Project description:We performed microarray analysis to evaluate differences in the transcriptome of type 2 diabetic human islets compared to non-diabetic islet samples. Human islets were isolated from the pancreas of organ donors by collagenase digestion followed by density gradient purification, then hand-picked and cultured 2 days in M199 culture medium.

Project description:Pancreatic islet (dys)function is central to glucose homeostasis and type 2 diabetes (patho)physiology. Human islets consist of multiple endocrine (alpha, beta, delta, gamma), endothelial, and resident/inflitrating immune cells whose coordinated functions modulate glucose mobilization or disposal. Single cell transcriptome profiling (scRNA-seq) studies have been applied to dissect human islet cellular heterogeneity, identify islet cell (sub)populations, and define their molecular repertoire. However, precise understanding of cell type-specific alterations in type 2 diabetic vs. non-diabetic individuals is lacking, due in part to the limited number of individuals or single cell transcriptomes per individual profiled for comparison. Here, we create a comprehensive single cell transcriptome atlas of 245,878 human islet cells from 48 individuals spanning non-diabetic (ND), pre-diabetic (PD), and type 2 diabetic (T2D) states and matched for sex, age, and ancestry and define marker gene sets that are robustly expressed across disease states for each of the 14 cell types identified. We observe significant decreases in the number of beta cells sampled from T2D vs. ND or PD donors. Two of eight putative beta cell subpopulations, with ‘high functioning’ and ‘senescent’ cell gene signatures, increase and decrease in T2D donor islets, respectively. Importantly, we identify 511 differentially expressed genes in beta cells from T2D vs. ND donors. This includes monogenic and type 2 diabetes effector genes, such as HNF1A, DGKB, ST6GAL1, and FXYD2, for which genetic and environmental effects on their expression is concordant. Human beta cell and islet knockdown of selected newly-identified down-regulated genes impairs beta cell viability or function. Together, this study provides new and robust, cell type-resolved insights on the cellular and molecular changes in healthy vs. diabetic human islets and represents a valuable resource to the islet biology and type 2 diabetes communities.

Project description:Circular RNAs constitute an extensive fraction of the mammalian transcriptome.In this study, circular RNAs dysregulated in the islets of diabetic db/db mice were identified by high-throughput RNA sequencing. More than 5000 circRNAs were detected using RNA sequencing, indicating that circular transcripts were abundant in islets. Among them, we found that circ-Tulp4 showed significant downregulation in diabetic mouse islet cells. Further experiments indicated that modulating the expression of circ-Tulp4 in β cell lines desensitized β-cells to lipotoxicity.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a multi-factorial disease characterized by the inability of beta-cells in the endocrine pancreas to produce sufficient amounts of insulin to overcome insulin resistance in peripheral tissue. To investigate the function of miRNAs in T2DM, we sequenced the small RNAs of human islets cells from diabetic and non-diabetic organ donors and identified a cluster of miRNAs in an imprinted locus on human chromosome 14 to be dramatically down-regulated in T2DM islets. These miRNAs are highly and specifically expressed in human beta-cells. The down-regulation of this imprinted locus strongly correlates with increased methylation of its promoter in T2DM islets, providing evidence for an epigenetic modification that contributes to the pathogenesis of T2DM. Targets of the Chr 14q32 cluster of miRNAs were identified by high-throughput sequencing of cross-linked and immunoprecipitated RNA (HITS-CLIP) of Argonaute. We have also identified a unique class of sequences, termed chimeric reads, that represent an in vivo ligation of miRNAs and their targets while in complex with Argonaute, and which allow for the direct identification of miRNA:target relationships in vivo. There are three experiments in this submission. All are in human islets or islet cell types. The first is a comparison of miRNA levels in sorted alpha versus beta cells. There is one replicate for this experiment. The second experiment is to measure the expression of miRNAs in whole islets as a function of glucose levels. There are three levels and one replicate for each condition. The third exeriment is a comparison of whole islets taken from human donors that were suspected/confirmed Type 2 diabetic or considered controls. There are 3 controls and 4 T2D samples.

Project description:Hybrid insulin peptides (HIPs) result from the linkage of an insulin C-peptide fragment and another peptide via a traditional peptide bond to generate a sequence that is not encoded in the genome. Here, we sought to identify HIPs naturally present in the pancreatic islets of non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, BALB/c mice, and non-diabetic human donors by mass spectrometry.

Project description:We have studied the impact of T2D on open chromatin in human pancreatic islets. We used assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) to profile open chromatin in islets from T2D and non-diabetic donors. We identified ATAC-seq peaks representing open chromatin regions in islets of non-diabetic and diabetic donors. The majority of ATAC-seq peaks mapped near transcription start sites. Additionally, peaks were enriched in enhancer regions and in regions where islet-specific TFs bind. Islet ATAC-seq peaks overlap with SNPs associated with T2D and with additional SNPs in LD with known T2D SNPs. There was enrichment of open chromatin regions near highly expressed genes in human islets.

Project description:Persistent antigen exposure results in the differentiation of functionally impaired, also termed exhausted, T cells which are maintained by a distinct population of precursors of exhausted T (TPEX) cells. T cell exhaustion is well studied in the context of chronic viral infections and cancer, but it is unclear if and how antigen-driven T cell exhaustion controls progression of autoimmune diabetes and whether this process can be harnessed to prevent diabetes. Using non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, we show that some CD8+ T cells specific for the islet antigen, islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP) displayed terminal exhaustion characteristics within pancreatic islets but were maintained in the TPEX cell state in peripheral lymphoid organs. More IGRP-specific T cells resided in the peripheral lymphoid organs than in islets. To examine the impact of extra-islet antigen exposure on T cell exhaustion in diabetes, we generated transgenic NOD mice with inducible IGRP expression in peripheral antigen presenting cells. Antigen exposure in the extra-islet environment induced severely exhausted IGRP-specific T cells with reduced ability to produce IFNγ, which protected these mice from diabetes. Our data demonstrate that T cell exhaustion induced by delivery of antigen can be harnessed to prevent autoimmune diabetes.

Project description:We used single cell multiome (ATAC and RNA) sequencing to profile 85266 islet cells from 20 individuals, including islets from non-diabetic, pre-diabetic and type 2 diabetic (T2D) donors. We characterize changes in regulatory programs of islet cell types and subtypes in T2D progression, describe the relationship of these programs to genetic risk for T2D, and use allelic imbalance mapping to define cell type-specific functions for candidate T2D causal variants.

Project description:Close to 50 genetic loci have been associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), but they explain only 15% of the heritability. In an attempt to identify additional T2D genes, we analyzed global gene expression in human islets from 63 donors. Islets from cadaver donors (54 non-diabetic and 9 diabetic) were provided by the Nordic Islet Transplantation Programme (www.nordicislets.org), Uppsala University. The microarrays were performed using GeneChipM-BM-. Human Gene 1.0 ST whole transcript according to Affymetrix standard protocol.

Project description:In this study, we used single cell nucleus ATAC-seq (snATAC-seq) to profile 218,973 islet cells from 34 individuals, including islets from non-diabetic, pre-diabetic and type 2 diectic (T2D) donors. We characterize changes in regulatory programs of islet cell types in T2D progression, describe the relationship of these programs to genetic risk for T2D, and use allelic imbalance mapping to define cell type-specific functions for candidate T2D causal variants.
