Differentially Expressed Proteins in the Pancreas of Diabetic DIFFERENTIALLY EXPRESSED PROTEINS IN THE PANCREAS OF DIABETIC MICE A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Linghua Qiu June 2005 This dissertation entitled DIFFERENTIALLY EXPRESSED PROTEINS IN THE PANCREAS OF DIABETIC MICE by LINGHUA QIU has been approved for the Department of Biological Sciences and the College of Arts and Sciences by John J. Kopchick Goll-Ohio Professor of Molecular Biology Leslie A. Flemming Dean, College of Arts and Sciences QIU, LINGHUA. Ph.D. June 2005. Biological Sciences Differentially Expressed Proteins in the Pancreas of Diabetic Mice. (222pp.) Director of Dissertation: John J. Kopchick C57BL/6J male mice fed a high-fat diet become obese and develop type 2 diabetes (T2DM), which serves as a model of obesity-associated diabetes in humans. In this study, proteins were extracted from the pancreas of diabetic and control mice and were resolved by 2 dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The pancreatic protein profiles were compared between control and diabetic mice. Eleven protein spots were differentially expressed and 10 of them were identified by mass spectrometry (MS) analyses. REG1 and REG2 proteins, which may be involved in the regeneration of pancreatic β-cells, were up-regulated very early in the progression of obese mice to T2DM. Up-regulation of Reg1 and Reg2 may reflect the effort by the pancreas to ameliorate the hyperglycemic condition by stimulating the proliferation of pancreatic β-cells resulting in subsequent insulin secretion. Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor 1 (GDI-1), 1-Cys peroxiredoxin protein, and pancreatic elastase 3B were also up-regulated in the pancreas of diabetic mice relative to control. However, how these expression levels are related to the diabetic condition is unclear. Glutathione peroxidase (Gpx1), which functions in the clearance of reactive oxidative species (ROS), was down-regulated in diabetic mice. The down- regulation of glutathione peroxidase in pancreas could contribute to the progressive deterioration of β-cell function, which may be related to the hyperglycemia induced oxidative stress. Finally, the protein levels of the receptor of activated protein kinase C1, which function in many signaling cascades, was decreased in diabetic mice when compared with normal controls. Because of their potential importance to T2DM, Reg 2 and Gpx1 were selected as potential targets of further investigation. Generation of transgenic mice that over-express Reg2 or Gpx1 can provide valuable information to understand the biological function of Reg2 and Gpx1 during the development of diabetes in mice. As a part of this strategy, expression vectors for Reg2 and Gpx1 were constructed and stable mammalian cell lines which express the genes were established. Expression was confirmed at the mRNA and protein levels for the two genes. Transgenic mice with the Reg2 gene under the control of mouse metallothionien I promoter were generated. These studies will provide a means to study the physiological function of these proteins in association with diabetes and β-cell function. Approved: John J.

In addition, liver glucose metabolism is involved in glycosylation reactions and con- nected with fatty acid metabolism. The liver receives dietary carbohydrates directly from the intestine via the portal vein. Glucokinase phosphorylates glucose to glucose 6-phosphate inside the hepatocyte, ensuring that an adequate flow of glucose enters the cell to be metabolized. Glucose 6-phosphate may proceed to several metabolic path- ways. During the post-prandial period, most glucose 6-phosphate is used to synthesize glycogen via the formation of glucose 1-phosphate and UDP–glucose. Minor amounts of UDP–glucose are used to form UDP–glucuronate and UDP– galactose, which are donors of monosaccharide units used in glycosylation. A second pathway of glucose 6-phosphate metabolism is the formation of fructose 6-phosphate, which may either start the hexosamine pathway to produce UDP-N-acetylglucosamine or follow the glycolytic pathway to generate pyruvate and then acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA may enter the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to be oxidized or may be exported to the cytosol to synthesize fatty acids, when excess glucose is present within the hepatocyte. Finally, glucose 6-phosphate may produce NADPH and ribose 5-phosphate through the pentose phosphate pathway.

Pregnancy represents a crucial time to diagnose MODY forms due to the 50% risk of inheritance in offspring of affected subjects and the potential implications on adequate fetal weight. Not only a history of maternal diabetes may affect the birth weight of offspring, paternal diabetes should also be taken into consideration for a correct pathogenetic diagnosis.

To date, three MODY genes have been identi®ed on chromosomes 20q (MODY1/hepatic nuclear factor (HNF)-4a), 7p (MODY2/glucokinase) and 12q (MODY3/HNF-1a). Mutations in MODY2/glucokinase result in mild chronic hyperglycaemia as a result of reduced pancreatic beta-cell responsiveness to glucose, and decreased net accumulation of hepatic glycogen and increased hepatic gluconeogenesis after meals. In contrast, MODY1 and MODY3 are characterised by severe insulin secretory defects, and by major hyperglycaemia associated with microvascular complications. The role of the three known MODY genes in susceptibility to the more common late-onset NIDDM remain uncertain. Genetic studies seem to exclude a role as major susceptibility genes, but leave unresolved whether they may have a minor role in a polygenic context or an important role in particular populations. European Journal of Endocrinology 138 233±239 MODY is a monogenic form of NIDDM MODY3/HNF-1a (11, 12) respectively, can cause this form of diabetes.
