Abstract

AbstractThe mechanisms of impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion from the pancreatic β-cells in obesity have not yet been completely elucidated. Here, we aimed to assess the effects of adipocyte-derived factors on the functioning of pancreatic β-cells. We prepared a conditioned medium using 3T3-L1 cell culture supernatant collected at day eight (D8CM) and then exposed the rat pancreatic β-cell line, INS-1D. We found that D8CM suppressed insulin secretion in INS-1D cells due to reduced intracellular calcium levels. This was mediated by the induction of a negative regulator of insulin secretion—NECAB1. LC–MS/MS analysis results revealed that D8CM possessed steroid hormones (cortisol, corticosterone, and cortisone). INS-1D cell exposure to cortisol or corticosterone increased Necab1 mRNA expression and significantly reduced insulin secretion. The increased expression of Necab1 and reduced insulin secretion effects from exposure to these hormones were completely abolished by inhibition of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). NECAB1 expression was also increased in the pancreatic islets of db/db mice. We demonstrated that the upregulation of NECAB1 was dependent on GR activation, and that binding of the GR to the upstream regions of Necab1 was essential for this effect. NECAB1 may play a novel role in the adipoinsular axis and could be potentially involved in the pathophysiology of obesity-related diabetes mellitus.
