Aberrant islet unfolded protein response in type 2 diabetes
The endoplasmic reticulum adapts to fluctuations in demand and copes with stress through an adaptive signaling cascade called the unfolded protein response (UPR). Accumulating evidence indicates that the canonical UPR is critical to the survival and function of insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells, and alterations in the UPR may contribute to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. However, the dy...
متن کاملIslet Amyloid Polypeptide is not a Target Antigen for CD8+ T-Cells in Type 2 Diabetes
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic metabolic disorder in which beta-cells are destroyed. The islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) produced by beta-cells has been reported to influence beta-cell destruction. Objective: To evaluate if IAPP can act as an autoantigen and therefore, to see if CD8 + T-cells specific for this protein might be present in T2D patients. Methods: Peripheral blood ...
متن کاملAlterations in adult hippocampal neurogenesis, aberrant protein s-nitrosylation, and associated spatial memory loss in streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus type 2 mice
Objective(s): Epidemiological and biochemical studies conducted over the past two decades have established a strong link between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the exact mechanisms through which aberrations in insulin signaling associated with T2DM contribute to cognitive decline are not yet known. Materials and Methods: In an effort to explore possible m...
متن کاملTargeting unfolded protein response in cancer and diabetes.
The maturation of secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is tightly regulated by the unfolded protein response (UPR), a signal transduction pathway maintaining ER protein folding homeostasis. However, certain ER states are incompatible with cell survival and therefore the UPR may choose to eliminate severely disrupted cells by apoptosis. This is accomplished primarily...
متن کاملAutoantibody response to islet transplantation in type 1 diabetes.
Islet allotransplantation into patients with autoimmune type 1 diabetes represents a reexposure to autoantigen. Here, measurement of antibodies to GAD and IA-2 autoantigens before and after islet transplantation in 36 patients (33 receiving islet plus kidney grafts with cyclosporin and steroid-based immunosuppression, and 3 receiving solitary islet transplants with mycophenolate but cyclosporin...
