Abstract
Amyloidosis forms a large family of pathologies associated with amyloid deposit generated by the formation of amyloid fibrils or plaques. The amyloidogenic proteins and peptides involved in these processes are targeted against almost all organs. In brain they are associated with neurodegenerative disease, and the Translocator Protein (TSPO), overexpressed in these inflammatory conditions, is one of the target for the diagnostic. Moreover, TSPO ligands have been described as promising therapeutic drugs for neurodegenerative diseases. Type 2 diabetes, another amyloidosis, is due to a beta cell mass decrease that has been linked to hIAPP (human islet amyloid polypeptide) fibril formation, leading to the reduction of insulin production. In the present study, in a first approach, we link overexpression of TSPO and inflammation in potentially prediabetic patients. In a second approach, we observed that TSPO deficient rats have higher level of insulin secretion in basal conditions and more IAPP fibrils formation compared with wild type animals. In a third approach, we show that diabetogenic conditions also increase TSPO overexpression and IAPP fibril formation in rat beta pancreatic cell line (INS-1E). These data open the way for further studies in the field of type 2 diabetes treatment or prevention.

Investigation of the effects of two major secretory granules components, insulin and zinc, on human-IAPP amyloid aggregation and membrane damage. Chem Phys Lipids 2021; 237:105083. [PMID: 33887213 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemphyslip.2021.105083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2020] [Revised: 03/11/2021] [Accepted: 04/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) is a highly amyloidogenic peptide found in pancreatic islets of type-2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Under certain conditions, hIAPP is able to form amyloid fibrils that play a role in the progression of T2D. hIAPP is synthesized in the β-cell of the pancreas and stored in the secretory granules before being released into the extracellular compartment. It has been suggested that natural stabilizing agents, such as insulin or zinc present in the secretory granules with hIAPP could prevent hIAPP fibril formation. The difference in the amino acid sequences of IAPP among species strongly correlates with amyloidogenicity and toxicity. The residue histidine at position 18 is known to be important in modulating the fibril formation, membrane leakage and toxicity. In this study, we have synthesized four analogues of hIAPP (H18R-IAPP, H18K-IAPP, H18A-IAPP and H18E-IAPP) and characterized their aggregation with either insulin or zinc in order to determine the effect of the residue-18 on the insulin-IAPP and zinc-IAPP interactions using a variety of biophysical experiments including thioflavin-T fluorescence, transmission electron microscopy imaging, circular dichroism, and NMR spectroscopy. We show that insulin reduced hIAPP fibril formation both in solution and in the presence of membrane and hIAPP-membrane damage and that the interactions are somewhat mediated by the residue-18. In addition, our results reveal that zinc affects the process of hIAPP fibril formation in solution but not in the presence of membrane. Our results indicate that the nature of the residue-18 is important for zinc binding. Based on this observation, we hypothesize that zinc binds to the residues in the N-terminal region of hIAPP, which is not accessible in the presence of membrane due to its strong interaction with lipids.
