ABSTRACT
AIMS:
Prolonged high levels of cytokines, glucose, or free fatty acids are associated with diabetes, elevation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]C), and depletion of Ca2+ concentration in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of pancreatic beta cells. This Ca2+ imbalance induces ER stress and apoptosis. Lupenone, a lupan-type triterpenoid, is beneficial in diabetes; however, its mechanism of action is yet to be clarified. This study evaluated the protective mechanism of lupenone against thapsigargin-induced ER stress and apoptosis in pancreatic beta cells. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
MIN6, INS-1, and native mouse islet cells were used. Western blot for protein expressions, measurement of [Ca2+]C, and in vivo glucose tolerance test were mainly performed. KEYFINDINGS:
Thapsigargin increased the protein levels of cleaved caspase 3, cleaved PARP, and the phosphorylated form of JNK, ATF4, and CHOP. Thapsigargin increased the interaction between stromal interaction molecule1 (Stim1) and Orai1, enhancing store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). SOCE is further activated by protein tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2), which is Ca2+-dependent and phosphorylates the tyrosine residue at Y361 in Stim1. Lupenone inhibited thapsigargin-mediated Pyk2 activation, suppressed [Ca2+]C, ER stress, and apoptosis. Lupenone restored impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion effectuated by thapsigargin and glucose intolerance in a low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetic mouse model.SIGNIFICANCE:
These results suggested that lupenone attenuated thapsigargin-induced ER stress and apoptosis by inhibiting SOCE; this may be due to the hindrance of Pyk2-mediated Stim1 tyrosine phosphorylation. In beta cells that are inevitably exposed to frequent [Ca2+]C elevation, the attenuation of abnormally high SOCE would be beneficial for their survival.Palavras-chave
