Uncoupling protein 2 knockout mice have enhanced insulin secretory capacity after a high-fat diet.
Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) may act as an important regulator of insulin secretion. In this study, beta-cell function in UCP2-deficient mice was examined after a 45% high-fat diet (HFD) to assess its role during the development of diet-induced type 2 diabetes. HFD-fed UCP2 (-/-) mice have lower fasting blood glucose and elevated insulin levels when compared with wild-type (WT) mice. UCP2 (-/-) ...
متن کاملA human de novo mutation in MYH10 phenocopies the loss of function mutation in mice
We used whole exome sequence analysis to investigate a possible genetic etiology for a patient with the phenotype of intrauterine growth restriction, microcephaly, developmental delay, failure to thrive, congenital bilateral hip dysplasia, cerebral and cerebellar atrophy, hydrocephalus, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Whole exome sequencing identified a novel de novo c.2722G > T (p.E...
متن کاملLoss-of-function mutation of the galanin gene is associated with perturbed islet function in mice.
The neuropeptide galanin is expressed in sympathetic nerve terminals that surround islet cells and inhibits insulin secretion. To explore its role for islet function, we studied mice with a loss-of-function mutation in the galanin gene [galanin knockout (KO) mice]. Intravenous 2-deoxy-glucose, which activates both the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system, cau...
متن کاملWeight Loss Improves the Adipogenic Capacity of Human Preadipocytes and Modulates Their Secretory Profile
Calorie restriction-induced weight loss is accompanied by profound changes in adipose tissue characteristics. To determine the effect of weight loss on differentiation of preadipocytes and secretory capacity of in vitro differentiated adipocytes, we established cultures of these cells from paired subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsies obtained before and at the end of weight-reducing dietary inte...
متن کاملLoss-of-Function Mutations in ABCA1 and Enhanced b-Cell Secretory Capacity in Young Adults
Loss-of-function mutations affecting the cholesterol transporter ATP-binding cassette transporter subfamily A member 1 (ABCA1) impair cellular cholesterol efflux and are associated with reduced HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. ABCA1 may also be important in regulating b-cell cholesterol homeostasis and insulin secretion. We sought to determine whether loss-offunction ABCA1 mutations affect b-cel...
