G proteins and modulation of insulin secretion

RP Robertson, ER Seaquist and TF Walseth
Diabetes Center, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis.

Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are critically important mediators of many signal-transduction systems. Several important sites regulating stimulus-secretion coupling and release of insulin from pancreatic beta-cells are modulated by G proteins. Gs mediates increases in intracellular cAMP associated with hormone-induced stimulation of insulin secretin. Gi mediates decreases in intracellular cAMP caused by inhibitors of insulin secretion, e.g., epinephrine, somatostatin, prostaglandin E2, and galanin. G proteins also regulate ion channels, phospholipases, and distal sites in exocytosis. Cholera and pertussis toxins irreversibly ADP ribosylate G proteins and are important tools that can be used both to manipulate G-protein-dependent modulators of insulin secretion and detect and quantify G proteins by electrophoretic techniques. The stage is set to pursue these initial observations in greater depth and ascertain whether G-protein research will provide important new insights into normal and abnormal regulation of insulin secretion.
