Project description:Pancreatic beta cell failure in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is attributed in part to perturbations of the beta cell's transcriptional landscape resulting in the aberrant regulation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Recent studies identified SLC4A4 (a gene encoding an electrogenic Na+-coupled HCO3- cotransporter and intracellular pH regulator, NBCe1) as one of the mis-expressed genes in beta cells of patients with T2DM. Thus, in the current study we set out to test the hypothesis that mis-expression of SLC4A4/NBCe1 in T2DM beta cells contributes to beta cell dysfunction and impaired glucose homeostasis. To address this hypothesis, we first confirmed induction of SLC4A4/NBCe1 expression in beta cells of patients with T2DM and demonstrated that its expression is associated with loss of beta cell transcriptional identity, intracellular alkalinization, and beta cell dysfunction. In addition, we generated a beta cell selective Slc4a4/NBCe1 knockout mouse model and report that these mice are protected from diet-induced metabolic stress and beta cell failure. Importantly, improved glucose tolerance and enhanced beta cell function in Slc4a4/NBCe1 deficient mice was due to augmented mitochondrial function and increased expression of genes regulating beta cell identity and function. These results suggest that increased beta cell expression of SLC4A4/NBCe1 in T2DM plays a contributory role in promotion of beta cell failure and should be considered as a potential novel therapeutic target.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte-specific loss of the electrogenic NBCe1 Na+-HCO3- cotransporter is cardioprotective during in vivo ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. An NBCe1 (Slc4a4 gene) cardiac conditional knockout mouse (KO) model was prepared by gene targeting. Cardiovascular performance of wild-type (WT) and cardiac-specific NBCe1 KO mice was analyzed by intraventricular pressure measurements, and changes in cardiac gene expression were determined by RNA Seq analysis. Response to in vivo I/R injury was analyzed after 30 minutes occlusion of the left anterior descending artery followed by 3 hours of reperfusion. Loss of NBCe1 in cardiac myocytes did not impair cardiac contractility or relaxation and caused only limited changes in gene expression patterns, such as those for electrical excitability. However, following ischemia and reperfusion, KO heart sections exhibited significantly fewer apoptotic nuclei than WT sections. These studies indicate that cardiac-specific loss of NBCe1 does not impair cardiovascular performance, causes only minimal changes in gene expression patterns, and protects against I/R injury in vivo.

Project description:The electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1, NBCe1 (SLC4A4), is the major bicarbonate transporter expressed in astrocytes. It is highly sensitive for bicarbonate, and the main regulator of intracellular-, extracellular-, and synaptic pH, thereby modulating neuronal excitability. However, despite these essential functions, the molecular mechanisms underlying NBCe1-mediated astrocytic response to extracellular pH changes are mostly unknown. Using primary cortical astrocyte cultures we have investigated the effect of long-term extracellular metabolic alkalosis on regulation of NBCe1 using functional assays and phosphoproteomic analysis.

Project description:The activity of HCO(3)(-) transporters contributes to the acid-base environment of the nervous system. In the present study, we used in situ hybridization, immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunogold electron microscopy to localize electrogenic Na/bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1 splice variants (-A, -B, and -C) in rat brain. The in situ hybridization data are consistent with NBCe1-B and -C, but not -A, being the predominant NBCe1 variants in brain, particularly in the cerebellum, hippocampus, piriform cortex, and olfactory bulb. An antisense probe to the B and C variants strongly labeled granule neurons in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, and cells in the granule layer and Purkinje layer (e.g. Bergmann glia) of the cerebellum. Weaker labeling was observed in the pyramidal layer of the hippocampus and in astrocytes throughout the brain. Similar, but weaker labeling was obtained with an antisense probe to the A and B variants. In immunoblot studies, antibodies to the A and B variants (alphaA/B) and C variant (alphaC) labeled approximately 130-kDa proteins in various brain regions. From immunohistochemistry data, both alphaA/B and alphaC exhibited diffuse labeling throughout brain, but alphaA/B labeling was more intracellular and punctate. Based on co-localization studies with antibodies to neuronal or astrocytic markers, alphaA/B labeled neurons in the pyramidal layer and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, as well as cortex. alphaC labeled glia surrounding neurons (and possibly neurons) in the neuropil of the Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellum, the pyramidal cell layer and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, and the cortex. According to electron microscopy data from the cerebellum, alphaA/B primarily labeled neurons intracellularly and alphaC labeled astrocytes at the plasma membrane. In summary, the B and C variants are the predominant NBCe1 variants in rat brain and exhibit different localization profiles.

Project description:Astrocytes are pivotal responders to alterations of extracellular pH, primarily by regulation of their “master” acid-base transporter, the membrane-bound electrogenic Na+/bicarbonate cotransporter 1 (NBCe1). Here, we describe an mTOR-dependent and NBCe1-mediated astroglial response to extracellular acidosis. Using primary mouse cortical astrocytes we investigated the effect of long-term extracellular metabolic acidosis on regulation of NBCe1 and elucidated the underlying molecular mechanisms by immunoblotting, biotinylation of surface proteins, intracellular H+ recording using the H+ -sensitive dye 2′,7′-bis-(carboxyethyl)-5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF), and phosphoproteomic analysis. The results showed significant increase of NBCe-1-mediated recovery of intracellular pH from acidification in wild-type astrocytes, but not in cortical astrocytes from NBCe1-deficient mice. Acidosis-induced upregulated NBCe1 activity was prevented following inhibition of mTOR signaling by rapamycin. In contrast, during acidosis or following exposure of astrocytes to rapamycin, surface protein abundance of NBCe1 remained comparable. Furthermore, NBCe1 activity was dependent on phosphorylation state of Ser245, a residue conserved in all NBCe1 variants. Mutational analysis suggested that phosphorylation state of Ser245 is regulated by mTOR and is inversely correlated with NBCe1 transport activity. Our results identify pSer245 as a novel regulator of NBCe1 functional expression. We propose that context-dependent and mTOR-mediated multisite phosphorylation of serine residues of NBCe1 is likely to be a potent mechanism contributing to the response of astrocytes to acid/base challenges during pathophysiological conditions.
