
1334 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.
1335 16801329 Renal histology and immunohistochemistry analyses of mutant fetuses revealed cysts derived from all nephron segments with multilayered epithelia and dysplastic regions, accompanied by a marked increase in the expression of beta-catenin and E-cadherin.
1336 16801329 A significant proportion of cysts still expressed the cystic renal disease proteins, polycystin-1, polycystin-2, fibrocystin and uromodulin, implying that cyst formation may result from a deregulation of cell-cell adhesion and/or the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway.
1337 16801329 Both fetuses exhibited a severe pancreatic hypoplasia with underdeveloped and disorganized acini, together with an absence of ventral pancreatic-derived tissue. beta-catenin and E-cadherin were strongly downregulated in the exocrine and endocrine compartments, and the islets lacked the transporter essential for glucose-sensing GLUT2, indicating a beta-cell maturation defect.
1338 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.
1339 16895803 The diabetogenic agent alloxan is selectively accumulated in insulin-producing cells through uptake via the GLUT2 glucose transporter in the plasma membrane.
1340 16895803 Thus, while superoxide dismutase (SOD) only reduced the toxicity, catalase, in particular in the presence of SOD, provided complete protection of insulin-producing cells against the cytotoxic action of alloxan and dialuric acid due to H(2)O(2) destruction and the prevention of hydroxyl radical ((*)OH) formation, indicating that it is the hydroxyl radical ((*)OH) which is the ROS ultimately responsible for cell death.
1341 16936190 Islets exposed to sirolimus for 24 h in culture displayed significantly diminished glucose-stimulated insulin release, coinciding with decreased pancreas duodenum homeobox-1 and GLUT2 expression in cultured islets.
1342 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.
1343 16968152 Glucagon-like peptide-1 differentiation of primate embryonic stem cells into insulin-producing cells.
1344 16968152 The present study was performed to determine whether glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) stimulates differentiation of nestin-selected embryonic stem cells into insulin-producing cells.
1345 16968152 These cells differentiated into insulin-producing cells after addition of GLP-1.
1346 16968152 These nestin-positive cell-derived ICCs expressed numerous beta-cell lineage genes, including insulin; Glut-2; pancreatic duodenal homebox-1 protein (PDX-1); islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP); neurogenin 3 (ngn3); and alpha, gamma, and delta cell gene markers.
1347 16968152 In addition, ICCs were characterized by coexpression of nestin/insulin and nestin/PDX-1.
1348 16968152 The levels of pancreas-related gene and protein expression and insulin secretion in the GLP-1 group were stronger than those in the normal controls.
1349 16968152 GLP-1 has been shown to be involved in stimulating the signaling pathways downstream of the transcription factor PDX-1, by increasing its protein and messenger RNA levels.
1350 16968152 We concluded that GLP-1 induced differentiation of nestin-positive progenitor embryonic stem cells into insulin-producing cells, which was achieved by upregulation of PDX-1 expression.
1351 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.
1352 17065357 Polymorphisms in three genes, glucose transporter 2 (SLC2A2), kininogen (KNG1), and adiponectin (ADIPOQ), showed nominal association with diabetic nephropathy in single-point analysis.

1354 17148757 Understanding neonatal beta-cell physiology and maturation contributes toward a better comprehension of type 2 diabetes physiopathology, where alterations in beta-cells include diminished L-type Ca(2+) channels and GLUT2 expression that results in an insufficient insulin secretion.

1357 17172639 We tested whether the dominant intestinal sugar transporter GLUT2 was inhibited by intestinal luminal compounds that are inefficiently absorbed and naturally present in foods.
1358 17172639 The two other major intestinal sugar transporters, GLUT5 and SGLT1, were unaffected by flavonoids.
1359 17179917 The facilitative glucose transporter, GLUT-2, and glucose phosphorylating enzyme, glucokinase, are key for glucose sensing of the pancreatic beta-cell, the initial event in the pathway for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

1368 17192469 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma regulates expression of PDX-1 and NKX6.1 in INS-1 cells.
1369 17192469 We studied isolated islets and pancreas sections from 14-day post-Px versus sham-operated rats and observed a doubling of beta-cell nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma protein, along with a 2-fold increase in nuclear pancreatic duodenal homeobox (Pdx)-1 protein and a 1.4-fold increase in beta-cell nuclear Nkx6.1 immunostaining.
1370 17192469 A 3-day incubation with the PPAR-gamma agonist troglitazone reduced proliferation and increased Pdx-1 and Nkx6.1 immunostaining, along with glucokinase and GLUT2.
1371 17192469 Also, a 75% knockdown of PPAR-gamma using RNA interference lowered the mRNA levels of Pdx-1, glucokinase, GLUT2, and proinsulin II by more than half.
1372 17192469 Our results show a dual effect of PPAR-gamma in INS-1 cells: to curtail proliferation and promote maturation, the latter via enhanced expression of Pdx-1 and Nkx6.1.

1378 17192490 In the combined data, we replicated association (P < 0.05) for 12 SNPs: PPARG Pro12Ala and His447, KCNJ11 Glu23Lys and rs5210, TNF -857, SLC2A2 Ile110Thr, HNF1A/TCF1 rs2701175 and GE117881_360, PCK1 -232, NEUROD1 Thr45Ala, IL6 -598, and ENPP1 Lys121Gln.
1379 17204838 Insulin but not phlorizin treatment induces a transient increase in GLUT2 gene expression in the kidney of diabetic rats.
1380 17226789 Generation of insulin-producing cells from PDX-1 gene-modified human mesenchymal stem cells.
1381 17226789 Here, we show that human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) could be induced to differentiate into functional insulin-producing cells by introduction of the pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1).
1382 17226789 After being infected with Ad-PDX-1, hMSCs were successfully induced to differentiate into insulin-secreting cells.
1383 17226789 The differentiated PDX-1+ hMSCs expressed multiple islet-cell genes including neurogenin3 (Ngn3), insulin, GK, Glut2, and glucagon, produced and released insulin/C-peptide in a weak glucose-regulated manner.
1384 17299398 In this study, we genetically engineered an enteroendocrine cell line (STC-1) to express insulin under the control of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide promoter.
1385 17299398 Gi-INS-7 cells expressed glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) and glucokinase (GK) and secreted insulin in response to elevated glucose levels in vitro.
1386 17303800 We provide evidence that mouse beta-cells can undergo dedifferentiation in vitro into an insulin-, pdx1-, and glut2-negative state.
1387 17456846 Using this transgenic approach, we have determined that the Nkx2.2-repressor derivative disrupts endogenous Nkx2.2 expression in adult mice and causes downregulation of the mature beta-cell factors, MafA and Glut2.
1388 17456846 Consistently, the Nkx2.2-repressor mice display reduced insulin gene expression and pancreatic insulin content and impaired insulin secretion.
1389 17460896 The epithelial cells expressed PDX-1, PCNA, CK-7, CK-19, Nestin, Glut2, and Vimentin, but Insulin was undetected.
1390 17460896 The cells expressed CD29, CD44, and CD166, but did not express CD11a, CD14, CD34, CD45, CD90, CD105, and CD117.
1391 17467845 In real-time RT-PCR, PDX-1, insulin, GLUT2 and prohormone convertase 1/3 gene expression in islets was markedly lower in old rats (33%, 13%, 20% and 34%, respectively) and old mice (56%, 42%, 28% and 22%, respectively) compared with young animals.
1392 17467845 On the other hand, genes not specifically related to beta cell-specific function, such as caspase 3, superoxide dismutase 2 and glycerol kinase were not significantly different in expression in islets according to age.
1393 17467845 In conclusion, with increasing age, insulin secretory function of islets deteriorates accompanied with a decrease in expression of beta cell-specific genes including PDX-1.
1394 17473455 Next, in order to investigate the action mechanism besides the glycemic control action of insulin, the expression of glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) protein, which is involved in glucose uptake and release in the liver, was investigated.
1395 17473455 Therefore, irrespective of the structural changes in pancreatic beta-cells due to STZ, HJ increased insulin production and secretion by the pancreas and significantly suppressed GLUT2 synthesis in the liver.
1396 17473455 Therefore, the effects of HJ on STZ-induced hyperglycemia in rats could be summarized as follows: besides increasing insulin synthesis and release, HJ normalizes GLUT2 protein expression in the liver to suppress hyperglycemia.

1403 17495045 T2R bitter and T1R sweet taste receptors are coupled through G-proteins, alpha-gustducin and transducin, to activate phospholipase C beta2 and increase intracellular calcium concentration.
1404 17495045 Western blotting and immunocytochemistry revealed that all T1R members are expressed in rat jejunum at strategic locations including Paneth cells, SCCs or the apical membrane of enterocytes; T1Rs are colocalized with each other and with alpha-gustducin, transducin or phospholipase C beta2 to different extents.
1405 17495045 Stimulation occurs within minutes by an increase in apical GLUT2, which correlates with reciprocal regulation of T1R2, T1R3 and alpha-gustducin versus T1R1, transducin and phospholipase C beta2.
1406 17653207 The proximal tubule environment is where 90% of the filtered glucose is reabsorbed by the low-affinity/high-capacity Na(+)/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) and facilitated diffusion glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2).
1407 17653207 Angiotensin II (ANG II) plays an important role in its development through epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) transactivation.
1408 17653207 Therefore, a combination of high glucose, ANG II, and EGF are involved in diabetic-like nephropathy by regulating the SGLT activity.
1409 17694297 GLUT2 protein at the rat proximal tubule brush border membrane correlates with protein kinase C (PKC)-betal and plasma glucose concentration.
1410 17712721 Circadian and age-dependent expression patterns of GLUT2 and glucokinase in the pancreatic beta-cell of diabetic and nondiabetic rats.
1411 17712721 The de-compensation of the metabolic situation in 42-week-old Goto-Kakizaki rats is likely to be caused by beta-cell destruction accompanied by negligible accumulation of GLUT2 in the cell membrane and further reduction of glucokinase expression.
1412 17712721 Circadian and age-dependent expression patterns of GLUT2 and glucokinase in the pancreatic beta-cell of diabetic and nondiabetic rats.
1413 17712721 The de-compensation of the metabolic situation in 42-week-old Goto-Kakizaki rats is likely to be caused by beta-cell destruction accompanied by negligible accumulation of GLUT2 in the cell membrane and further reduction of glucokinase expression.
1414 17891462 Pancreata from female NOD mice at diagnosis and at 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks thereafter were analysed immunohistochemically for insulin, glucagon and somatostatin cells and glucose transporter-2 (glut2) and correlated with the degree of insulitis and islet immune cell phenotypes.
1415 17891462 During this period, beta cells also declined sharply whereas glucagon and somatostatin cells increased, with occasional islet cells co-expressing insulin and glucagon.
1416 17891462 Glut2 was absent in insulin-containing cells from 1 week onwards.
1417 17891462 CD4 and CD8 T cells and macrophages persisted until 4 weeks, in islets with residual beta cells or extensive insulitis.
1418 17938503 PDX-1 and MafA play a crucial role in pancreatic beta-cell differentiation and maintenance of mature beta-cell function.
1419 17938503 In mature beta-cells, PDX-1 transactivates the insulin and other genes involved in glucose sensing and metabolism such as GLUT2 and glucokinase.
1420 17938503 MafA is a recently isolated beta-cell-specific transcription factor which functions as a potent activator of insulin gene transcription.
1421 17938503 On the other hand, under diabetic conditions, expression and/or activities of PDX-1 and MafA in beta-cells are reduced, which leads to suppression of insulin biosynthesis and secretion.
1422 17947353 The expression of the rat intestinal fructose transporter GLUT5 [Slc2A5, a member of the glucose transporter family (GLUT)] can be specifically induced by its substrate fructose, but only after weaning begins at 14 d of age.
1423 17947353 When dexamethasone was injected into suckling pups before fructose perfusion, the expression of GLUT5 but not that of the sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 1 and of GLUT2, as well as the uptake of fructose but not of glucose increased dramatically.
1424 17950394 Pancreatic beta-cells mainly contain GLUT1 and GLUT2 glucose transporters.
1425 18057092 Insulin internalizes GLUT2 in the enterocytes of healthy but not insulin-resistant mice.
1426 18338074 In mature beta-cells, PDX-1 transactivates insulin and other beta-cell-related genes such as GLUT2 and glucokinase.
1427 18338074 Furthermore, PDX-1 plays an important role in the induction of insulin-producing cells in various non-beta-cells and is thereby a possible therapeutic target for diabetes.
1428 18338074 On the other hand, under diabetic conditions, expression and/or activity of PDX-1 in beta-cells is reduced, which leads to suppression of insulin biosynthesis and secretion.
1429 18393659 These include regulation by a newly recognized pathway of calcium absorption through the nonclassical neuroendocrine l-type channel Cav1.3 operating during digestion, activation of intestinal sweet taste receptors by natural sugars and artificial sweeteners, paracrine and endocrine hormones, especially insulin and GLP-2, and stress.
1430 18393659 Permanent apical GLUT2, resulting in increased sugar absorption, is a characteristic of experimental diabetes and of insulin-resistant states induced by fructose and fat.
1431 18393672 Detection of transketolase in bone marrow-derived insulin-producing cells: benfotiamine enhances insulin synthesis and glucose metabolism.
1432 18393672 Benfotiamine was not shown to induce the glucose receptor Glut-2, however it was shown to activate glucokinase, the enzyme responsible for conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate.
1433 18393672 However, in cells where the pentose phosphate pathway was blocked by oxythiamine treatment, there was a clear downregulation of Glut-2, glucokinase, insulin, and GAPDH.

1437 18497871 Human islet amyloid polypeptide transgenic mice: in vivo and ex vivo models for the role of hIAPP in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
1438 18497871 Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP), a pancreatic islet protein of 37 amino acids, is the main component of islet amyloid, seen at autopsy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2).
1439 18497871 To investigate the roles of hIAPP and islet amyloid in DM2, we generated transgenic mice expressing hIAPP in their islet beta cells.
1440 18497871 In this study, we found that after a long-term, high-fat diet challenge islet amyloid was observed in only 4 of 19 hIAPP transgenic mice. hIAPP transgenic females exhibited severe glucose intolerance, which was associated with a downregulation of GLUT-2 mRNA expression.
1441 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.
1442 18640586 The glucose transporter GLUT2 and the K-ATP dependent channel, as well as regulatory mechanisms, involved the central nervous system and the gut-brain hormone GLP-1.
1443 19002958 Transfection of cDNAs for the key elements of the glucose sensing apparatus (GLUT2 and glucokinase) led to a subphysiological stimulation of secretion when glucokinase was transfected alone while there was a complete loss of insulin secretion when both components were overexpressed.
1444 19095744 Maturation of adult beta-cells revealed using a Pdx1/insulin dual-reporter lentivirus.
1445 19095744 This study examined the dynamics and heterogeneity of insulin and pancreatic duodenal homeobox (Pdx)-1 gene expression in adult beta-cells.
1446 19095744 Insulin and Pdx1 expression were monitored in human and mouse islet cells and MIN6 cells using a Pdx1-monomeric red fluorescent protein/insulin-enhanced green fluorescent protein dual-reporter lentivirus.
1447 19095744 Cells expressing Pdx1 but little or no insulin (Pdx1(+)/Ins(low)) comprised 15-25% of the total population.
1448 19095744 Genes involved in the mature beta-cell phenotype (Glut2, MafA) were expressed at higher levels in Pdx1(+)/Ins(+) cells relative to Pdx1(+)/Ins(low) cells.
1449 19095744 Conversely, genes implicated in early beta-cell development (MafB, Nkx2.2) were enriched in Pdx1(+)/Ins(low) cells.
1450 19095744 Sorted Pdx1(+)/Ins(low) MIN6 cells had a higher replication rate and secreted less insulin relative to double-positive cells.
1451 19095744 These results demonstrate that adult beta-cells pass through distinct maturation states, which is consistent with previously observed heterogeneity in insulin and Pdx1 expression in adult beta-cells.
1452 19095744 The maturation of adult beta-cells recapitulates development in that Pdx1 expression precedes the robust expression of insulin and other mature beta-cell genes.

1454 19099149 Diabetes in spontaneously hypertensive rats is associated with cortical renal GLUT1 and GLUT2 overexpression.
1455 19099149 Our objective was to evaluate the effect of the angiotensin-converting enzyme blockade on cortical renal GLUT1 and GLUT2 expression, urinary albumin and urinary TGF-beta1.

1477 19168505 At day 14, IHBECs were transfected with adenoviral (Ad)- pancreas duodenum homeobox 1 (Pdx-1), NeuroD or Pdx-1/VP16.
1478 19168505 In DM control IHBECs started to express some endocrine progenitor genes (Neurog3, NeuroD, Nkx6.1, and Pdx-1) but lacked insulin gene (Ins) mRNA.
1479 19168505 Transduced expression of PDX-1, NEUROD or PDX-1/VP16 led to expression of not only INS but also GLUT2 and prohormone convertase 1 and 2.
1480 19168505 Transduced cells released insulin (Ad-PDX-1 0.08+/-0.05, Ad-NEUROD 0.33+/-0.09, Ad-PDX-1/VP16 0.37+/-0.14 ng/1x10(5) cells after 48 h in culture).
1481 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.
1482 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.
1483 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.
1484 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.

1489 19336222 A novel frameshift mutation attributable to 14-nucleotide insertion in hepatocyte nuclear factor-1alpha (HNF-1alpha) encoding a truncated HNF-1alpha (G554fsX556) with 76-amino acid deletion at its carboxyl terminus was identified in a Thai family with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).
1490 19336222 The wild-type and mutant HNF-1alpha could similarly bind to human glucose-transporter 2 (GLUT2) promoter examined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA).
1491 19336222 However, the transactivation activities of mutant HNF-1alpha on human GLUT2 and rat L-type pyruvate kinase (L-PK) promoters in HeLa cells determined by luciferase reporter assay were reduced to approximately 55-60% of the wild-type protein.
1492 19336222 These results suggested that the functional defect of novel truncated HNF-1alpha (G554fsX556) on the transactivation of its target-gene promoters would account for the beta-cell dysfunction associated with the pathogenesis of MODY.

1498 19379129 We identified a population of PaSCs that express the ABCG2+ transporter and have the capacity to transdifferentiate into insulin-producing cells.

1561 19615701 Castration elevated the blood glucose level, which was accompanied by inhibitory effect on serum insulin, Akt phosphorylation, GLUT4 expression and its plasma membrane population, glucose uptake, glycogen and glycogen synthase activity, and stimulatory effect on GLUT2 expression and glycogen phosphorylase activity in tissues studied.
1562 19615701 It is concluded from the present study that sex steroids deficiency-induced defective glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue is mediated through defective Akt phosphorylation and GLUT4 expression in plasma membrane.

1577 20060466 The bile acid sensor FXR regulates insulin transcription and secretion.
1578 20060466 Here we investigated whether FXR is expressed by pancreatic beta-cells and regulates insulin signaling in pancreatic beta-cell line and human islets.
1579 20060466 We found that FXR activation induces positive regulatory effects on glucose-induced insulin transcription and secretion by genomic and non-genomic activities.
1580 20060466 Indeed, results from silencing experiments of KLF11 demonstrate that this transcription factor is essential for FXR activity on glucose-induced insulin gene transcription.
1581 20060466 In addition FXR regulates insulin secretion by non-genomic effects.
1582 20060466 Thus, activation of FXR in betaTC6 cells increases Akt phosphorylation and translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT2 at plasma membrane, increasing the glucose uptake by these cells.
1583 20060466 In vivo experiments on Non Obese Diabetic (NOD) mice demonstrated that FXR activation delays development of signs of diabetes, hyperglycemia and glycosuria, by enhancing insulin secretion and by stimulating glucose uptake by the liver.

1590 20158571 MafA promotes the reprogramming of placenta-derived multipotent stem cells into pancreatic islets-like and insulin+ cells.
1591 20158571 MafA is a pancreatic transcriptional factor that controls β-cell-specific transcription of the insulin gene.
1592 20158571 In this study, we investigate the role of MafA in placenta-derived multipotent stem cells (PDMSCs) that constitutively expressed Oct-4 and Nanog.
1593 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).
1594 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.
1595 20158571 The glucose-stimulated responses to insulin and c-peptide production in MafA-overexpressing PDMSCs were significantly higher than in PDMSCs with vector control.
1596 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.
1597 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.

1611 20354156 LKB1 deletion with the RIP2.Cre transgene modifies pancreatic beta-cell morphology and enhances insulin secretion in vivo.
1612 20354156 LKB1 phosphorylates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and several related protein kinases.
1613 20354156 Whereas deletion of both catalytic isoforms of AMPK from the pancreatic beta-cell and hypothalamic neurons using the rat insulin promoter (RIP2).Cre transgene (betaAMPKdKO) diminishes insulin secretion in vivo, deletion of LKB1 in the beta-cell with an inducible Pdx-1.CreER transgene enhances insulin secretion in mice.
1614 20354156 In contrast to Pdx1-CreER-mediated deletion, the expression of Glut2, glucose-induced changes in membrane potential and intracellular Ca(2+) were sharply reduced in betaLKB1KO mouse islets and the stimulation of insulin secretion was modestly inhibited.
1615 20354156 We conclude that LKB1 and AMPK play distinct roles in the control of insulin secretion and that the timing of LKB1 deletion, and/or its loss from extrapancreatic sites, influences the final impact on beta-cell function.
1616 20506299 PTP1B deficiency enhances liver growth during suckling by increasing the expression of insulin-like growth factor-I.
1617 20506299 Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a negative regulator of insulin and tyrosine kinase growth factor signaling.
1618 20506299 We have recently demonstrated that PTP1B deficiency increases GLUT2/insulin receptor (IR) A complexes and glucose uptake in suckling, but not adult, primary hepatocytes.
1619 20506299 Conversely, the activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), the rate limiting enzyme of the pentose phosphate cycle (PPC) which provides substrates for DNA synthesis, was enhanced in the liver of PTP1B(-/-) animals.
1620 20506299 At the molecular level, STAT 5B phosphorylation, IGF-I mRNA, and protein levels as well as IGF-IR tyrosine phosphorylation were increased in the livers of PTP1B-deficient neonates.

1633 20823566 COS increased liver glucokinase activity and glycogen content and upregulated the expressions of GLUT-4 mRNA in adipose and soleus muscle.
1634 20823566 It was found that COS played important roles in INS-1 cells by promoting proliferation, increasing glucose stimulated insulin release, upregulating the expressions of GLUT-2 mRNA and protecting against STZ-induced apoptosis.
1635 20855446 We successfully isolated EMSCs from human endometrium, and our results showed that EMSCs expressed high levels of stemness genes (Nanog, Oct-4, Nestin).

1637 20855893 Here we show that chronic ethanol feeding decreases the ability of pancreatic β-cells to mediate insulin secretion and ATP production in coordination with the decrease of glucokinase, Glut2, and insulin expression.
1638 20855893 Specific blockade of ATF3 using siRNA or C-terminally deleted ATF3(ΔC) attenuated ethanol-induced pancreatic β-cell apoptosis or dysfunction and restored the down-regulation of glucokinase (GCK), insulin, and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 induced by ethanol.
1639 20855893 Peroxynitrite-induced ATF3 may also serve as a potent upstream regulator of GCK down-regulation and β-cell apoptosis.

1642 21082287 Using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to analyze the expression of functional genes, the result showed that Nestin, Pdx-1, Ngn3, Ils-1, Pax6, Pax4, Nkx2.2, Nkx6.1, Glut-2, Insulin genes expressed.
1643 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).

1645 21242957 We generated β-cell-specific VHL-knockout mice using the Cre-loxP recombination system driven by the rat insulin promoter to assess the role of VHL in glucose homeostasis and β-cell function.
1646 21242957 VHL deletion in the pancreatic β-cells led to impaired glucose tolerance due to defects in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and β-cell mass with age.
1647 21242957 VHL-knockout islets had decreased GLUT2, but increased glucose transporter 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor expression.
1648 21242957 Given that erythropoietin (EPO) is a target gene of the HIF pathway, which is not expressed in islets, we tested whether activating EPO signaling by systemic administration with recombinant human EPO (rHuEPO) can overcome the β-cell defects that occurred with VHL loss.
1649 21242957 We observed improved glucose tolerance and restoration of GLUT2 expression in VHL-deficient β-cells in response to rHuEPO.
1650 21242957 Contrary to our hypothesis, loss of VHL and increased transcription of HIF-target genes resulted in impaired β-cell function and mass, which can be overcome with exogenous EPO.

1678 22065862 Normalizing action of exendin-4 and GLP-1 in the glucose metabolism of extrapancreatic tissues in insulin-resistant and type 2 diabetic states.
1679 22065862 We studied the characteristics of Ex-4 and GLP-1 action, during prolonged treatment, on GLUTs expression (mRNA and protein), glycogen content (GC), glucose transport (GT), glycogen synthase a (GSa), and kinase (PI3K and MAPKs) activity, in liver, muscle, and fat of insulin-resistant (IR, by fructose) and type 2 diabetic (T2D, streptozotocin at birth) rats compared with normal rats.
1680 22065862 In liver, GLP-1 and also Ex-4 normalized the lower than normal Glut2 (Slc2a2) expression and showed a trend to normalize the reduced GC in IR, and GLP-1, like Ex-4, also in T2D, effects mediated by PI3K and MAPKs.
1681 22065862 In skeletal muscle, neither GLP-1 nor Ex-4 modified Glut4 (Slc2a4) expression in either experimental model but showed normalization of reduced GT and GSa, in parallel with the normalization of reduced PI3K activity in T2D and MAPKs in both models.
1682 22065862 In adipose tissue, the altered GLUT4 expression in IR and T2D, along with reduced GT in IR and increased GT in T2D, and with hyperactivated PI3K in both, became normal after GLP-1 and Ex-4 treatment; yet, MAPKs, that were also higher, became normal only after Ex-4 treatment.
1683 22249339 Consequently, we evaluated the viability, the induction of apoptosis, the glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and the expression of β-cell function genes (Isl1, Pax6, Glut-2, glucokinase) and apoptosis-related genes (Bax and Bcl2). βTC-1, βTC-6, and human islets treated, respectively, for 48 and 72 h with 15-30 nM MPA showed altered islet architecture, as compared with control cells.
1684 22249339 Furthermore, we showed significant down-regulation of gene expression of molecules involved in β-cell function and increase rate between Bax/Bcl2.
1685 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).
1686 22362176 HS+MES treatment or HSP72 overexpression increased HSP72 protein levels and decreased tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and proapoptotic signal in MIN6 cells.
1687 22362176 Compared with sham treatment, levels of HSP72, insulin, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1, GLUT2, and insulin receptor substrate-2 were upregulated in the pancreatic islets of HS+MES-treated mice, whereas JNK phosphorylation, nuclear translocation of forkhead box class O-1, and nuclear factor-κB p65 were reduced.
1688 22362176 Thus, HSP72 induction by HS+MES treatment protects β-cells from apoptosis by attenuating JNK activation and cell stresses.
1689 22393382 Interestingly, they maintained expression of β-cell specific markers, such as PDX1, NKX6.1, GLUT2 and insulin.
1690 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.
1691 22393382 Among them, SUMO4, a negative feedback regulator in NF-kB and JAK/STAT signaling pathways, resulted hyper-expressed.
1692 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.
1693 22399922 In these cells, solute carrier family 2 (SLC2A2) and glucokinase play a key role in sensing and uptaking glucose.
1694 22403172 Through candidate gene approach, we confirmed that Pax6 controls the mRNA levels of the insulin 1 and 2, Pdx1, MafA, GLUT2, and PC1/3 genes in β-cells.
1695 22403172 Importantly, we identified new Pax6 target genes coding for GK, Nkx6.1, cMaf, PC2, GLP-1R and GIPR which are all involved in β-cell function.
1696 22427375 The decreased β-cell replication was associated with reductions in islet prolactin receptor levels, STAT5 nuclear localization and forkhead box M1 mRNA, and upregulation of p27.
1697 22427375 PancMet KO mouse islets failed to upregulate GLUT2 and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 mRNA, insulin content, and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion during gestation.
1698 22436693 Compared with CC, pre- and postnatal LP (RR) decreased β-cell fraction, mass, proliferation, aggregate size, and number and increased Hnf1a, Hnf4a, Pdx1, Isl1, Rfx6, and Slc2a2 mRNA levels.
1699 22436693 LP only in pregnancy (RC) also decreased β-cell fraction, mass, proliferation, aggregate size, and number and increased Hnf1a, Hnf4a, Pdx1, Rfx6, and Ins mRNA levels.

1704 22466807 Activation of PPARδ up-regulates the expression of insulin gene transcription factor MafA and ameliorates glucose-induced insulin secretion impaired by palmitate.
1705 22466807 MafA is a β-cell-specific and glucose-regulated transcriptional activator for insulin gene expression and plays a crucial role in pancreas development, β-cell differentiation as well as maintenance of β-cell function.
1706 22466807 However, little is known about how PPARδ regulates MafA and ameliorates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion impaired by free fatty acids (FFA).
1707 22466807 The expression of MafA, glucose transportor-2 (GLUT2), and insulin was found to be up-regulated in cells treated with GW501516.
1708 22466807 Finally, analysis of the level of JNK phosphorylation revealed that activated PPARδ could inhibit the activation of JNK and increase the expression of MafA.
1709 22466807 Collectively, these results demonstrate that activation of PPARδ improves insulin secretion impaired by palmitate and plays a role in the JNK-MafA-GLUT2 pathway.
1710 22492527 Variants near TCF7L2 and ADRA2A were associated with reduced glucose-induced insulin secretion, whereas susceptibility variants near ADRA2A, KCNJ11, KCNQ1, and TCF7L2 were associated with reduced depolarization-evoked insulin exocytosis.
1711 22492527 KCNQ1, ADRA2A, KCNJ11, HHEX/IDE, and SLC2A2 variants affected granule docking.
1712 22579212 Continuous treatment with 5mg/kg borapetoside C (twice daily) for 7 days increased phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR) and protein kinase B (Akt) as well as the expression of glucose transporter-2 (GLUT2) in T1DM mice.

1716 22619373 STZ is transported into B-cells via the glucose transporter GLUT2 and causes DNA damage leading to increased activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1) to repair DNA.
1717 22619373 The protective action of NA is due to the inhibition of PARP-1 activity.
1718 22649556 Topiramate, on the hepatic molecular level, has opposed the high fat/high fructose diet effect, where it significantly increased adiponectin receptors, GLUT2, and tyrosine kinase activity, while decreased insulin receptor isoforms.
1719 22649556 The study proved that insulin-resistance has an effect on hepatic molecular level and that the topiramate-mediated insulin sensitivity is ensued partly by modulation of hepatic insulin receptor isoforms, activation of tyrosine kinase, induction of GLUT2 and elevation of adiponectin receptors, as well as their ligand, adiponectin, besides its known improving effect on glucose tolerance and lipid homeostasis.

1722 22660720 SLC2A2 mutations can cause neonatal diabetes, suggesting GLUT2 may have a role in human insulin secretion.
1723 22689208 Moreover, we examined the short term effects of a single injection of streptozotocin, a toxin for GLUT2 expressing cells, in rats on insulin expression of tendon cells, and on the biomechanical properties of Achilles tendons.
1724 22689208 Tendon cells, both in the perivascular area and in the dense collagenous tissue express insulin and Glut2 on both protein and mRNA levels.
1725 22689208 Moreover, we examined the short term effects of a single injection of streptozotocin, a toxin for GLUT2 expressing cells, in rats on insulin expression of tendon cells, and on the biomechanical properties of Achilles tendons.

1727 22803686 Among the glucose metabolism regulating genes evaluated, hepatic glucokinase (GCK), the glucose transporters GLUT2 and GLUT4, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) were up-regulated, whereas glucose-6-phosphatase (G6 Pase) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) were down-regulated in the liver of mice with RHSE-supplementation.
1728 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.
1729 22902430 IL-1β and Fas levels were also reduced in scaffold-embedded islets.
1730 22902430 Moreover, culture in CM and FPCM (but not 2D) preserved insulin, GLUT-2, and PDX-1 mRNA expression.
1731 22902430 FPCM-embedded islets had significantly higher insulin response and lower amyloid formation than CM-embedded islets.
1732 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).
1733 22984506 We genotyped previously reported polymorphisms (or their proxies) in/near G6PC2, MTNR1B, GCK, DGKB, GCKR, ADCY5, MADD, CRY2, ADRA2A, FADS1, PROX1, SLC2A2, GLIS3, C2CD4B, IGF1, and IRS1 in 3,548 Diabetes Prevention Program participants.
1734 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.
1735 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.
1736 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.
1737 23022408 We also found that AK treatment reduced the production of inflammatory factors, such as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β.
1738 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.
1739 23071091 PERK excision triggered intracellular accumulation of proinsulin and Glut2, massive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) expansion, and compensatory activation of the remaining unfolded-protein response (UPR) signaling pathways specifically in pancreatic tissue.
1740 23085254 Our results showed that with the development of a liver GCK deficiency, significant decreases in the mRNA levels for insulin receptor and Glut2 were observed in the liver, and HkII in muscle, while glucagon mRNA increased markedly in the pancreas.
1741 23132673 The authors investigated 23 single nucleotide polymorphisms among 9 genes (ADRB3, ENPP1, FTO, LEP, PPARG, PPARGC1A, SLC2A2, TCF7L2, and UCP2) associated with type 2 diabetes or obesity.
1742 23132673 Additionally, maternal LEP rs2071045 (RR = 1.31, 95% CI: 1.08, 1.60) and offspring UCP2 rs660339 (RR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.64) were associated with NTD risk.
1743 23153982 Mechanisms and techniques of reprogramming: using PDX-1 homeobox protein as a novel treatment of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.
1744 23153982 Pancreatic Duodenal Homeobox-1 (PDX-1) is a homeobox protein which acts as a key regulator in the development of b cells in the Islets of Langerhans.
1745 23153982 There is strong evidence that PDX-1 plays a role in activating the insulin promoter and increasing insulin levels in response to glucose.
1746 23153982 PDX-1 also binds to sequences within β cells and regulates the promoter activity of a number of islet genes including insulin, glut-2 and neurogenin 3.
1747 23153982 When fused with the VP16 activation sequence, transfection of the PDX-1 gene has been shown to transform liver cells into insulin producing cells.
1748 23180627 Once produced in the gut by digestion, glucose is absorbed by SGLT1 and GLUT2 transporters, inhibited by flavonols and flavonol glycosides, phlorizin and green tea catechins.
1749 23193182 Islet α-, β-, and δ-cell development is controlled by the Ldb1 coregulator, acting primarily with the islet-1 transcription factor.
1750 23193182 Ldb1 and Ldb2 are coregulators that mediate Lin11-Isl1-Mec3 (LIM)-homeodomain (HD) and LIM-only transcription factor-driven gene regulation.
1751 23193182 Although both Ldb1 and Ldb2 mRNA were produced in the developing and adult pancreas, immunohistochemical analysis illustrated a broad Ldb1 protein expression pattern during early pancreatogenesis, which subsequently became enriched in islet and ductal cells perinatally.
1752 23193182 The islet-enriched pattern of Ldb1 was similar to pan-endocrine cell-expressed Islet-1 (Isl1), which was demonstrated in this study to be the primary LIM-HD transcription factor in developing and adult islet cells.
1753 23193182 Endocrine cell-specific removal of Ldb1 during mouse development resulted in a severe reduction of hormone⁺ cell numbers (i.e., α, β, and δ) and overt postnatal hyperglycemia, reminiscent of the phenotype described for the Isl1 conditional mutant.
1754 23193182 Gene expression and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analyses demonstrated that many important Isl1-activated genes were coregulated by Ldb1, including MafA, Arx, insulin, and Glp1r.
1755 23193182 However, some genes (i.e., Hb9 and Glut2) only appeared to be impacted by Ldb1 during development.
1756 23193182 These findings establish Ldb1 as a critical transcriptional coregulator during islet α-, β-, and δ-cell development through Isl1-dependent and potentially Isl1-independent control.
1757 23271274 Furthermore, RT-PCR results confirmed the expression of insulin, PDX1, Ngn3, PAX4, and GLUT2 in differentiated cells.
1758 23326534 The results show that H(2) promoted 2-[(14)C]-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DG) uptake into C2C12 cells via the translocation of glucose transporter Glut4 through activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase (PI3K), protein kinase C (PKC), and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), although it did not stimulate the translocation of Glut2 in Hep G2 cells.

1778 23423722 The extract did not induce any further decrease in jejunal glucose uptake in the simultaneous presence of phloridzin and phloretin, respective inhibitors of SGLT1 and GLUT2 transporters nor did it induce a change in the protein expression of SGLT1 and GLUT2.
1779 23423722 It was concluded that the extract acts by reducing the Na(+)/K(+) ATPase activity of enterocytes and consequently the sodium gradient required for sugar transport by SGLT1, which leads to down-regulation of GLUT2 and contributes to the observed anti-hyperglycemic effect.

1783 23548572 We previously reported that GnT-IVa glycosyltransferase is required for the production of an N-glycan structure that acts as a ligand for galectins to form the glycan-galectin lattice that maintains the stable cell surface expression of GLUT2, and cellular glucose transport activity, although the functional relevance of the N-glycosylation of GLUT2 to its membrane sub-domain distribution is not fully understood.

1786 23548572 Moreover, disruption of the lipid-raft microdomain by treatment with methyl-β-cyclodextrin caused the GLUT2 to be released from lipid-rafts and reactivation of the cellular glucose transport activity in GnT-IVa deficient beta cells.
1787 23548572 These results indicate that the membrane sub-domain distribution of GLUT2 is associated with the glucose transport activity of beta cells, in which the GnT-IVa-dependent formation of the N-glycan-galectin lattice plays an important role.

1829 23586830 PDX1 and insulin were detected at the protein level by immunofluorescence analysis.
1830 23586830 PDX1 could trigger a gene expression cascade that involved pancreatic endocrine differentiation and also revealed the glucose sensing ability by expressing Glut2 in high-glucose medium.

1837 23610061 Pax6 is an essential regulator of β-cell-specific factors like insulin and Glut2.
1838 23610061 Here, we show that Mitf, like Pax6, is expressed in all pancreatic endocrine cells during mouse postnatal development and in the adult islet.
1839 23610061 A Mitf loss-of-function mutation results in improved glucose tolerance and enhanced insulin secretion but no increase in β-cell mass in adult mice.
1840 23610061 Mutant β-cells secrete more insulin in response to glucose than wild-type cells, suggesting that Mitf is involved in regulating β-cell function.
1841 23610061 In fact, the transcription of genes critical for maintaining glucose homeostasis (insulin and Glut2) and β-cell formation and function (Pax4 and Pax6) is significantly upregulated in Mitf mutant islets.
1842 23610061 The increased Pax6 expression may cause the improved β-cell function observed in Mitf mutant animals, as it activates insulin and Glut2 transcription.
1843 23610061 Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis shows that Mitf binds to Pax4 and Pax6 regulatory regions, suggesting that Mitf represses their transcription in wild-type β-cells.

1858 23671804 The induced cells expressed multiple genes related to pancreatic beta-cell development and function, such as insulin1, glucagon, Pdx1, Pax6, and Glut-2.
1859 23675238 The study investigated the effects of maternal diets, varying in fat content, on lipid profiles and the expression of hepatic glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2) and glucokinase (GK) in neonatal Wistar rat offspring.
1860 23725211 Significant expressions of PDX1, neurogenin3 (Ngn3), glucagon, glucose transporter2 (Glut2), and somatostatin were detected by quantitative RT-PCR (P < 0.05).
1861 23725211 PDX1 and insulin proteins were shown by immunocytochemistry analysis.

1863 23737756 GLIS3, a susceptibility gene for type 1 and type 2 diabetes, modulates pancreatic beta cell apoptosis via regulation of a splice variant of the BH3-only protein Bim.
1864 23737756 GLIS3 plays a role in the generation of pancreatic beta cells and in insulin gene expression, but there is no information on the role of this gene on beta cell viability and/or susceptibility to immune- and metabolic-induced stress.
1865 23737756 GLIS3 knockdown (KD) in INS-1E cells, primary FACS-purified rat beta cells, and human islet cells decreased expression of MafA, Ins2, and Glut2 and inhibited glucose oxidation and insulin secretion, confirming the role of this transcription factor for the beta cell differentiated phenotype.
1866 23737756 GLIS3 KD increased beta cell apoptosis basally and sensitized the cells to death induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 1β + interferon-γ) or palmitate, agents that may contribute to beta cell loss in respectively type 1 and 2 diabetes.
1867 23737756 The increased cell death was due to activation of the intrinsic (mitochondrial) pathway of apoptosis, as indicated by cytochrome c release to the cytosol, Bax translocation to the mitochondria and activation of caspases 9 and 3.
1868 23737756 Analysis of the pathways implicated in beta cell apoptosis following GLIS3 KD indicated modulation of alternative splicing of the pro-apoptotic BH3-only protein Bim, favouring expression of the pro-death variant BimS via inhibition of the splicing factor SRp55.
1869 23737756 KD of Bim abrogated the pro-apoptotic effect of GLIS3 loss of function alone or in combination with cytokines or palmitate.
1870 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.
1871 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.
1872 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.
1873 23828045 At 1 week after multiple low-dose STZ administrations, pancreatic β-cells showed impaired insulin expression, while maintaining expression of nuclear Nkx6.1.
1874 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).
1875 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.
1876 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.
1877 23828045 Upon pancreatic GLP-1 expression, upregulation of Cxcl13 and Nptx2 was observed in STZ-damaged islets, but not in untreated normal islets.
1878 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.
1879 23834778 Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)-deficient mice develop glucose intolerance and hyperglycemia, but remain entirely responsive to exogenous insulin in adult age.
1880 23834778 Our results confirm that MIF-knockout (MIF-KO) mice possess higher levels of circulating corticosterone, but lower expression of glucocorticoid receptor in pancreatic islets, liver and adipose tissue to the one observed in wild type (WT) mice.
1881 23834778 A significant up-regulation of glucocorticoid receptor expression was however noticed in MIF-deficient lymph node cells.
1882 23834778 Although RU486 treatment did not alter the level of glucose receptor GLUT2, it enhanced insulin secretion and up-regulated insulin-triggered Akt phosphorylation within hepatic tissue.
1883 23834778 Our results indicate that deregulated glucocorticoid secretion and glucocorticoid receptor expression in the absence of MIF possibly contributes to the development of glucose intolerance and immunosuppression in MIF-KO mice.
1884 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.
