Isolation and Proteomics of the Insulin Secretory Granule.

ABSTRACT: Insulin, a vital hormone for glucose homeostasis is produced by pancreatic beta-cells and when secreted, stimulates the uptake and storage of glucose from the blood. In the pancreas, insulin is stored in vesicles termed insulin secretory granules (ISGs). In Type 2 diabetes (T2D), defects in insulin action results in peripheral insulin resistance and beta-cell compensation, ultimately leading to dysfunctional ISG production and secretion. ISGs are functionally dynamic and many proteins present either on the membrane or in the lumen of the ISG may modulate and affect different stages of ISG trafficking and secretion. Previously, studies have identified few ISG proteins and more recently, proteomics analyses of purified ISGs have uncovered potential novel ISG proteins. This review summarizes the proteins identified in the current ISG proteomes from rat insulinoma INS-1 and INS-1E cell lines. Here, we also discuss techniques of ISG isolation and purification, its challenges and potential future directions.

Neurexin-1? contributes to insulin-containing secretory granule docking.

Project description:Neurexins are a family of transmembrane, synaptic adhesion molecules. In neurons, neurexins bind to both sub-plasma membrane and synaptic vesicle-associated constituents of the secretory machinery, play a key role in the organization and stabilization of the presynaptic active zone, and help mediate docking of synaptic vesicles. We have previously shown that neurexins, like many other protein constituents of the neurotransmitter exocytotic machinery, are expressed in pancreatic ? cells. We hypothesized that the role of neurexins in ? cells parallels their role in neurons, with ?-cell neurexins helping to mediate insulin granule docking and secretion. Here we demonstrate that ? cells express a more restricted pattern of neurexin transcripts than neurons, with a clear predominance of neurexin-1? expressed in isolated islets. Using INS-1E ? cells, we found that neurexin-1? interacts with membrane-bound components of the secretory granule-docking machinery and with the granule-associated protein granuphilin. Decreased expression of neurexin-1?, like decreased expression of granuphilin, reduces granule docking at the ?-cell membrane and improves insulin secretion. Perifusion of neurexin-1? KO mouse islets revealed a significant increase in second-phase insulin secretion with a trend toward increased first-phase secretion. Upon glucose stimulation, neurexin-1? protein levels decrease. This glucose-induced down-regulation may enhance glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. We conclude that neurexin-1? is a component of the ?-cell secretory machinery and contributes to secretory granule docking, most likely through interactions with granuphilin. Neurexin-1? is the only transmembrane component of the docking machinery identified thus far. Our findings provide new insights into the mechanisms of insulin granule docking and exocytosis.

The Prohormone VGF Regulates β Cell Function via Insulin Secretory Granule Biogenesis.

Project description:The prohormone VGF is expressed in neuroendocrine and endocrine tissues and regulates nutrient and energy status both centrally and peripherally. We and others have shown that VGF-derived peptides have direct action on the islet β cell as secretagogues and cytoprotective agents; however, the endogenous function of VGF in the β cell has not been described. Here, we demonstrate that VGF regulates secretory granule formation. VGF loss-of-function studies in both isolated islets and conditional knockout mice reveal a profound decrease in stimulus-coupled insulin secretion. Moreover, VGF is necessary to facilitate efficient exit of granule cargo from the trans-Golgi network and proinsulin processing. It also functions to replenish insulin granule stores following nutrient stimulation. Our data support a model in which VGF operates at a critical node of granule biogenesis in the islet β cell to coordinate insulin biosynthesis with β cell secretory capacity.

Mapping dynamic protein interactions to insulin secretory granule behavior with TIRF-FRET.

Project description:Biological processes are governed by extensive networks of dynamic molecular interactions. Yet, establishing a spatial and temporal map of these interactions and their direct relationship to specific cell functions has remained a challenge. Here, we implement sensitized emission Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) stoichiometry under total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy. We demonstrate through quantitative analysis and modeling that evanescent fields must be precisely matched between FRET excitation wavelengths to isolate dynamic interactions between bimolecular FRET pairs that are not entirely membrane-delimited. We then use TIRF-FRET to monitor the behavior of individual insulin-containing secretory granules at the plasma membrane of living cells, while simultaneously tracking the dynamic interaction between the GTPase Rab27A and its effector Slp4A, on those same granules. Notably, insulin granules that underwent exocytosis demonstrated a specific increase in Rab27A-GTP/Slp4A FRET in the 5 s before membrane fusion, which coincided temporally with an increase in granule displacement and mobility. These results demonstrate an initial spatiotemporal mapping of a dynamic protein-protein interaction on individual secretory granules that is linked to a specific granule behavior in living cells.

AP-1A controls secretory granule biogenesis and trafficking of membrane secretory granule proteins.

Project description:The adaptor protein 1A complex (AP-1A) transports cargo between the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. In professional secretory cells, AP-1A also retrieves material from immature secretory granules (SGs). The role of AP-1A in SG biogenesis was explored using AtT-20 corticotrope tumor cells expressing reduced levels of the AP-1A ?1A subunit. A twofold reduction in ?1A resulted in a decrease in TGN cisternae and immature SGs and the appearance of regulated secretory pathway components in non-condensing SGs. Although basal secretion of endogenous SG proteins was unaffected, secretagogue-stimulated release was halved. The reduced ?1A levels interfered with the normal trafficking of carboxypeptidase D (CPD) and peptidylglycine ?-amidating monooxygenase-1 (PAM-1), integral membrane enzymes that enter immature SGs. The non-condensing SGs contained POMC products and PAM-1, but not CPD. Based on metabolic labeling and secretion experiments, the cleavage of newly synthesized PAM-1 into PHM was unaltered, but PHM basal secretion was increased in sh-?1A PAM-1 cells. Despite lacking a canonical AP-1A binding motif, yeast two-hybrid studies demonstrated an interaction between the PAM-1 cytosolic domain and AP-1A. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments with PAM-1 mutants revealed an influence of the luminal domains of PAM-1 on this interaction. Thus, AP-1A is crucial for normal SG biogenesis, function and composition.

Sequential in vivo labeling of insulin secretory granule pools in INS-SNAP transgenic pigs.

Project description:β cells produce, store, and secrete insulin upon elevated blood glucose levels. Insulin secretion is a highly regulated process. The probability for insulin secretory granules to undergo fusion with the plasma membrane or being degraded is correlated with their age. However, the molecular features and stimuli connected to this behavior have not yet been fully understood. Furthermore, our understanding of β cell function is mostly derived from studies of ex vivo isolated islets in rodent models. To overcome this translational gap and study insulin secretory granule turnover in vivo, we have generated a transgenic pig model with the SNAP-tag fused to insulin. We demonstrate the correct targeting and processing of the tagged insulin and normal glycemic control of the pig model. Furthermore, we show specific single- and dual-color granular labeling of in vivo-labeled pig pancreas. This model may provide unprecedented insights into the in vivo insulin secretory granule behavior in an animal close to humans.

SORCS1 is necessary for normal insulin secretory granule biogenesis in metabolically stressed β cells.

Project description:We previously positionally cloned Sorcs1 as a diabetes quantitative trait locus. Sorcs1 belongs to the Vacuolar protein sorting-10 (Vps10) gene family. In yeast, Vps10 transports enzymes from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the vacuole. Whole-body Sorcs1 KO mice, when made obese with the leptin(ob) mutation (ob/ob), developed diabetes. β Cells from these mice had a severe deficiency of secretory granules (SGs) and insulin. Interestingly, a single secretagogue challenge failed to consistently elicit an insulin secretory dysfunction. However, multiple challenges of the Sorcs1 KO ob/ob islets consistently revealed an insulin secretion defect. The luminal domain of SORCS1 (Lum-Sorcs1), when expressed in a β cell line, acted as a dominant-negative, leading to SG and insulin deficiency. Using syncollin-dsRed5TIMER adenovirus, we found that the loss of Sorcs1 function greatly impairs the rapid replenishment of SGs following secretagogue challenge. Chronic exposure of islets from lean Sorcs1 KO mice to high glucose and palmitate depleted insulin content and evoked an insulin secretion defect. Thus, in metabolically stressed mice, Sorcs1 is important for SG replenishment, and under chronic challenge by insulin secretagogues, loss of Sorcs1 leads to diabetes. Overexpression of full-length SORCS1 led to a 2-fold increase in SG content, suggesting that SORCS1 is sufficient to promote SG biogenesis.

Distinct insulin granule subpopulations implicated in the secretory pathology of diabetes types 1 and 2.

Project description:Insulin secretion from β-cells is reduced at the onset of type-1 and during type-2 diabetes. Although inflammation and metabolic dysfunction of β-cells elicit secretory defects associated with type-1 or type-2 diabetes, accompanying changes to insulin granules have not been established. To address this, we performed detailed functional analyses of insulin granules purified from cells subjected to model treatments that mimic type-1 and type-2 diabetic conditions and discovered striking shifts in calcium affinities and fusion characteristics. We show that this behavior is correlated with two subpopulations of insulin granules whose relative abundance is differentially shifted depending on diabetic model condition. The two types of granules have different release characteristics, distinct lipid and protein compositions, and package different secretory contents alongside insulin. This complexity of β-cell secretory physiology establishes a direct link between granule subpopulation and type of diabetes and leads to a revised model of secretory changes in the diabetogenic process.

Biosynthesis of insulin secretory granule membrane proteins. Control by glucose.

Project description:The biosynthesis of a component SGM 110, specifically localized to the membrane of insulin secretory granules, was studied in rat insulinoma cells and in normal islets of Langerhans. Cells or islets were labelled with [35S]methionine or [3H]mannose and SGM 110 was immunoprecipitated by using a monoclonal antibody. Pulse-chase experiments demonstrated that the nascent polypeptide was cotranslationally glycosylated to form a 97,000 Da peptide which in turn was processed to the mature 110,000 Da form. A 50,000 Da form detected by immunoblotting with the same antibody was not conspicuously labelled even after a 20 h chase incubation, suggesting that it represented late processing of SGM 110 in lysosomes. With insulinoma cells, an increase in medium glucose concentration from 3 mM to 20 mM was without effect on the secretion of insulin or on the biosynthesis of (pro)insulin or SGM 110. In normal islets, however, 20 mM-glucose produced a 17-fold increase in (pro)insulin biosynthesis and a 13-fold increase in SGM 110 biosynthesis, compared with only a 2-fold increase in total protein synthesis, as judged by incorporation of [35S]methionine during a 1 h incubation. The effect of glucose on both (pro)insulin and SGM 110 biosynthesis was blocked by the addition of mannoheptulose, but not by the removal of extracellular calcium, both of which conditions inhibit insulin secretion. In contrast tolbutamide, an agent which stimulates insulin secretion, did not enhance the biosynthesis of (pro)insulin or SGM 110. It is concluded that at least one protein component of the insulin secretory granule membrane is synthesized co-ordinately with proinsulin and is subject to similar regulatory mechanisms. Factors which acutely control insulin secretion may also control granule biogenesis, although the two processes are not coupled in an obligatory fashion.

Condensation of the β-cell secretory granule luminal cargoes pro/insulin and ICA512 RESP18 homology domain.

Project description:ICA512/PTPRN is a receptor tyrosine-like phosphatase implicated in the biogenesis and turnover of the insulin secretory granules (SGs) in pancreatic islet beta cells. Previously we found biophysical evidence that its luminal RESP18 homology domain (RESP18HD) forms a biomolecular condensate and interacts with insulin in vitro at close-to-neutral pH, that is, in conditions resembling those present in the early secretory pathway. Here we provide further evidence for the relevance of these findings by showing that at pH 6.8 RESP18HD interacts also with proinsulin-the physiological insulin precursor found in the early secretory pathway and the major luminal cargo of β-cell nascent SGs. Our light scattering analyses indicate that RESP18HD and proinsulin, but also insulin, populate nanocondensates ranging in size from 15 to 300 nm and 10e2 to 10e6 molecules. Co-condensation of RESP18HD with proinsulin/insulin transforms the initial nanocondensates into microcondensates (size >1 μm). The intrinsic tendency of proinsulin to self-condensate implies that, in the ER, a chaperoning mechanism must arrest its spontaneous intermolecular condensation to allow for proper intramolecular folding. These data further suggest that proinsulin is an early driver of insulin SG biogenesis, in a process in which its co-condensation with RESP18HD participates in their phase separation from other secretory proteins in transit through the same compartments but destined to other routes. Through the cytosolic tail of ICA512, proinsulin co-condensation with RESP18HD may further orchestrate the recruitment of cytosolic factors involved in membrane budding and fission of transport vesicles and nascent SGs.

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies to insulin secretory granule membranes.

Project description:Monoclonal antibodies to insulin secretory granule membranes were obtained following immunization of mice with granule membranes purified from a rat transplantable insulinoma. The specificities of the antibodies were investigated by using binding assays with different insulinoma subcellular fractions, by indirect immunofluorescence studies with intact and permeabilized cells, and by immunoblotting of granule membrane proteins fractionated by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Fifty-six antibodies were characterized initially, and 21 representative cell lines were cloned. The antibodies fell into four categories: (1) binding preferentially to secretory granules, and reacting with a component of approx. 80,000 Da on immunoblots (antigen designated SGM 80); (2) binding preferentially to secretory granules, and reacting with components of approx. 110,000 and 50,000 Da on immunoblots (antigen designated SGM 110); (3) binding preferentially to secretory granules but unreactive on immunoblots; (4) binding to membrane antigen(s) with a widespread intracellular distribution which included granules and plasma membranes. The antigens SGM 80 and SGM 110 were studied in more detail and both were shown to be integral membrane glycoproteins with antigenic determinants located on the internal face of the secretory granule membrane. These antigens were also present in normal rat islets of Langerhans and similar components were detected by immunoblotting in secretory granules from anterior pituitary and adrenal medulla. Proteins which were immunologically related to SGM 80 and SGM 110, but distinct in molecular size, were also identified in liver. It is concluded that secretory granules contain specific components which are restricted in subcellular location but widespread in tissue distribution. The antibodies obtained will be valuable reagents in the further investigation of the biogenesis and turnover of insulin secretory granules.
