IAPP toxicity activates HIF1α/PFKFB3 signaling delaying β-cell loss at the expense of β-cell function

ABSTRACT: The islet in type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by amyloid deposits derived from islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a protein co-expressed with insulin by β-cells. In common with amyloidogenic proteins implicated in neurodegeneration, human IAPP (hIAPP) forms membrane permeant toxic oligomers implicated in misfolded protein stress. Here, we establish that hIAPP misfolded protein stress activates HIF1α/PFKFB3 signaling, this increases glycolysis disengaged from oxidative phosphorylation with mitochondrial fragmentation and perinuclear clustering, considered a protective posture against increased cytosolic Ca2+ characteristic of toxic oligomer stress. In contrast to tissues with the capacity to regenerate, β-cells in adult humans are minimally replicative, and therefore fail to execute the second pro-regenerative phase of the HIF1α/PFKFB3 injury pathway. Instead, β-cells in T2D remain trapped in the pro-survival first phase of the HIF1α injury repair response with metabolism and the mitochondrial network adapted to slow the rate of cell attrition at the expense of β-cell function.

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and inflammatory stress responses are two pathophysiologic factors contributing to islet dysfunction and failure in Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). However, how human islet cells respond to these stressors and whether T2D-associated genetic variants modulate these responses is unknown. To fill this knowledge gap, we profiled transcriptional (RNA-seq) and epigenetic (ATAC-seq) remodeling in human islets exposed to ex vivo ER (thapsigargin) or inflammatory (IL-1β+IFN-γ) stress. 5,427 genes (~32%) were associated with stress responses; most were stressor-specific, including upregulation of genes mediating unfolded protein response (e.g. DDIT3, ATF4) and NFKB signaling (e.g. NFKB1, NFKBIA) in ER stress and inflammation respectively. Islet single-cell RNA-seq profiling revealed strong but heterogeneous beta cell ER stress responses, including a distinct beta cell subset that highly expressed apoptotic genes. Epigenetic profiling uncovered 14,968 stress-responsive cis-regulatory elements (CREs; ~14%), the majority of which were stressor-specific, and revealed increased accessibility at binding sites of transcription factors that were induced upon stress (e.g. ATF4 for ER stress, IRF8 for inflammation). Seventy-six stress-responsive CREs overlapped known T2D-associated variants, including 20 residing within CREs that were more accessible upon ER stress. Among these, we linked the rs6917676 T2D risk allele (T) to increased in vivo accessibility of an islet ER stress-responsive CRE and allele-specific beta-cell nuclear factor binding in vitro. We showed that MAP3K5, the only ER stress-responsive gene in this locus, promotes beta cell apoptosis. Consistent with its pro-apoptotic and putative diabetogenic roles, MAP3K5 expression inversely correlated with beta cell abundance in human islets and was upregulated in beta cells from T2D donors. Together, this study provides new genome-wide insights into human islet stress responses and putative mechanisms of T2D genetic variants.
