Insulinotropic glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists stimulate expression of homeodomain protein IDX-1 and increase islet size in mouse pancreas
DA Stoffers, TJ Kieffer, MA Hussain, DJ Drucker, S Bonner-Weir, JF Habener and JM Egan
Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, USA.
Diabetes is caused by a failure of the pancreas to produce insulin in
amounts sufficient to meet the body's needs. A hallmark of diabetes is an
absolute (type 1) or relative (type 2) reduction in the mass of pancreatic
beta-cells that produce insulin. Mature beta-cells have a lifespan of
approximately 48-56 days (rat) and are replaced by the replication of
preexisting beta-cells and by the differentiation and proliferation of new
beta-cells (neogenesis) derived from the pancreatic ducts. Here, we show
that the insulinotropic hormone glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1, which is
produced by the intestine, enhances the pancreatic expression of the
homeodomain transcription factor IDX-1 that is critical for pancreas
development and the transcriptional regulation of the insulin gene.
Concomitantly, GLP-1 administered to diabetic mice stimulates insulin
secretion and effectively lowers their blood sugar levels. GLP-1 also
enhances beta-cell neogenesis and islet size. Thus, in addition to
stimulating insulin secretion, GLP-1 stimulates the expression of the
transcription factor IDX-1 while stimulating beta-cell neogenesis and may
thereby be an effective treatment for diabetes.
