Human vascularized macrophage-islet organoids to model immune-mediated pancreatic β cell pyroptosis upon viral infection. Cell Stem Cell 2024:S1934-5909(24)00293-5. [PMID: 39232561 DOI: 10.1016/j.stem.2024.08.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/06/2024]
Abstract
There is a paucity of human models to study immune-mediated host damage. Here, we utilized the GeoMx spatial multi-omics platform to analyze immune cell changes in COVID-19 pancreatic autopsy samples, revealing an accumulation of proinflammatory macrophages. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of human islets exposed to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) or coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) viruses identified activation of proinflammatory macrophages and β cell pyroptosis. To distinguish viral versus proinflammatory-macrophage-mediated β cell pyroptosis, we developed human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived vascularized macrophage-islet (VMI) organoids. VMI organoids exhibited enhanced marker expression and function in both β cells and endothelial cells compared with separately cultured cells. Notably, proinflammatory macrophages within VMI organoids induced β cell pyroptosis. Mechanistic investigations highlighted TNFSF12-TNFRSF12A involvement in proinflammatory-macrophage-mediated β cell pyroptosis. This study established hPSC-derived VMI organoids as a valuable tool for studying immune-cell-mediated host damage and uncovered the mechanism of β cell damage during viral exposure.

[PMID: 37245633 DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2023.101963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
Ageing is a physiological/pathological process accompanied by the progressive damage of cell function, triggering various ageing-related disorders. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), which serves as one of the central regulators of ageing, is closely associated with cellular characteristics or molecular features, such as genome instability, telomere erosion, epigenetic alterations, and mitochondrial dysfunction. In this review, the PI3K signalling pathway was firstly thoroughly explained. The link between ageing pathogenesis and the PI3K signalling pathway was then summarized. Finally, the key regulatory roles of PI3K in ageing-related illnesses were investigated and stressed. In summary, we revealed that drug development and clinical application targeting PI3K is one of the focal points for delaying ageing and treating ageing-related diseases in the future.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains a common complication during liver transplantation (LT), partial hepatectomy and hemorrhagic shock in patients. As a member of the G protein-coupled receptors adaptors, ARRB2 has been reported to be involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. However, whether β-arrestin-2 affects the pathogenesis of hepatic IRI remains unknown. The goal of the present study was to determine whether ARRB2 protects against hepatic IR injury and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. To this end, 70% hepatic IR models were established in ARRB2 knockdown mice and wild-type littermates, with blood and liver samples collected at 1, 6 and 12 h after reperfusion to evaluate liver injury. The effect of ARBB2 on PI3K/Akt signaling during IR injury was evaluated in vivo, and PI3K/Akt pathway regulation by ARRB2 was further assessed in vitro. Our results showed that ARRB2 knockdown aggravates hepatic IR injury by promoting the apoptosis of hepatocytes and inhibiting their proliferation. In addition, ARRB2 deficiency inhibited PI3K/Akt pathway activation, while the administration of the PI3K/Akt inhibitor PX866 resulted in severe IR injury in mice. Furthermore, the liver-protecting effect of ARRB2 was shown to depend on PI3K/Akt pathway activation. In summary, our results suggest that β-Arrestin-2 protects against hepatic IRI by activating PI3K/Akt signaling, which may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for treating liver ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
The hyper-activation of the phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase signaling pathway is a hallmark of many cancers and overgrowth syndromes, and as a result, there has been intense interest in the development of drugs that target the various isoforms of PI 3-kinase. Given the key role PI 3-kinases play in many normal cell functions, there is significant potential for the disruption of essential cellular functions by PI 3-kinase inhibitors in normal tissues; so-called on-target drug toxicity. It is, therefore, no surprise that progress within the clinical development of PI 3-kinase inhibitors as single-agent anti-cancer therapies has been slowed by the difficulty of identifying a therapeutic window. The aim of this review is to place the cellular, tissue and whole-body effects of PI 3-kinase inhibition in the context of understanding the potential for dose limiting on-target toxicities and to introduce possible strategies to overcome these.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) family includes eight distinct catalytic subunits and seven regulatory subunits. Only two PI3Ks are directly regulated downstream from G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs): the class I enzymes PI3Kβ and PI3Kγ. Both enzymes produce phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisposphate in vivo and are regulated by both heterotrimeric G proteins and small GTPases from the Ras or Rho families. However, PI3Kβ is also regulated by direct interactions with receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and their tyrosine phosphorylated substrates, and similar to the class II and III PI3Ks, it binds activated Rab5. The unusually complex regulation of PI3Kβ by small and trimeric G proteins and RTKs leads to a rich landscape of signaling responses at the cellular and organismic levels. This review focuses first on the regulation of PI3Kβ activity in vitro and in cells, and then summarizes the biology of PI3Kβ signaling in distinct tissues and in human disease.

Glucose‑stimulated insulin secretion and pancreatic β cell proliferation are essential in the control of metabolic disorder, however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. The present study investigated the function of miR‑152 in diabetes. The results of reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction demonstrated that miR‑152 levels in the blood were markedly reduced in patients with diabetes compared with nondiabetic controls. In addition, a high blood glucose concentration was significantly associated with reduced miR‑152 expression. Furthermore, overexpression of miR‑152 using miR‑152 mimics promoted the proliferation of INS‑1 and MIN6 cells, as determined by an MTT assay, in addition to insulin secretion, while knockdown of miR‑152 using an inhibitor led to the opposite effects. Phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K) signaling has been reported to inhibit insulin secretion, however, the regulation of PI3K in the pancreatic β cell is poorly understood. The present study identified that PI3K catalytic subunit α (PI3Kα) was a direct target gene of miR‑152 using a luciferase reporter assay, and miR‑152 inhibited the expression of PI3Kα at the protein level, which was determined by western blotting. Therefore, the regulation of insulin secretion and pancreatic β cell proliferation may occur via the miR‑152/PI3Kα axis. The overexpression of PI3Kα in INS‑1 and MIN6 cells partially reduced the effects of miR‑152 overexpression on insulin secretion. Consistently, PI3Kα levels were reduced in murine pancreatic islets following treatment with 20 mM glucose, and increased in blood samples from patients with diabetes compared with healthy individuals. In conclusion, the results of the present study demonstrate that miR‑152 may have an important role in pancreatic β cell function, and established an association between miR‑152 and the PI3Kα axis. Therefore, targeting PI3Kα may be a potential therapeutic option for diabetes.

Abstract
A maternal high-fat, high-sucrose (HFS) diet alters offspring glucose and lipid homoeostasis through unknown mechanisms and may be modulated by folic acid. We investigated the effect of a maternal HFS diet on glucose homoeostasis, expression of genes and proteins associated with insulin signalling and lipid metabolism and the effect of prenatal folic acid supplementation (HFS/F) in male rat offspring. Pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly fed control (CON), HFS or HFS/F diets. Offspring were weaned on CON; at postnatal day 70, fasting plasma insulin and glucose and liver and skeletal muscle gene and protein expression were measured. Treatment effects were assessed by one-way ANOVA. Maternal HFS diet induced higher fasting glucose in offspring v. HFS/F (P=0·027) and down-regulation (P<0·05) of genes coding for v-Akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 2, resistin and v-Raf-1 murine leukaemia viral oncogene homolog 1 (Raf1) in offspring skeletal muscle and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acaca), fatty acid synthase and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate 3-kinase, catalytic subunit β in offspring liver. Skeletal muscle neuropeptide Y and hepatic Kruppel-like factor 10 were up-regulated in HFS v. CON offspring (P<0·05). Compared with CON, Acaca and Raf1 protein expression levels were significantly lower in HFS offspring. Maternal HFS induced higher homoeostasis model of assessment index of insulin resistance v. CON (P=0·030) and HFS/F was associated with higher insulin (P=0·016) and lower glucose (P=0·025). Maternal HFS diet alters offspring insulin sensitivity and de novo hepatic lipogenesis via altered gene and protein expression, which appears to be potentiated by folate supplementation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase (PI3K) signalling in the endocrine pancreas contributes to glycaemic control. However, the mechanism by which PI3K modulates insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cell is poorly understood. Thus, our objective was two-fold; to determine the signalling pathway by which acute PI3K inhibition enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and to examine the role of this pathway in islets from type-2 diabetic (T2D) donors. METHODS Isolated islets from mice and non-diabetic or T2D human donors, or INS 832/13 cells, were treated with inhibitors of PI3K and/or phosphodiesterases (PDEs). The expression of PI3K-C2β was knocked down using siRNA. We measured insulin release, single-cell exocytosis, intracellular Ca(2+) responses ([Ca(2+)]i) and Ca(2+) channel currents, intracellular cAMP concentrations ([cAMP]i), and activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase B (PKB/AKT). RESULTS The non-specific PI3K inhibitor wortmannin amplifies GSIS, raises [cAMP]i and activates PKA, but is without effect in T2D islets. Direct inhibition of specific PDE isoforms demonstrates a role for PDE3 (in humans and mice) and PDE8 (in mice) downstream of PI3K, and restores glucose-responsiveness of T2D islets. We implicate a role for the Class II PI3K catalytic isoform PI3K-C2β in this effect by limiting beta cell exocytosis. CONCLUSIONS PI3K limits GSIS via PDE3 in human islets. While inhibition of p110α or PIK-C2β signalling per se, may promote nutrient-stimulated insulin release, we now suggest that this signalling pathway is perturbed in islets from T2D donors.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is a complex disease. It results from a failure of the body to maintain energy homoeostasis. Multicellular organisms have evolved complex strategies to preserve a relatively stable internal nutrient environment, despite fluctuations in external nutrient availability. This complex strategy involves the co-ordinated responses of multiple organs to promote storage or mobilization of energy sources according to the availability of nutrients and cellular bioenergetics needs. The endocrine pancreas plays a central role in these processes by secreting insulin and glucagon. When this co-ordinated effort fails, hyperglycaemia and hyperlipidaemia develops, characterizing a state of metabolic imbalance and ultimately overt diabetes. Although diabetes is most likely a collection of diseases, scientists are starting to identify genetic components and environmental triggers. Genome-wide association studies revealed that by and large, gene variants associated with type 2 diabetes are implicated in pancreatic β-cell function, suggesting that the β-cell may be the weakest link in the chain of events that results in diabetes. Thus, it is critical to understand how environmental cues affect the β-cell. Phosphoinositides are important 'decoders' of environmental cues. As such, these lipids have been implicated in cellular responses to a wide range of growth factors, hormones, stress agents, nutrients and metabolites. Here we will review some of the well-established and potential new roles for phosphoinositides in β-cell function/dysfunction and discuss how our knowledge of phosphoinositide signalling could aid in the identification of potential strategies for treating or preventing type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
In goldfish, 2 endogenous GnRH isoforms, GnRH2 and GnRH3, are released at the pituitary and directly stimulate LH and GH release using the same population of GnRH receptors (GnRHRs) but with GnRH-specific transduction mechanisms. Previously, we have shown that phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) mediate GnRH2- and GnRH3-stimulated LH and GH release. Among the 3 classes of PI3Ks, class I PI3Ks are the best characterized and consist of 4 110-kDa catalytic isoforms (p110α, p110β, p110γ, and p110δ). Importantly, p110β and p110γ, but not p110α or p110δ, can be directly activated by the Gβγ heterodimer of Gαβγ protein complexes. In the present study, we examined the expression of class I PI3K isoforms and the effects of selective inhibitors of p110α, p110β, p110γ, and p110δ catalytic activity on basal, as well as acute, GnRH2- and GnRH3-stimulated LH and GH release responses using primary cultures of dispersed goldfish pituitary cells in column perifusion. Results demonstrate that p110γ and p110δ are involved in the control of basal LH and GH release, whereas p110α and p110β only regulate basal LH secretion. However, p110β and p110γ both participated in GnRH3- and GnRH2-stimulated GH release, whereas p110β and p110γ mediated GnRH2- and GnRH3-induced LH release responses, respectively. GnRH2- and GnRH3-stimulated LH release, as well as GnRH3-elicited GH release, also required p110δ. These results constitute the first evidence for the differential involvement of class I PI3K catalytic subunits in GnRH actions, in general, and suggest that GnRH2 and GnRH3 binding to GnRHRs can bias the activation of class I PI3K signaling to mediate hormone release responses in 2 distinct pituitary cell types. The involvement of both class IA and IB PI3Ks implicates Gβγ subunits, as well as other known regulators of class I PI3Ks, as important components of GnRHR-mediated responses that could influence GnRH-selective signaling in other cell types.

Abstract
Mutations in PIK3CA, the gene encoding the p110α catalytic subunit of PI3K, are among the most common mutations found in human cancer and have also recently been implicated in a range of overgrowth syndromes in humans. We have used a novel inducible "exon-switch" approach to knock in the constitutively active Pik3ca(H1047R) mutation into the endogenous Pik3ca gene of the mouse. Ubiquitous expression of the Pik3ca(H1047R) mutation throughout the body resulted in a dramatic increase in body weight within 3 weeks of induction (mutant 150 ± 5%; wild-type 117 ± 3%, mean ± sem), which was associated with increased organ size rather than adiposity. Severe metabolic effects, including a reduction in blood glucose levels to 59 ± 4% of baseline (11 days postinduction) and undetectable insulin levels, were also observed. Pik3ca(H1047R) mutant mice died earlier (median survival 46.5 d post-mutation induction) than wild-type control mice (100% survival > 250 days). Although deletion of Akt2 increased median survival by 44%, neither organ overgrowth, nor hypoglycemia were rescued, indicating that both the growth and metabolic functions of constitutive PI3K activity can be Akt2 independent. This mouse model demonstrates the critical role of PI3K in the regulation of both organ size and glucose metabolism at the whole animal level.

Abstract
PI3Kγ, a G-protein-coupled type 1B phosphoinositol 3-kinase, exhibits a basal glucose-independent activity in β-cells and can be activated by the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). We therefore investigated the role of the PI3Kγ catalytic subunit (p110γ) in insulin secretion and β-cell exocytosis stimulated by GIP. We inhibited p110γ with AS604850 (1 μmol/liter) or knocked it down using an shRNA adenovirus or siRNA duplex in mouse and human islets and β-cells. Inhibition of PI3Kγ blunted the exocytotic and insulinotropic response to GIP receptor activation, whereas responses to the glucagon-like peptide-1 or the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist exendin-4 were unchanged. Downstream, we find that GIP, much like glucose stimulation, activates the small GTPase protein Rac1 to induce actin remodeling. Inhibition of PI3Kγ blocked these effects of GIP. Although exendin-4 could also stimulate actin remodeling, this was not prevented by p110γ inhibition. Finally, forced actin depolymerization with latrunculin B restored the exocytotic and secretory responses to GIP during PI3Kγ inhibition, demonstrating that the loss of GIP-induced actin depolymerization was indeed limiting insulin exocytosis.

Abstract
BLX-1002 is a novel thiazolidinedione with no peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activity that has been shown to improve glycemia in type 2 diabetes without weight gain. We previously found that BLX-1002 selectively augments glucose-sensitive (but not basal) insulin secretion in normal mouse β-cells. We have now extended these observations to other insulin secretagogues and to diabetic rat islets. To this end, dynamics of insulin secretion stimulated by glucose, GLP-1, and the sulfonylurea tolbutamide were examined in pancreatic islets from nondiabetic Wistar and type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizaki rats ex vivo. BLX-1002 restored normal glucose-sensitive insulin secretion in otherwise "glucose-blind" islets from GK rats, but did not affect basal or glucose-stimulated secretion in normal Wistar rat islets. The stimulatory effect of BLX-1002 on insulin secretion at high glucose required Ca(2+) and involved phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity. Consistent with its effects on insulin secretion, BLX-1002 also augmented insulin secretion and cytoplasmic-free Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)]i) stimulated by high glucose, GLP-1, and tolbutamide in islets from GK, but not Wistar, rats. The inactive analog BLX-1237 had no effects. In conclusion, our findings suggest that BLX-1002 potentiates insulin secretion by different stimuli in diabetic β-cells only, in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner and involving PI3K.
