Abstract
Anions such as Cl(-) and HCO3 (-) are well known to play an important role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). In this study, we demonstrate that glucose-induced Cl(-) efflux from β-cells is mediated by the Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channel anoctamin 1 (Ano1). Ano1 expression in rat β-cells is demonstrated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. Typical Ano1 currents are observed in whole-cell and inside-out patches in the presence of intracellular Ca(++): at 1 μM, the Cl(-) current is outwardly rectifying, and at 2 μM, it becomes almost linear. The relative permeabilities of monovalent anions are NO3 (-) (1.83 ± 0.10) > Br(-) (1.42 ± 0.07) > Cl(-) (1.0). A linear single-channel current-voltage relationship shows a conductance of 8.37 pS. These currents are nearly abolished by blocking Ano1 antibodies or by the inhibitors 2-(5-ethyl-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-ylthio)-N-(4-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (T-AO1) and tannic acid (TA). These inhibitors induce a strong decrease of 16.7-mM glucose-stimulated action potential rate (at least 87 % on dispersed cells) and a partial membrane repolarization with T-AO1. They abolish or strongly inhibit the GSIS increment at 8.3 mM and at 16.7 mM glucose. Blocking Ano1 antibodies also abolish the 16.7-mM GSIS increment. Combined treatment with bumetanide and acetazolamide in low Cl(-) and HCO3 (-) media provokes a 65 % reduction in action potential (AP) amplitude and a 15-mV AP peak repolarization. Although the mechanism triggering Ano1 opening remains to be established, the present data demonstrate that Ano1 is required to sustain glucose-stimulated membrane potential oscillations and insulin secretion.

Abstract
Anions such as Cl− and HCO3− are well known to play an important role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). In this study, we demonstrate that glucose-induced Cl− efflux from β-cells is mediated by the Ca2+-activated Cl− channel anoctamin 1 (Ano1). Ano1 expression in rat β-cells is demonstrated by reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. Typical Ano1 currents are observed in whole-cell and inside-out patches in the presence of intracellular Ca++: at 1 μM, the Cl− current is outwardly rectifying, and at 2 μM, it becomes almost linear. The relative permeabilities of monovalent anions are NO3− (1.83 ± 0.10) > Br− (1.42 ± 0.07) > Cl− (1.0). A linear single-channel current–voltage relationship shows a conductance of 8.37 pS.

Abstract
Sphingosine kinase (SPHK) catalyzes sphingosine 1-phosphate production, promoting cell survival and reducing apoptosis in isolated rat pancreatic islets. Glucose, the primary islet beta-cell growth factor and insulin secretagogue, increased islet SPHK activity by 3- to 5-fold following acute (1 h) or prolonged (7 days) stimulation. Prolonged stimulation of islets with glucose induced SPHK1a and SPHK2 mRNA levels; there were no changes in SPHK protein expression. To isolate the metabolic effects of glucose on SPHK activation, islets were stimulated with glucose analogs or metabolites. 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), an analog phosphorylated by glucokinase but not an effective energy source, activated SPHK similarly to glucose. In contrast, 3-o-methylglucose (3-oMeG), which is transported but neither phosphorylated nor metabolized, did not increase islet SPHK activity. Glyceraldehyde and alpha-ketoisocaproic acid (KIC), metabolites that stimulate glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, respectively, did not activate islet SPHK. Moreover, inorganic phosphate blocked glucose-induced SPHK activation. A role for SPHK activity in beta-cell growth was confirmed when small interfering (si)SPHK2 RNA transfection reduced rat insulinoma INS-1e cell SPHK levels and activity and cell growth. Glucose induced an early and sustained increase in islet SPHK activity that was dependent on glucose phosphorylation, but independent of ATP generation or new protein biosynthesis. Glucose-supported beta-cell growth appears to be in part mediated by SPHK activity.

Abstract
It is becoming increasingly apparent that beta cell dysfunction resulting in abnormal insulin secretion is the essential element in the progression of patients from a state of impaired glucose tolerance to frank type 2 diabetes (Del Prato, 2003; Del Prato and Tiengo, 2001). Although extensive studies have examined the molecular, cellular and physiologic mechanisms of insulin granule biogenesis, sorting, and exocytosis the precise mechanisms controlling these processes and their dysregulation in the developed of diabetes remains an area of important investigation. We now know that insulin biogenesis initiates with the synthesis of preproinsulin in rough endoplastic reticulum and conversion of preproinsulin to proinsulin. Proinsulin begins to be packaged in the Trans-Golgi Network and is sorting into immature secretory granules. These immature granules become acidic via ATP-dependent proton pump and proinsulin undergoes proteolytic cleavage resulting the formation of insulin and C-peptide. During the granule maturation process, insulin is crystallized with zinc and calcium in the form of dense-core granules and unwanted cargo and membrane proteins undergo selective retrograde trafficking to either the constitutive trafficking pathway for secretion or to degradative pathways. The newly formed mature dense-core insulin granules populate two different intracellular pools, the readily releasable pools (RRP) and the reserved pool. These two distinct populations are thought to be responsible for the biphasic nature of insulin release in which the RRP granules are associated with the plasma membrane and undergo an acute calcium-dependent release accounting for first phase insulin secretion. In contrast, second phase insulin secretion requires the trafficking of the reserved granule pool to the plasma membrane. The initial trigger for insulin granule fusion with the plasma membrane is a rise in intracellular calcium and in the case of glucose stimulation results from increased production of ATP, closure of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel and cellular depolarization. In turn, this opens voltage-dependent calcium channels allowing increased influx of extracellular calcium. Calcium is thought to bind to members of the fusion regulatory proteins synaptogamin that functionally repressors the fusion inhibitory protein complexin. Both complexin and synaptogamin interact as well as several other regulatory proteins interact with the core fusion machinery composed of the Q- or t-SNARE proteins syntaxin 1 and SNAP25 in the plasma membrane that assembles with the R- or v-SNARE protein VAMP2 in insulin granules. In this chapter we will review the current progress of insulin granule biogenesis, sorting, trafficking, exocytosis and signaling pathways that comprise the molecular basis of glucose-dependent insulin secretion.

Abstract
Mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), which contributes substantially to the regulation of normal mitochondrial metabolism, also plays a crucial role in the initiation of cell death. It is known that MPT is regulated in a tissue-specific manner. The importance of MPT in the pancreatic beta-cell is heightened by the fact that mitochondrial bioenergetics serve as the main glucose-sensing regulator and energy source for insulin secretion. In the present study, using MIN6 and INS-1 beta-cells, we revealed that both Ca(2+)-phosphate- and oxidant-induced MPT is remarkably different from other tissues. Ca(2+)-phosphate-induced transition is accompanied by a decline in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production related to a significant potential dependence of reactive oxygen species formation in beta-cell mitochondria. Hydroperoxides, which are indirect MPT co-inducers active in liver and heart mitochondria, are inefficient in beta-cell mitochondria, due to the low mitochondrial ability to metabolize them. Direct cross-linking of mitochondrial thiols in pancreatic beta-cells induces the opening of a low conductance ion permeability of the mitochondrial membrane instead of the full scale MPT opening typical for liver mitochondria. Low conductance MPT is independent of both endogenous and exogenous Ca(2+), suggesting a novel type of nonclassical MPT in beta-cells. It results in the conversion of electrical transmembrane potential into DeltapH instead of a decrease in total protonmotive force, thus mitochondrial respiration remains in a controlled state. Both Ca(2+)- and oxidant-induced MPTs are phosphate-dependent and, through the "phosphate flush" (associated with stimulation of insulin secretion), are expected to participate in the regulation in beta-cell glucose-sensing and secretory activity.

Abstract
Confluent monolayer cultures of betaTC3 cells were exposed for 4 h to acidic, neutral, or alkaline pH media. Studies determined the impact of pH on viability, insulin secretion rate, glucose consumption rate, lactate production rate, and ATP content. Cell viability was not affected by exposure to media of different pH (>95% for all groups). Insulin release from cells exposed to acidic media (pH of 6.4) was approximately 75% higher than that from cells exposed to either neutral (pH of 7.1) or alkaline (pH of 7.8) conditions. Conversely, ATP content was significantly reduced in cultures exposed to acidic conditions, although there was no statistical difference between neutral and alkaline conditions. Glucose consumption and lactate production rates increased linearly with increasing pH.

Abstract
Hypoxia is an adverse condition that can jeopardize the function of a bioartificial pancreatic construct. In this study we have investigated the effects of short-term hypoxic exposure (up to 24 h) on the bioenergetic status, metabolism, and insulin secretion of perfused pancreatic constructs composed of alginate/poly-L-lysine/alginate (APA) encapsulated mouse insulinoma betaTC3 cells. The bioenergetic status of the encapsulated cells was monitored noninvasively with the aid of 31P NMR spectroscopy, while glucose, lactate, and insulin concentrations were measured with off-line assays from media samples removed from the perfusion loop. Our results demonstrate that in freshly prepared constructs insulin secretion was not affected by the hypoxic conditions, although intracellular ATP concentration decreased and glucose consumption increased. Alternatively, in constructs that were maintained in our perfusion system for at least 10 days, identical hypoxic conditions resulted in a decreased insulin secretion concomitant to a decreased intracellular ATP concentration and increased glucose consumption. These results suggest that the effects of hypoxia on a transformed cell-based pancreatic construct are not constant throughout the duration of an in vitro culture. The observed differences are attributed to the significant cell growth and rearrangement that occurs with time during an in vitro culture of the constructs.

Abstract
Understanding the biochemical events associated with glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by pancreatic beta cells is of importance in gaining insight into both the pathophysiology of diabetes and the development of tissue-engineered bioartificial pancreatic substitutes. We have investigated the effects of glucose concentration on the bioenergetic status and on the metabolic and secretory functions exhibited by mouse insulinoma betaTC3 cells entrapped in calcium alginate/poly-L-lysine/alginate (APA) beads. Cells entrapped in APA beads constitute a possible implantable bioartificial pancreas for the long-term treatment of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Our results show that, in entrapped betaTC3 cells, the oxygen consumption rate and the intracellular nucleotide triphosphate levels are unaffected by a step change in glucose concentration from 16 mM to 0 mM for 4.5 h and then back to 16 mM. The intracellular Pi level and the ammonia production rate were doubled, while insulin secretion was decreased 10-fold, upon switching from 16 mM to 0 mM glucose. The implications of these findings in the context of pancreatic beta cell biochemistry and the mechanism of the 'Fuel Hypothesis' are discussed.
