Abstract
The dysfunction of pancreatic β-cells plays a central role in the onset and progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Insulin secretory defects in β-cells are characterized by a selective impairment of glucose stimulation, and a reduction in glucose-induced ATP production, which is essential for insulin secretion. High glucose metabolism for insulin secretion generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mitochondria. In addition, the expression of antioxidant enzymes is very low in β-cells. Therefore, β-cells are easily exposed to oxidative stress. In islet studies using a nonobese T2DM animal model that exhibits selective impairment of glucose-induced insulin secretion (GSIS), quenching ROS generated by glucose stimulation and accumulated under glucose toxicity can improve impaired GSIS. Acute ROS generation and toxicity cause glucose metabolism disorders through different molecular mechanisms. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a transcription factor, is a master regulator of antioxidant defense and a potential therapeutic target in oxidative stress-related diseases, suggesting the possible involvement of Nrf2 in β-cell dysfunction caused by ROS. In this review, we describe the mechanisms of insulin secretory defects induced by oxidative stress in diabetic β-cells.

Abstract
β-cell mass (BCM) is known to be decreased in subjects with type-2 diabetes (T2D). Quantitative analysis for BCM would be useful for understanding how T2D progresses and how BCM affects treatment efficacy and for earlier diagnosis of T2D and development of new therapeutic strategies. However, a noninvasive method to measure BCM has not yet been developed. We developed four 18F-labeled exendin(9-39) derivatives for β-cell imaging by PET: [18F]FB9-Ex(9-39), [18F]FB12-Ex(9-39), [18F]FB27-Ex(9-39), and [18F]FB40-Ex(9-39). Affinity to the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) was evaluated with dispersed islet cells of ddY mice. Uptake of exendin(9-39) derivatives in the pancreas as well as in other organs was evaluated by a biodistribution study. Small-animal PET study was performed after injecting [18F]FB40-Ex(9-39). FB40-Ex(9-39) showed moderate affinity to the GLP-1R. Among all of the derivatives, [18F]FB40-Ex(9-39) resulted in the highest uptake of radioactivity in the pancreas 30 min after injection. Moreover, it showed significantly less radioactivity accumulated in the liver and kidney, resulting in an overall increase in the pancreas-to-organ ratio. In the PET imaging study, pancreas was visualized at 30 min after injection of [18F]FB40-Ex(9-39). [18F]FB40-Ex(9-39) met the basic requirements for an imaging probe for GLP-1R in pancreatic β-cells. Further enhancement of pancreatic uptake and specific binding to GLP-1R will lead to a clear visualization of pancreatic β-cells.

Abstract
Aims/Introduction: β‐cell function was evaluated by homeostasis model assessment of β‐cell function (HOMA‐B) index, proinsulin:insulin and proinsulin:C‐peptide ratios in adult, Japanese type 2 diabetes patients receiving liraglutide. Materials and Methods: Data from two randomized, controlled clinical trials (A and B) including 664 Japanese type 2 diabetes patients (mean values: glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c] 8.61–9.32%; body mass index [BMI] 24.4–25.3 kg/m2) were analyzed. In two 24‐week trials, patients received liraglutide 0.9 mg (n = 268) or glibenclamide 2.5 mg (n = 132; trial A), or liraglutide 0.6, 0.9 mg (n = 176) or placebo (n = 88) added to previous sulfonylurea therapy (trial B). Results: Liraglutide was associated with improved glycemic control vs sulfonylurea monotherapy or placebo. In liraglutide‐treated groups in trials A and B, area under the curve (AUC) insulin 0–3 h was improved (P < 0.001 for all) and the AUCinsulin 0–3 h:AUCglucose 0–3 h ratio was increased (estimated treatment difference [liraglutide–comparator] 0.058 [0.036, 0.079]). HOMA‐B significantly increased with liraglutide relative to comparator in trial B (P < 0.05), but not in trial A. The reduction in fasting proinsulin:insulin ratio was 50% greater than in comparator groups. Conclusions: In Japanese type 2 diabetes patients, liraglutide was associated with effective glycemic control, restoration of prandial insulin response and indications of improved β‐cell function. This trial was registered with Clinicaltrials.gov (trial A: no. NCT00393718/JapicCTI‐060328 and trial B: no. NCT00395746/JapicCTI‐060324).

Abstract
Aims/Introduction To evaluate the efficacy and safety of alogliptin added to treatment with glimepiride. Materials and Methods This multicenter, randomized, double‐blind, parallel‐group, 24‐week (12‐week observation and 12‐week treatment) study compared alogliptin 12.5 or 25 mg in combination with glimepiride (1–4 mg/day) vs placebo added to glimepiride monotherapy in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes who had poor glycemic control despite treatment with diet and exercise plus a sulfonylurea. The primary end‐point was a change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline. A 40‐week open‐label extension study evaluated the long‐term safety and efficacy of the combination. Results Alogliptin 12.5 or 25 mg in combination with glimepiride significantly decreased HbA1c compared with glimepiride monotherapy after 12 weeks' treatment (−0.59, −0.65 and 0.35%, respectively; P < 0.0001 for both combination groups vs glimepiride monotherapy). Alogliptin 12.5 and 25 mg combination therapy was also associated with significantly higher responder rates (HbA1c <6.9%: 9.6% and 7.7%, HbA1c <7.4%: 29.8% and 34.6%) compared with glimepiride monotherapy (HbA1c <6.9%: 0%, HbA1c <7.4%: 3.9%). The incidence of adverse events was comparable between glimepiride monotherapy and alogliptin combination treatment, with most reported adverse events being mild in severity. In the extension study, the incidence of adverse events was comparable between the combination groups, with the majority of adverse events being mild. Conclusions Once‐daily alogliptin was effective and generally well tolerated when given as add‐on therapy to glimepiride in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes who had inadequate glycemic control on sulfonylurea plus lifestyle measures. Clinical benefits were maintained for 52 weeks. This trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (double‐blind study no. NCT01318083; long‐term study no. NCT01318135).

Abstract
ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channel subunits were investigated in rat submandibular gland (SMG). RT-PCR detected the presence of mRNA transcripts of the Kir6.1, Kir6.2, SUR2A, and SUR2B in the SMG, whereas SUR1 mRNA was barely detected. Western blot analysis provided the evidence that these four K(ATP) channel subunits are expressed in rat SMG. Immunostaining detected that these four K(ATP) channel subunits are widely distributed, with different intensities, in myoepithelial cells, epithelial cells of intercalated ducts, granular convoluted tubules, striated ducts, and excretory ducts. Immunofluorescence double staining showed that Kir6.1 and Kir6.2 colocalized with SUR2A in the myoepithelial cells, granular convoluted tubules, striated ducts, and excretory ducts. Kir6.1 and Kir6.2 also colocalized with SUR2B, mainly in the duct system, e.g., the granular convoluted tubules, striated ducts, and excretory ducts. Taken together, these results indicate that the K(ATP) channels in SMG may consist of Kir6.1, Kir6.2, SUR2A, and SUR2B, with various combinations of colocalization with each other, and may play important roles in rat SMG during salivary secretion.

Abstract
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) is an incretin that potentiates insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells by binding to GIP receptor (GIPR) and subsequently increasing the level of intracellular adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP). We have identified a novel GIPR splice variant in mouse beta-cells that retains intron 8, resulting in a COOH-terminal truncated form (truncated GIPR). This isoform was coexpressed with full-length GIPR (wild-type GIPR) in normal GIPR-expressing tissues. In an experiment using cells transfected with both GIPRs, truncated GIPR did not lead to cAMP production induced by GIP but inhibited GIP-induced cAMP production through wild-type GIPR (n = 3-4, P < 0.05). Wild-type GIPR was normally located on the cell surface, but its expression was decreased in the presence of truncated GIPR, suggesting a dominant negative effect of truncated GIPR against wild-type GIPR. The functional relevance of truncated GIPR in vivo was investigated. In high-fat diet-fed obese mice (HFD mice), blood glucose levels were maintained by compensatory increased insulin secretion (n = 8, P < 0.05), and cAMP production (n = 6, P < 0.01) and insulin secretion (n = 10, P < 0.05) induced by GIP were significantly increased in isolated islets, suggesting hypersensitivity of the GIPR. Total GIPR mRNA expression was not increased in the islets of HFD mice, but the expression ratio of truncated GIPR to total GIPR was reduced by 32% compared with that of control mice (n = 6, P < 0.05). These results indicate that a relative reduction of truncated GIPR expression may be involved in hypersensitivity of GIPR and hyperinsulinemia in diet-induced obese mice.

Abstract
H2S is an important gasotransmitter, generated in mammalian cells from L-cysteine metabolism. As it stimulates K(ATP) channels in vascular smooth muscle cells, H2S may also function as an endogenous opener of K(ATP) channels in INS-1E cells, an insulin-secreting cell line. In the present study, K(ATP) channel currents in INS-1E cells were recorded using the whole-cell and single-channel recording configurations of the patch-clamp technique. K(ATP) channels in INS-1E cells have a single-channel conductance of 78 pS. These channels were activated by diazoxide and inhibited by gliclazide. ATP (3 mm) in the pipette solution inhibited K(ATP) channels in INS-1E cells. Significant amount of H2S was produced from INS-1E cells in which the expression of cystathinonie gamma-lyase (CSE) was confirmed. After INS-1E cells were transfected with CSE-targeted short interfering RNA (CSE-siRNA) or treated with DL-propargylglycine (PPG; 1-5 mm) to inhibit CSE, endogenous production of H2S was abolished. Increase in extracellular glucose concentration significantly decreased endogenous production of H2S in INS-1E cells, and increased insulin secretion. After transfection of INS-1E cells with adenovirus containing the CSE gene (Ad-CSE) to overexpress CSE, high glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was virtually abolished. Basal K(ATP) channel currents were significantly reduced after incubating INS-1E cells with a high glucose concentration (16 mm) or lowering endogenous H2S level by CSE-siRNA transfection. Under these conditions, exogenously applied H2S significantly increased whole-cell K(ATP) channel currents at concentrations equal to or lower than 100 microm. H2S (100 microm) markedly increased open probability by more than 2-fold of single K(ATP) channels (inside-out recording) in native INS-1E cells (n = 4, P < 0.05). Single-channel conductance and ATP sensitivity of K(ATP) channels were not changed by H2S. In conclusion, endogenous H2S production from INS-1E cells varies with in vivo conditions, which significantly affects insulin secretion from INS-1E cells. H2S stimulates K(ATP) channels in INS-1E cells, independent of activation of cytosolic second messengers, which may underlie H2S-inhibited insulin secretion from these cells. Interaction among H2S, glucose and the K(ATP) channel may constitute an important and novel mechanism for the fine control of insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells.

Abstract
1. Cibenzoline, (+/-)-2-(2,2-diphenylcyclopropyl-2-imidazoline succinate, has been clinically used as one of the Class I type antiarrhythmic agents and also reported to block ATP-sensitive K(+) channels in excised membranes from heart and pancreatic beta cells. In the present study, we investigated if this drug inhibited gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in vitro. 2. Cibenzoline inhibited H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity of permeabilized leaky hog gastric vesicles in a concentration-dependent manner (IC(50): 201 microM), whereas no effect was shown on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity of dog kidney (IC(50): >1000 microM). Similarly, cibenzoline inhibited H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity of HEK-293 cells (human embryonic kidney cell line) co-transfected with rabbit gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunit cDNAs (IC(50): 183 microM). 3. In leaky gastric vesicles, inhibition of H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity by cibenzoline was attenuated by the addition of K(+) (0.5 - 5 mM) in a concentration-dependent manner. The Lineweaver-Burk plot of the H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity shows that cibenzoline increases K(m) value for K(+) without affecting V(max), indicating that this drug inhibits H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity competitively with respect to K(+). 4. The inhibitory effect of H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity by cibenzoline with normal tight gastric vesicles did not significantly differ from that with permeabilized leaky gastric vesicles, indicating that this drug reacted to the ATPase from the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. 5. These findings suggest that cibenzoline is an inhibitor of gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase with a novel inhibition mechanism, which inhibits gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase by binding its K(+)-recognition site from the cytoplasmic side.

Abstract
In the rhythmic brain stem slice preparation, spontaneous respiratory activity is generated endogenously and can be recorded as output activity from hypoglossal XII rootlets. Here we combine these recordings with measurements of the intrinsic optical signal (IOS) of cells in the regions of the periambigual region and nucleus hypoglossus of the rhythmic slice preparation. The IOS, which reflects changes of infrared light transmittance and scattering, has been previously employed as an indirect sensor for activity-related changes in cell metabolism. The IOS is believed to be primarily caused by cell volume changes, but it has also been associated with other morphological changes such as dendritic beading during prolonged neuronal excitation or mitochondrial swelling. An increase of the extracellular K(+) concentration from 3 to 9 mM, as well as superfusion with hypotonic solution induced a marked increase of the IOS, whereas a decrease in extracellular K(+) or superfusion with hypertonic solution had the opposite effect. During tissue anoxia, elicited by superfusion of N(2)-gassed solution, the biphasic response of the respiratory activity was accompanied by a continuous rise in the IOS. On reoxygenation, the IOS returned to control levels. Cells located at the surface of the slice were observed to swell during periods of anoxia. The region of the nucleus hypoglossus exhibited faster and larger IOS changes than the periambigual region, which presumably reflects differences in sensitivities of these neurons to metabolic stress. To analyze the components of the hypoxic IOS response, we investigated the IOS after application of neurotransmitters known to be released in increasing amounts during hypoxia. Indeed, glutamate application induced an IOS increase, whereas adenosine slightly reduced the IOS. The IOS response to hypoxia was diminished after application of glutamate uptake blockers, indicating that glutamate contributes to the hypoxic IOS. Blockade of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase by ouabain did not provoke a hypoxia-like IOS change. The influences of K(ATP) channels were analyzed, because they contribute significantly to the modulation of neuronal excitability during hypoxia. IOS responses obtained during manipulation of K(ATP) channel activity could be explained only by implicating mitochondrial volume changes mediated by mitochondrial K(ATP) channels. In conclusion, the hypoxic IOS response can be interpreted as a result of cell and mitochondrial swelling. Cell swelling can be attributed to hypoxic release of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators and to inhibition of Na(+)/K(+)-pump activity.

Abstract
To study effects of Bcl-x(L) in the pancreatic beta-cell, two transgenic lines were produced using different forms of the rat insulin promoter. Bcl-x(L) expression in beta-cells was increased 2- to 3-fold in founder (Fd) 1 and over 10-fold in Fd 2 compared with littermate controls. After exposure to thapsigargin (10 microM for 48 h), losses of cell viability in islets of Fd 1 and Fd 2 Bcl-x(L) transgenic mice were significantly lower than in islets of wild-type mice. Unexpectedly, severe glucose intolerance was observed in Fd 2 but not Fd 1 Bcl-x(L) mice. Pancreatic insulin content and islet morphology were not different from control in either transgenic line. However, Fd 2 Bcl-x(L) islets had impaired insulin secretory and intracellular free Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)) responses to glucose and KCl. Furthermore, insulin and [Ca(2+)](i) responses to pyruvate methyl ester (PME) were similarly reduced as glucose in Fd 2 Bcl-x(L) islets. Consistent with a mitochondrial defect, glucose oxidation, but not glycolysis, was significantly lower in Fd 2 Bcl-x(L) islets than in wild-type islets. Glucose-, PME-, and alpha-ketoisocaproate-induced hyperpolarization of mitochondrial membrane potential, NAD(P)H, and ATP production were also significantly reduced in Fd 2 Bcl-x(L) islets. Thus, although Bcl-x(L) promotes beta-cell survival, high levels of expression of Bcl-x(L) result in reduced glucose-induced insulin secretion and hyperglycemia due to a defect in mitochondrial nutrient metabolism and signaling for insulin secretion.

Abstract
The sensitivity of K(ATP) channels to high-affinity block by sulfonylureas and to stimulation by K(+) channel openers and MgADP (PCOs) is conferred by the regulatory sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) subunit, whereas ATP inhibits the channel through interaction with the inward rectifier (Kir6.2) subunit. Phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) profoundly antagonized ATP inhibition of K(ATP) channels expressed from cloned Kir6.2+SUR1 subunits, but also abolished high affinity tolbutamide sensitivity. By stabilizing the open state of the channel, PIP(2) drives the channel away from closed state(s) that are preferentially affected by high affinity tolbutamide binding, thereby producing an apparent loss of high affinity tolbutamide inhibition. Mutant K(ATP) channels (Kir6. 2[DeltaN30] or Kir6.2[L164A], coexpressed with SUR1) also displayed an "uncoupled" phenotype with no high affinity tolbutamide block and with intrinsically higher open state stability. Conversely, Kir6. 2[R176A]+SUR1 channels, which have an intrinsically lower open state stability, displayed a greater high affinity fraction of tolbutamide block. In addition to antagonizing high-affinity block by tolbutamide, PIP(2) also altered the stimulatory action of the PCOs, diazoxide and MgADP. With time after PIP(2) application, PCO stimulation first increased, and then subsequently decreased, probably reflecting a common pathway for activation of the channel by stimulatory PCOs and PIP(2). The net effect of increasing open state stability, either by PIP(2) or mutagenesis, is an apparent "uncoupling" of the Kir6.2 subunit from the regulatory input of SUR1, an action that can be partially reversed by screening negative charges on the membrane with poly-L-lysine.
