ID1-Mediated BMP Signaling Pathway Potentiates Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Secretion in Response to Nutrient Replenishment.

ABSTRACT: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a well-known incretin hormone secreted from enteroendocrinal L cells in response to nutrients, such as glucose and dietary fat, and controls glycemic homeostasis. However, the detailed intracellular mechanisms of how L cells control GLP-1 secretion in response to nutrients still remain unclear. Here, we report that bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway plays a pivotal role to control GLP-1 secretion in response to nutrient replenishment in well-established mouse enteroendocrinal L cells (GLUTag cells). Nutrient starvation dramatically reduced cellular respiration and GLP-1 secretion in GLUTag cells. Transcriptome analysis revealed that nutrient starvation remarkably reduced gene expressions involved in BMP signaling pathway, whereas nutrient replenishment rescued BMP signaling to potentiate GLP-1 secretion. Transient knockdown of inhibitor of DNA binding (ID)1, a well-known target gene of BMP signaling, remarkably reduced GLP-1 secretion. Consistently, LDN193189, an inhibitor of BMP signaling, markedly reduced GLP-1 secretion in L cells. In contrast, BMP4 treatment activated BMP signaling pathway and potentiated GLP-1 secretion in response to nutrient replenishment. Altogether, we demonstrated that BMP signaling pathway is a novel molecular mechanism to control GLP-1 secretion in response to cellular nutrient status. Selective activation of BMP signaling would be a potent therapeutic strategy to stimulate GLP-1 secretion in order to restore glycemic homeostasis.

Project description:Appropriate glucagon secretion from pancreatic alpha cells in response to hypoglycemia is an important component of maintaining glucose homeostasis. Dysregulated glucagon secretion leads to the delayed recovery from a hypoglycemic attack in type 1 diabetes patients which can be lethal. Although elucidating the precise mechanism of glucagon secretion in hypoglycemia is warranted, the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood.The present study provides evidence of the role of autophagy in glucagon secretion in hypoglycemia by demonstrating that autophagy regulates adrenergic stimulation of glucagon secretion downstream of beta2 adrenergic receptor. First, from the analyses of T1D human islets and the published database of scRNA-seq of T1D human alpha cells, we described autophagy pathways altered in T1D alpha cells. Second, we generated alpha cell-specific Atg7KO mice (alphaAtg7KO) and clarified that the lack of autophagy in alpha cells impairs the reactive glucagon secretion in acute hypoglycemia. Third, to interrogate the molecular mechanism of autophagy-mediated glucagon regulation, we analyzed top genes downregulated inT1D and T2D alpha cells and found the expression of beta2 adrenergic receptor showed significant down-regulation in T1D alpha cells. We confirmed the decreased expression of beta2 adrenergic receptor in alpha cells of the T1D pancreas section, the islets of alphaAtg7KO mice, and a murine alpha cell line with stable knockdown of Atg7. Furthermore, in vivo and ex vivo studies of alphaAtg7KO mice exhibited that lack of autophagy led to the loss of stimulatory effect of beta2-adrenergic signaling on glucagon secretion. Finally, we established the Atg7 knockdown model in sorted human alpha cells and confirmed the effect of autophagy on the expression of the beta2 adrenergic receptor. Together, our study provides novel insights into the regulatory role of autophagy in glucagon secretion in response to hypoglycemia and provides therapeutic options to achieve stable glycemic control in T1D patients.
