Stress conditions and proinflammatory cytokines activate the c-Jun
NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), a member of the stress-activated group
of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). We recently demonstrated that
inhibition of JNK signaling with the use of the islet-brain (IB) 1 and 2
proteins prevented interleukin (IL)-1ßinduced pancreatic
ß-cell death. Bioactive cell-permeable peptide inhibitors of JNK were
engineered by linking the minimal 20-amino acid inhibitory domains of the IB
proteins to the 10-amino acid HIV-TAT sequence that rapidly translocates
inside cells. Kinase assays indicate that the inhibitors block activation of
the transcription factor c-Jun by JNK. Addition of the peptides to the
insulin-secreting ßTC-3 cell line results in a marked inhibition of
IL-1ßinduced c-jun and c-fos expression. The
peptides protect ßTC-3 cells against apoptosis induced by IL-1ß.
All-D retro-inverso peptides penetrate cells as efficiently as the
L-enantiomers, decrease c-Jun activation by JNK, and remain highly stable
inside cells. These latter peptides confer full protection against
IL-1ßinduced apoptosis for up to 2 weeks of continual treatment
with IL-1ß. These data establish these bioactive cell-permeable peptides
as potent pharmacological compounds that decrease intracellular JNK signaling
and confer long-term protection to pancreatic ß-cells from
IL-1ßinduced apoptosis.
