Abstract
Context Bariatric surgery has been shown to be effective in inducing complete remission of type 2 diabetes in adults with obesity. However, its efficacy in achieving complete diabetes remission remains variable and difficult to predict before surgery. Objective We aimed to characterize bariatric surgery-induced transcriptome changes associated with diabetes remission and the predictive role of the baseline transcriptome. Methods We performed a whole-genome microarray in peripheral mononuclear cells at baseline (before surgery) and 2 and 12 months after bariatric surgery in a prospective cohort of 26 adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes. We applied machine learning to the baseline transcriptome to identify genes that predict metabolic outcomes. We validated the microarray expression profile using a real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results Sixteen patients entered diabetes remission at 12 months and 10 did not. The gene-expression analysis showed similarities and differences between responders and nonresponders. The difference included the expression of critical genes (SKT4, SIRT1, and TNF superfamily), metabolic and signaling pathways (Hippo, Sirtuin, ARE-mediated messenger RNA degradation, MSP-RON, and Huntington), and predicted biological functions (β-cell growth and proliferation, insulin and glucose metabolism, energy balance, inflammation, and neurodegeneration). Modeling the baseline transcriptome identified 10 genes that could hypothetically predict the metabolic outcome before bariatric surgery. Conclusion The changes in the transcriptome after bariatric surgery distinguish patients in whom diabetes enters complete remission from those who do not. The baseline transcriptome can contribute to the prediction of bariatric surgery-induced diabetes remission preoperatively.

Abstract
Post-translational modification (PTM) has a significant impact on cellular signaling and function regulation. In pancreatic β cells, PTMs are involved in insulin secretion, cell development, and viability. The dysregulation of PTM in β cells is clinically associated with the development of diabetes mellitus. Here, we summarized current findings on major PTMs occurring in β cells and their roles in insulin secretion. Our work provides comprehensive insight into understanding the mechanisms of insulin secretion and potential therapeutic targets for diabetes from the perspective of protein PTMs.

Abstract
As one of the most widespread chronic diseases, diabetes and its accompanying complications affect approximately one tenth of individuals worldwide and represent a growing cause of morbidity and mortality. Accumulating evidence has proven that the process of diabetes is complex and interactive, involving various cellular responses and signaling cascades by posttranslational modifications (PTMs). Therefore, understanding the mechanisms and functions of PTMs in regulatory networks has fundamental importance for understanding the prediction, onset, diagnosis, progression, and treatment of diabetes. In this review, we offer a holistic summary and illustration of the crosstalk between PTMs and diabetes, including both types 1 and 2. Meanwhile, we discuss the potential use of PTMs in diabetes treatment and provide a prospective direction for deeply understanding the metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) are membrane-associated trafficking proteins that confer identity to lipid membranes and facilitate membrane fusion. These functions are achieved through the complexing of Q-SNAREs with a specific cognate target R-SNARE, leading to the fusion of their associated membranes. These SNARE complexes then dissociate so that the Q-SNAREs and R-SNAREs can repeat this cycle. Whilst the basic function of SNAREs has been long appreciated, it is becoming increasingly clear that the cell can control the localisation and function of SNARE proteins through posttranslational modifications (PTMs), such as phosphorylation and ubiquitylation. Whilst numerous proteomic methods have shown that SNARE proteins are subject to these modifications, little is known about how these modifications regulate SNARE function. However, it is clear that these PTMs provide cells with an incredible functional plasticity; SNARE PTMs enable cells to respond to an ever-changing extracellular environment through the rerouting of membrane traffic. In this Review, we summarise key findings regarding SNARE regulation by PTMs and discuss how these modifications reprogramme membrane trafficking pathways.

Abstract
Insulin-secreting β-cells in the pancreatic islets are exposed to various endogenous and exogenous stressing conditions, which may lead to β-cell dysfunction or apoptosis and ultimately to diabetes mellitus. However, the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying β-cell's inability to survive under severe stresses remain to be explored. This study used two common chemical stressors, thapsigargin and rotenone, to induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria stress in a rat insuloma INS-1 832/13 β-cell line, mimicking the conditions experienced by dysfunctional β-cells. Proteomic changes of cells upon treatment with stressors at IC50 were profiled with TMT-based quantitative proteomics and further verified using label-free quantitive proteomics. The differentially expressed proteins under stress conditions were selected for in-depth bioinformatic analysis. Thapsigargin treatment specifically perturbed unfolded protein response (UPR) related pathways; in addition, 58 proteins not previously linked to the UPR related pathways were identified with consistent upregulation under stress induced by thapsigargin. Conversely, rotenone treatment resulted in significant proteome changes in key mitochondria regulatory pathways such as fatty acid β-oxidation, cellular respiration, citric acid cycle, and respiratory electron transport. Our data also demonstrated that both stressors increased reactive oxygen species production and depleted adenosine triphosphate synthesis, resulting in significant dysregulation of oxidative phosphorylation signaling pathways. These novel dysregulated proteins may suggest an alternative mechanism of action in β-cell dysfunction and provide potential targets for probing ER- and mitochondria stress-induced β-cell death.

Abstract
Pancreatic islet β-cells exhibit tremendous plasticity for secretory adaptations that coordinate insulin production and release with nutritional demands. This essential feature of the β-cell can allow for compensatory changes that increase secretory output to overcome insulin resistance early in Type 2 diabetes (T2D). Nutrient-stimulated increases in proinsulin biosynthesis may initiate this β-cell adaptive compensation; however, the molecular regulators of secretory expansion that accommodate the increased biosynthetic burden of packaging and producing additional insulin granules, such as enhanced ER and Golgi functions, remain poorly defined. As these adaptive mechanisms fail and T2D progresses, the β-cell succumbs to metabolic defects resulting in alterations to glucose metabolism and a decline in nutrient-regulated secretory functions, including impaired proinsulin processing and a deficit in mature insulin-containing secretory granules. In this review, we will discuss how the adaptative plasticity of the pancreatic islet β-cell's secretory program allows insulin production to be carefully matched with nutrient availability and peripheral cues for insulin signaling. Furthermore, we will highlight potential defects in the secretory pathway that limit or delay insulin granule biosynthesis, which may contribute to the decline in β-cell function during the pathogenesis of T2D.

Abstract
Diabetes is a systemic disease, and its progression involves multiple organ dysfunction. However, the exact mechanisms underlying pathological progression remain unclear. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) mediate physiological and pathological signaling communication between organs and have been shown to have important regulatory roles in diabetes and its complications in recent years. In particular, the majority of studies in the diabetes-related research field have focused on the noncoding RNAs carried by sEVs. Researchers found that noncoding RNA sorting into sEVs is not random but selective. Both tissue origin differences and environmental variations affect the cargo of sEVs. In addition, the function of sEVs differs according to the tissue they derive from; for example, sEVs derived from adipose tissue regulate insulin sensitivity in the periphery, while sEVs derived from bone marrow promote β-cell regeneration. Therefore, understanding the roles of sEVs from different tissues is important for elucidating their molecular mechanisms and is necessary for the application of sEVs as therapeutic agents for diabetes treatment in the future. In this review, we summarized current studies on the mechanisms of noncoding RNA sorting into sEVs, as well as the research progress on the effects of sEVs from different tissue origins and noncoding RNAs in diabetes and diabetic complications. The knowledge of noncoding RNAs in sEVs will help us better understand the role of sEVs in the diabetes progression.

Abstract
Pancreatic β cells dedicate much of their protein translation capacity to producing insulin to maintain glucose homeostasis. In response to increased secretory demand, β cells can compensate by increasing insulin production capability even in the face of protracted peripheral insulin resistance. The ability to amplify insulin secretion in response to hyperglycemia is a critical facet of β-cell function, and the exact mechanisms by which this occurs have been studied for decades. To adapt to the constant and fast-changing demands for insulin production, β cells use the unfolded protein response of the endoplasmic reticulum. Failure of these compensatory mechanisms contributes to both type 1 and 2 diabetes. Additionally, studies in which β cells are "rested" by reducing endogenous insulin demand have shown promise as a therapeutic strategy that could be applied more broadly. Here, we review recent findings in β cells pertaining to the metabolic amplifying pathway, the unfolded protein response, and potential advances in therapeutics based on β-cell rest.

Abstract
SUMOylation reduces oxidative stress and preserves islet mass at the expense of robust insulin secretion. To investigate a role for the deSUMOylating enzyme sentrin-specific protease 1 (SENP1) following metabolic stress, we put pancreas/gut-specific SENP1 knockout (pSENP1-KO) mice on a high-fat diet (HFD). Male pSENP1-KO mice were more glucose intolerant following HFD than littermate controls but only in response to oral glucose. A similar phenotype was observed in females. Plasma glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) responses were identical in pSENP1-KO and wild-type littermates, including the HFD-induced upregulation of GIP responses. Islet mass was not different, but insulin secretion and β-cell exocytotic responses to the GLP-1 receptor agonist exendin-4 (Ex4) and GIP were impaired in islets lacking SENP1. Glucagon secretion from pSENP1-KO islets was also reduced, so we generated β-cell-specific SENP1 KO mice. These phenocopied the pSENP1-KO mice with selective impairment in oral glucose tolerance following HFD, preserved islet mass expansion, and impaired β-cell exocytosis and insulin secretion to Ex4 and GIP without changes in cAMP or Ca2+ levels. Thus, β-cell SENP1 limits oral glucose intolerance following HFD by ensuring robust insulin secretion at a point downstream of incretin signaling.

Abstract
NR4A receptors, including NUR77 (NR4A1), NURR1 (NR4A2) and NOR-1 (NR4A3), form a family of nuclear receptors that act as transcription factors to regulate many physiological and pathological processes such as cell cycle and apoptosis, lipid metabolism, inflammation, carcinogenesis, vascular and neuronal functions. In the absence of known endogenous ligand modulating their physiological functions, the NR4A family remains a class of orphan receptors. However, several post-translational modifications (PTMs), including SUMOylation, have been shown to regulate the expression and/or activity of these receptors. Addition of Small Ubiquitin-like MOdifier (SUMO) proteins is a dynamic and reversible enzymatic process that regulates multiple essential functions of proteins, including nuclear receptors. This review aims at summarizing what is known about the impact of SUMOylation on NR4A family member transcriptional activities and physiological functions.

Abstract
Apparently, both a decrease in beta cell function and in beta cell mass contribute to the progressive worsening of type 2 diabetes. So, it is of particular interest to define factors which are relevant for the regulation of insulin secretion and at the same time for the maintenance of beta cell mass. The NADPH-thioredoxin system has a candidate role for such a dual function. Here, we have characterized the effects of a highly specific inhibitor of thioredoxin reductase, AM12, on the viability and function of insulin-secreting MIN6 cells and isolated NMRI mouse islets. Viability was checked by MTT testing and the fluorescent live-dead assay. Apoptosis was assessed by annexin V assay. Insulin secretion of perifused islets was measured by ELISA. The cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was measured by the Fura technique. Acute exposure of perifused pancreatic islets to 5 μM AM12 was without significant effect on insulin secretion. Islets cultured for 24 h in 0.5 or 5 μM AM12 showed unchanged basal secretion during perifusion, but the response to 30 mM glucose was significantly enhanced by 5 μM. Twenty-four-hour exposure to 5 μM AM12 proved to be without effect on the viability of MIN6 cells, whereas longer exposure was clearly toxic. Islets were more susceptible, showing initial signs of apoptosis after 24-h exposure to 5 μM AM12. The activity of the NADPH-thioredoxin system is indispensable for beta cell viability but may have a limiting effect on glucose-induced insulin secretion.
